Towing With Ford F-150 Lightning A "Huge Success," Owner Finds

Yes, just the other day we shared a video with you about a new Ford F-150 Lightning owner who had a terrible towing experience with the popular new electric pickup truck. We were already aware that most people can expect about a 50 percent hit on range while towing, so we weren't surprised by the owner's story.

With that said, the F-150 Lightning can be a solid tool for towing or a huge hassle, depending on your needs and expectations. If you need an efficient truck for daily use that can sometimes tow something locally or on a short road trip, an electric truck will likely work well for you. However, if you want a truck for towing heavy loads at highway speeds over long distances, you may not be ready for something like the F-150 Lightning, or you may have to be particularly careful about your choice of vehicle and configuration.
