I think I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person. The Silverado EV photographs well but looks like a whale IRL. As well executed as it is, The F-150 Lighting just does *NOT* look good IRL or in pics. All that said, Ram certainly had and still do have their work cut out for them in what is definitely a come from behind effort. So far, the Rev' photographs better than its competition, so it has that going for it. The use of negative space is better than that in the GM and F-150 trucks. Also, the Rev hides the fact that it lacks (fully) retractable running boards better than those 2, who make it glaringly obvious.

> As well executed as it is, The F-150 Lighting just does *NOT* look good IRL or in pics. It's barely discernable from an ICE F-150. My main gripe with the Lightning is that the ground clearance and breakover angle are bad. Needs an adjustable height option like the Rivian.

Maybe not, but it's a truck with AWD. And, the rivian does off-road well
