  1. How To Adjust Stock Headlight Beam Height

    I actually like the rake. Reminds me of some 1970s Mustangs with their rakes.
  2. Low / Medium Cost Audio upgrade

    I want to give a BIG SHOUT OUT to one of the products here... the door block-off plates from Sounds Good Stereo. The URL is listed in this 1st post above. I am upgrading my six-speaker XLT audio, one step at a time. Just installed the four door block-off plates. Holy Crap! What a darn...
  3. SE Michigan FDRS

    Yes to all three. The next time You're in Northern Virginia... ;)
  4. Added Spare Tire Lock

    Here is my thread from September 2024 describing both actions, with pics. FYI it took some hunting by the Service Advisor to find the correct way to order a lock which could be keyed to my car skeleton key... see below...
  5. Added Spare Tire Lock

    I installed a spare tire OEM lock on my truck, keyed by the dealer to my fob key. The Youtube back-of-lock defeat method can be blocked by capping the rear lock circlip with waterproof epoxy or with Liquid Electrical Goop, or similar self-hardening coating material. That's my method. Most...
  6. Road trip to Moab and Canyonlands National Park, including some light offroading

    Yeah. When I tested my chains, there was the potential for interference at complete full turns. From memory, the potential interference was with the ends of the upper control arms. The wheel had to be at full lock for this to even potentially happen. I tested the range and, personally, being...
  7. Road trip to Moab and Canyonlands National Park, including some light offroading

    Gotcha. I've had them on already this Winter. The issue, if any, lies with the front wheels and a narrow chain clearance on the outer limits of their turning radius. The rear wheels are fine with the chain clearance.
  8. Road trip to Moab and Canyonlands National Park, including some light offroading

    A trick known amongst some off-road drivers to significantly increase traction of OEM or basic street tires for temporary off-road use across rocky (i.e. slippery) or muddy terrain is the judicious use of modern thin snow chains with diamond-shaped segments that limit surface slippage in many...
  9. F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

    If I understand Your question correctly, then yes -- pls see the FScan changes for several camera views listed in the 1st post. I did them all, and I can see the sides,split sides, rear etc. at speed.
  10. Road Trip, how low is too low (SOC remaining)

    On my old Mach E and also on y current Lightning, I have found that the blue range ring on the Sync NAV screen is a very reliable gauge whether I can reach my intended charging stop. The one solid exception to this is when I was navigating the upslopes on the steep and long Rocky Mountain...
  11. Late Birthday Present from my son.

    I admire the craftsmanship of the execution and the interesting composition of the multi-material artwork. Especially the 3-d cutouts for the windshield, the front passenger window and the lower radiator grille of the Lightning on the blade... THAT took some effort to get right.
  12. Camping in cold weather - Lightning was a lifeline

    We go camping often as well. We noticed that if we fold up the rear seats, the rear flat floor space is pretty decent for sleeping. Of course, a sleeping mat / sleeping bag is helpful. Better that in the seats...
  13. Lightning Software Updates using FDRS

    These two will indeed drop off, eventually. If You've installed them to completion, then they are already installed... the list is basically an artifact.
  14. Setting the driver view to personnel preference

    Have You tried the "MyView" IPC center selector screen? In my experience, it can be set to pull in one or several selectable IPC center views to show there. I learned to use the MyView selector to switch between the THIS TRIP view and the CALM view and the TIRE PRESSURE view, selected by the...
  15. Lack of ICE causes a ton of Ice.

    I had the same type of buildup in the wheel wells this Winter here after the 2 snow blizzards. Especially as I tried out "Winter donut" maneuvers in empty business park parking lots during both snow events to learn the behavior of the truck in such conditions... about 30+ minutes each time...
  16. FCSP Software Version 2.112.125:3.15:3.15:3.15:3.15

    Hah! I have to upgrade my phone or find a friend with a newer smartphone, grrr...
