There’s a crazy amount of room under the truck bed where the spare tire is. I think that’s where scout put their EREV engine.

Well this is officially the coolest thing I’ve seen done on this forum. So surprised it just worked without any programming. Kudos to Ford engineers if that’s the case.

I’ll add to the unproven speculation 🙂. If I’m Ford I’d be simultaneously designing the ground up universal EV platform (smaller EVs like Ranger size, Explorer, etc) but also continuing to evolving the full sized F150 Lightning. Gen 1 Lightning was an ICE F150 converted into an EV. The Gen 2...

Buying used direct from an owner is always an option too on places like facebook marketplace, etc. I’d definitely want to test drive and odb scan any used vehicle before purchase.

Well that's fun. I'll try a few different parking positions but if that doesn't help I guess I'll look into something like this? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CL68VH5X?ref=emc_p_m_5_i_atc&th=1

That is a real bummer. I’m seeing a lot of totaled Lightning posts in various places (Facebook, Reddit) due to deer season too. If it were me I’d try to find another Lightning, probably used with low miles and one that matches or exceeds the trim level and features I already have.

I just moved to a new home that has really poor cellular service. I haven’t yet setup WiFi at the new house. I noticed that I can’t even remote start the truck via the app because it seems the truck can’t receive the signal over cellular. So I’m really hoping that when I do setup WiFi later this...

From this latest video it seems the weak link in the chain is ford EVSE wall unit.

Even though I commented early about the front sonar beepy sensors being slow to react, I’m now remembering at least two times the truck alerted me to an imminent crash ahead. Once when traffic stopped on the highway and I was still accelerating with the accelerator pedal towards it. The other...

In general I find the front sonar sensors to be severely delayed. And I had the front sensor CSP done and it’s still the same. The back ones work great, but the front ones will let me drive straight into my closed garage door before they even begin beeping.

Many of us completely agree the advertising for this truck is non existent. I guess we need to create some fan films or something ha.

2023 Lariat with PAAK. No pro power here either. Tried force closing and reopening the 6.2 iOS app and still nothing.

Yeah it’s logical it would involve ABS. The article stated it changes the accelerator response too: “ When you activate it, your truck dials back accelerator pedal responsiveness and recalibrates traction and stability controls to help prevent wheel spin. Use this mode on icy roads or any time...

Was reading this Ford article and learned about Slippery Mode on the 2025’s. Now I of course hope someone can help us figure out how to add it to the 2022-2024’s but I guess based on this thread that is no easy task at the moment...

Had a Mach e loaner/rental once. Agree it’s really nice. Just a bit too small for our needs though since we haul kids and stuff everywhere.

In my view, the Lighting is the most successful EV truck because of how much it shares with its ICE counterpart. Decades of ICE dominance know-how were baked into the Lightning from its inception. The ICE/EV design overlap is advantageous for both consumers and for Ford. The next phase for Ford...

If you have a 2023 I don’t think you can have smart hitch. I believe it requires the onboard scales and 2023’’s didn’t get that due to chip shortage that year. But it does seem like 2022’s would be possible via software.

Neat that Teslas do that. I suppose if you were a handy person there would be a way to tap into the brake light wire and put a little tiny red light on the dashboard somewhere that would do the same thing.

Well if the Lightning is discontinued as the rumors are flying now, we may have seen our last OTA anyways.
