  1. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    You should try to involve the Ford Regional Rep. But others have gotten the check after a few weeks or a month. Be sure that the dealer signs a document stating they owe you any price protection monies they receive from Ford. Good luck.
  2. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Perhaps it is due to where the batteries are assembled. The SK batteries used in the Lightning are assembled in SC - where are the batteries for the MMe assembled?
  3. Frunk completely dead

    Well Dang! Here I thought I had a problem and it is simply that the button on the frunk won't work unless all the doors are in the unlocked mode. Glad I read this forum before I made a trip to the dealer about this. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
  4. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    I sincerely hope your reasoning is incorrect. My VIN ends in 07649 - which is within your range.
  5. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    I agree with your assumption - as my blend date was 1/12 and shipment was made 1/22, but held in a yard outside Nashville, TN for about 10 days. I took delivery on 2/22 and have had no issues. Other than figuring out how to make all the personal settings. The two things I miss the most from...
  6. How many Lightnings have you seen in the wild?

    I've seen 6 to 8 in Western TN - a few at DCFC charging locations and the others passing by. I see a few MMe and other EVs and a lot of Tesla Model 3 and Model Ys.
  7. PSA: Don’t let your kid learn to drive on your Lightning

    "Hit the gas" :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Seriously, we'll all take some time to stop saying gas pedal and switch to something like accelerator pedal or go-pedal.
  8. I got a ticket because the charge port is in the front and I parked head-in.

    The problem is at the Level 3 chargers. That is where the longer cord is needed.
  9. I got a ticket because the charge port is in the front and I parked head-in.

    Hopefully someone will market an extension J1772 cord soon.
  10. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Y'all hang in there. I got mine two weeks ago - only held up a week in the lot in Nashville before being delivered to the dealership near Memphis. I'm sorry about the frustration y'all are bearing - but once you get your Lightning, it will be great. I've had 2 wheeeeeks of fun so far! :D:D:D:D

    I got the email today - 8 days after I started driving my Lightning! GLTA.
  12. Price Protection and Dealer Woes

    I got my price up front, but the dealership has to wait 45 days or longer for Ford to credit them the "sale's" credit. Evidently, it is managed through the Ford Regional Rep approving the sale with the discounted pricing route instead of listing the original MSRP. So on my agreement, it starts...
  13. EV Charging Station Tax Credit

    I was able to include this credit using TurboTax. You should see a message about why you cannot use it.
  14. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    It requires someone to be in the vehicle to acknowledge and accept the request.
  15. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    I've got a steep learning curve on the GUI for the Lightning after driving the Mach E - several subtle differences and some fine details. This morning, I went through the screens behind the steering wheel - I like most of the choices. I was surprised to see a little battery icon with an arrow...
  16. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Although Blue Mule should have All Terrain tires (275/65R18), it is shod with Michelin Primacy All Season tires. Okay by me, I don't offroad. ? EDIT: In the daylight, I see the Michelin Primacy XC are All Terrain - but I'd never take that tread pattern onto anything rougher than a gravel...
  17. ✅ 1/9/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    I completed the purchase and my XLT has a new home!
  18. Wireless Keypad - how to install/program ?

    Sounds like a Bluetooth keyboard to interface with the FRDS - easier editing settings than the pulldown menus used in other interfaces.
  19. $7500 tax credit changes come MARCH

    I got an advert from Lucid in my email today - it claimed the Lucid Air is eligible for the $ 7500 through MARCH 31. Has the IRS made an official announcement that sales finalized by 3/31/23 qualifies for the full $ 7500?
