This post illustrates the truth about what we've been seeing in EVs for years. I've owned 2 Volts, 1 Bolt, and now a Tesla. I don't think that until these things become completely mainstream and battery swap/repair is completely simple and modular, that we'll have low depreciation on the...
It's been an interesting few weeks since I cancelled my Lightning order. There will always be a little regret because after driving one, they will be an excellent truck. Those who end up with them will be happy, if they're OK with the payment. In my case, I just couldn't justify it. Having a...
Interesting. Well, hopefully they sell it. There is an identical one there that they took in trade, and that's been sitting there now for a month or two. It's got less than 3000 miles on it.
To those who replied to my query on cancellation, thank you. My dealer was able to get the refund figured out. I must say, I'm a little relieved that I was able to cancel it. When you add up these negatives: No heated steering wheel and some trailering stuff, the inability to get the $7500...
I did end up cancelling my order. The heated steering wheel was a deal breaker for me, since it wasn't a free future retrofit. There is more to the story, but, I had a build date of 1/9/2023 and now it's cancelled. So close yet so far.
Ahh, thanks for that. I guess I'll see what happens over the next week. Of course, they seemed nice enough and even very understanding when I went in today. It sounds like they have seen a lot of this with the F-150 lately. In fact, they took a lariat in trade, and put it on the lot for...
Where an the screen are you talking about? Is it when I follow my email link and am logged in looking at my order? Just want to see if I can find it using a full size browser.
So far I'm not concerned. I guess that will change if they give me a hassle. :) The dealer assured me that my deposit was 100% refundable, even up until the delivery and purchase of the truck, so they shouldn't have any reason to refuse it.
At the end, I have a question about cancellation... (skip a couple paragraphs for that)
Just today I dropped in at the dealer to cancel my F-150 lightning order. During thanksgiving I had gotten a build date of 1/9/2023, so it was getting close, but the nails finally went into the coffin...
All I know is that I have said before that I will never again buy another car without a heated steering wheel, and if my Lightning Lariat LR doesn't have one, I'm going to sell the truck and use the profits to buy something that will have it. I agree, if they don't plan to put it on in the...
