[b] [ATTACH=full]1704199[/ATTACH][/b] A silver Ford F-150 Lightning was parked alongside previous versions of the pickup.

"Simply put, this isn’t a gimmick. It’s a workhorse, not a show horse destined for a shiny garage filled with four other luxury cars. It’s not for never-nevers -- never tow, never haul – it’s for serious truck owners," Ford CEO Jim Farley has previously said. The F-150 Lightning does have a signature front end design with a full width LED light bar and blocked off grille.
