  1. New BlueCruise Version 1.4 - Rollout IPMA-24.204.10.9

    You Rich Kids with a platinum always get taken care of before us poor Flash Boys. I turn 1 on Labor Day, Monday. Who knows what papa Ford might give me for my birthday. But ill never give them $50.00 a month for stale milk and bread. Rick
  2. 2025 Lariat ER extended test drive

    I would like to know how a ball Joint recall takes several days along with a brand new loaner.. Better check the loaner agreement. Pretty sure a college age kid can't drive the loaner..definitely not a rental, possibly a loaner? Rick
  3. Cheapest EVs to Insure in 2025

    What I found was all over the board when I bought my first 23 pro. My commercial policy with state farm wasn't really interested in insuring it as commerce so I went with my non commercial carrier who Costco farms out too. They were OK as long as i didn't use it more than a few times a week for...
  4. How to lock frunk so it won’t open

    They sell a tamper tape that can be applied to the gap between the panels..if the tape is cut, it's been opened. If it's intact, no need to worry..each roll has a unique serial number so it's not like they can just cut a new piece. Rick
  5. Priority Update: 24-PU0105-CMR-FX. Driver Monitoring System

    You got it 5 days before I did (8/22/25). Also a 24 Flash. So as not to be surprised, did you notice any improvements? Does this mean 1.4 is soon to come? Rick
  6. How to lock frunk so it won’t open

    He might have junk the frunk that he doesn't want to loose or take a chance with. I don't let my flash / worktruck get valet parked or leave the keys in certain lots. Between my personal softball gear ,multiple bats worth 250-300 each and plumbing equipment, supplies, there's no knowing if...
  7. Lease Buy-Out……. Yes or No?

    After seeing what the dealers were willing to pay for my 23 pro that I bought 3 months earlier. Truck had a 55 msrp. They wanted to give 35 towards a 24 flash. So basically a 20k loss from msrp.. Therefore I sold it on my own, and leased the flash. Let Ford take the hit. The truck will not be...
  8. Anyone get BC 1.4 before Walk Away Lock?

    I got karaoke months ago, useless. Maybe if Ford pushed out BC1.4 we might actually pay the $50. a month. My 24 Flash came with WAL, A feature i use a dozen+ times a day in the service business. Rick
  9. New Lightning owner puzzled at the slow AC charge

    Forget your 8kw. You're paying. 4.7 cents a kwh. Im at 27 cents. What cost you 3.03 for 63.6 kwh would cost me $17.17. Yes, my 40 amp charger is running at 39.6 amps. Rick
  10. Ford Lightning powered mobile coffee shop

    Last year our softball league had its annual picnic. Instead of a noisy generator , I used my new Flash to power the pop corn machine and hot dog cooker. Big success. Rick
  11. Just purchased used F-150 Lightning Lariat ER - Vehicle is fleet locked

    Unless you get updated to BC 1.4, you might as well use the Adaptive cruise control with lane centering.. you'll get 12 seconds of hands free before it reminds you to hold the wheel. For the 3 months I had the BC 1.2 in my 24 flash, driving on Los Angeles freeways didn't seem a whole lot...
  12. Fitcamx dash cam review

    You would think that insurance companies would insist all new vehicles with cameras make them live and record on an endless loop. Rick
  13. Ball Joints and Shifter safety notices

    What's the build date on your flash? Must be relatively new to miss the ball joint recall. Rick
  14. Upgrade just for the bigger battery?

    Sell the truck on your own. i was in a similar situation last year with a 3 month old Pro. wanted the flash with the ER. several dealers were at 35k on a 55 msrp Pro. sold it on my own for 45k, and was able to forward the 0 down 0% to the new buyer, but it took 5 weeks and i needed to have a...
  15. How to find your perfect Lightning (used)?

    You mentioned the truck will live on your farm. Don't worry about the blue cruise. Its pretty useless as the normal adative cruise control with lane centering is pretty much all you're getting , and it's free. As far as the 9.6 pro power, sounds like you need it as back up power or...
  16. Feedback on appropriate expectations for a Dealer

    The selling dealer that I'm not referring too has the parts. They offered to come out to me to do the work, problem is I don't have a 9-5 job in the same location. I could set aside 1 day when I know where ill be and have it done there. Difference is 1 dealer is stocked and wants to do the...
  17. Feedback on appropriate expectations for a Dealer

    I stopped by the other day at a local dealer for the ball joint nut recall. Not only do they not have the parts, but they would need to look at it before they can order anything.. I'm under the impression if the nuts torque out properly, all they do is replace the Nuts. If the Nuts are loose or...
  18. How to stop horn beep with walk away locks.

    Unfortunately I don't have folding mirrors on my Flash. But I do tend to fold in the driver's side when parked on the street. As far as a notification on Ford pass, does it show up and show the state of the door? There are times I just double check by asking it too lock. But is there a way...
  19. HOT AC and Battery temp. No fans

    Sounds like you bought them at South Bay Ford, 5 minutes from LAX. What line of work are you using them for? Would be ironic if you're an Hvac contractor? Sounds like you nailed it with the.fan diagnosis. 40 amp fuse is a heck of a fan. Probably 1/2 hp. Rick
  20. How to stop horn beep with walk away locks.

    That's very helpful but why would you want too? There are times when wal doesn't work and now you have no notification that it's locked. For me it's critical as the entire truck is a work truck.. Rick
