I have this as well (2023 XLT 311A). Since it was mentioned, my front light bar is also misaligned on the diver's side. Light bar bothers me more. Not enough to spend multiple hours fixing it (yet).

No prob. Here's the manual mentioning it if you need it. They can use dollies too.

I might be a little late to mention this but make sure they get a flat bed to tow the truck. In case you didn't know, Ford recommends it since our trucks have one motor at each axle. Towing with one set of wheels on the ground can cause damage to the one motor attached to those wheels. Good...

I've come across this term "rolling resistance" before after getting our family's first EV and I never really knew how to describe it until reading this. That makes perfect sense to my brain.

What did the warning say/what did it look like? Edit - Sorry should have been more clear: did it just say "Service vehicle soon"?

I don't know what the orange light means but check maybe the outlets you were using weren't grounded properly? I've seen other 120V chargers (not Ford) freak out when that happens.

Apparently the trailer light check feature is back too. Do zone lightning next please @Ford Motor Company! 🙏

All I've got is the parking sensor CSP. Interesting. 2023 XLT SR for what it's worth.

If it's anything like the Kia EV6 (and I'd bet it is since they use the same software) you can change this behavior in the car's settings to: Never lock the plug Lock the plug until charging is complete Always keep the plug locked

That's pretty cool, but it's a little silly to see them jump from recalled Tesla adapters to Lectron (which at one point had a recall situation of their own). That's in the past though at least.

Really would like to have zone lightning controls back. Would have been great to have last night.

Here's another one I thought of for standard range trucks: figuring out your remaining miles is easy. Great if you want to double check that the guess-o-meter is accurate. Our battery packs have about 98KWh* of energy stored at 100%, so let's just round to 100 KWh to keep the math easy. Now your...

Here's a good feature: our trucks cool the motors and battery more aggressively when set to Tow/Haul mode. Doesn't matter if you have tow package or not. It comes at the expense of more energy usage, obviously. But good to know if you're in a bind. On the flip side, I've seen videos of owners...

This isn't necessarily a good feature (more like a quirk), but on XLT and Pro trims the frunk can't be opened or closed via the button on the frunk if the truck is locked even partly. Locked? No frunk button operation Driver side open but other doors locked? See above. Unlocked? Frunk button...

Man that's terrible you had to go through all of that and still no resolution. FYI: Most Ford dealers are kind of clueless on EVs. Even the decent ones that met Ford's EV requirements. You most likely know more about your vehicle than they do. Question on the sales person letting you use his...

The "Calm" view on the dash displays the SoC if you aren't using that already. It is an annoying workaround but hopefully it'll tide you over until Ford deems your truck worthy of v 6.8.

Ford got rid of the 240V@80A charging from the 2024 models too, if memory serves. I think you can only max out at 40A now.

I have been charging exclusively on 120V for over a year now with my lightning and have never seen 12 amps. My EVSE always says 10 amps. Pretty sure that's the max the lightning can accept at 120V.

Is there anything that could be done afternarket to the MachE's ride quality? Different tires and/or changing out some components of the suspension or something? Personally, I'd investigate these options before losing out $13K on a trade-in (plus however much extra the lightning will run you)...

Just to double check too this is the rattle you hear?
