The Lightning is my first Ford, and I miss a lot of the features I had in my GMC Denali. The Silverado EV and Sierra EV look good to me, but no way I would pay current list price for one. In a year or so when they realize that they are not going to sell many at that price I would expect to see...
On a similar note, I have issues with Android Auto on my 2023 Lariat. The truck has wireless AA, which is great, but it always wants to play music from my phone. I get in the truck, my sat radio starts playing, and then a few seconds later it reverts to my phone through Android Auto, and...
There is definitely no cable from the gear shifter to a 'transmission' like in a traditional ICE setup. Heck, my 2023 Audi Q5 has a 'shift by wire' system. Very few cars are using a cable or mechanical linkage to shift the transmission these days.
The shifter is only sending a signal, along...
Yes, the turn signal camera view when towing was great. Kia and Hyundai do this on almost all their vehicles now, towing or not towing. My wife has an Ioniq 5 and it is great to see the blind spot when you activate the turn signal.
I searched but didn't find this so thought I'd post. For me the Lightning is great, but could be better. My wish list:
Heads up display
Digital camera rear view mirror
Eliminate center shifter. Go to a pushbutton, dash knob, or stalk style to free up center console area. I know I can't be...
I traded in my 2020 GMC Denali half ton with 3.0 Duramax. Always had GM and Toyota products. I really loved that truck and miss a few of the features (Heads up display and digital camera rear view mirror). I drove the Lightning expecting not to like it and ended up taking it home. First time...
Interesting. The seller said the cover measures 66" x 63". My box is close to 63" wide but 68" from front front edge of box (below back window) to the front edge of tailgate. Seems about 2" off.
I was told that the Lightning has the same box as the gas model, and that all accessories will interchange. I searched but could not find the years that apply. I found a trifold tonneau cover that is from a 2018 Raptor, but it seems to be a different size box than my Lightning. Is there a...
Those do look nice. Have you weighed the combo to see if heavier or lighter than stock 20s? Are they same track, so no 'poke' outside the fenders? Thanks
I just bought a 2023 Lariat ER. I always run a second set of wheels and snow tires for winter. Has anyone tried this wheel on the lightning? It is listed as a Ford Expedition wheel, 20x8.5, 6x135, 44mm offset. Ideally, I would want a wheel that is lighter than stock and keeps the same...
I just purchased a 2023 Lightning Lariat and the dealer said that all I had to do was get the certificate by logging into Ford's veteran's page, and then IDme. I did both, and received the number for the discount. Nobody asked how long I had been out or any other questions. Maybe I snuck through?
I misread your post and thought you were living in Great Falls. We have 6 or 7 chargers now, and the Tesla chargers in Marketplace are now fair game, so that will help for sure. Still tough to go to Colorado as there are very few chargers in Montana, but other directions aren't too bad...
Hello. Yesterday I bought a 2023 Lightning Lariat ER with max tow in Missoula Montana and drove home to Great Falls. I was pretty happy with the deal I received from Lithia Ford in Missoula. I am a long-time GMC and Chevy owner, and am switching from a 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Duramax 3.0...
