The price of the Ford F-150 Lighting is rising quicker than … lighting.
Ford has announced a $5,000 increase to the starting price for the Ford F-150 Lightning Pro, plus a $1,795 delivery fee that brings the total to $53,769.
The adjustment comes less than two months after Ford raised the pickup's price by $7,000 from $39,974 to $46,974 as part of a broader increase that affected all the truck's trim levels by different amounts.
Ford said the move was prompted by supply chain issues and inflation, Reuters reported.
