  1. Dealership Claimed EV Tax Credit without Permission

    Many dealerships collect a power of attorney form for things related to registration or titling paperwork in case someone made a mistake and they have to correct a form. I could see a slimy dealership using this POA to sign and collect the rebate. The people in the finance department are the...
  2. IRS Notice CP99D Transferred Tax Credit letter 2025

    I got my letter today for my Tesla purchase in March 2024. I never like receiving mail from the IRS.
  3. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    I was on the fence between a new F-250 and the Lightning. Excess home solar and not wanting to feed a 13 mpg gas F-250 made my decision. My lease payment on the Lightning is about $1K more per year than the anticipated fuel bill for the F-250 I was looking at. My work truck for the past 4...
  4. Charging cable run under garage door

    Their website and installation videos recommend installing both to prevent garage door damage. Not a big deal, but I’d never use one on the opposite side of the door away from the charger.
  5. Charging cable run under garage door

    I’ve been considering this as a solution. My garage has a concrete lip that the door closes in front of, I’m not sure how well the Undoor would work without grinding a little concrete on the lip. From an install video it seems like I’d need to install something of similar height on the other...
  6. i need serious help on this decision

    These numbers are why I leased my Flash, my three year lease will cost me less than your 18 month depreciation. I don’t typically put more than 10-12K miles on my vehicles, so leasing works in my situation.
  7. The not-quite-a-boom-arm charging cable management

    Sounds like a good setup. The kitchen in our house sold the wife, the 34’x21ā€˜ garage and matching 34’x21’ shop with mini split sold me. I should do something similar, we are using one Tesla charger for the Y and Lightning. I was thinking about using a pair of weldable hinges and 1x2ā€ square...
  8. i need serious help on this decision

    i wouldn’t make this deal at this point. You might do better finding a leftover or used Lightning if that is the direction you want to go. You can add an extended warranty and drive it for a long time. If you do decide to proceed I would quickly save the $10K and pay off the negative equity...
  9. California Stops Some Clean Air vehicle mandates

    I understand what California is trying to do, but they are effectively regulating interstate commerce by trying to strictly control emissions on diesel trucks, trains, refrigeration units in transit, and ships that carry international goods transiting CA ports to deliver to the rest of the...
  10. Tripping Pro Power breaker with 120v welder

    I’ve had my truck a week, but I haven’t had the need to test it with the Miller 190.
  11. Tailgate struggling sounds ?

    Mine new Flash tailgate is slow and sounds of struggling. I’m debating on shutting it off and seeing if I like it better.
  12. ford to tesla charger - warranty issue?

    There is nothing in the individual adapters that will tell Ford it wasn’t approved, so use whatever you’d like. I bought A2Z and it works fine. If Ford wanted me to use their adapter they would have it available for sale on their site or included with my truck.
  13. Tesla discounting the cybertruck

    I see what you did there, but I’m talking about the douchebag youtuber who destroys nice stuff for clicks. I love all the stuff Elon Musk is doing for the past couple years, that’s why we have a Tesla Y in the garage. Hard to argue with Chopsticks.
  14. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    I would’ve entertained the Cybertruck for the same money. I like the aesthetics of the Lightning better, but Tesla has the best EV software and charging network. i really like everything Musk is doing for the past couple of years. If I were buying again today with the same financials as when...
  15. Sunvisor Homelink Swap - part # number and DIY

    Agreed, for $259 I’ll use my remote.
  16. Tesla discounting the cybertruck

    I hate that guy. I refuse to click on any of his crap content so I don’t contribute to monetizing.
  17. Tesla discounting the cybertruck

    I always click the box to not show fuel or tax savings so I can see the real price. Where I live at 39 cents per kWh there is no fuel savings vs gas.
  18. Sunvisor Homelink Swap - part # number and DIY

    Is there a thread on the home link mirror? I wouldn’t mind adding that on my Flash. Nevermind, I did a search: https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/adding-homelink-interior-rearview-mirror-to-2024-lightning-flash.22805/#post-442900
  19. Sacramento to Monterey Bay, L3 charge at 180+ kw

    I tested mine in the cold the other day, topped out at 124 kW. The battery wasn’t warm from sitting on a 29 degree day.
  20. Are there any real bidirection chargers available?

    I’m interested in this one from Enphase since I already have their hardware for my home solar. I don’t expect current vehicles to be compatible, so it won’t help me until we upgrade from our current Model Y and Lightning...
