  1. Sunroof “mod” for hot climates maybe cold too?

    I used to use the sunroof all the time on my previous vehicle. most useful was when parking in the summer sun I would crack it open 4-6" or so so heat could escape. But this worked because I had a manual shade pull allowing me to cover the rest of the roof. However, I rarely use my Lariat...
  2. More than 1.5 million cars recalled after bursting into flames while simply parked outside

    fuel for the fear that EV's are a fire hazard. I believe these are all ICE vehicles More than 1.5 million cars recalled after bursting into flames while simply parked outside
  3. The dreaded "STOP SAFELY NOW" message and the cause...

    your story gives me the shudders. We have a few chipmonks around our house I am trying to irradicate. I knew there were two of them and I got one trapped a couple months ago who won't be a problem any more. The other one doesn't show himself very often but last month I saw him sitting on my...
  4. Sure glad I bought an EV.

    The primary reason I sought out an EV was because of the sometimes reminders of the reasons we bought an EV just pop up and hit you in the head. My wife has a 2017 Honda Pilot which is a great car and one that we use if trips are longer than one day away. Before our 1800 mile trip last...

    thanks. I rarely driving in the rain so I'm not concerned, just a disappointed that Ford doesn't have their act together
  7. 25SB6/25V731 Rear Lightbar Inspection: Parts Available #73

    not true in the case of my dealer. there was no vehicle "released to me" They did an inspection and order the parts as I drove it back home. The dealer actually has one in stock but it's for another Lightning owner. all parts for mine are on back order.
  8. 25SB6/25V731 Rear Lightbar Inspection: Parts Available #73

    after Ford notified me that parts were available, I scheduled the inspection and confirmed that mine needed replacing. That was a month ago. Called the dealer and confirmed the parts are on back order. Come on @Ford Motor Company get it together, THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL. Does NHTSA...
  9. Charged to 344 miles?!

    same with me
  10. Mileage vs Speed

    this works for ICE vehicles too, of course. A decade ago traveling from Dallas to Denver I got about 18mph in my Chevy Avalanche. of course it's flat with a slight headwind. After wondering around the mountains for 3-4 days we cleared the mountains and from Denver to Dallas got 25mph! I was...

  12. 1st half Cybertruck and Silverado EV sales

    just and FYI for those (including me) disappointed in the discontinuation of our great Lightning, I note that Silverado EV and Cybertruck sales have completely cratered in the 1st half of 2026. The cybertruck crash didn't surprise me, only so many people want an ugly spaceship with a ton of...

    I took mine in 2 weeks ago. Waiting on the part.
  14. Blue Cruise renewal

    mine will expire in September unused for 3 years. I have no need for it and am not happy it's even legal. Driving is a responsibility not to be turned over to a computer.
