I think it was just dealer speak. I can translate: “I know you really want max tow, but that’s not what I have on the lot.” My own max two has been fine range wise and appears to make what everyone else is getting (non max tow).
By that time the mysterious next generation (T3) Lightning will be released. From what I’ve been reading it sounds like it’ll be a “born as an EV” approach vs the “how quickly can we convert an F150 to EV” approach.
I just got this message on my app for the first time today. Seems concerning if my 12v is already getting low being less than 12 months old. I have no accessories running except for the Fitcamx which is connected to the rear view mirror circuit that shuts off when the truck is keyed off.
For now it seems the only thing the west (Europe, North America) can and has done is to ban the sales of these Chinese EVs. But if china can make these for pennies on the dollar compared to western countries (with labor unions, fair wages, health Insurance, strict road safety regulations, etc.)...
Hang in there I had a very similar experience with a bad modem/TCU that took about 3 months after purchase to finally get it replaced. You can see my posts in this forum about it. Your dealer being 4 hours away definitely made this especially painful. I ended up missing the deadline for getting...
Kind of a specific question here, but I am seeing conflicting info on what frequency the TPMS is for my 2023. Mine was built at the very end of 2023 in December and I have the 20in Goodyear EV tires as OEM. I know it’s either 315mhz or 433mhz but not sure which one. I’m asking because I have...
This is mainly a suggestion/observation for Ford but I’m curious to hear what Ford EV owners think of the idea.
I read this forum a lot, along with Reddit and Facebook. When someone has an issue with their Lightning or Mach-e there is a huge variance in quality of service and basic EV knowledge...
I realize this is an old thread, but I bought these for my 2023 Lightning per the above comments but I’m wondering if anyone has confirmed these do indeed work for 2023 (in addition to 2022)? I read somewhere the frequency changed but it’s not clear which year that happened.
Took a quick glance at the site myself and it’s not clear how you search for 2023 on there. Only saw 2024. Person asking about this may just have to search all the dealer sites within a certain mile radius of where they are.
Does your auto insurance cover daily rental? I believe this is what my dealer did when I had my truck in. They asked for my insurance info and rented me a bronco. But I never saw a bill for it so I assume it was covered by my insurance. If your dealer can’t rent, maybe at least see if insurance...
Thanks. Had no idea about any of this. Are you saying someone could also just develop their own app or vehicle status page with these APIs? I realize we’re venturing into a whole separate topic/thread here.
I’m not an engineer so you may have a point there. But I do know the truck “knows” and tells you on the dash when the door/frunk/tailgate/charge port door is open and it “knows” if the doors are locked or not. The windows I’m not so sure about, but would be amazing if the truck had awareness...
Out of curiosity, if you’re in a low garage and the frunk starts opening I assume it will just hit the roof. I wonder if there’s a quick kill method to stop the frunk mid flight?
