  1. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

    16 sheets of 1/2" 4x8x10' of lightweight drywall, 1024 lbs. Also had 2 bails of rockwool in the back seat area. Truck acts like it's not even there. I find the ride quality is even nicer with some weight.

  3. Leaving AC running with truck locked? - SOLVED!

    Since I do not have the sketch app, I took several large paper clips, tied some red ribbon and clipped them on the vents. Nothing like a nice visual showing air flow...

    OP, Do you pay for the full version of ABRP that includes the realtime weather feature in calculating charge stops?
  7. Solar home chargers

    I am Not affiliated with this business. You can purchase brand new panels with full warranty at prices as good as wholesale in small amounts. https://surplussolar.com/
  8. Solar home chargers

    I looked into a battery BU system/solar charger where I could add my own solar, portable panels/ground mass mounts, brackets on my deck railing as I have the space and use the system in my garage to top up charge the EVs daily and can also remove the garage mini split from the main panel and run...

    I'm not hating here... I just required more info as to make an informed decision like the lightning. I saw the lightning and said one day I will have one. Ran numbers and configured specs 2 years before purchasing. Picked it up just how I wanted it spec'ed. Watched 3 ev competitor trucks coming...
  11. Ford Universal EV Platform Announced: Innovation Meets Efficiency in New EV Platform, Assembly Process and Midsize Truck

    I can completely see that. Take the battery from the lightning and place it in the bed of a conventual truck, it's MPG from the weight and tail squat aerodynamics most definitely make that truck have a 270 mile range before gas tank refilling.... I couldn't resist the facts

    Ford authority recently published some spy shots of lighting looking trucks caravanning towing things. Perhaps those are test beds for the new battery and drivetrain platforms. www.fordauthority.com/2025/08/ford-f-150-lightning-prototype-spotted-testing-in-arizona

    What did I miss? I fell asleep... Oh what, nothing? That about sums up the presentation.
  15. No more Lane Centering while trailering?

    I wouldn't want the truck to try and override me during towing... Lanes opening up for exit on and off ramps, single lane opening up into a double, double lane dropping lines to left or right merge into a single lane, I need to take a viewable turn a little wider, blah blah blah. I hate it...
  16. Charging While Driving Works w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extending for F-150 Lightning)

    What I would like to see your team of great minds do, (not being sarcastic, I enjoy watching Martin's rebuild projects as it is very educational for me), is you have to go to the junk yard and grab a leaf, sol ev, really any smaller EV battery or a hybrid battery, build a an ambulance like...
  17. Charging While Driving Works w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extending for F-150 Lightning)

    I do commend all of you on your innovative approach and willingness to experiment. What you are proposing is great for charging desserts but we all know in actuality the cost efficiency just to run the generator is equal to some rates to fast chargers. However hauling a generator vs. 20 to...
  18. Charging While Driving Works w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extending for F-150 Lightning)

    Not really pathetic at 25% for gasoline efficiency... Basically that's really good for gasoline efficiency.
  19. Normal day to day stuff. Question

    On my xlt ER, on the infotainment screen, I set the "shortcut" to "drive mode" For the rare occasion I forgot to press the "ok" to keep it in sport mode. I can easily tap one spot on the screen to get back to drive mode then tap to reactivate sport mode... Just be ready for a jolt of...
