  1. Two Lightnings meet on a ferry while towing...

    Hey, that is me in the other, Everyone is Towing. And yeah, our horse was none to happy. He is “green” to Eventing, and after a long weekend of being worked he really did not want to be in that trailer. Maybe we will see you again next year, we do that trip (Port Townsend to Bow) for Pony Club...
  2. Everyone is Towing

    Cold weather and towing, really sticking it to the man.
  3. Everyone is Towing

    Two good looking trucks, both towing… amazing!
  4. 12 v battery tests good but it is going into low power mode

    This happened to me for the first time today (33K miles on the truck). Truck was plugged into the Ford Pro Charger, although was not actively charging (SOC was higher than the charge limit I had set). Overnight temps about 30F. I recently got the software update PT-25.8.5, which includes a...
  5. Charging While Driving w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extender for F-150 Lightning) - Testing

    I have also seen people with solar panels on their tonneau cover, which you could utilize. It would of course not add much, but there is the cool factor, and I am assuming a use case for camping/off roading.
  6. Charging While Driving w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extender for F-150 Lightning) - Testing

    I am no mathematician, but my rudimentary number indicate a potential 561 mile range at 60 MPH (2.4 M/kWh) with the extended range battery, charging at a sustained 11 kWh. I realize there are inefficiencies in charging, head wind, acceleration and braking, that will alter actual results. I...
  7. Surging towing light trailer

    As for the truck still showing low mileage on the GOM after disconnecting the trailer, you need to go into the Trailer app and select No Trailer. Even though you physically disconnect the trailer, it will continue to show the towing range until you change it in the app. (Note this is different...
  8. I'm still tripping-137,150 miles later.

    If you ever get this figured out, please share. I wish it would remember the last setting selected (off), like it did before the update.
  9. Whose truck worked great today?

    Everything has been great. Truck has a "full tank" and is warm every morning, and handles like a sports car. Oh yeah, it can tow my horse, haul hay, and dirt, and fit my family of 5. Granted, the ham sandwiches it makes leaves something to be desired.
  10. Stick to Rotary Shift Knob Conversion w/ 3D Printed Rotary Shifter Holder

    As a visual learner, I would love to see a video on the installation. If you know of one, please share. If not, hopefully, there is a brave soul that will record their work. And thank you to the OP for sharing; this looks awesome.
  11. Anyone figured out how to turn off the frunk beeping yet?

    If that is the case, I would be happy to help out. I use the truck multiple times daily, and we use the frunk daily (opening and closing via app, button inside cab, and manual button).
  12. Anyone figured out how to turn off the frunk beeping yet?

    Do you need access to the truck, or would you send the device, and we provide feedback to you? I would be happy to help, but am wondering what a "decent amount of usage" means. Opening and closing the frunk a lot, or something else?
  13. DO NOT BRING LIGHNING IN FOR RECALLS! Truck is dead at dealer. ***Update 10/16, fixed after 5 weeks***

    I am right there with you. Sensor and Frunk are scheduled for next Friday... so they have about another week of "learning" on other people's trucks. The only thing that gives me hope is that my dealer appears to understand the challenges; someone originally scheduled me with a "regular" tech...
  14. Anyone towing horse trailers? Euro vs US style

    I tow a standard 2H trailer. I get about 1.2 miles/kWh. I am using a WD hitch and I have the max tow package. With this setup, with the ER battery, I can get about 160 miles. Very easy to tow with, and with all the tech, I can hitch up by myself and for a novice trailer, I can easily backup too.
