Hi everyone, I’ve been thinking about getting an electric truck for a while now, and I think I found one that’s the right mix of what I want and what I can afford. I went to a Ford dealership and they offered me a Lightning Lariat for $59.8k, which is a big drop from the MSRP of $79.9k. This includes a $5k trade-in.
Is this a good deal or should I be worried that Ford is pushing these trucks out the door so quickly? Looking for some advice from those who’ve been around the block.
I don’t think you should worry at all. These trucks are amazing! I bought mine a few months ago and haven’t looked back. I’ve owned a lot of cars, including a 2019 Chevy Silverado LTZ and a Lexus RC 350. But when I tried the Lightning, I knew it was the right choice. I use BlueCruise on the highway all the time, and the auto-parking feature is a game changer. Even my friend with a Tesla said he wished he had bought the Lightning after he tried mine. That’s pretty high praise!
Sounds like a great deal! Don’t forget the savings on gas too.
I’d love to hear where. This is what I’m getting (not including the $7500 rebate) I’m netting about $7,500 on my trade in.
I just got a Lariat ER for $60k (taxes included) with no trade-in. I was looking at used ones, but the price on this new one was actually better.
Best vehicle I’ve ever had, you won’t regret it.
Does the price include the 7.5k EV credit?

Yes, it does!
All these deals are making me mad. I just spent $68k on a Lariat last month…

I love it! It’s my first EV and I’m really happy with it.
@Jory
Yeah, they’re kind of a fire sale right now… plus, 0% financing for 72 months.

That sounds about right. I got mine for just over $62k with an X-Plan discount. It’s been an awesome truck and has saved me nearly $1,000 in just a few months.
Do any of the Lariats come with Pro Power? I never see that mentioned, or is it because that would push it over $80k and affect the rebate?
That’s an insanely good deal. If you don’t take it, you’re passing up an amazing opportunity!
That’s an incredible deal. Ford made some bad predictions on EV truck demand, so they’re trying to move them fast. It’s more of a business mistake than a product issue—these trucks are fantastic.
What exactly is the X-Plan discount?

I’m not sure about the details, but I think it’s some sort of employee discount program. I had all the rebates combined into one line item.
@Maddox
Thanks for the info! I almost went for one a month ago, but we decided to wait. With the federal rebate possibly disappearing next year, we might go ahead now. It sounds like you got a great deal!
I got one yesterday with nearly $20k in discounts. It’s amazing!
