The wireless phone charging pad has a fan underneath that automatically turns on and off when you place or remove a phone from the pad respectively.

Interesting question, I have the Apple series 9 watch with paak, iPad with paak and iPhone with paak . I turned off the iPad and iPhone then just to be sure, put them both in a metal file cabinet. The Apple Watch paak still unlocked my mustang mach-e and the lightning! There is also a version that has its own cell phone connection, mine does not.

Here's a good feature: our trucks cool the motors and battery more aggressively when set to Tow/Haul mode. Doesn't matter if you have tow package or not.
Sport mode also does this. I tested both modes while it was still over 100F. I prefer tow/haul cuz it doesn't change the regen feel.

More of an observation or quirk rather than a feature:

The front driver and passenger powered windows roll down and up at a much faster rate than the rear driver-passenger windows.

Is this common across all F150s and generations or unique to Lightning? Is this by design or is it reflective of Farley's comments about challenges related to supplier integration resulting in different motor controller operations?
