  1. Ford’s F-150 Lightning is falling behind Tesla’s Cybertruck in deepening EV crisis

    I'll make your claim even cleaner; all regrets/complaints about the lightning are rooted in expectations set by the manufacturer not being met. This strikes at the core of the issue. Owners have no problem spending what they spend if they receive what they were promised. Owners have no problem...
  2. Ford’s F-150 Lightning is falling behind Tesla’s Cybertruck in deepening EV crisis

    And when your battery degrades, the first thing they'll point at is the fact that you charged to 100%. Furthermore, it's not only the off-the-bat 10% loss, the overall volatility of the range is a huge compromise vs. expectations. Thus, the article we are discussing. It's not a user problem...
  3. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    Funny. You are about as correct in this debate as you are funny. Facts are presented to answer the question, and for some unknown reason you jump in with non-sense. The facts are simple for anyone who wants to find them, for you however, I fear they will find themselves just out of reach. And...
  4. Ford’s F-150 Lightning is falling behind Tesla’s Cybertruck in deepening EV crisis

    That's simply not true. The Lightning advertises a range of 230 miles, everyone on this forum demands that you never charge the battery to above 90%. Off the rip, you are at 207 miles of range. Factor in weather conditions, driving speeds, and altitude changes, the lived range is 160-180. The...
  5. Hydroplaning

    Yea, I’m coming from a Forrester that never slipped once in 5 years of having it. It was truly exceptional. The lightning has been largely fine, but in moments has slippage in icy and snowy conditions that are less than confidence inspiring, especially for a truck.
  6. Hydroplaning

    Interesting to note. Perhaps it has to do with the power delivery to the wheels. I've noticed that the handling in the snow is not nearly as capable as my last vehicle. It would be widely considered that heavier, lower of center vehicles perform better in wet/snow conditions, but the on-road...
  7. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    You’re losing the plot. You claimed that there is no material difference between 1 and 2 pedal driving. Then proved that there is. The question asked was why are people not using 1pd, the reason you are now giving “regenerative braking” is what I said when I called in “drag”, in order to...
  8. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    I honestly think you might need to read up on the subject we are discussing. Specifically, the following claims. 1.) There is no drag effect while using 1pd. 2.)The effect is the same as if you were using 2pd [hint: you are conveniently dismissing the free float period before brake...
  9. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    The point of that detailed explanation was to prove that 1pd changes driving characteristics. One of the commentators stated that they were able to overcome them with a driving style modification. I was simply highlighting that this driver is now creating a new problem, which is that they are...
  10. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    You see, this isn’t a matter of opinion, but one of fact. The feature is based on leveraging gravity and friction to harness it into re-generative power. What you are saying is that you have found a way to harness the energy, without any changes to the mechanics of the vehicle. That you are...
  11. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    Good day! Here's another example illustrating what I mentioned earlier. The purpose of this post is to explore why people choose not to use One-Pedal driving. I’ve outlined three concrete reasons to explain this behavior. What you’ve done mirrors a common response from early adopters—...
  12. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    And I appreciate that immensely, and respectfully! You do you. My point is that 1 pedal driving requires behavior modification and learning a new way to solving old problems. Which is a characteristic of early adopter consumers like you and I. There is however a finite number of those willing to...
  13. Curious why some do not use 1 pedal driving.

    This is a great question that true to EV biased form, I haven’t seen the real answer. Which is this, one pedal driving changes the physics of how your truck handles. The most noticeable is that there is a consistent drag on the vehicle. So the inertia of the passenger experience is completely...
  14. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    I definitely should have hung onto my last car until this year, at the very least. Between the 0% 72-month financing and the Flash edition, it's an absolute no-brainer in every dimension. I can only imagine the pain those who picked up before me [Nov 2023] are feeling or going to feel, as it...

    If peeing your pants is cool, call me Miles Davis!
  16. Charge port decals?

    Perhaps that was the case, but as of August 6th 2024. Tuffskinz offers OEM licensed, charge port lettering in a few colors.
  17. Tufskinz Charge Door Port “Reflective Topo” Sticker Install

    Just slapped these on and figured I’d share since I haven’t seen em’ on here yet! Very subtle, [which I really like]….debating on whether to do it on the tailgate however…
