Basic financial advice says don't buy insurance for something you can afford to pay for without insurance. What is the most expensive thing that could go wrong with a Lightning and how much would it cost to repair?

Trading a $7500 discount for a tax deduction on loan interest is good news?

My '22 Platinum has BlueCruise 1.4 and walk-away locks. If others don't have it, they will. Massaging seats are THE reason to upgrade to a Platinum. I wouldn't consider one without them if I already had a Lightning. My truck has max-recline but I've never used it, FWIW.

Until you try to enter a parking garage.😮

This happened to my truck as well. Both motors were replaced under warranty. If it's stuck down it will eventually be ripped off. My air dam was also removed by a truck tire. I don't recall what the repair bill was.

10,000 trucks in inventory doesn't sound like a crazy number to me. The article seems like a pile-on. I'm fine with that.

I've had water in them in the past and now there's not water in them. Seems self-correcting, at least in my case. I wash my truck regularly and it lives outside in Michigan.

Is your truck a pretty princess or is it FORD TOUGH? You can drive across those pathetic weeds at any speed you want. I recommend doing donuts over them so they know who's boss!

The oldest Lightning is three years old. Battery degradation over time is still a theory. You might be right but treating your battery kindly is pretty easy for most users. If you are wrong it could be very expensive.

Off topic: I had forgotten how early they started deleting massaging seats. OP's is a June build. Strange times, 2022 was.

Six weeks at the dealership is ridiculous. Six weeks without a loaner is doubly ridiculous. Whatever they are saying to your brother might sound reasonable, but it's not. Anything other than, "we have made your truck a priority and it won't leave the bay until it's done," is BS.

Please expand on your initial post. What exactly isn't working? What trim is your truck? When did you buy it? What has the dealer done or not done? More details are better. You might provide a clue for someone with a similar experience who can help in some way.

What is the process to drain the coolant? If one were okay with dumping coolant on the garage floor is draining the coolant even necessary? Whatever is above the valve will spill out. Maybe that's fine? Is there more to bleeding than running the truck and checking the coolant level? This...

Does it come off that easily? Yours is the first one I've heard of and this thread didn't exactly blow up. I think you just got a little unlucky. Based on this site, I think batteries fail more than tape. 🤣

Not all trucks are PaaK capable. I suggest adding a third category for trucks that aren't equipped or specify in the question that it's for trucks that are so equipped.

It might. But in theory, the locals who were clogging up charging stations won't be there and you'll get to your destination faster. Maybe, if it's so busy all day long that higher prices kick in. Or you could just pay more for the convenience and get there sooner. That said, it's all about...

The connections are rated for the weather. If I had to guess, that tape is there to make installation slightly more ergonomic. Definitely trim the tape. Replace it if you want to but I'd consider it optional. I bet $1 a dealership will just cut it off and call it good.

More capitalism in the system seems like a good thing to me. If you are price sensitive you'll figure out when charging is cheaper. If you are time sensitive you'll be able to charge faster but you'll pay up for the privilege. If course, what I said above matters not to the folks with lifetime...

It ain't Ohio.

@Jesse-Infotainment, what does reprogramming a taillight sensor entail? FDRS is required, I presume?
