  1. F-150 Lightning AC fully discharged at 40k miles – paid out of pocket, is this normal under Ford Protect?

    I've started experiencing the same symptoms and my code reader is indicating refrigerant discharge as well. My truck is at about 44k. Not sure how the refrigerant can vanish without there being a leak.... did they even try to explain that?
  2. Cancelled Ford EV three row design leaked

    Ford NotgonnabE, you mean
  3. The saga continues… I Love My F-150 Lightning. I Hate My Charge Station Pro. I Want A Refund

    Not a big expense IMO... plus it was effectively $740 after the money I made on the charger swap. Less than 1% of what the truck cost me in August 2022.
  4. The saga continues… I Love My F-150 Lightning. I Hate My Charge Station Pro. I Want A Refund

    $840 after my utility's $500 rebate. Ford didn't offer free installation for those of us driving 2022 models.
  5. The saga continues… I Love My F-150 Lightning. I Hate My Charge Station Pro. I Want A Refund

    I beg to differ... sold my FCSP for more than its replacement cost, so I got paid for my charger. lol Plus the cost to upgrade everything to be able to use 80amps was going to be a LOT more than what I needed for 48amp charging. I am leaving 32amps of charge capability on the table, though I...
  6. Free one-year onx Elite membership offer

    I read it the same way you did... each and every time I go back to the email. The fine print says one membership free, but the all the stuff you're meant to read is misleading.
  7. BMW i3 EV debut. 440 miles range is impressive

    Looks nice. Not nice enough to replace my e46 (2004) 330Ci convertible, though
  8. Cybertruck for a couple of days... Again

    But the Pacer was cheap, not so much the CyberUgly
  9. Consumer Reports 2026 Auto Issue - Best & Worst Cars, Trucks & SUVs

    seems odd that they would use different speeds for ICE fuel economy vs EV range... both are range determinations
  10. Cybertruck for a couple of days... Again

    I just can't get past the ugly...
  11. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Right, guess I'll just move into the barn
  12. My Lightning burned to the ground

    Tool batteries and my Lightning are all in the barn... maybe I should move my laptops and power banks out there, too... then I can have all the lithium in one place. lol
  13. $69 EV Registration Fee. Increases are annoying. What about your state?

    As of January 1, Michigan's fees are up to $260 after the legislature raised the gas tax and we got hit with a $5 increase for each cent increase in the gas tax due to another law tying them together.
  14. Anyone using Tesla Mobile Connector ? (the charger / EVSE)

    I used to used the Tesla mobile charger for about 2 years. Went through 2 different NACS to J1772 adapters but both worked until the first failed due to bad weather sealing. I had a rather convoluted set up in that I was plugged into a 30 amp generator circuit and had to have another adapter in...
  15. 3W Floor Mats Giveaway | What maintenance have you done for your Lightning this month?

    I cleaned out the accumulated junk in the backseat (I have a box for that), but otherwise.... haven't had to do anything since getting it back just after Thanksgiving from having a module replaced
