2022 Ford Lightning Discussion

Do you know if your dealer ship will offer/accept the Options plan on Ford approved vehicles?

No clue. I don’t even know what that is.

Options plan (to paraphrase) is a Lease option for the Mach-E and Lightning that gives the Leasee the ability to get the Federal EV Tax credit.  Normal lease Ford or the dealer (I am not sure which) gets the credit, not the Leasee.

I’ll ask the sales side tomorrow. I try to avoid them as much as possible.

Hahaaa  I think many people do. 

Sorry I messed up the quote chain, tried to trim it down and somehow got off by one.  Should be better now.

@lamrith

We accept that options plan you mentioned.

Does any dealership actually have a demo truck?

[lamrith]

Trucks have been deemed ok to sell based on what I have been seeing.  So Ford is supposed to be shipping now to dealers.  Not sure if that will just be demo/mannequin rigs, customer orders or both.  But soon they should be at dealers to drool on.

Based on videos from some owner events it sounds like they are heat governed like the MME and pull power after a certain amount of WOT.

I haven’t seen one yet.

I think this probably all stemmed from the Bronco cluster.
