I still haven't picked up mine. I'm getting financing through Parsons and I sent in the buyers order on Thursday and haven't heard back. Sent a couple emails and left a couple voicemails.

Has anyone tested scales? When I jump into the flat bed while my wife watches the scale the line bounces a bit but the reading doesn't change from 0 pounds. Anyone test this feature?
My screen shows the max and min (0) but not an actual value. Just the green bar graph.

I took a week off from work (quit old job a week before new one) and wasn't on the internet that whole time. Congratulations to everyone that has taken delivery of their trucks and to the rest who have reached new milestones in their truck's journeys towards their driveways.

I'm loving driving my truck! I took it on a 200ish mile roadtrip where my son and I went to museums and a playoff baseball game. It was a great way to get to know the truck without trying to figure it out in rush hour traffic.

My morning commute is looking like the picture below. This truck loves rush hour slowdowns. While I don't enjoy sitting in traffic, I do enjoy the thought that I'm getting better mileage the slower the traffic goes.

Congrats, Sean!!! Time to start those fun adventures with your Lightning!
@Ford Motor Company why are so many of us getting our dates pushed over and over again? Original ship early September, now looking at early November. Cust services can only say it's sitting at the rail yard. What's up?

Mine is still at the dealer. Back and forth getting necessary paperwork from dealer to Parsons and back for financing. Error in buyers order and waiting for a new one from dealer to send to Parsons. Hopefully by next week it'll be here at my house.

Just got email from Ford telling me it's at the dealer. I don't know what to believe now (contacted dealer, waiting for reply)

I just got my FCSP installed. My truck has gone from 50% to 85% in the last 3 hours. I had one fault that stopped it after the first hour, so I lowered the amperage via the app to 70 and it's been charging ever since. Next I'll look into configuring the charge settings in the truck. Since I don't have a TOU electricity plan, it doesn't really matter when I charge it. I also pay $0.099 per kwh, so I don't feel like I need a TOU plan. Maybe this spring I'll get solar and at that point look into adding the home integration kit. Who knows?

Curious on your excellent 0.099 per kWh rate. Here in NY the Central Hudson electricity is technically 0.11384 per kWh but that is only the supply charge. There is also a delivery charge of $19.50/month fixed independent of usage, and 0.111/kw-hr to deliver. So the total electricity is 0.2245 per kWh. We can choose the supply company but Central Hudson always gets the delivery charge. The above is for Central Hudson to supply and deliver.

Does your 0.099 include supply and delivery and are those two components separated out on invoice?

Of course our supply charged are up big time since the Saudis are trying to tamper with US election midterms by hitting the consumer at a critical time. Of course the higher they go they just accelerate many people switching to green energy.

wow, simple, here is ours in NY. The only positive thing is the power grid is very robust. But still...
