Got my 2024 Flash in the beginning of November. This is my 8th EV, but first Ford EV. Enjoying the truck and patiently waiting for Blue Cruise 1.4, hoping it does better on curves as advertised.

Welcome to the forum and to the Lightning. It is a good truck, and I likely don't give it enough credit. However, if any of those 7 previous EV'S were a Tesla or Rivian, etc. you might want to start to lower your expectations of the Lightnings SW and battery technology now. Plenty of reading here on the forum.

BMW, GM and VW, so far have had 4 OTA updates on the lighting in a month, so maybe they are getting better. The VW was terrible, so it has to be better than that. I’ve been reading up on the issues and it seems a lot of them have been resolved on the 24. Fingers crossed they have most of the bugs worked out. I had a 2022 Lightning Lariat that I ordered come in, but I backed out. $90K at the time seemed like too much.

24 Lightning Flash
We just signed a contract for a 24 white flash. It’s on its way to a dealer in CA, and then we will ship it to Hawai‘i Island. Looking forward to getting it next month. Pics to follow when it arrives

I like your attitude. Momma always told me ‘Live in Hope or Die in Despair.’

Welcome aboard.
