Sounds like your Vin number got entered wrong . I don’t think this has anything to do with the current administration being anti-anything. Personally, I’m glad we were out of the green movement bull crap. Also glad the tax credit went away even though I took advantage of it twice. I feel like...

I’m gunna say because there aren’t enough techs well trained on these trucks there aren’t many of them and most dealers never committed to the ev to start with. So I’m going to say, it’s the lack of proper training and lack of qualified techs due to low pay and low warrenty hours paid for...

It’s of no relevance , that time has passed it’s a different market today any purchase past 60 days is irrelevant at this point . There are no more deals to be had like that today .

I personally wouldn’t , just know you won’t be able to trade it in or sell out without a huge loss once you own it . Personally don’t think it’s cheap enough to warrant consideration , your not saving enough off a clean carfax truck IMO.

The app has been buggy for me lately , I also get O miles of range shown on my app occasionally and 10 minutes alter it will show 200 miles at 90 percent (SR truck ) this will Go on and on continuously .i suspect your app is buggy

My question is how does this affect those of us who have replaced the TRM and installed a factory TBC ? I changed some setting for turn it on and the lines in the module code is not as built .

If I had a Need for more than 48 amp charging I’d get that thing replaced and sell it , but an 80 amp Grizzl-e and be done with the problems .

A bulging battery case is a sign the battery went dead in the cold and froze ….

I would never use a driver assist towing , always do it yourself the computer can’t see what’s going on up ahead far enough to anticipate a sudden stop it’s reactive , as a driver you can be proactive towing , you see brake lights ahead and lift in anticipation of potentially having to stop the...

If possibly low xharhe to 100 when the weather is cooler it’s far better for the battery . High temps and high SOC together are what degrade the battery .

I would have left the HV battery between 50-70 percent and put a maintainer on the 12v . I wouldn’t leave the truck plugged in that long , Since your not using it there is no benefit unless it gets colder than -40 F there then it does make sense to leave it plugged in.

Beating a dead horse ….. they have to for 10 years after that your on your own parts wise Specific to the lightning . Ford has completely abandoned and discontinued. several common parts for there very popular mid size fwd cars leaving owners withbbad BCMs, and pcms scrambling to buy used ones...

All these trucks need multiple 12v batteries if they are low Mile short trip trucks … I wouldn’t worry about it if it’s not a branded title truck your fine

Really who cares if he regrets it ? How could he not? It’s been a financial disaster for ford, most of which they brought on themselves for bringing to market a truck that couldn’t be produced at a profit and for selling it thru existing Ford dealers who were clueless about the product and who...

You just explained why the majority of people have no need for 80amp charging. Most people don’t come in every day with a dead battery. I used a 16 amp 240 V for my lightning for a year no problem at all. I came in one time at 35%. It was 90% the next morning, ready to go. I only have the...
