  1. Study: Less than 1% of EV owners would go back to gas-powered vehicles

    Volvo is activated and the 25 EX90, EX40 and EC40 are all supposed to come with the adaptors. our kids are all grown, but one has generously given us 3 grand kids, so the third row will help from time to time. I am switching out of my V90 wagon in order to get the EX90.
  2. Study: Less than 1% of EV owners would go back to gas-powered vehicles

    If you want a three row BEV SUV, you might want to consider the Volvo EX90. The base version is very well equipped and comfortable.
  3. Looks like your F150 Lightning battery might last a long time

    Why is charging once a week bad? Shouldn’t you charge when needed? I try to keep my Lightning between 50 and 80% SOC. And, I only charge to 100% for the initial leg if going on a trip.
  4. Charge Station EV conversion to $4.50 per gallon @18mpg

    Interesting tid bit . . . Apparently, while the US produces a substantial amount of oil, most of it is exported because our refineries cannot handle the grade of oil that is extracted here. Thus, it appears that most of what we use is imported from other countries.
  5. C-Pillar Crushed, need repair in Seattle

    I find it hard to believe the ACV is approx $30K when I see other similarly equipped 2022 trucks going for between $40K and $50K.
  6. New 2022 F150 Lightnings for sale

    Maybe because it is a standard range? Also, what is the true value of the truck now that it is essentially three model years old? (Yes, I realize that the 2025 Lightnings are not out yet, but other 2025 Ford models are starting to hit ground at dealers).
  7. Wheel Well Liner Misshapen/Misaligned

    If something is going to drive me nuts, it’s going to be the misalignment of the hood/light bar on the drivers side of the hood. Seems to be a common problem with the 2022 models.
  8. 2024 Colors - What on earth were they thinking?

    Welp, for 2025, both the GMC Sierra EV and the Silverado EV will be offered in some exciting colors (Chevy names): 3 different blues - one of which is a matte color, orange and slate gray. This is in addition to black and white. Ford should take note.
  9. 2024 Colors - What on earth were they thinking?

    I so glad I was able to get Ice Blue Silver in 22. Ford is not alone with boring color palates. Several other manufacturers have done the same thing - allegedly in the name of customer color preferences. I recently read an article about this phenomenon and the changes since the 1970s. The...
  10. Rear-ended, $13K in repairs!

    Another reason to get a Ford Lightning over one of the other trucks. The OEM parts bin.
  11. Pissed a little ( well maybe more)

    I like that idea - especially with the significant depreciation!!
  12. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    Believe it will be a dealer installed accesory
  13. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List (MSRP & Invoice Pricing)

    First family car I got to drive was a 1972 Plymouth Fury Custom Suburban station wagon.
  14. Glare Free light operation

    I doubt that you will find a Ford dealer willing to turn them on since the proposed US requirements are apparently far more strict than most other countries, including Canada. Would be nice if NHTSA did not have to reinvent the wheel.
  15. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List (MSRP & Invoice Pricing)

    But it rides like a fancy car and has the cabin space of a full sized car from yester-year when both you and me were kids! 🤣😂🤣😂
  16. Can full size tire be stored under the truck in place of the factory spare tire?

    It does. I have the 20” Lariat wheel with a matching tire.
  17. Automatic speed adjustment for Speed Limit Sign

    Another better idea from Ford. How do I turn it off? It’s problematic when it sees speed limit signs for parallel lanes (such as HOT/HOV lanes) that have a higher speed limit and all of a sudden you are zipping along at 70 in a 55 next to a state trooper.
  18. FordPass App No Longer Completes LogIn Sequence

    This morning, I went to use my FordPass app on my iPhone and iPad and they both required me to login again. When I did, it got stuck on the Ford splash screen with the Ford script logo. What the heck is going on? I did not update the app from the App Store and am not aware of any changes. Any...
  19. Help: Can't Decide - Tire Replacements

    What is the Goodyear tire that Ford is now using to replace the all season General? (Found a picture - it’s the Good Year Wrangler Territory HT tire.). Does anyone have any experience with this tire? Is it as good as the Michelin Defender? Is it more or less efficient (range wise) than the...
  20. 20,000-Mile Service

    I totally confused my service advisor that I was bring my truck in for 10K oil, filter and lube. Had to explain to her that it was just an expression used for service, or in the case of my kids back in the day, their annual physical at the pediatrician.
