    Drilling into the frunk tub through the matt was scary. Way to many coolant and electrical lines for my taste. Not to mention what's the hold force of those screws through the plastic.

  3. All the recalls, done in a day

    Did the same last Friday, although I didn't read anything on camera calibration. I have yet to put the truck on a DC charger to verify everything works. Fingers are crossed. My loaner was a New Bronco Sport. A good reminder of why I purchased an Electric vehicle. 1/2 the price with 1/10th the...

  5. Can The Lightning Cool Its Own Battery in Hot Weather When Not Plugged In?

    Another Phx owners with no shade where I park and I don't leave it plugged in. I have an ER and have never found the fans running without it plugged in or stated. Just reporting my experience. Would having the proximity setting enabled allow the truck to start preconditioning? I turned this...

  8. Anyone replace the CCS for J1772 cable on the Charge Station Pro?

    For the inconvenience of flipping the DC cover every time I charge I have thought about making this change. It hasn't bothered me enough... yet. If/when I do I'll be looking for a new cord from the charger. Keeping the CCS cable if I add home charging or want to sell later. Buying a full cord...

    thanks for the details. Good to see some real world positive experiences.
  12. Do I need to run new 400 amp service in my house for the Lightning + everything else?

    Most will not need to charge at 80 Amps. If daily drive uses 90% or more of your battery and the truck sits less than 12 hours. 80A will likely be needed. The less you drive/longer it sits the lower you can run your charge levels. To put it in use of your lighting terms. Your truck can do 0-60...

  16. White Lightning with painted grill, level kit, 33x11.5R20 Ridge Grappler tires

    I like the darker grill, been thinking about that myself and maybe tinting the light bar to match. A few questions: 1. What color did you use? 2. is it paint or something else? 3. Did you do the black on the bumper the same color or is that stock?

    Did you try a hard rest by disconnecting the 12V battery for a few min. I believe it has fixed other problems asked in this forum.

    1. It's riding season in AZ. Ride first, make sure bikes are repaired, then work later. 2. don't need it for what I currently do. 3. needs work (AKA time) to setup. 2 new sub panels and running a new 100 amp circuit across the house.

    Darn - thought I read that a 2" level helped stiffen the suspension a bit. as for the bigger tire on a smaller wheel. I'm looking at the same thing.... when I need new tires some day.
  20. Am I crazy - L1 at home is adequate?

    I set when to charge in the truck and it would not charge during those times. I did not have any departure times set.
