  1. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    I can't seem to add the 1.70 branch to my HACS, says it's already available, but the listed branches in the options there only go up to 1.68.
  2. ECG-24.2.5.6.3 | Software Update Experience (Gateway Module)

    Came here to post the same issue. Never had problems with the 12v, when I checked yesterday with a vlinker it was at 89%.
  3. The Least Reliable Cars, Trucks And SUVs You Can Buy In 2025, According To Consumer Reports

    Yeah I had a model 3 for 4 years and the trunk filled with water due to the seal failing, a short in the rear motor killed the 12v repeatedly and had to be taken in twice before they figured it out, required a motor swap. The tires started cupping, they never solved that one. The onboard...
  4. What's the highest power one could get from a Lightning over DC?

    In model 3, which has no AC outlets, people used to get around the 150w limit on the cig lighter by tapping into the heated seats wiring. I wonder if that's a possible route on the lightning for a direct DC source of power?
  5. Best charging pattern to use

    I usually keep it 50-70% during the week, but charge to ~95% if heading to the Laurel Highlands for the weekend. If I had to guess, even after 8 years, if you are doing things 'wrong', there will be very minimal difference in performance in the end.
  6. FordPass app 5.9.0 released for iOS

    What's this security package subscription? And shouldn't all vehicles always not start without our permission?
  7. Home Assistant - Ford F150 Lightning Dashboard.

    I currently don't have this active on my HA due to them changing the login. I haven't looked into doing the alternative Auth method for it.
  8. Rear light bar

    I had it replaced twice. It filled with water in late 2022, so I got them to swap it out. The part was later recalled so they had me bring it down again for another replacement to satisfy that. That replacement between did not leak at all.
  9. Driving in the snow -- stay with Grabbers, Michelin Defenders, snow tires?

    Yeah, I was planning on winter tires my first year and got lazy and never bought. Been through two winters now and they have been minimal here as you know lately. I do go up Seven Springs pretty often though, haven't had an issue in the stock grabbers yet.
  10. Looking for fender NMO Antenna mount

    Not a ham but I have been playing with meshtastic stuff lately... A few people have posted the bulletproofdiesel.com third brake light setup. Seems like a good option, though you won't be parking underground or in structures with it.
  11. I did not have to change the time in my truck today!

    My 75 Sierra Classic had a dial clock. My grandfather disconnected it at some point to save the car battery before he gifted me the truck, I never reconnected it while I had it.
  12. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    Only time that happens with me is if the lights are in on-mode or the tailgate is down.
  13. Frunk envy

    The sad thing is if Ford does a full refresh of the F-150 lightning I'd guess a from-the-ground-up EV would end up with a smaller frunk. This might end up being the biggest frunk to ever exist.
  14. Replaced: Rear Driver DRIVE AXLE... under warranty @ 49,000 miles

    Good to see things like this posted, one more thing for me to keep an eye on and be able to catch early if so.
  15. 🙋‍♂️ What Did You Do To Your Lightning Today?

    Mover's blankets are alright for a while but they eventually get torn up, especially if you have a spray-in liner. I've gone through a bunch of them already. I wonder if I can just buy a piece of this bed rug to use when I want it, and roll it up when I don't.
  16. Rodents in the front trunk

    Had some evidence of mice in the bed on mine, but no evidence they were in the cab or font trunk at all. I've got bait traps in my garage now, hopefully I won't see them again.
  17. With onboard NACS, will Tesla V2 stations be available?

    Don't get me wrong here... I'm in 100% agreement on this. It is just I think it is something that could be done, it isn't some impossible feat. The question is should/will the effort be made? No, heck no. Not worth it.
  18. With onboard NACS, will Tesla V2 stations be available?

    I'm saying it's 100% possible, not saying it'd be easy. These are two different things, I think the key here is that they won't do it, and we agree on that.
