I’ve yet to see any Lightnings in the wild in Chicago too. I’ve seen 3 Rivian R1Ts though.

Both of those trucks are beautiful. I'm so glad there is competition too, to keep them advancing against each other.

Well, you did make a thread about it, so you weren’t expecting everyone to just say “ok” and move on, did you? ? I think the front end design is a step down from the 2021/22 ICE trucks too (the light bar looks pretty shabby when not lit imo). The value proposition is a tough one, and it makes...

I enjoyed that video, and I’m itching to go truck camping for the first time ever this summer. I don’t know where to go yet, but I’ll hopefully figure it out. I’ve been up and down about converting my reservation (apparently #8 at the dealer) to an order, since I’m loving my Powerboost. This...

This thread has me imagining possibilities. I just saw today a pretty good deal on this powered cooler. I can’t wait to go spoiled-camping in my truck.

Hopefully you can get a Rivian. I saw one a couple weeks ago in the wild (only one I’ve seen). They are cool looking.

Maybe they had you listed as eligible to order and forgot to tell you. I thought I heard offers to convert reservations to orders would expire around now if you didn’t order or extend. (Side note, my dealer called me a few days ago asking which model I would be interested in to send to Ford. I...

Congrats to all that ordered today! I've asked my dealer a few times what spot I'm at on the list (reserved 47min after the reveal on 5/19). He always says "I will check on this tomorrow for you" but I never hear back with an answer.

Thanks for that Wikipedia page on the revisions, @Bo15 . My truck was built in Oct 2021, and is currently on 21223_PRODUCT Rev 197, which isn’t on the wiki page. Things work, so I’m not too concerned with the software version I have. I may not ask the service center to do anything with updates...

Count me in with those that received the email. I reserved 47 minutes after the reveal started, so it’s little surprising to not get invited to order. I’m honestly not too bummed, though, since it saves me having to make the tough call between my Powerboost and a Lightning. The Powerboost is the...

I was looking forward to using the wireless charger. However, in practice, it makes my iPhone a red hot ingot of scalding. That can't be good for the phone's battery, and seems only suited for making really small pancakes on the inductive heating surface that is my phone. Instead, I have a...

Fair enough. Then that line item for its removal is straight up meaningless. ?

Yeah, like @RedTXV said, there’s no auto start/stop button on my truck, and it doesn’t really mean a lot with it being a powerboost. It needs to stop the engine to go into electric mode. Best I can figure, there was also an option to start/stop the engine at stops too, when it couldn’t go into...

The Poweboost is a darn fine truck. I wasn’t in wave 2 either, and I’m not that disappointed because the PB has spoiled me.

Huh, that’s messed up.
