In making decisions like this, many people factor in the EV theme, i.e. going with Lightning Blue, versus going with a vehicle's color. License plate frames, decals, badges, accents. Push the EV theme.
Also remember that the color does lose some lustre pretty quickly, silver will look duller...
Doesn't matter what a franchise agreement says. Facts are facts. Fact - many of us have had Ford dealerships refuse to work on our vehicles, even when they are EV certified, and the vehicle is in warranty. Ford has been advised of this, and their response has been to try another dealership...
LT tires are heavier, so no. That's why the Lightning doesn't have LT tires on many trims, and gets better efficiency. LT tires also have higher rolling resistance, and lack the quieting technology that some EV tires have.
One of the huge benefits of using CarScanner, which costs under $5 for the PRO version as I recall ( the free version eventually wont' show any data) is the ability to see data that matters.
One of the most important pieces of data is ENERGY, i.e. the amount of available energy you have. Why...
Good point. However, in general I don't watch videos at all. I have watched quite a few of yours, and some of the Out of Spec, earlier in my EV life, but don't any longer, too much time wasted. Much more productive to waste my time online... 😄
Seriously though, I've been using forums and...
One way to increase your SOH is to drive and fast charge. 😜
Now, many of you doubt that, but the SOH% on both my vehicles has INCREASED during a trip. Why? 100% SOC to leave, which balances the cells, and numerous fast charges taking it up and down which recalibrates things. My Lightning is...
It's pretty silly to be in a business selling vehicles and then to block fee-paid chargers from being used. I get blocking your free chargers from being used, if you don't want people using them, but blocking your paid chargers from being used it's pretty stupid business.
😄 Not even close. Bedrug isn't a rubber mat... https://realtruck.com/b/bedrug/
As to Ford's rubber mat, my bed was sprayed at the factory, but I wanted a rubber mat. Ordered the Ford one, and it was so poorly made that I returned it to my dealership and they ordered another one after they...
Never had a salesperson go on a test drive. We borrowed a dealership's demo Lightning for an entire weekend. Then, a year later, bought our demo out of state. Same dealership gave us a Mach-E for 2 days to drive, bought 2 from them, but they didn't have any Lightnings in spring 2023 so we...
