Another dumb newbie question from me. Since Ford removed the intrusion/inclination detection feature from 2023 Lightnings, I am considering having a Viper alarm installed that provides those features. I was wondering if installing a third-party alarm is likely an excuse to void part of the...

I "trained" for 16..5 years on a 2007 Honda Accord Hybrid, so I usually get 99% to 100% brake coach scores on my Lightning. :) Last night I went for a 34.2-mile drive that included about a 50/50 mix of Interstate and street driving with quite a few stops. The trip took over an hour. During...

I'm not very far into learning everything there is to know about my truck. But a simple thing I especially like is the Speed Limit Reader. I've read the posts that say the feature used automatically with Blue Cruise can be a PITA, and lots of folks turn off automatic speed adjustment by the...

Would love to hear from other Texas buyers out there what their dealer charged in processing fees. Here's my bill for my Lightning Lariat ER with Tow Technology, Max Tow Package, Spray-in-Bed Liner, and Plastic Floor Tray and Mats. The "Other Fees" is what I'm wondering is typical for Texas...

Sorry if I missed a pre-existing thread on this. If so, just point me in the right direction with a link. I was chitchatting with my neighbor, who has a new Tesla Model Y. He mentioned he's not worried about Texas summer heat in parking lots, etc., because his car will use some of its battery...

MotorTrend published an article yesterday on the ups and downs of the Lightning truck scales. The article notes they've been removed on all Lightnings built after 9/5/22 but concludes by saying Ford plans to bring them back at some point (nothing about retrofit). The article title puns on...

I think you get one or two free reads of Times articles a month. Sorry if it's behind a paywall for you. Seems like Dyer basically doesn't like Musk and thinks Musk's behavior and personality will eventually sink the ship. He confesses to initially being a big fan of Musk and Tesla. He talks...

Seems to largely depend on your state, but the Ford Lightning EV costs less to run than the F-150 Hybrid and the F-150 ICE vehicle (no surprise). CR ought to have a chart of how many miles you'd have to drive to recover the difference in purchase cost depending on the model! Consumer Reports...

I've gotten a bid from Sunrun to install the Ford Charge Station Pro and the Home Integration System and have signed the contract with the option to cancel up to the installation day. Yet nowhere in the contract do they state exactly what they're going to back up. I've told them if they don't...

Interesting report - someone will have to explain to me what Tesla's position on the chart means. Perhaps it means Tesla owners love their vehicles, too, but buy lots of other brands as well. Ford Owners Remain Least Likely To Be 'One And Done' Buyers (fordauthority.com)
