  1. 2026 F-150 Lightning Order Banks are Open

    Understandably. Difficult to compete with GM's "standard range"
  2. 80A Charging Cable Under Garage Door

    Like you, there just isn't enough room In the garage for the lighting. I don't like not being able to close the garage door all the way. I drilled a hole through the exterior wall into the garage, and simply routed the charging cable outside, while keeping the charger inside. Incorporated a...
  3. Spare tire question

    Just get an LT tire. This is less weight than my f250.
  4. Range? What's the effect on range of various MPH?

    The graph for a sr is hilarious @85 🤭
  5. Range? What's the effect on range of various MPH?

    I get pretty close to 2mi/kw at 70. Exponentially less over 80 (1.5 or less). Hot and humid in S Florida. Something else to consider if you've never owned an ev... something I wish I had before my purchase. For your regular route- you don't typically charge to 100% and drive to 0%. I keep mine...
  6. EVs cut brake dust pollution by 83%!

    I'll take your word for it, I just have my wife's car that uses ceramic. Still on original pads after 40,000 miles plenty left on them. I thought our trucks might also since I've never seen a bit of brake dust? anyway it is pretty sweet we don't need to use our brakes. Biggest advantage imo...
  7. EVs cut brake dust pollution by 83%!

    A couple of things, first, brake pads are very inexpensive, secondly, I believe you have that backwards (ceramic brakes vs semi-metallic.) Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that we barely have to use the physical brakes too decelerate. It's just that going ev to eliminate brake dust sounds...
  8. EVs cut brake dust pollution by 83%!

    If reducing brake dust is the goal, just use ceramic brakes on everything.
  9. Extreme over predicted range!

    The air is a bit more humid in S Florida. 80 mph is 1.5mi/kw. Lucky to get 2.0 mi/kw @70 At 40-45 mph with no stoplights- over 3.0 mi/kw. At any rate- the range is based on previous behavior. The OP averaged roughly 1.9kw/hr per mile. That's about right for a mix of 80mph and 40mph.
  10. F-150 Lightning SuperTruck Run a 6:43.482 Nurburgring Lap Time, as Quick as 911 GT2 RS

    Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo | 5:19.54 minutes | 20,832 km That would give me legit PTSD
  11. Why isn’t the Lightning getting more of the gas F150 market?

    Virtually everything I thought was important about EV ownership turned out to be completely unimportant once I owned one. I remember stressing about the infrastructure of charging stations more than anything, as well as time to charge on the road. Fast forward over a year and a half later, for...
  12. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    One other thing that has been touched on numerous times, but no one has said it out right, if you plan on keeping this as long as it sounds like you do, you want to keep your battery between 80% and 20%. So even though you have a "240 mile range'" realistically, you're only dipping into 60% of...
  13. Not charging correctly after battery module and charge port replacement

    That doesn't sound abnormal to me 🤷 Get into the 30% range and see if you get the larger curve. I won't pull over 150 if I'm over~50% iirc
  14. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    That's not accurate. on my 2023 Standard range pro, I have pro-power 9.6KW (with the 240v outlet in the bed among other things) :)
  15. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    When did Ford use an LFP battery on the standard range lightning? Thanks in advance
  16. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    I got a standard range, and regret not getting the extended. I don't think anyone bought an extended range and has regrets of not getting a standard.
