I have read that, I am just not sure how it works with Android. I also take my fob with me everywhere so not that big of a deal anyways.

That is a fantastic payment! I am currently over $1,200/mo. on my 2022 Lightning. I do a lot of mile which makes leasing harder, but it is definitely in the mix!

What are they offering for your '22? (If you don't mind sharing)

True, but headlights, taillights, etc. can still be damaged in a collision or by debris and those are unique to the lightning. Also - the EV specific control modules are the only things I have had fail on the truck - and leave me stranded ~8 hours from home with my family.

That is sort of true in my case, but not completely. The Lightning is actually my 4th F150. I used to be (and still am at heart) a HUGE Mustang fan, especially Shelbys. about 9 years ago or so I had a 2011 GT500 as a daily driver, then I put on a larger supercharger and had it tuned. After...

Gah! Don't tempt me!

Thanks - I had seen some posts about it being a good system, but getting a first hand account is always best!

Agreed that a lot of those are nice choices. My wife has her eye on a Rivian R2 when she decides to move on from her Mach-e. However, a mid-sized SUV doesn't have enough space for all of the gear I haul for the robotics team. I have done the math and I can make a 3 row SUV work (EV9, Rivian R1S...

I have looked. The ICCU issue that seems to be the main problem seems to be fixed for the new model year. One of the biggest reasons I am staying away from a used one.

Yeah - the cost of the parts, and repair service, is what really concerns me. The resale thing was more about doing something soonish before it tanks. Honestly surprised it hasn't already.

Yeah - I would agree with that.

Sure - here is my use case, which breaks down into 3 major areas. I think it really comes down to having a 4 person family and doing more road trips than you. Daily commuting / grocery shopping / etc. - both vehicles can do this easily, slight edge to the EV9 for maneuverability and parking...

So - I have been nervous about both resale value and (EV) parts availability ever since Ford made the cancellation announcement, so when I saw our local Kia dealership had some nice deals on EV9s I went in to check one out. A few days later and I have a Blue EV9 GT-line on order. As long as...

No idea. I haven't had a check done yet.

I have been getting that message intermittently for a couple months now. Only impact I have seen is that I had my first update fail for a low 12V battery.

Same here. Just got the alert a little bit ago and I have been happily using BC 1.4 since March of 25. No idea what it could be.

I checked mine last night and no updates since April 2025. Pretty much what I expected. While there I also checked my wife's Mach-e and it has had no updates since March of 2025.

How small the battery size needs to be really stands out here as well. The Lightning ER battery costs around $20k as best we can tell (if someone has a better number, Happy to update the math). If they can sell for $10k less, than the build price must be about that much cheaper, but you also...

21 Mach-e and 22 Lightning here. The Ford Options loan just matured on the Mach-e, but we are keeping it and rolling it over (get to keep the 1.4% interest rate) because it has been a great car and my wife likes it. As for my Lightning, I am not sure what I am going to do - I had planned to...

Eh - I can respect the invention of the assembly line, but given Henry Ford's Nazi-like philosophies and friendship with Hitler, I would be happy if nobody thought like that anymore.
