  1. Ford can keep their Charge Port Weather Kit

    This is why I use mine, as conditions occasionally suggest.
  2. Fog lights

    On the Fusion and the Mach E, I have photos. On the F150, unfortunately as I just found out after digging around for 12 months, there are none yet... THE LONGER STORY: Rear fog lights, mandated fir safety in several Euro countries before the creation of the EU, became an all-EU requirement at...
  3. Ford can keep their Charge Port Weather Kit

    I've used a Canadian all-EV charging port cover called Ma Capuche for years on two EVs. It's great for heavy snow and freezing rain/ice. Well-made, inexpensive, easy to use, effective and almost indestructible. Www.macapuche.com Their web site is in French and in English... user's choice on...
  4. Fog lights

    As good as the glare-free headlights are, IMHO our trucks (with glare-free) don't need front fog lights. However, I do wish we could get an OEM rear fog light option... after all, dense fog does occur in North America 🙄, and when it blankets a high speed highway the sequential collisions which...
  5. Ford Nav is better than ever!

    "Every person has their own taste". A famous 19th Century literary phrase, including in a well-known opera song.
  6. Buying used- How to ID Pro power?

    Welcome to this blog! As good as my Mach E was, the Lightnings are frankly better. My suggestion: get the Extended Range one. It helps with more than just the range. Good Luck!
  7. Battery Suprise

    In the Mach E near Friendsville, Maryland and now this past Summer in the Lightning near Wall, South Dakota, I... well, a gentleman never tells :sunglasses: but the displayed range did dip below 1 mile remaining.
  8. Lightning totaled

    Now I'm curious: 1. At what relative speeds did the vehicles connect? 2. What did the other vehicle look like? Better? Worse? About the same?
  9. Lightning totaled

    AIEEEEE! my truck is a 2023 in that exact color. So sorry!
  10. Farley says Ford is behind in EV (vs. Tesla and China) so Ford can't afford to "walk away from EVs."

    I suggest making one, very very easy and cheap, mod to Your family Mach E: change the rear window wiper blade which is a 12-inch long Escaoe wiper blade Ford reused, to a Bosch 16-inch long wiper blade. The extra 2 inches on the outer end make a huge difference at night in the rain, right on...
  11. Farley says Ford is behind in EV (vs. Tesla and China) so Ford can't afford to "walk away from EVs."

    75,001 miles on the odo when I traded it for the Lightning. Three (!!) front motors, all under warranty, but still... when the 2d motor started giving me warning signs and the shop techs told me it showed metal shavings in its Mercon coolant, I decided to make it the next guy's problem. The...
  12. Needed: torque values for the Lightning ER front and rear shock mounting bolts.

    I used a transmission support screwjack here, to good effect. Its two ears held the bottom of the shock in position.
  13. what are these parts?

    Hmmm.. it looks to me like they might be actuator motors for the lower front air dam. It's a guess though.
  14. Ford Nav is better than ever!

    This thread reminded me of the interminable Word vs. WordPerfect discussions of the late 1990s (I was a WordPerfect guy, of course :crackup:). Or of the Harvard Graphics vs. PowerPoint discussions (yes, I was the Harvard Graphics guy).
  15. Ford Nav is better than ever!

    Chacun a son gout. However, with a little exploring to learn its capabilities, Ford NAV is pretty decent. It seems to me that many folks these days, especially those of us with a smartphone always in hand, haven't played with Ford NAV for long enough to learn its strengths. It's a free...
  16. Ford Nav is better than ever!

    I always liked the Ford NAV and now I like it even more.
  17. Silent Mode

    FYI - The big display did have that option on the Mach E Mustang. They appear the same (I now have the small 12-inch display on my Lightning so this is a guess from afar). Re: the Silent Mode question by the OP: we find it very useful when we camp, which is often. No sense in blowing our...
  18. Anybody use WD-40 Electrical Contact Cleaner on the Charger or truck socket

    DeOxyIt is the way to go for any type of electric contact cleaning, tiny to (relatively) large.
  19. Farley says Ford is behind in EV (vs. Tesla and China) so Ford can't afford to "walk away from EVs."

    Ford has already started with a ground-up EV car, with design and pretty good sales of the pretty successful Mach E Mustang, a ground-up EV platform which I had the great pleasure of pretty much driving into the ground (this is meant as a compliment to that car).
