Around here in Midwestern states, prices are generally a bit lower, around $45k for those same models. Just be vigilant about the vehicle’s history report, especially for EVs.

Wow, $50k? That’s steep! I thought the price would drop more than that considering the market trends.

Don’t be misled by the EV hype—supply is still catching up. If you’re willing to look at earlier models, you might score a better deal while still enjoying great features!
I agree with you about earlier models, but remember to consider the battery health too. You wouldn’t want that to become a major cost later on!
The technology is evolving quickly though. A 2021 might be a smarter choice if you can swing it budget-wise.
Speaking of budgets, have you thought about what features you really want? Higher trims come packed with options that could justify the price difference.
Absolutely! I would love heated seats and maybe the upgraded sound system. A used model with these features would be ideal for me.

That’s a critical question! Finding a balance between what you want and what you’re willing to pay is key.
Just remember to check warranty coverage too, especially for used EVs! Some models may still be under factory warranty, which can be a huge plus.

And don’t forget to factor in insurance costs! That can sneak up on you with a spacious truck like the F-150.
True! It’s almost like buying a used Ford is a game—price, trim, features, and insurance all play their parts! Anyone feel like we should start a betting pool on which year is the best deal?
I would bet on the 2021 models! Seems like the best value without missing out on too much luxury. Plus, a lightning bolt logo looks cool, haha!
That’s hilarious! But seriously, I think the market will shift in a year or two. It might be useful to wait if you can.
When looking at used Ford F-150 Lightning trucks, definitely check for battery health. Some owners have reported issues with range and degradation over time.

Great point! I’ve heard that some early models had charging issues, so make sure to test it out during your buying process.
I suggest looking into the warranty details for used F-150 Lightnings. It can give you peace of mind when considering these vehicles.

Overall, I found my Lightning reliable, but I did have to replace a few electrical components. Definitely check the electrical system carefully.
Absolutely, a good warranty can save you. Check if the previous owner utilized the service plan to ensure proper maintenance.
I’d also recommend seeking feedback from current owners on forums. Their user experiences can be invaluable.
The F-150 Lightning has a great reputation, but like any vehicle, it can have its quirks. Listening to firsthand experiences helps.
