Park these two side-by-side, and it’s the GMC Sierra that looks more expensive. By contrast, the F-150 Lightning Platinum seems a bit more… ordinary.
is just as fine as you'll find in the GMC. The open-pore wood is the Ultimate's chief differentiating factor; too bad it throws a glare when the sun hits it just right. And the Sierra's single-pane sunroof looks like an aftermarket afterthought compared to the Ford's giant panoramic roof. We like the infotainment system's Google integration, but sound from the Bose stereo is disappointingly muddy.
Unfortunately for GMC, though, the F-150's dual-motor electric drivetrain has taught us to adjust our expectations upward—, leaping away from the lights in a way no internal-combustion truck can and racing to 60 in a mere four seconds flat—all in smooth, glorious, shift-free silence. If this truck's acceleration doesn't plaster a grin on your face, you clearly hate fun.
Handling-wise, the F-150 was the more enjoyable pickup to drive, and that's saying a lot. The Sierra has—by pickup truck standards, at least—great road manners, with responsive steering and brakes and excellent body control. This is one pickup you can actually push a bit in the turns. But the F-150, with its heavy battery pack slung under the body, feels that much more agile, a sensation emphasized by the immediacy of its power delivery.
