Im going to assume you're just blinded by enthusiasm or high, but the facts say your wrong, my friend. Look at the total sales figures for F150's in 2025. They went DOWN by almost 10% and out of a whopping 555,704 F150, the Lightning sold only 19,077 (3.4% of all F150s sold).

Those are figures for Ford sales in the US so if "Lightnings were everywhere" then you must have bought a couple thousand yourself because there were only 19,000 sold in the US and we're about 1/10 the population. That would approximate 1900 Lightnings sold in Canada compared to 55,700 gas versions. Thats VERY poor sales - about 4 trucks per dealership in Canada. No dealer is going to train all his techs, invest in new expensive repair equipment and a bunch of unique parts just to sell 4 Lightnings a year.
