I know someone who really likes theirs. It's a decent truck.

As someone who at a time had preorders for both cyber truck and f150 lightning, and cancelled them in favor of a F150 powerboost with 6.5 bed, I’m not surprised the slightest.

They both underdelivered on range and capabilities. Lightning has only 5.5 bed. Cyber truck didn’t had published specs with bed size for very long time.

Honestly, if it weren’t Volkswagen and it had better range, I think that something like ID BUZZ would be the best for me (daily driver, occasional hauling + camping truck).

I too have a power boost. Very happy with it.

I want the same exact truck, but with a battery that’s 10x as big (which is still very small for a hybrid). I want a truck that will actually power my stuff without needing to cycle on every 15 minutes.

Having a 7.2kW (240V even!) generator in your truck sounds way more useful than an EV truck, I would go for the Powerboost every time.

I have ‘22 Lightning and it’s the best vehicle I have ever driven. The 50/50 weight distribution from the batteries makes it perform amazing in the snow. No need for sand bags in the winter. The linear acceleration curve with instant torque lets you merge like a car. The creature comforts are amazing. When I get into any gas vehicle now, even with good HP, it just doesn’t compare because of gear shifts and torque ramp up. I charge it at home overnight and it lasts 2 weeks just bumming around town before i have to charge again. In almost every category, it is better than my v8 f-150. Sure, if you tow a lot or drive long distances everyday, it can be annoying trying to find a level 3 charger along the way but if you’re driving less than 150 miles a day, you never need to stop, even when it’s cold.
