I'm a little late to this chat but my 70 mile drive to the office on secondary roads has 3 areas with reduced truck speed limits due to the mountain grade. Truck sees the 25 mph truck speed as the speed limit for it, not the true passenger vehicle 45 mph limit. Without using some sort of GPS...

OK so i don't get this. I saw that some that ordered in August are receiving in Oct but my order says November and I ordered on day 1 of the order system opening, just in the evening not at 0500 that day. really odd prioritization. Is what is for a free item. Like others, I have a work around...

I've tried 17" and 18". 17's do not clear the front brake caliper on my lightning, the 18's are so close to the caliper that wheel weight placement on inside of the rim can interfere with the caliper. I advise skipping 17's

All, I have both a 2017 XLT and the lightning. The 2017 has 17" steel wheels. they do not fit over my ligtning's front brake calipers. You might want to try that 17" spare before you need it. Might fit over the rear caliper, I didn't try, and you could do a rear to front swap of one of the...

Taxman thanks for the comment. I haven't seen the full breadth of the corporate responses so I had some hope. I also understand that the group that monitors this likely has official limitations on what they can discuss.

Mrau, Thanks for this idea. i thought it would work but it actually lists the dealer I called that says they are not allowed to work on the vehicle. with EV certified selected it has basically listed every nearby Ford dealer. I tried other filtering options and it changed a few dealers but EV...

Thanks all for the comments and those articles. The person I spoke to was EV certified on a different brand himself. He also commented that once they sell off their current stock of the lightnings and mach e's they will not be able to get more to sell. I cannot say that the recommended dealer...

Sorry if this should be placed elsewhere. Today I finally got around to scheduling the recall service for the defrost heater solder problem and the customer satisfaction 12 volt battery monitor replacement. Service person at the dealer stated Ford has barred them from servicing any lightnings...

I posted in the big thread thursday evening that i had 27154 July delivery

I put 18" 10 ply firestone winterforce on my lightning in the fall. I did some non-scientific comparisons between my regular commutes some short 20 mile one way and some long 70 mile one way. The tire and rim change does not seem to have altered my kWh/Mile. generally in the 2.0 to 2.3 range...

Well i kinda missed the boat and didn't get in until a little while ago. Order number twenty seven thousand xxx. Ford says July delivery.

TaxmanHog, thanks for the idea but with my realism/pessimism I'd rather have a software update glitch strand the truck at home where I have other transportation options. I'll set it up for the early evening when i get home, see how that goes. Maquis, here are images of the power transfer...

8/4/23 build week; 10/20/23 purchase. Got the 4.2.1.2 update last night but... the update prevented my scheduled overnight charging session. I have my auto update time set to 0100 7 days a week have my charging set to occur 0100 - 0600 to reduce the amount of energy needed to warm the battery...

My June / August build Lariat (delivered Oct 13) is also missing the spare tire lock, just the snap cover, no guts.

3000 miles into my 2023 Lariat and have found that speed is much more the issue than temp. Air resistance forces are calculate with the square of the velocity so doubling of speed quadruples the losses. I've got a 70 mile one way commute over country roads so my speed ranges from 25 to 70...

Howdy, While my order process didn't start until May 22 with the $100, it took them until October 23 to get me the truck. As for a temporary at home wall charger, consider the 48 amp Emporia 1772 unit. It works great for me and has a good reviews. $400 on amazon as i type this. Better...

I also have the recall for the possibly missing soldier joint. Shows on the .gov site but not in my Ford Pass today. Yesterday the defrost heater recall and the battery recall were on the Ford Pass listing.

my lariat is pried below that 80 k point but i never got a fresh window sticker only the one generated in May with the high prices. NOTE i ordered it Dec 19 2022. 10 months and 1 day later i completed the sale on the 20th of Oct. Needed to push dealer on the MSRP, they had one with the high...

I called the marketing # to chat about a base MSRP problem I am having and asked about the 11116 rebate. The marketing contact could not find that rebate in the systems she had access. She recommended working with the dealer to find this.

Thanks, i've already communicated this rebate number to the dealer. We'll see what happens.
