Lightning XLT or Silverado LT ER?

I am here to be convinced to buy a 2025 Lightning XLT instead of a Silverado LT extended range. The Ford is about 12k more cheaper. Below is my reasoning. Please let me know what is right, and what is wrong. I'm truly on the fence.

Pros of the Ford
-Apple Car Play. This has been a bigger sticking point for my family than I thought. I've read a lot of bad things about the Utlifi system.
-Cheaper price.
-More established, more bugs worked out? I don't know if this is even true.

Pros of the Chevy
-Huge range. Roughly 50% more than the Ford. We do have a 2x a year trip that currently requires us to charge twice in our current EV that this car could do in one go.
-Faster charging time.
-Nicer trim and tech.

Is there anything I'm not considering? Is my reasoning right? Wrong? Thank you in advance.
