I've been having this issue for a few months now. Thought it might be an isolated glitch until I saw others posting about it on Facebook.
When I'm in Sport mode, the truck will occasionally kick me out of Sport mode back to Normal. I'll get a message on the instrument cluster saying Drive Mode...
I just noticed today that if I remote start my Lightning, then while it's started...unlock it, and open the frunk my truck turns off. I did it twice to verify.
Slightly frustrating, as I was trying to load the frunk while my cabin was getting to an optimal temperature. It's not the biggest...
TLDR; Ford had the opportunity to capture a Market with their revolutionary product, they have let everyone including their employees down.
It's starting to be reported that most, if not all, of reservations have gone out. My thoughts are strictly geared to the consumer market (as Ford treats...
Well, on the heels on 4.2.1, I recieved 4.2.1.2.
After 4.2.1, I had an issue where the truck thought it was in a different Timezone (+2 hours ahead of me in PDT) for all charging and conditioning related settings. I deleted all my charge and conditioning settings, reconfigured them, and haven't...
To all of you with a MY23 experiencing FordPass connectivity issues:
This morning I recieved the 4.2.1 PowerUp update, I have been informed this contains the official fix for the FordPass communication errors.
For those of you who are still having issues, please disconnect your 12v battery to...
Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone here has found a stubby antenna which has a base width that matches our Lightning's?
I've tried a couple different ones and they all have a weird gap at the bottom due to how the Lightning's antenna stack is.
For those interested, I finally found a pdf of the 2023 Lightning Owners Manual.

Logged into my FordPass account today and noticed in connected services there was an option for me to activate Intelligent Backup Power. It seems in addition to purchasing the FCSP and having to coordinate with SunRun, Ford is charging a one time software fee of $500. I assume this is only for...
Interesting, they are going back and making people that have already ordered change their orders. They either need to select less motors or a smaller battery.

Just an FYI, there is a decent deal on a couple of adapters for Tesla to J1772 on Amazon today.
This is the one I picked up:
Keruida Tesla to SAE J1772 Charging Adapter Max 48A 250V Portable Fast Charging, Compatible with Tesla Wall Box, Tesla High Powered Connector, Destination Charger, and...
Well, I won't post links to a news source (so this doesn't turn into a political battle), but as of this morning the chances of a rail strike, in 2 weeks, are back.
This could be brutal for anyone needing their truck before end of year for tax credits.
When my truck arrives I'm considering leveling my truck. I'm not partial to lowering or lifting, either are fine in regards to leveling.
Having an SR though, I am curious...which would be a bigger detriment to range: leveling by raising the front, or leveling by lowering the back?
Having only...
For those that haven't seen it, this is the updated range/fuel economy on the MY23 SR Window Sticker (this was off a Pro, but should be the new range on all SR variants):
Since the only thing Ford changed to get these numbers was adding heated seats as Standard to the Pro, technically all...
Just thought I'd post this, I have a very early reservation for a Silverado EV. If I log into to their system to manage my reservation this is what it is currently showing me:
2025
Chevrolet SILVERADO EV
WT OR RST
Estimated MSRP (Excludes DFC*) Starting at:
$39,900.00
*Estimated Destination...
Someone recently posted a picture of a Lightning near the production facility in Avalanche color. Due to the color I'm insinuating this is an early MY23 model...
The truck itself looked like an XLT. Upon zooming in I notice the tire is "General Grabber" (picture below). Is this the same as what...
I plan on keeping my truck, externally, as close to stock as possible.
The one thing I will be adding on is running boards (for my kids). I'm trying to figure out which has a greater effect on range (negatively); the extra weight of a motorized RB or a standard RB which protrudes from the...
Just thought I'd put this out there. Another forum member has his 2023 Pro (ordered last month) already scheduled for production in October. Was that Autumn 2023 estimate just to scare people off that didn't want to wait?
