The cheapest version of the Lightning will now start at about $50,000, a roughly $10,000 cut.

            Oh, I don’t buy anything from a dealer, either. Just got a pickup for 4 grand. Got my sedan 11 years ago for 5 grand… fuck middlemen.

          I had to buy a car recently. The first five I wanted were sniped by the time I got to the dealership. I wound up having to pay 16k for a 9 year old car with 135k miles on it.

          Cars are bonkers across the board right now. I honestly wish I had gone with a smaller new car rather than this older SUV that has already cost me in repairs.

      All new cars are overpriced, but this price cut puts the Lightning as cheaper than a comparable gasser F150.

      It only comes in an AWD super crew, and includes the better tech package. To get a super crew CLT gasser in 4x4 is about 5k more expensive than the pro trim Lightning, and the Lightning has more features at the base model than the XLT gasser
