Is it Star White or Oxford White? Please share your impressions and more pics today and congrats!
Star white. Day two of driving- figured out how to use the Blue Cruise on non highways today. It’s absolutely bad ass. Stops itself in bumper to bumper traffic. It was nerve racking at first but love it now. Did DC fast charging on it this morning. 67%-80% 10 minutes. 127kW peak charging rate. Very good experience since I only have my 120v at home. Still waiting on Pro Charger at home. I drove it up to 140 miles today and I didn’t want to get out of it. Time to go for another ride.

Is this just the pic angle or is the hood LED lower than the Headlight?

Bunch of folks have noticed that,even months ago from YouTube videos reviewing pre-productions models. I think we figured that ford might notice that and make an adjustment for the production trucks. Not sure they did though. Not a deal breaker from my perspective...but am with ya...definitely noticeable.👍

You hit 127kW during the 67%-80% session? That is a bit better than @tommolog 's theoretical charge curve.
That's totally normal. If you plug in at a high state of charge, it will pull more power initially then what you'll see on a full charging curve. If you look at my video, that's what happened to me when I plugged in at a high state of charge during the media drive. The charging curve will look differently depending on what state of charge and what temperature you plug in it.

The king has spoken 🙌🏻 Lol. All seriousness, Tom’s videos are how I learned about EV’s before I even owned one. I encourage all of you to at least watch the ones on the F-150 Lightning.

I hadn't noticed that before, I'll have to look more closely.

No you’re correct, it’s not lined up properly. I think a couple bolts loosened, correct it and tighten back up. Should be a quick fix. However idk if the dealership knows how to do it yet lol. Gonna stop back in on Monday to get my garage opener from my old truck. Left it in there with all the excitement lol

Great color, I went from Red, inf. Blue, antimatter, then white. I figured if I changed again my dealer would never finalize my order!

I changed my color prior to ordering 75 times. Tried to change it with the dealer after ordering but it was too late. VERY happy I didn’t change it
