  1. Power-Up OTA 6.8.0 - Smart Changes: Center Screen

    Just got the update this morning. Current battery % remaining now shows on the dash!! 🥳 This was something we needed since day 1 but I am not complaining- I am thanking - Thank you @Ford Motor Company !
  2. Leaves in the radiator? Why is it designed like this?

    Nice write up @Mike G !
  3. Leaves in the radiator? Why is it designed like this?

    Exactly! To those commenting that say crap gets stuck in all radiators - wow enlightening comment… but 1) they are vertical so when the engine cuts off leaves fall down and 2) they are not deep inside of a hole covered by plastic louvres. As for those aftermarket screens - yes I saw those and...
  4. Leaves in the radiator? Why is it designed like this?

    Fall has barely begun in Georgia and already have leaves back sitting on my radiator. Two obvious questions: 1. Every vehicle I have ever owned has a screen in front of the radiator. Why is this a massive hole in the bumper acting like a vacuum? Is it safe to cover it with a screen? I would...
  5. 2023 Lightning Lariat ER / Antimatter Blue / Leveled

    That’s funny when I looked at the picture at first I’m like it doesn’t look level. But then I just read this comment and noticed it’s up on a curb. Haha! Anyways looking good with those wheels. What size tire is that? Looks a little larger than what I have.

    ok yeah I’m not saying it doesn’t match. It does match. It looked like your darkened the rear glass as well. But it looks really good.

    Nice @mashiniblick ! What % tint you got on there? Looks darker than stock in the back.

    Nice truck @JerseyMike ! The lift looks good. I also like that you wrapped (or painted?) the plastic grill black to match the truck. That looks really good. As for the Nitto Recons - yeah so far big fan. The tread looks pretty aggressive but handle nicely on the road and I barely notice any...

    As for wraps - I'm curious if anybody has found a good headlight tint wrap to put on the LED light bar? I am *not* a fan of the milky white plastic look. Especially on such a dark paint job it stands out bad. On a white truck, probably wouldn't bother me. Anyways, I poked around this forum and...
  10. 2023 Lightning Lariat ER / Antimatter Blue / Leveled

    Thanks @nathanjaybar for the complement and upgrade ideas. I thought about the antenna but sticking with it as my parking garage warning device. As for impact to efficiency - so far this is all in-town driving. In normal flow of traffic driving I'm in the 2.3-2.5 mi/kwh range. If I go to sport...
  11. 2023 Lightning Lariat ER / Antimatter Blue / Leveled

    I can only compare it to the new 2024 Lightning Lariat I test drove from the Ford dealer before deciding "OK this is the future. Need to buy this." I drove that stock truck for about 20 minutes total. I've only had this for roughly a week, so it's not like I have tons of miles under my belt I...
  12. 2023 Lightning Lariat ER / Antimatter Blue / Leveled

    While I love all the mods, I can't take credit for doing them myself! I was searching for a used Lightning and found this one show up at a non-Ford dealer lot as a trade-in. It was on the website with a stock photo of white Pro model - it was so recently traded the dealer had not yet cleaned it...
  13. 2023 Lightning Lariat ER / Antimatter Blue / Leveled

Ford really nailed it with this...
