  1. Farley says Hybrid and Range-extenders are the answer for trucks (except fleets)

    Ford has steady missed the product need outside of F150, a viable electric explorer would sell easily, additionally, charging infrastructure is what holds the EV market back, but, no one is investing in it... Farley is supposed to be a "car guy" but, there hasn't been a single interesting...
  2. Looking at Solar: questions

    I'm in Raleigh, considering the same. What is the ROM on your quotes? What size system are they recommending?
  3. What’s your exit plan for the truck?

    I use mine as a work vehicle, reimbursement program, I plan to keep until the limits of my reimbursement program (6 model years). By then it will have easily paid for itself and there will probably be something available with better range and equal or better cost. May keep it and go to a...
  4. 2024 F150 XLT loaner

    I don't see both maps together, but, apple maps will show the directions on the main screen and calculations on the guessometer, so, there is some sort of extra integration recently added. Google maps and waze do not do the same thing.
  5. Traveling with Apple Maps (possibly Ford/others) Question

    Plan route on ABRP, note chargers you want to stop at, go to Ford nav in truck, lookup charger location, hit the "find charger near location" button, pick the charger, drive to it, in vehicle nav will prep for charging... charge, rinse, repeat.
  6. Latest update making phone connection slower.

    One of my biggest annoyances with the truck, which was the same in my ice f150 prior, is how long the infotainment takes to boot up. I can be a mile down the road from home before the center stack is awake and functioning properly. Most annoying when it reverts to some prior setting that is...
  7. Soften up my ride...

    I haven't deterred from stock size on lightning, but, every other truck I have had (4), I went up in aspect ratio to increase the sidewall, and it did give a better ride...
  8. Is Anybody Happy With Their Lightning?

    Love mine. Bought used (10k miles). Now have almost 40k. Love it. Other than minor annoyances, little things that wouldn't exist on a less modern vehicle, has been smooth sailing.
  9. Virginia Ford CCS Tesla NACS DC Fast Charging Adapter

    Wish I had seen this a couple months ago, broke down and bought and A2Z. side note, to each their own, but, selling a good functioning vehicle at a huge loss because OTA updates are slow? Seems a little like misguided priorities... But, I got mine used, was able to have it fully up to date...
  10. Bluecruise warning after 5 seconds?

    I my experience voice controls cause more aggravation and distraction than a few screen taps. this system is way to sensitive and it's alerts are more risk than help.
  11. List the features needed to make the Ford Nav something you WANT to use

    Let people use it when driving. 99% of people are going to type on their phone when the screen won't let them do things underway, so quit the nanny state and just unlock the feature I paid for.
  12. Another Dreary Earnings Report for 'F'

    Reading more details, I'm not sure if this is the time to sell or buy. Love my lightning, obviously Ford has had some quality issues, but, they are improving. Also, there software subcription model, which personally I don't like, is selling well and growing quickly. The EV market is down from...
  13. What (to you) is an EV-Ready Corridor?

    That's a start. No where near enough for the 2035 goals. Density doesn't need to equal gas with home charging, but, eventually, if most cars are electric, it will need to be at least 25% of gas frequency, my guess.
  14. Need opinions on dip color change

    I love it with the logos peeled. Mine's Atlas Blue. Personally, I would keep the orange grill if I were you. Maybe black out the horizontal bars...
  15. Out of Spec EV range test - Lightning/Cybertruck/R1T/Silverado

    To #3, makes since, I have definitely gotten over 300 on my lightning multiple times.
  16. 2023 Ford F150 Lightning Lariat - Parking Sensors

    I guess I had a similar experience, except that the tech at my dealer worked on it a good while (no clue what they did) and got it fixed and I have not a single problem from the sensors since then, going on 2 months. I went in for several of the CSB/23B70B and some other TSB issues, and he did...
  17. Charge port door latch broke

    I should have clarified that I plan to fix under warranty but my dealers soonest appointment is a little over 2 weeks out.
  18. Charge port door latch broke

    The little finger plunger mechanism broke off in the catch, now door is just flapping in the wind and I can't get the plunger out, any ideas?
