Just a random thought I had. Ford is trying to cut costs to keep the price down on the lightning. Does anyone have any thoughts on a single motor lightning? Obviously, it would not have the speed or towing capacity, but would it be more efficient?
Well, my lightning is going in to the shop in the morning as it will not charge.
As Dr. Seuss would say:
Will not charge with FCSP
Will not charge with DCFC
Will not charge with FMC
Will not charge with anything for me.

I donāt know if this is a recent thing since my last vehicle was a 2016 expedition, but this is the first time I have not had to change the time when going to or from daylight savings time! I complain about stuff on this forum so I figured I would give Ford some love!ā¤ļø
My truck is in the shop for the 24B56 CSP, 10K service and hopefully the BCM update!
I miss my Lightning after less than five minutes driving this ICE!
Donāt get me wrong. This is a nice truck but I feel like I am having to fight the accelerator to get this thing moving it almost feels like...

5 m/kWh! I would be ecstatic if I got 3 on average! I know itās a smaller vehicle, but that is some pretty amazing battery tech!
It will be interesting to see how this does!

No wonder they are so slow getting our OTAs out. Theyāre busy with more important things like trying to figure out how to repo vehicles.
I was cleaning my truck earlier and vacuumed up the little rubber piece where the gearshift folds down! I tried unsuccessfully to open It with my fingernail will have to get some tools out. I have seen the one for the key under the cupholders.
Ford may be burning through cash to get the EV side profitable but at least we shouldnāt have to deal with this!

Charged my truck last night and just happened to check the app to see how much I had charged. Not sure how I put that many kilowatt hours into an ER battery pack??
Has anyone else had this happen?
After another thunderstorm that has blown through the Dallas area today (This has been an almost daily occurrence the last week or two). My neighborhood is without power. I know many people in the metroplex have been out for many days now, so I am not in as bad of shape as some of them. My solar...
