The title explains it all . I had no idea this was a thing until my wife brought it home today as a surprise.

Whenever Apple releases a new major beta milestone of IOS, many sites remind people to not install the beta on mission critical hardware like your personal phone. This is consistently sage advice. With that in mind, I know many of us are "early adopters" that might not mind gnashing their...

My friend Alex who owns an electrical company installed my FCSP back in June last year and took me up on the offer to drive my truck. He liked it and ended up picking up a 2022 Lariat SR off the lot so he could get under the cap for the $7500 tax credit. Here are a couple photos of his truck...

Although some members have reported receiving 4.2.2.1 , I haven’t seen anyone post 4.2.2 yet. It includes the ability to share voice feedback with Ford directly through the truck . Maybe they’d like feedback on the numbering system ?

The first Tesla magic dock supercharger on Long Island went online this morning . I decided to give it a go and also post some pictures of what I believe to be the most polite places to park your car and charge in this scenario.

Looks like a minor update but it just came through.

I believe I’ve read about people having issues with the onboard modem not working recently. In the past two weeks , the hotspot on my truck has not been broadcasting the SSID or allowing devices that remember my hotspot to connect when I turn on the truck . I have to go into settings and...

A couple days ago @Ford Motor Company posted here that if you use their navigation to navigate to A DC fast charger it will precondition the battery to accept a fast charge (like teslas) . They noted that the (doesn’t exist unless you are a mach-e) 3.6.2 update enabled this feature . Even...

I don’t collect matchbox cars ( well I haven’t since I was 8 or 9) , but I loved this little gift I found under the tree . I noticed the major changes are the grill ( which is “closish” ) and the charging door which probably closes more reliably than my actual lightning . This will go right...

I woke up this morning to see my truck hadn’t charged the night before after 4.1.1 update . -My lightning is set to charge to 90% starting at 11:00 pm each night ( when the rate is lower from electricity provider ) - I have departure/ comfort settings set for each morning . Today the setting...

Coming on the heels of another Hoovies Garage Lightning video , we have a brand new (not 3.5.5) priority power up update installing on my truck right now. Of note : I did not receive 3.5.5 and this is one of those separately numbered updates like the tire pressure recall / phone as a key /...

Just went outside to check on my truck something I’ve never noticed before was occurring . The truck is making a somewhat hi pitched buzzing sound . Charging started 13 minutes ago and it’s the coldest night I’ve ever charged during . Is this the truck warming the batteries before charging...

I have to be a bit vague here, but in two weeks a national news program is doing a multi part special on new ev owners , the inflation reduction act and people who may have been financially strained to purchase a lightning or surprised / frustrated with additional costs . If you had to take on...

Had to get a side hustle to pay for my truck so I made some custom modifications to it. 19” Custom rocket propulsion Magnetic stick on signage ( then I remembered my truck was aluminum )

For members here with early build dates , I can confirm that PAAK is pushing to some lightnings as early as today . Mine is updating right now . This update does require downtime on the vehicle .

He hates battery-powered vehicles. So how did the Ford F-150 Lightning win him over? Jeremy Clarkson: I’ve fallen in love with an electric pick-up truck October 23 2022, The Sunday Times Last paragraph summary: I have no need for this car at all. It’s stupid. The steering wheel is on the...

Just a heads up for anyone bringing their truck in for its first 10,000 mile service . Make sure your dealer inflates your tires to the correct PSI . Let me preface this by saying , I’m extremely happy with the Ford dealer that I’ve been buying vehicles from since I could drive . They also...

Did anyone else receive this email today? I use FordPass everyday..

Enjoy that fun clickbaity title , but we have 2 hours left of Summer on the East Coast and I can promise you that my truck does not have phone as a key yet. https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/19/23131268/ford-f-150-lightning-truck-phone-as-key-delay On the bright side of things, if this was an...

Does your lightning have the bent middle speaker grill or the plastic coming off one or both running boards ? See photos
