One thing Ford has always been famous for is something Henry Ford said back in the early days: “Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants, so long as it’s black.”
So, it’s no surprise that Ford would get in on the action by offering a vinyl-wrapped flat black version of the F-150 Lighting straight from the factory, and with a variety of special features to accompany it. Ford BlueCruise, version 1.2, enables hands-free highway driving with Lane Change Assist. This feature allows the driver to change lanes without manual intervention by simply tapping the turn signal when the path is clear. In-Lane Repositioning helps maintain the vehicle’s lane position while subtly moving away from adjacent vehicles.
In the truck’s bed, the Platinum Black features the most powerful version of Pro Power Onboard, offering 120V and 240V plugs that can be used to power job sites, campsites, or your house during power outages. Keyless entry systems, which allow drivers to unlock their cars remotely without using a physical key, were initially aftermarket accessories. Nowadays, they are commonly integrated into the design of new vehicles.
In recent decades, “murdering out” or doing a “blackout” on a car involved making as many things as possible black. In the aftermarket world, everything from smoked headlights and tail lights to covering up all contrasting or chrome trim in black to getting the darkest tint available led to some really cool looking custom cars, at least when done right.
