  1. Ford Pass Rewards Visa

    They may still. I don't think there's a downside for Ford. For the bank and consumers though...?
  2. 2023 XLT SR Won't charge

    Sounds like the onboard charger to me. This doesn't disable the truck since you can still DC charge. If it were me I'd try to minimize the time at the dealership by continuing to drive the truck until they have the necessary parts. Maybe parts availability is no longer an issue?
  3. Can’t DCFC Stuck On Road Trip

    You seem to have a misunderstanding of the culture of this forum.
  4. Can’t DCFC Stuck On Road Trip

    Search for a Tesla supercharger on your phone using your browser, Google Maps, or Apple Maps and tell me if it will work with your truck. You might be able to find a review that mentions compatibility. It's easy for you because you know how to do it. It's not easy for the uninitiated.
  5. Teach my 2024 ER Lightning That There is a FCSP at Home

    Yes, but do you know the traffic between you and home? Joking aside, I find myself using Google Maps navigation to and from work just for traffic. Occasionally, it pays off with an alternate route to avoid a slowdown.
  6. What's the verdict on purchasing a "buyback" lightning (from those that have done so)?

    I didn't know this law existed. What a dumb law. I can't believe it hasn't been tested on Constitutional grounds.? I haven't bought a buyback but I'd consider it. I think it comes down to your risk assessment and tolerance. Those who have strong opinions against purchasing a buyback don't value...
  7. Ford Pass Rewards Visa

    My bet is the bank that issues the card dropped Ford. They buy points from Ford and hope it encourages people to use the card so they can collect transaction fees. They are competing with airline cards that give you free flights and cash back cards that give you money that can be used anywhere...
  8. Can’t DCFC Stuck On Road Trip

    Detailed information like this prevents questions like mine above. Good luck with your truck, hopefully it's something simple. Please update this thread with the diagnosis for the benefit of others in a similar situation.
  9. Brakes

    Sure, but the point is to clean off your brakes not to bed them in. FWIW, I have not found rusty or dirty brakes to be a concern in my 28k miles driving a Lightning. My truck lives outside in an area that uses salt and frequency sits in an airport parking lot for days at a time. I've never used...
  10. Brakes

    No need to shift to neutral. If you want to use the brakes just press the brake pedal with a bit more force than you usually do.
  11. Can’t DCFC Stuck On Road Trip

    I mean, this is a possibility. Nothing you have written indicates the issue is definitely with the truck. The issue might be with the truck but it might have been with the chargers you were using too. How did you identify the Tesla chargers as being compatible? Identifying compatible Tesla...
  12. Swap 23 Lariat ER for 24 Platinum am I crazy?

    King Ranch has saddle brown seats. As far as I know it's the only F150 with saddle brown seats. I was contrasting the two trucks. I like the Platinum interior. The King Ranch interior is trying to be something it's not, in my observation. The Harley Davidson F150 falls into the same category to...
  13. Swap 23 Lariat ER for 24 Platinum am I crazy?

    The King Ranch is a nice truck but I've never seen any ranchers driving them; it's a pavement princess. So is the Platinum but it's an authentic pavement princess.
  14. Swap 23 Lariat ER for 24 Platinum am I crazy?

    This is THE reason to buy a Platinum. My wife won't even consider a car without massaging seats after using them in my truck. If I'm being honest, I feel the same.
  15. Brakes

    There are more Lightning owners who have replaced battery modules than brakes. They are still a wear item but just barely.
  16. Bluecruise Works…For Now

    If you are interested in the dark arts you can (probably) do it yourself using Forscan.
  17. Buy Backs and Lemon Law Trucks Where mine went:

    I had a similar experience with Huntley. I inquired about a car and explained I wanted an out the door price since I was coming from Michigan. They refused, saying they only do business in person. I passed and bought a car in Atlanta, from a dealership (Jaguar Land Rover North Atlanta) that...
  18. Brake Fluid Refill

    Use a flashlight to shine through the reservoir and you'll be able to see the level. It's probably fine. Brake fluid is only low if the brakes are very worn or there's a leak. Neither situation is very likely in a Lightning.
  19. Considering a used Lightning - what to avoid?

    2022 is the best vintage of Lightning. Starting in 2023 there were feature deletes and it was further decontented in 2024. The downside to a 2022 is it's a little closer to the end of the warranty if that's important to you.
