We're not talking about a bug. We're talking about a worthless truck.Like any new platform, there are bugs to work out. I'm confident it will do well for Ford. People don't buy 1/2 ton pickups for heavy towing duty anyhow. Most of them do amazingly little work that a Golf couldn't do.

Tow No! The Ford F-150 Lightning Struggled in Our Towing Test
We towed 3100-, 5300-, and 7200-pound travel trailers with Ford’s electric truck and didn’t get very far from home.

Towing With Ford F-150 Lightning A "Total Disaster," Owner Finds
While towing a total of around 3,700 pounds in 55-degree Fahrenheit rainy weather, the Ford F-150 Lightning lost 90 miles of range during a 32-mile drive.

I'm fairly regualry towing between 10-14k lbs. Even if I decide to let my cummins sit and take the big block I can still manage to get over 200 miles on the front tank, averaging 9-10mpg. The f-150 with the extended range battery will make it 90 miles.... better yet, when I know I won't have to tow heavy, I'll take the expedition it gets a whopping 12mpg with 8k lbs behind it driving real nice. I'm perfectly in it tow capacity at that as well. I'll go all but 300 miles before needed to stop for fuel. Ev is great, I'm all for it, but it's not ready and it's not even a competitive to its ic cou teroarts when it come to anything that needs to do real work. A hybrid would have been a much better idea.....
