But based strictly on Ford's posted efficiency numbers and currect costs, driving an average Albertan distance:
F150 gas: 12L/100km @ 1.45/L = $17.40/100km
F150 lightning: 49kWh/100mi = 30.63kWh/100km @ 0.13/kWh = $3.98/100km
At an average of 20,000km/year that's a savings of $2684 per year

Interestingly, the 2023 Lightnings are so heavily discounted down here now that, similarly equipped, they come in up to nearly 10k less than gas ones.
Which is still way too rich for me, so I came home with a Maverick hybrid instead. Which I love for lots of reasons, including what looks 45+ miles per American gallon for the type of driving I do.
