Road Test: 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning SuperCrew Pro 4X4

Clean Fleet Report

Up until now this meant hauling around a noisy, smelly, polluting diesel-powered generator that took up space in the bed. For the Lighting Pro, that means getting traditional gasoline and diesel truck owners to give it a try. In addition, we aim to offer reviews and news on advanced technology and the alternative fuel vehicle market.
