I'm leaning towards a Scout Terra. Timing would be good (2027 target) but the Lightning has devalued so much maybe I keep it and go with the Scout Traveler. Dunno--the Lightning is a great truck. I'm concerned with electronics more than drive train items like batteries. This happened yesterday...
A 220V extension cord that pulls off the 110V arms. That way I only had one cord into the house and then used 110 extensions in the house. My plan is to never need that option again. I am installing a generator transfer switch...someday...
I finished a trip towing a trailer down a 13 mile downhill stretch (a 2600 ft change in elevation) and I used regenerative braking almost the entire time. Does that engage the trailer brake controller? The brake lights comes on so I eventually just turned the gain way down just in case.
Here's today's adventure. I prelude with my angst towing some agriculture and household needs to Avery County, NC--another hard-hit area of NC. The trip is only 36 miles or so but 13 of it gains 2600 ft elevation. Well, my concerns were unfounded. I charged to 100%. Towed about 6000 pounds and...
My 2023 ER Lariat ran my large full-sized fridge and stand up model freezer and some misc small stuff like chargers and lamps for 4 days. I averaged 7% battery loss daily using the 220V (with 110 splitter) and 120V in the bed. My only complaint was leaving the truck "running" the whole time. I...
I hope the salesman recovers soon. I posted earlier about a similar incident I had a five months after getting my truck (https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/has-anyone-encountered-runaway-throttle.17638/page-3#post-356599). I backed into a parking spot. When I returned to pull out...
My 2023 Lariat was $78K last July (yes in hindsight I rushed it but at the time I was 2 years on the wait list). I got the $7500 fed money. I recently checked into a 2023 Platinum when I saw a couple dealers dropping their prices $20K. I was offered in the upper 30s at two different dealerships...
7 Months in and my 2023 already had two warranty repairs to electronics (wiper sensors and brake controller)--it spooked me into buying the warranty with the lights option too.
As I was about to send before I realized the 531 miles was very close with the 10K added back. It was just coincidence the technician left the screen on "Trip 1". Thanks.
Well, I planned to keep my Trip 1 un-reset for the duration for no real reason but my last service to replace my wiper module and brake controller module something happened. Dunno how but apparently I now am averaging less than 2 MPH. The KW Per Mile looks right, the hours look right, but the...
