I enjoyed listening to the interview in my Sauna last night. Jim was absolutely right about providing the adapter for free being the right move. Otherwise it's a slap to the face to everyone that bought into Fords early EVs.

https://www.reddit.com/r/F150Lightning/s/RdoDn7Nleh So this guy just got a $6000 insurance renewal because Ford sold his data to his insurance company without his consent or knowledge. I’m not a privacy freak. I realize we give it up every day, but it doesn’t usually cause us to lose our...

I suppose that acceleration is only certain models, right? I've heard that mentioned a lot.. but the RIvian Dual Motor which is the only one I would ever consider financially is actually rated at a 4.5 0-60 I believe? ..and our trucks are anywhere between 3.8 and 4.0 0-60... Our trucks are...

That's fantastic range in such a large/useful truck size. This this is just awesome. Wish more people realized what they're missing.

My wife said she'd divorce me if I brought a Rivian home. Lol!! She hates it for some reason. I think it looks good. The lightning is my 7th F150. Needless to say, I love the trucks. Got two little kids right now and it's the perfect size family mobile. Biggest jealously I have for the...

I understand not wanting to feel limited in feature use in an expensive truck. My wife was upset with me when I told her that her 78 degree temp the other day was killing my vibe! But.. I do have a long daily commute. I want to charge to 80% most days to protect the longevity of the battery...

Homelink has been slowly moved to more expensive trims on all vehicles for a while now. Tesla has removed it flat out. Reason is the company that licenses homelink tech to the car companies rips them off and charges and arm and a leg for that shitty garage door opener technology. It's a...

I've only had my truck a few weeks but I've already been experimenting a lot with the range. I've been determined to figure out how to hit EPA 320 range consistently. For me, I've figured it out. That damn heat is SO expensive. I have a 47 mile commute each way, with speeds up to 65 for about...

I always felt like the icons at the top were a little basic looking what they look like now ?

Fantastic break down and analysis.

So I have no data to back up what I said. You're absolutely right it may be an online mythology. But here's where.. I err to the side of caution. Lawsuits. In this Country, there are some extremely litigious people. This has a lot to do with what region of the country you're in, and what the...

I ended up with black. For me it was a little different because I have never owned a black truck so I thought it would be OK to give that color a try. I’ve always thought black looks good on vehicles, but it was a lot of work so avoided it. I will say in the short time I’ve had my truck. It has...

Just want to address a couple things mentioned in this thread. 1. the platinum’s range is reduced due to the larger wheels. This is well known thing for all EVs. On Tesla and Rivian websites you can see the vehicle range change based on every wheel you option. 2. running boards: personally...

I'm pumping an old thread, but as a recent lightning owner that traded in a 2021 f150, I couldn't quite put my finger on why I thought the lightning seemed more bland, or vanilla. I compared my own photos side by side and realized it was the character missing in and around the fenders. Also my...

Well I'm really glad you're explaining this. Before if I wasn't a customer before I sure ain't now. So using the expensive Sunrun option gets you 40A of capability but using the plug and play method of an old school generator switch gets you 30A of capability?

It's replacing the XLT though right?

I am new to the Lightning, so I am asking not telling. But everything I've read on this forum and others have stated using the HIS system the Lightning using the full 80A of the Ford Charge Pro station in reverse. So while 80A won't power some houses, many houses use less than 100A on a daily...

But the Lightning can power all that with the pricey system from SunRun. Right?

Biggest shocker from these pictures for me is realizing that the XLT and Lariat Lightning have the same looking interior dashboard/trim etc. My 2021 XLT did not have the same Lariat look on the inside.

I’ve only had my truck a few days and I’ve noticed a lot of things in the manual that seem wrong like that. I’m guessing the truck got a pretty major UI change recently? I agree 225. Seems like a steel for that feature and it was hard for me to find a truck with that option but I specifically...
