  1. Will you renew BlueCruise?

    I only got a 3-month trial when I got my truck (should have negotiated for more) and after trying to live with the regular cruise control I'm considering going back to Blue Cruise - either on a monthly basis when needed or buy the license outright and keep it with the vehicle permanently...
  2. State of Charge Vid: Tesla Supercharger (NACS) Extension Cable

    I plan on purchasing the NACS DC extension cable. With the 1.5m / 5ft. planned length of the cable, I'm hoping that it would allow me to back in the Lightning into a Supercharger stall. I have my doubts but maybe A2Z willing to make the cable longer just before production release.
  3. Vapour Injection Heat Pump - Technical Details for 2025 Mach E, applicable to Lightning design (?)

    Posted yesterday on Mach-E forum is a detailed technical analysis of the vapour injection heat pump (VIHP) that is coming to the Mach-E for the 2025 model year. It's my assumption that this is the same if not similar functionality and design as what is on the 2024 and above Lightning...
  4. We need a snow driving mode

    I disagree and believe that this is more of a driver problem than a problem with current throttle mapping. Also, regen is fine in winter conditions just as long as you don't treat the throttle like an on-off switch. How else have other EVs with regen and no way to turn off or dial down the...
  5. “Preparing cabin and battery for departure” no set departure time?

    I was wondering about this because I noticed it too. It was my assumption that the truck was warming up the battery in absence of a departure time to which @TaxmanHog has pointed out. I've observed that even on 110V (which what I'm still using), the truck is still trying to maintain a...
  6. 2024 F-150 Lightning XLT on Toyo Open Country A/T 3 tires + electric blue accents

    I have Nokian Hakkapelitta LT3s on my truck and I got the E-ply rating on mine. Yes it was overkill based on the Lightning's load requirements and I'm about 10-pounds heavier per corner. I went with the E-ply anyway because the diameter was the closest to the OEM 275-50-70 of the Platinum tires...
  7. Would you give up your Frunk for more range?

    There will be no need to give up frunk / storage space for more range as battery density is continually increasing year-over-year. What will be required after the ~20 year service-life of the original battery is the facility and service to replace the HV pack with a new one that is of the same...
  8. Tailgate Adjustment

    On the screen, you should be able to turn off the automatic tailgate so that you can manually actuate it and do your troubleshooting.
  9. EZ-PASS NY not reading on windshield

    Strange. I just re-read your original post and for me, I do have window tint even on my front windshield (XPEL Prime XR Ceramic @50% VLT if I remember correctly) and I haven't had any trouble in using the Toll tag. The bag that the tag comes in is an RFID shield, so I don't know if that has...
  10. EZ-PASS NY not reading on windshield

    Yes that makes sense. I think it was a good decision of them to use passive electronics like this to make it as seamless as possible for the customer. They also indicate needing up to 24-hours between registration and first use, which corresponds to their back-end workflows along with credit...
  11. EZ-PASS NY not reading on windshield

    I understood that by purchasing the tag, there would be some discounts or preferential pricing when using the toll network. I don't know by how much if at all, but I figured it would also be fun to have one.
  12. EZ-PASS NY not reading on windshield

    This is what I have. Per the labels it was manufactured in April 2021 but I purchased it in October of 2022. I most recently used it in November 2024. The instructions indicate that it is a passive tag (rather than a transponder in a technical sense), such that there is no battery and no...
  13. EZ-PASS NY not reading on windshield

    That's strange. I have the rectangular one that you stick on the inside of your windshield to and it has worked fine for me whenever I've travelled from Toronto to NYC and back. I just keep my EZ-Pass on the rubber tray that's on top of the dashboard, behind the 15" display.
  14. NHTSA Recall - Loss of Steering from Front Control Arm Separation (Impacting certain 2023 to 2024 builds)

    https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=24V949000#recalls480 https://fordauthority.com/2024/12/ford-f-150-lightning-pickups-recalled-over-suspension-issue/
  15. Tremor wheels with KO3 tires + Eibach level kit installed

    Do you know for sure if the dealer is able to configure the new wheel size? I ask because when I was looking for my aftermarket wheels, the only thing available to account for the speedometer error was a plug-and-play module that would have to be tucked in behind the driver's display.
  16. The Lightning’s Native Nav is Worthless

    The SYNC 4 Navigation does indeed have problems and the design decisions made are unusual, but to call it "worthless" is a statement of absolutes and is not helpful if we are to expect Ford to do a significant enough of an update to make the application usable. Part of why I chose a Lightning...
  17. Throttle pedal sticky

    Thanks for the great tip! I've had my 2024 Lightning since late July of 2024 and noticed the sticking throttle pedal. I'll spray that point with silicone lubricant once the weather warms up a little in the next day or so. For what it's worth, what I perceive with the throttle pedal is a slight...
  18. FordPass app 5.9.0 released for Android

    Strange. When I look up the app into on Play Store, I don't have bullet point #1 - maintain service records. The app version to be installed is 5.9 I'm on a Pixel 7 Pro on Android 15. My download size is only 20.01MB. Any ideas why there'd be a discrepancy?
  19. Any 3D modelers want to take a crack at this T3 sneak peek?

    It is obvious that T3 should be a departure away from the traditional pick-up truck shape; driven by aerodynamic efficiency for improved performance and increased range. I think some kind of blend between Super Van and the Pike Peak Lightning could fit the bill.
  20. 2024 Lariat - Heat Not Working Well

    I personally chalk it up to years of running my Volt exclusively in BEV mode. Imagine having access to only 10.4 kWh and max charging of 3.3kW AC in the early days with a relatively non-existent public charging network. I guess old habits die hard and compared to before, we're now fortunate to...
