✅ 10/24 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

[indubitalist]

My problem with the FordPass app seems to have been fixed by FordPass I.T. remotely. I assume this is what happened, anyway, given that I'd put in a support ticket with them a few hours ago and now everything's working when it wasn't for an entire week.

I now have updated battery charge level and can control lock/unlock/remote start!

Picked up our Lightning yesterday, the easiest process once our private offer was located (I changed dealerships before ordering and was had trouble locating it.) We signed our finance papers and I already had the app installed and I was out the door. I felt like I knew more than my salesman so we didn't go through any of the options after the walk around. Trust me, I do know more thanks to this forum, reddit, and YouTube. lol

No ADM, Lariat ER came in under $80K, tax credits are good according to my accountant. All and all, a long way for such an amazing vehicle. Using the mobile charger until the Pro charger arrives in a couple of weeks. What a long process.

The railcar my Lightning is on arrived in Miami last night for offload. My delivery ETA also shifted from 12/13-12/19 to 12/25-12/31 on the Ford website, hopefully it's conservative and won't take that long to get trucked the final ~80 miles to the dealership.

Anyone have access to United Road tracking? My VIN shows up but I was denied registration to track in more detail ("dealership and customers only").

Truck landed at dealership

It's gonna feel weird, but looks like you can make the final update to your signature.

For you WNY guys who got stuck in the blizzard like me and don't park your truck in the garage I learned something; Don't park in line with the direction of the 2 day long 70mph+ winds because the LVB compartment is connected to the front where the louvers open and close... you might get some snow up in there

Thinking a radiator cover as seen on diesels might be a useful thing for blizzard conditions

 

[TaxmanHog]

Better yet. Close the louvers when Temps are low. Truck is parked and not DCFC Charging

I think next once in a generation blizzard event I'll just park it the other way

You can manually close them? How do I do that?
