  1. Maintenance Questions

    I'm just crossing 12.5K myself, so only had one "service"...multipoint inspection and tire rotation. I'm just following the manual (same as I've done for every ICE vehicle I've ever had). There's not much to it with these trucks. :)
  2. Software Priority Update: 23-PU1024-6CH-AUD - Refined Audio

    Just got this update myself yesterday (applied at 1am today). 2023 Lightning Lariat, delivered October 2023
  3. Overheating Ford Mobile Charger

    I'm in the same boat as OP, started about a month ago when the temps started rising. Lightning is in an insulated but not temperature-controlled garage. Doesn't usually get past 80F in the garage, but had a couple hot days where it got up past 90F in there (and this is Oregon!). Last night I...
  4. OTA ECG-24.2.4.9 Software Distribution Enhancement

    Got the update yesterday, which was a nice surprise. Still hoping for the one that shows SOC on the left battery dial, but I'll take any updates I can get at this point. :)
  5. Charging as it should be at Tesla Magic Dock Supercharger

    So...you're currently in Greece, parked your truck at the airport on a Tesla L2 Destination Charger, and will leave it there the entire time you're away? Just making sure I understand. :D Edit: I just checked PDX, and they have the same thing: L2 charging stations available in all parking lots...
  6. Blocking Teslas at Superchargers?

    My A2Z has been flawless, I think you'll enjoy it! :)
  7. CSP-23B70 Certain 2022-23 F-150 Lightnings - BMS Sensor Replacement

    Getting this CSP addressed tomorrow along with my first service (10K miles). I've never had a LVB charge issue, it was at 92% the other day when I looked. Guess we'll see if I get more updates now as a result of this CSP fix. :)
  8. Road trip decision point EV or ICE (MN->WY)

    According to PlugShare, they don't seem to get a lot of traffic. You'd probably be ok, especially if you keep the Island Park DCFC as a backup. There are a whopping three L2 chargers in the park itself. I don't expect the NPS to hurry to put in DCFCs, or even more L2s; honestly, I like...
  9. Road trip decision point EV or ICE (MN->WY)

    My wife and I visit Yellowstone from Oregon at least once a year, have for the last 20 years. Historically, that's 99% of the time by driving; we've flown out there once, and for our 2024 trip in a couple weeks we'll be flying again instead of taking the Lightning. It's not that I don't trust...
  10. Why Range (still) matters.

    We live in Philomath, and bought our Lightning from that dealership in Corvallis (well, they facilitated the order, anyway!). I check now and then on weekends (they're closed on Sundays) to see if it's improved. A few weeks ago it was exactly as you described, all stalls blocked by drop-offs...
  11. What do you call / name your Lightning?

    Mjolnir Edit: I call it that...my wife calls it "the truck" or "the Lightning". She's never been into the names like I have. I'm the nerdier of the two of us (though she has her moments!). :)
  12. Tesla fires whole Supercharger team [Update: Musk says supercharger growth will continue]

    Exactly; I think that's the key point to the whole situation: it appears (to the world outside of Musk's head) that this was a temper tantrum and serves no real purpose. I sure can't see one. My take on the whole thing: I'm not going to freak out and sell my Lightning and go back to an ICE...
  13. Tesla fires whole Supercharger team [Update: Musk says supercharger growth will continue]

    Sandy Munro has his take on the whole thing here; it's a very different perspective than what a lot of other people are saying/feeling. 🤔
  14. BlueCruise priced at $700 per year on 2024 models .......

    I thought I saw something about it being $800/year...so maybe they've dropped it a little bit. Like you, I'll use it (sparingly) while I have it on my 2023, but will not be renewing when it expires (my wife doesn't trust it anyway, and I'm not enamored of it either...certainly not to the tune...
  15. Ignorant Sales people amaze me

    I have known more about every vehicle I have ever bought (and there have been too many, admittedly...) than any "sales associate" I have ever dealt with. I learned long ago to not contradict, to just buy what I want based on what I know, and move on. It would be nice if they'd learn about the...
  16. My Ford.com account no longer shows 12 volt percentage

    Well that's annoying...it was there this morning...
  17. Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

    Never mind...found a link to see the status. The link in my email is "expired" but if you click around enough in "Connected Services" you can find the status (can't post a link because it appear to be vehicle-specific and dynamic).
  18. Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

    Same...I'm concerned it's tied to the announcement around the firing of the Tesla Supercharger team...maybe that's overly pessimistic, but it's an interesting coincidence...
  19. Ford Adapter Delayed; Glad I got an A2Z

    No change to my original June date, thankfully. Also have an A2Z adapter on order (scheduled delivery next Wednesday!), so glad I went that route!
