  1. My turn - won’t charge past 83%

    Mine is giving funky stuff too. Yesterday only charged to 55%, then gave charge fault warning (vehicle and app). This morning it had charged to 90% (normal), and only had charge fault on app, not vehicle.
  2. Traded my 2023 for a 2025

    I was just thinking he got the smaller ER battery in the 25'.
  3. Maybe you should’ve bought an electric car

    Price of electricity varies across US. Some areas like CA, can see stupid high peak pricing. Those rival gas prices. In times like this everyone looks at the saving of EVs with low cost electricity, then the gas prices will drop again, and we will be back to where we normally are. EVs don't...
  4. Grind or popping noise at slow speeds

    I have that kind of sound when turning. 100% stock vehicle. I also had a thud sound too. I believe its just the suspension, or a sticky bushing. To me the thud could be a wiring harness or something that is sliding on a turn and hitting a part of truck. I'm used to it now. I don't have...
  5. Reasons not to buy a Lightning?

    I tow an 8x10 utility trailer around town. Sometimes a golf cart in it, sometimes just moving furniture, supplies, etc. Every time I hook it to the truck, the truck automatically drops my range to 129 miles.
  6. Ford Employees Left Heartbroken Over Recent EV Cancellations

    The Lightning isn't coming back, the vehicle is now tainted. But can always hope for one in a decade after everyone forgets.
  7. First issue and it's a doozy... P0AA6 / P1A10

    Unfortunately I think you are stuck eating the cost. I learned this lesson on a previous vehicle years ago. To date, I only buy known vehicles, all high tech ones I lease. I also have an old extra vehicle sitting at the property that i can drive if one of our other new vehicles gets caught in...
  8. Cargo Trailer recomendations

    I towed a 5x8 enclosed trailer with a Hyundai Tucson across the county twice. Your overthinking this. Its a 1/2 ton pickup.
  9. Front turn signal overpowered by driving lights at night

    Round abouts are cheap. A standard traffic signal for an intersection runs $400k-$600k plus ongoing maintenance. I'm dealing with a push to lower taxes, which lowers my revenue, I am trending toward installing round abouts as a cheaper alternative.
  10. Leasees: What will it take for you to keep your Lightning?

    Leased a 24' Flash, 36 month, for low $300s. The end of lease buyout is way high. So If they extended my lease at a discounted price, I would consider it. Hell, I may even go out and lease an EREV too. They I would have best of both worlds.
  11. Question

    If you drive an electric car, do you have to listen to AC/DC, or does it have to be more current??
  12. No Full Charge. Too cold

    No, unless they is some way to verify via app or on screen. It histically charges really quick when its just regular cold.
  13. No Full Charge. Too cold

    I have FORD Pro installed on a 100 amp circuit that gives 80 amps.
  14. No Full Charge. Too cold

    I live in Iowa. last night we had the super cold freeze come through. Truck went on the charger at midnight (outside) and when I left for work at 8:00, it was only 74% charged. Yes, it was -10 degrees. I was at 30%. I'm just saying had I needed to commute a longer distance, this would of...
  15. Ford Lightning cancel you think Ford owe us a little love.

    I don't use half the "advanced" features int he truck. Most are annoying and I turned them off. Now, if Ford offered a good lease extension, I would consider that. Got 2 years before i have to worry about that. Will keep monitoring this forum.
  16. What is your thought about parts availability in the future?

    Just research. We know the cab and a lot of the interior is shared. Front suspension odds and ends some components are shared. Rear suspension is unique. Exterior body and chassis rails have been modified. Powertrain is unique. So this means a majority of major stuff is not interchangeable...
  17. What is your thought about parts availability in the future?

    Majority of body parts and chassis are unique to Lightning.
  18. Sensor Warning

    Mine does it all the time. Annoying. It clears up and then doesn't happen for a while. Mostly in wintertime, so I'm guessing salt, ice, grime, snow, etc.
