Ford is banking on its 119 years of manufacturing and delivery experience, as well as its huge network of dealerships, to leapfrog its competitors in the race to bring electric trucks to the most people. Trucks are among the best-selling cars in the nation, with the F-150 being the best-selling vehicle in the United States for the previous 40 years.
California, the state with the greatest EV sales, and Texas, the truck capital of the United States, top the field in F-150 Lightning delivery. However, the carmaker said that deliveries to every state in the nation occurred naturally and without intervention, which may have the effect of dampening claims that Ford underestimated the popularity of the F-150 Lightning.
