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.

You could also look into what Ford offers for the police interceptor package for the Lightning. It might be at least a head start on what you’re aiming for. https://www.designdevelopmenttoday.com/industries/automotive/news/22353719/ford-debuts-f150-lightning-pickup-truck-built-for-police

Yeah that is the saddest part. As a diy job buying his own parts it was probably a $5k job to fix.

Not sure if this person who runs the Trucked Up EVs channel is on the forum here but he’s done Lightning videos before. This one is interesting as it covers his journey with insurance labeling his truck totaled with very minor damage.

I intentionally never open my moon roof. I feel like as soon as dust or leaves or pine needles fall in the tracks it’s gonna start leaking. Just my own theory.

i always forget to use tow/haul mode when carrying bed loads as a side note

Yeah unfortunately the article and the linked article in Swedish didn’t mention the age or mileage of the EVs. So this info seems kinda helpless without that. But in general, it’s age that degrades EV batteries more than miles.

Is it easy to search by? Just wondering how the service info is categorized and how in depth it goes for the BEV F150.

Has anyone seen a comparison done between a heat pump equipped Lightning vs one without? I haven’t yet but I recall when the heat pump versions came out some people complained the cabin heat in winter was weaker. Not sure if this is true or not either.

Confirmed my backup passcode is no longer working so I’ll have to reset it and create a new one. It could be because I got a new iPhone 17 but it could also be something with the truck. But glad OP alerted me to try this.

Looks like that seat might have appendicitis :)

Unless I’m not seeing it somewhere, my 2023 Lariat max tow does not seem to have hill decent control. Note that you also can’t use one pedal in off road mode. So maybe the solution when going down a steep off road decline is to switch to normal mode and then use one pedal to slow your roll. I...

Forgot about this way to verify online. For references this is what a max tow lariat shows:

This is great to see. I know it’s the tax credit ending sales bump but at this point it has to be costing Ford a little less to make these things compared to 2022.

Same features but I kinda like the new design. Information that used to be buried is now more up front. Here’s to hoping this is a launch pad to new features being added.

Also hadn’t heard this before

Holy moly this is gonna be great to see if it works. Everyone on the forum is like ..
