  1. Ford Dealerships refusing service to Ford lightnings.

    Doesn't matter what a franchise agreement says. Facts are facts. Fact - many of us have had Ford dealerships refuse to work on our vehicles, even when they are EV certified, and the vehicle is in warranty. Ford has been advised of this, and their response has been to try another dealership...
  2. 9,000+ trip report - Summer of 2025 EV Great Adventure.

    What a great and unusual report. Terrific memories building trip. Thanks for sharing.
  3. 9,000+ trip report - Summer of 2025 EV Great Adventure.

    Folks, Long 2-month trip - a fairly short trip report. "Just the facts, Ma'am"... I picked up a(nother) 14-year old European nephew in NYC on 29 June 2025. We then spent 7 weeks and 5 days on a coast-to-coast trip and ended the road part in Grand Junction Colorado, where for lack of...
  4. Philly Area to Fort Collins Colorado Roundtrip

    Nice detailed trip report - thanks OP. We have just also completed a 9,300+ mile trip from NYC thru the Mid-Atlantic and the Midwest and out to Black Hills, Yellowstone & Grand Tetons, then the Bonneville Speedway :crazy::crazy::crazy: and down to Yosemite, then the SF Bay and down to AL / San...
  5. Leveled Avalanche Lightning (Eibach Stage 1 & 35" Wild Peaks)

    Shoot, I made a mistake going by memory (it happens more and more these days), my LT295/65R20s are 35.1x11.6 (12.5 as I stated above). I'll see if I can edit it now, but just wanted to make sure the incorrect information doesn't go to far.
  6. Leveled Avalanche Lightning (Eibach Stage 1 & 35" Wild Peaks)

    Thank you for the reply. I especially appreciate your update that the replacement control arms are advisable. Do you have a specific brand in mind? As for the Tremor wheels, I confess despite being fairly handy around cars wheel backspacing and offset has always confused the heck out of me...
  7. Leveled Avalanche Lightning (Eibach Stage 1 & 35" Wild Peaks)

    Just an FYI, I have determined that UCA are advisable, I will have this done before taking it to Hawaii (from NM), because once its there I need it DONE and ready to work, I can't be messing around with it and developing my property/home. I feel like it will be fine for a few more months of...
  8. Where’s the savings!!!!

    Many of the people that say that EVs are more expensive on a trip either a) never took a trip and have no factual basis or b) didn't plan their trip to be as economical as possible, or c) don't do maths because it's hard :crackup: They often forget that the truck was 100% full at home, and...
  9. Where’s the savings!!!!

    That still really depends on where you live. I can charge for less at level 2 chargers away from home. (Home charging is $0.34/kWh, and public charging can be as low as $0.28, and many are $0.30) Welcome to Massachusetts. (But same holds in many New England states, California and Hawaii) We...
  10. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    "Until you read correctly" Really brilliant statement considering it was ME, not you, who pointed out the 36kw tankless heaters...I also articulated exactly where YOU said 86,000w multiple times, so I suggest that you go back and read it again until YOU can read it correctly. Ultimately nobody...
  11. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    Once again you're completely wrong. I've been in the plumbing trades for 49 years. I can count on 1 hand the amount of whole house electric tankless heaters I've come across. Reason being is it would take a dedicated 150 service just for the tankless. Very rare to see a 400 amp panel, unless...
  12. Talk me out of getting this Lariat

    Well, I'm one of the loony Californians, , , for me my Lightning cost about the same as a ICE to operate, aside from Hawaii, I think we have the highest Electricity rates in the country. That being said, as mentioned in other threads . . I'm a TRUCK gal. Have owned a truck ever since I started...
  13. Any other Hawai’i owners here?

    @DiveMan911 is moving to Hawai’i with his Lightning in transit There several others who haven't been active on the forum for a while. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/search/2870799/?q=From+Hawaii&t=post&o=date
  14. No news must be good news.

    Another satisfied customer, though not perfectly: Keyless entry pad was disconnected at delivery (easy fix) Front parking sensors not fitted, contradicting sticker (not sure about fixing that) No known way but plastic film and tape to prevent nocturnal light show which interferes with astronomy...
  15. I did not have to change the time in my truck today!

    You could plug in a portable dishwasher. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=countertop+dishwasher
  16. I did not have to change the time in my truck today!

    The truck drives itself, communicates with satellites, and can be remote started from anywhere in earth with a cell signal; it better change the time automatically in every state except Arizona and Hawaii! Sheesh, for the price I'm a little upset it doesn't do my dishes.?
  17. Is this a scam, if so, what’s the scam? $32K for a fully loaded Lariat ER with 8K miles…

    Scam angle is… 1) Registration to bid, they’ll harvest some of your information from there. Whether it’s email, name, address, or hoping you reuse your password. 2) Payment. Congrats, you win because there’s no other real bidders. They can also withdraw the previous bid making you the winner...
  18. January 2024 Electrify America claims continued upgrades and more techs

    Below is an email today from Electrify America...does this mean they will become competitive with Tesla? "Hi, We’d like to share an exciting recap of all that was accomplished in 2023. It was a pleasure supporting your electric journey this past year. More electric vehicle (EV) drivers across...
  19. Roof antennas broken housing

    I think you could DIY it. See this thread - seems to be the same or similar enough: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/roof-antenna-corrosion-my-own-re-work.14580/ "...I carefully pulled down the headliner on both sides of the rear cab, and un-bolted the two roof antennas. ..." PS: since...
  20. Roof antennas broken housing

    Yes, I’m hoping to get reimbursed, but dealer support Hawaii is dubious (from feedback I’ve received locally from Ford owners). I thought I would do the work myself, if it’s possible…and recover the funds for the parts. There’s also the possibility that the shipping company decides not to...
