  1. Ford Resumes Shipping NACS Charging Adapters (November 2024 batch)

    My reservation is 36000 reserved on 3/1/24. I expect to see it the same time as BC 1.4. "Soon"
  2. OTA Software Update - 10.1.0 - It's karaoke time

    Popped on mine last night. The wife finds out, I'll never get the Lightning back.
  3. What’s your exit plan for the truck?

    My lease expires in 28 and yes I will be considering another Lightning. The big question is what else will be out there. If there is a 3/4 or 1 ton option, I will be favoring that over a half ton. When I set up the lease, I planned for the miles of use at 75% of what I drive my F350 based on...
  4. Leaves in the radiator? Why is it designed like this?

    I had to vacuum grass seed out of mine a couple times in July and August. I have also had to wash mud out of the radiator. A screen would not have prevented this and would have made it harder to clean. I do wish someone would make removeable covers to protect against larger objects but allow...
  5. New to EV, Lease Deal Question

    This isn't an answer to your money question, but I like my lease. When the battery warranty expires, I won't own this vehicle and the battery will cost more than the vehicle will be worth. I do like the Lightning and will lease again in the future.
  6. Owners - Do you drive in one pedal mode or traditional ?

    What?? No 3 pedal option? Guess I'm gonna have to give up my manuals. Zero learning curve for me. I drive Manuals, autos, powershifts, CVTs, hydros, and crashboxes. No learning curve here because they all drive differently. The CVTs probably pretrained me to use 1 pedal mode because they...
  7. lane assist issues in 2023

    Lane assist has had the largest learning curve for me. The big trick is learning to steer without grabbing the wheel when lane assist is on. Grabbing the wheel results in tired hands because you have to constantly apply steering input when in lane assist mode. I tend to steer with my palm or...
  8. Priority Update: 23-PU0110-RAD-PS

    Got this one today and 23-PU1024-6CH-AUD on 8/3. Looking for a third shortly as I have been getting updates in groups of three.
  9. Will it fit me?

    Congratulations! Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.
  10. Lack of OTA Updates...Am I the Only One?

    I got the Tesla P&C update today and it appears I am on the same schedule as mrau. Updates are coming in groups of three.
  11. Weight limit roads / bridges are exceeded by our Lightnings - how will these EV trucks handle restrictions ?

    Where I live, a sign like that is an axle limit. Sign says 3 ton limit X 2 axles = 6 ton vehicle weight limit. This follow FMCSA rules, California may be different.
  12. OTA ECG-24.2.4.9 Software Distribution Enhancement

    Just got this one. No notifications. If I hadn't been looking at other settings, I wouldn't have seen the update.
  13. Power tailgate turns itself back on

    Could the power tailgate be turned off using Forscan? Not all trims of the lightning have a power tailgate. More of a problem with operating with the tailgate down I've seen is that it is set to take a very light lift to close it which causes it to bounce when moving with it down.
  14. Cannot Connect Charge Station Pro to Home Wi-Fi - Is That OK?

    When I installed my CSPs, I used the hotspot in the Lightning to link them and do the updates. Only need wifi for about 10 minutes. The one sitting 20 miles out still doesn't have access so it will probably never get another update. There was an update when I installed mine about the first of...
  15. Will it fit me?

    I hope some of your neighbors in AZ chime in on what your true range will be. I run about 220 miles max here in SD with my Lariat ER. High winds will cost me around 20% of range. Locate charging that fits your travel needs. It may mean your 400 mile drive will become a 450 mile drive just so...
  16. Lack of OTA Updates...Am I the Only One?

    I've come to the conclusion that Ford's update team compares vins to the winning tickets in the office lottery pool. If you match, you get an update. If not, sorry 'bout your luck, maybe next week.
  17. Got My First Thumbs Down [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    I've had one hater who knew more about my lightning than I do even thought he had never been near one. Purely political. Most people get very curious about the lightning and want to go for a ride. I usually respond by saying sure, you're driving. The results have been a lot of WOWs and OMGs...
  18. Safety Issue with Cruise Control Accidently Engaging

    I was using one pedal mode. As far as the movement pattern, that is why I know I did not touch the steering wheel when the cruise engaged. I merely backed up to allow a larger vehicle to move safely and then moved back to where I was parked. I have had other instances where the cruise has...
  19. Safety Issue with Cruise Control Accidently Engaging

    I just had my cruise control activate while stopped. When it occurred, I had NOT touched the steering wheel. I entered the vehicle, pressed start, shifted to reverse, backed up 10 feet, shifted to drive, and cruise came on at 15mph. This was done with no contact with the steering wheel at any...
  20. What is more valuable, dual chargers or heat pump for a MN driver?

    I live in a charging desert. 50 miles to the nearest L3 charger and its only 50kw. If you live in an area like I do, take the dual chargers. Otherwise, the heat pumps would be my pick.
