"Ford CEO Takes Epic Road Trip in F-150 Lightning, While Family Abandons Electric Truck Due to Charging Issues"
A Canadian man who purchased a Ford F150 Lightning EV for $115,000 experienced frustration and disappointment with the electric truck during a family road trip to Chicago. He had to spend an additional $16,000 to install charging stations and upgrade his home's electric panel. On the road trip, he encountered issues with faulty charging stations and had to rely on a gas vehicle to complete the journey. The vehicle also spent six months in the shop for minor repairs, limiting its usability. The man believes the government should provide consumers with more accurate information about electric vehicles and urges others to do thorough research before making a purchase.
