  1. Is the Ford factory making Lightnings again?

    The replenishment centers have stock that is preconfigured by Ford with certain fixed trim levels and color options. I was told there is 1 on the West coast, and 1 on the East coast. The one on the West coast is in Oakland, and that's where my Avalanche Lariat came from.
  2. Garage too small. Anyone park outside? In the snow?

    I'm also using one of these stops that's bolted to the concrete floor on my LF tire which is next to my water heater stand...
  3. Garage too small. Anyone park outside? In the snow?

    Here's the finished project except for texture and paint.
  4. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    I thought the 25's started production this month and the T3 program was delayed, not scrapped?
  5. Lightning ranked 2nd best EV pickup, behind Rivian, but beating GM, Tesla, and Hummer

    The Rivian does have a unique look, but I find it to be an acceptably pleasant look compared to the laughably unattractive cyberyuk.
  6. i need serious help on this decision

    I'll entertain buying a Tesla when E sells the company.
  7. Dealership Claimed EV Tax Credit without Permission

    I asked my dealer for a copy of the 15400 form a couple days after I took delivery, and they sent me a copy of it no problem.
  8. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    Have you tried other Ford dealers, or just your selling dealer?
  9. IRS Notice CP99D Transferred Tax Credit letter 2025

    What does you CPA say about the situation? I would contact (Or have your CPA do it) the IRS and ask if your VIN has been used to secure the tax credit to play it safe.
  10. IRS Notice CP99D Transferred Tax Credit letter 2025

    I think if you discussed that you wanted to take the tax credit upfront during negotiations with your selling dealer and they gave you the credit as part of your down payment, it would be enough for them to do what they needed to secure the $7500 from the IRS. Depends on the State's...
  11. Guide to Reducing Cabin Noise and insulation upgrade on F-150 Lightning

    My hearing isn't great, but my wife's is. Our stock 2024 Lariat is the quietest vehicle we have ever owned. And we've had a BMW 520i and a Lexus GS350 previously. My wife's 2017 Explorer Platinum is pretty quiet for an ICE vehicle, but definitely louder than the Lightning.
  12. Dealership Claimed EV Tax Credit without Permission

    6. Total Downpayment: E. Manufacturer's Rebate $2,000 I. Cash, Cash Equivalent, Check, Credit Card, or Debit Card $7500 Total Downpayment (C through I) $9500 The line "I" entry was the Federal Tax Credit
  13. Dealership Claimed EV Tax Credit without Permission

    Paperwork filled out using DocuSign on 9/30/24 as my selling dealer is out of town. Drove there and picked up my truck 10/1. $7500 Federal tax credit listed as "down payment" on my sales contract. Received IRS letter on 1/18/2025, and it has the correct VIN listed on it.
  14. i need serious help on this decision

    That may have held true 10 years ago, but the power to squash anything including new technology is now in play.
  15. i need serious help on this decision

    This is what I've been seeing too, although people who voted this administration in and are EV adopters keep tap dancing around the reality of what's on the new Administration's plate, or they are just sticking their heads in the sand.
  16. IRS Notice CP99D Transferred Tax Credit letter 2025

    Again, I find it hard to believe any dealer gave you the $7500 credit and didn't collect same from the IRS. That kind of mistake doesn't just slip between the cracks. We're not talking about a couple hundred bucks which would be easy to absorb by just reducing somebody's commission for making...
  17. IRS Notice CP99D Transferred Tax Credit letter 2025

    Do you really think your dealer shorted themselves $7500 on your deal? Not likely. If you take the credit on your taxes, be prepared for an audit or at the least a correction on your return plus fines and interest.
  18. Doesn’t look good for us ever seeing BC 1.4

    I'm afraid that ship of opportunity has already sailed.
