2022 Ford F-150

A new recall from the Blue-Oval brand stems from a software error with the trailer brake control.

The Rattler off-road package is based on the F-150 XL and adds adventure-oriented appeal to the 2023 pickup’s entry-level model.

Extended-range versions of the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning XLT, Lariat and Pro will have 320 miles of range, according to the EPA, which exceeds the manufacturer’s initial targets.

For 2022, a total of 101 vehicles earned an IIHS Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick Plus award, which is up 12% over 2021, when 90 vehicles made the list.

Ford’s newcomers for 2022 include the all-electric Lightning version of the F-150, the all-new Maverick compact pickup and a Bronco Raptor performance off-roader.

The F-150 gets some new appearance and utility packages for 2022, as well as the new electric-powered F-150 Lightning, which should go on sale this spring.

Ford’s Intelligent Backup Power, in conjunction with an optional 80-amp charging station and additional equipment, can power a home for up to three days of estimated normal usage or 10 days of rationed usage.

Here are the new EVs going on sale for the 2022 model year. There may be some slippage in terms of availability, with some models even falling back to the 2023 model year if timing backs up.

We’ve powered a lot with the Pro Power Onboard generator system of our 2021 Ford F-150 Limited hybrid, and it was only a matter of time before we attempted to charge an EV with the truck itself. Is it possible?

There’s still a way to reserve the Lightning, and Ford is planning to nearly double its production capacity of the pickup truck to meet growing customer demand.
