Will Prowse of DIY Solar gives the Ford Lightning a run

[scottwstevenson]

Figured this would be of interest: Will attempts to test out the possibly of using a Ford Lightning as a way of muling electricity back to his home, which in our case would be a campsite.

I don't know to what extent his experience is typical (I can't imagine it happens all that often), but thought the vid would be of interest:


(I suspect he might have got a lemon, as the truck he picked up was sold used by a dealer...)

Interesting.

I haven't seen too many common problems with the Lightning, so far, and I follow it pretty closely. Of course, they've only been around for ~10 months, so not a lot of long-term results, yet. Mine's at ~3400 miles and no problems so far, but it shouldn't at that point, obviously!
