so still no ability to know if my truck is locked. Got it. 👍

The Lightning comes in as the 5th cheapest to insure. I was surprised myself when I insured mine. It cost the same as our ICE Toyota Highlander. Cheapest EVs to insure

It’s just too easy for this beast https://www.hotcars.com/ford-f-150-lightning-obliterate-muscle-cars-drag-race/

I believe the 2025’s no longer have a rear differential lock, unless you upgrade to the max tow package. So maybe this variant also adds that back in a non-max tow configuration.

Same. Two buttons I rarely press are the sunroof vent open button and the fold shifter down button.

Lived in rural GA as a kid. That mud is no joke.

Is the Lightning frame and underbody more corrosion protected than a regular F150?

Our other vehicle is a Toyota Highlander so I’ve seen his videos before. They’re usually very good and he is truly a master mechanic.

This makes financial sense to me. Maybe we can buy some extra batteries for the bed of our trucks :) https://electrek.co/2025/08/19/fords-next-big-ev-money-move-selling-batteries/

Tried google maps on my iPhone 12 this weekend and I am not seeing navigation arrows on the main dash. So whomever is maybe has an update that I don’t have.

This sounds similar to my day 1 experience. See thread below. Mine had a two layer problem. It was still in “fleet mode” and second, the modem/TCU was unresponsive. After 2 or 3 times at the dealer they finally replaced the modem/TCU and all communications started working again. The mothership...

Yeah my 2023 doesn’t have the interior motion sensor either. There’s this whole thread about how to add it back. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/ford-perimeter-plus-security-system.15665/

The truck will stay on even if you leave with your phone in your pocket. I do it all the time when I leave my family waiting while I go grab something in the store on a road trip.

It would be really hilarious if the letters slowly spelled out FYOU

Amazing. I have not seen this before. Most of us have this in the app:

Can we see a screenshot of this? I haven’t seen this before or mentioned before by anyone else. Maybe a new model year thing?

Not sure about the rest of you but the other annoying thing about the Ford nav for me is that the Tesla superchargers do not show up at all when trying to find a nearby charger. At least I can route in Apple Maps and it’ll include Tesla superchargers.

Yeah I might have to start doing this too. 9 out of 10 times that I approach the truck and try the door handle nothing happens. I have to take the phone out of my pocket, unlock it, then open the FordPass app and THEN the truck wakes up and unlocks the door. iPhone 12.

I’ll check this out later when I drive. Does Ford do “silent” updates that we are not notified about? Sometimes I get in the truck and the “my view” screen on the driver screen has changed, but no update announced anywhere.

I just read that the battery on this smaller truck might be really small. If true then that explains why the price would be so low. Not sure everyone will enjoy the range it provides. https://insideevs.com/news/768632/ford-midsize-ev-pickup-battery/
