“One of the best things Ford could have done is making the F-150 Lightning look like an F-150,” Douglas said.
Price is the other driver. Used, the Lightning sells for 50% to 60% of its original sticker, and Douglas said the demand shows drivers want electric trucks as long as they aren’t too expensive.
