  1. Truck Campers vs Trailers what impacts range more?

    Good point. I've been driving tall vehicles (with 2-way radio antennas on top to boot) for decades so I am very used to it. I have a P-Touch label on the dash with the vertical clearance requirement. And I add another six inches or so for antennas. They will still drag, but not gonna break...
  2. Truck Campers vs Trailers what impacts range more?

    This goes WAY back. My parents had ski boats since before I was born, and bought their first RV trailer when I was less than 10. I towed both MANY times after I got my license. The boat and trailer weighed more than the RV trailer. Driving on the freeway, you hardly noticed the boat back...
  3. 2023 Lariat vs 2024 Flash - $50K-ish budget - Help me decide?

    Local dealers (several of them) can actually get their hands on any of them that the Ford website says they have in stock. It's really frustrating. Been trying to buy a truck for several weeks now.
  4. 2023 Lariat vs 2024 Flash - $50K-ish budget - Help me decide?

    My comments in red: With this, the flash is my way to go - now if I could only get a local dealer to ACTUALLY have any...
  5. Charging for winter storm/power outage

    Maybe your house. Less than two days for me - leaving enough to get to a charger. Once my son moves out, it will go down quite a bit - WooHoo!
  6. Silent Mode (dark mode). Useful for camping, astrophotography, astronomy...

    Very happy to see that mode is possible.
  7. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    That is good news. Hope that is true. From the public website, you can't see that. We will see. Hopefully I will be a Lightning owner soon...
  8. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    Only somewhat flexible on color - and I don't want white. And just for good measure, that one is not even available to look at (let alone test drive or sell) because it's in the shop for a recall. And yes, Colley is my local Ford dealer - less than 2 miles from home. I have been on the lot at...
  9. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    That may be the way it's supposed to be, but clearly is not. As I said, the same VINs were shown as in stock at multiple dealerships, and none of those dealers could even find them anywhere in whatever system they use. Same vehicles showing in stock for the past 10 days or so - and nowhere to...
  10. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    It gets more entertaining (frustrating). Looking around at inventory at multiple dealers in the area. When you search for in stock inventory at a particular dealer, the vehicle details listing includes the VIN as the end of the URL (it's not displayed on the page). Turns out that multiple...
  11. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    These are specifically saying that they are in stock, not in the "available withing 10 days". Kind of a bummer because I will miss the tax credit deadline...
  12. Vehicle availability vs what the Ford website says?

    Is this a common issue? According to the Ford website, my local dealer has about a half dozen Lightnings available. In reality they have one and it's currently unavailable due to a recall (and it's not one of the ones listed on the Ford website). What gives?
  13. No news must be good news.

    Nice to hear. Now if only my local dealer actually had the trucks available that the Ford website says it has.
  14. Rock Lights installed

    Maybe I'm wrong, but I understood the intent was for off road driving where being able to see the rocks is very useful. I would not use something like that on pavement.
  15. Rock Lights installed

    Nice idea.
  16. Ford EV Trucks still eligible for IRS tax credit in 2025.

    OK, now I'm in a hurry. I officially started looking yesterday for a new Flash. Gonna have to get this rolling!
  17. EAP locked Forum

    Saved the link to the EAP as it is something I will be interested in. Can't participate yet as I don't have a compatible vehicle. I'm going shopping tomorrow however. Might be a nice Christmas present for myself!
  18. Thermal Images of the Lightning

    Nice. A friend of mine has a nice FLIR thermal camera that I have used for a few things. Can be interesting to see what get hot...
  19. Show a picture from your daily commute!..

    293 days - but who's counting?
  20. One-pedal-turn off in icy conditions

    Granted, I have never - yet - driven a vehicle with one pedal mode, but at least in my current train of thought, I absolutely refuse to use it. I don't want my muscle memory in an emergency having to remember / think about which vehicle I'm driving. Besides my own vehicle (expected to be a...
