This time last year, Nikki's first Ford F150 Lightning was written off after a low-speed impact with a light pole in extreme weather. Her replacement was another F150 Lighting Lariat - this time missing some of the features of the original model (and a slightly different paint finish) - but after one year and 10,000 miles, how is the truck faring? Was it a good buy? Has she any regrets? And what's next? 00:00 - Introduction 02:54 - 10,000 miles...
