Ford F-150 Lightning EV joins the U.S. Forest Service



The electric-powered Ford F-150 Lightning has been drafted.

As part of a pilot study, a trio of Lightnings is the first step by the U.S. Forest Service to transition from internal-combustion-powered trucks to batteries.

Initially, the trucks are to audition in Pennsylvania’s Allegheny National Forest, Michigan’s Huron-Manistee National Forest, and the White Mountains National Forest in New Hampshire. The Forest Service is aiming to test how they’ll cope in remote areas and in extreme weather conditions.
