Loving this photo of your Lightning and trailer setup! Thank you for sharing this moment with the community.

One of the main reasons I bought a 2022 was that there was no "bright" blue color available in 2023. My previous truck was a 2018 F-150 in the very similar Lightning blue (why they didn't offer that color on the Lightning is beyond me) and I loved the color. Antimatter blue might as well be black, to me. This truck is my daily driver/work truck and it still makes me smile every time I walk up to it.

Went to Lowes for fence lumber yesterday, needed six foot lengths due to pole spacing so I bought 12 foot lumber. Left the trailer at home and just cut it in half in the parking lot to fit into the Lightning's bed. Score one for pro power onboard! I couldn't find any XLT parking so I just parked in the Pro section. Why should they get their own parking anyway?

The truck also handled a pallet of 560 fence pickets, the onboard scales were showing that I was about 100lbs overweight but I didn't have any issues.

Love this idea! I never thought about just bringing my saw to the store & cutting the stock to the length that I need using the truck's power - cool! Thanks for this tip!

Also, I have the twin for your truck 🛻

Good God why did they cancel this color. These trucks are gorgeous.

Posted elsewhere, but SO blessed with my loaded Atlas Blue Lariat. Has *everything* (no scale/heated steering/bedcam/whatever deletes) and snuck in at $79.5k so got $10k in rebates for final price under $70k. ER, Max Tow, Spray in bedliner, and I added a SmartCap, Raceline 20s, Mickey Thompsons and the new eBay grille. FCSP on 100A circuit charging at 80A during time-of-use power at 4.1 cents/kWh. Costing me 1/18th as much in 'fuel'! Love this truck!

I do love the truck but... since I have you on the line it'd be nice if the FCSP charged my wife's Tesla with an adapter as the PDF here claims it will: https://www.ford.com/cmslibs/conten...ning/pdf/FordChargeStationPro-Specs_06_v2.pdf

"Compatible with all electric vehicles on
the market today (that are compliant with SAE J1772),
including Tesla with a commonly used adaptor"

but it won't... can you help please? I spent a lot installing the FCSP on a dedicated 100A circuit but it seems I will have to install another charger if Ford can't help me make this work...

Thanks in advance
Zaptor

Felt like Doc at the end of back to the future. Fat truck in a tiny charge cable. A charge too far. Etc.

This color isn't an option anymore I'm guessing?

Correct. A few colors for the Lightning were discontinued after 2022.
