Just to be clear, there was no intention in my OP to imply that Lightnings are more prone to fires than ICEs. There was no intention to suggest that Lightnings are more likely to catch fire than any other EVs. As an owner, my only intention of posting this was to spark a discussion over the...

Yes. What are you trying to say?

Intention was to express that it looked bad for "the" Lightning. Not, "Lightnings". ;)

Well, the Lightning caught fire and is a write-off. So, it truly does not look good for the Lightning.

I do not believe that it was extinguished quickly. In follow-up, I understand that the vehicle was only able to be moved approximately 24-hours after the fire started, due to heat.

This popped up on my news feed. Doesn't look good for the Lightning...

Depends on the cost at the time to renew. Currently, I think it's in the $2500 (lifetime) or $400 (annual) range. Not a chance in a hell.

Ford adapter doesn't allow level 2 Tesla charging though, which is pretty annoying. does the rivian's?

I'd be great if this addressed the situation where: Your car is in park. You open the frunk. You close the frunk, but BEFORE it is fully closed, you put the vehicle in drive. This causes all sorts of issues and the frunk gets stuck. Requires manual intervention most times.

My tailgate opens and closes when it so damn pleases. I do not have agency over its decision-making. I am pretty much resigned to the fact that this is expected behaviour of the truck, so I haven't even bothered taking it to to the dealer. (see my previous posts for the damage this has caused)

What does that mean "If BC is technically available beyond 7 years, no additional cost will be required" Is this a lifetime subscription? I'd be into that.

We'll get the update once the majority of us are required to pay-to-use BC.

*oh ****, here we go again meme* I charge to 85% and plug in whenever I can. Nothing will change my mind except something peer-reviewed and specific to my year F150 Lightning.

The Park Assist scares the **** out of my family and frankly, it's a pretty exhilarating experience that makes the driving experience more enjoyable.

How did you do the replacements/additions? Did you follow any specific guides or document what you did? If so, can you provide them? I'm very interested in improving my B&O system's audio.
