  1. Farley doesn’t get enough credit

    After watching this interview I’m convinced Jim Farley doesn’t get enough credit for how pro-consumer he is and that he puts his money where his mouth is. I love how he really wants people to love their vehicles. It’s clear he is continuing to build a culture where an American automaker will...
  2. Phone As A Key VERY Unreliable!

    It's incredibly unreliable. It works, but depends on having the app open sometimes and near the door. It's more likely than not an interoperability issue with iOS 26 because I have had it work before the OS update. Hoping this gets better.
  3. Walmart adding DCFC at a pretty good clip?

    Yeah, Sachse had the change permit in and it was pretty quick. I think they prioritized the stations as a part of things station build out.
  4. Is this T3? August 11th "Model T moment" for Ford says Jim Farley

    Agreed with most in this thread - this will be a model Y or "ranger-esque" EV that is priced at $40k-$60k and be available in a year or two for purchase.
  5. iOS 26 to enable video streaming

    https://www.theverge.com/news/686046/apple-carplay-airplay-video-streaming-ios26 This will hopefully help by not having to add a black box magic box to enable streaming Netflix and others on that beautiful large screen.
  6. First Long Trip - ABRP ? or Just Google Maps and a prayer?

    Honestly the native navigation works just fine. The ABRP is great for prioritizing Tesla available adapters. Google is my last line of defense because it’s not entirely accurate with all charging networks. I’ve done four cross country trips and you’re gonna have a good time!!
  7. Farley believes he knows how to beat the Chinese on EVs

    Im with you. None of it makes sense. It’s more like they are bending to the narrative “FORD IS LOSING BILLIONS TO EVs!!!!” ?? I love this truck.
  8. Farley believes he knows how to beat the Chinese on EVs

    Assuming MY27 or 28. I anticipate we will see an announcement in 2026. Makes you wonder.
  9. Bluecruise 1.4 officially being sent out to F150 & Lightnings starting today (12/11/24)!

    I’m not confident that is true. As I understood one of the techs here, the front sensors csp was required for BC to be pushed or queued. It still seems it is only for EAP members. If it makes you feel any better, I had the update done a month ago and no BC1.4 here.
  10. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    This is new for me as of four days ago. While I agree that this happens infrequently at times, this is different. It’s broken communication with the phones as of 18.3
  11. Farley says Hybrid and Range-extenders are the answer for trucks (except fleets)

    I’ve said it before, he is laying the ground work to bail on EV strategy and turn the Lightning into a luxury variant.
  12. Where’s the savings!!!!

    My 2022 Ford Bronco has a 20 Gal cap tank and gets 17 Mpg running Premium Fuel in Texas @ $3.50/gallon. Getting ~ 340 miles total costing me $70.00 would mean $0.2058 per mile cost. (This doesn't include oil changes) My 2023 Ford Lighting Lariate has an ER capacity of 130 Kwhr at 2.3miles per...
