BK Ford is happy to welcome the all new all electric Ford F-150 Lightning to the family. The F-150 Lightning is the most innovative F-150 that Ford has ever built.
On June 23, 2022, the BK Ford team welcomed the Lightning to Waco with a kickoff event! At this event, we were able to demonstrate just a few of the new features of the Ford Lightning, including the Mega Power Frunk that we used as an ice chest to serve drinks. At the event, we were able to power disco lights and bake cookies off the tailgate! We showed off some of our fun power tools including a welder, the Lightning was able to power a welder (and used less power then the oven) while still baking cookies. It was such a fun afternoon getting to witness the options that are built into this Ford F-150!

If you’re new to learning about the Ford F-150 Lightning and have questions, here’s a little more information regarding America’s first fully electric truck:
The F-150 Lightning is the smartest, most innovative F-150 that Ford has ever built, with the freedom of a 10-kilowatt smart power plant on wheels, software updates that can make it even better over time and Built Ford Tough capability. It’s also the fastest-accelerating F-150 yet, with a 0-60 mph time in the mid-4-second range when equipped with an extended-range battery.
Aside from its speed and power, its towing capability is pretty remarkable as well. Onboard Scales use the truck’s sensors to estimate payload and tell customers how much they’re hauling so they can utilize the full capability of the truck and adjust their driving style as needed. And since payload can impact range, Onboard Scales is integrated with Intelligent Range to help ensure F-150 Lightning gives an accurate range estimate.
Let’s talk about the F-150 Lightning at home. Home charging is straightforward with Ford preferred installation provider Sunrun. Extended-range battery customers with an 80 amp Connected Charge Station Pro can get a full charge overnight on AC power with dual on-board chargers. Aside from your home powering your Lighting, your Lighting can actually power your home. The F-150 Lightning, together with a home integration system, can power a house during an outage for three days and in time will be able to offer power back to the grid.
At BK Ford, we’re pumped to have a Lightning here and be offering test drives this summer! Are you ready to experience better? Swing by BK to learn more about the Ford F-150 Lightning.
