  1. Power Running Boards VS Fixed - Is kWh affected?

    Almost certainly the colder weather that's affecting range. Check back in one year from now. Power running boards is the one option I wish I had on my '22 Platinum. My wife's car has them. I like how they look while retracted and like the step placement while extended.
  2. Set up help needed

    My 2¢. Google Maps in Sync does a really nice job of planning and is very accurate. The downside is you can't easily plan a trip on your phone prior to getting in the truck. ABRP has some nice features that Google Maps doesn't have. My confidence is higher using both but I'll probably eventually...
  3. Parking brake fail? Wet, not icy surface

    Exactly how do you set the parking brake? First eliminate user error then move on to other possibilities.
  4. Parking brake fail? Wet, not icy surface

    Wheel chocks at Harbor Freight are $8 apiece.
  5. How can I remove ice from inside the truck’s charge cord receptacle

    How is the snow getting in there? I live in a cold climate and have never had any issues. I can envision a situation where you might not be able to close the charge port door but I don't understand how ice and/or snow gets into the actual charge port.
  6. Need advice on 3 different Lariats for purchase.

    Truck 1 and truck 2 are functionally the same. Buy the one in the color you like best. I'm partial to '22s because they don't have any feature deletes. The dealership should be able to provide a window sticker to see exactly what the differences are.
  7. Parking brake fail? Wet, not icy surface

    Yeah, this isn't a mystery. These simultaneous parking brake/parking pawl failures only seem to occur on icy hills. In aviation there is a condition called "braking action nil" which is exactly what it sounds like; no braking action, your directional control is limited by whatever you can do...
  8. Seeking input on range of new Lariat

    I figure 250 miles of range from 100%-0% in the summer and 200 miles in the winter. This is 1.9 m/kWh and 1.5 m/kWh respectively. My estimate takes temperature and the way I drive into account but it doesn't factor wind. If you are driving 70 mph over the road with a 20 mph headwind, you will...
  9. Start up and shut down sounds intermittent

    Is it silent most of the time? The four chimes is a seatbelt warning. If you are wearing your seatbelt while starting it should be silent. Sometimes the seatbelt chime sounds like a 1998 Crown Vic; like a buzzer behind the dash. That's when the LVB is low. At least that's the theory.
  10. PSA: Get an Additional BlueCruise Year for Free (2022 and 2023 Models)

    I submit that in the aggregate, '22 and '23 buyers paid for any extra BlueCruise we got when we paid for the truck. Said another way, I bet owners of 2024 Lightnings wouldn't pay the difference between what they paid and what earlier owners paid for four years of BlueCruise.
  11. New EV charging stations in Iowa halted, {POLITICS}

    These are the first two paragraphs of the link provided in the first post of this thread. This entire thread is about broken promises in Iowa.
  12. New EV charging stations in Iowa halted, {POLITICS}

    Congress passes a bill, when the President signs it it becomes a law. This is how it worked in America from 1776 until 2024.
  13. F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

    I have a '22 Platinum and couldn't even get the Beosonic circle to appear. I'll try again at some point.
  14. Intermittent aluminum crunching/ shifting sound under driver side. Help!

    Has the truck been on n a lift? It seems like they should be able to find something if they poke around a bit.
  15. New EV charging stations in Iowa halted, {POLITICS}

    Both Houses of Congress and the President of the United States of America.
  16. New EV charging stations in Iowa halted, {POLITICS}

    The promise of better EV charging infrastructure.
  17. Service required. Excessive battery drain.

    I agree with your assessment. Unplug the OBD for a couple days and see if the message returns.
  18. Weird intermittent occurances with software

    I think it's pretty common. I've had it once or twice. Gremlins.
  19. Weird intermittent occurances with software

    I agree with @jetfixr1. (I'm a Jet breaker, btw. Happy "Valentine's" day?). @mtxmiller, have you had the BMS CSP done? That seems to have taken care of most LVB issues. Also, the simple way to charge the LVB is to drive the truck or just turn off the shit down timer and leave it running in your...
  20. Front Parking Sensors CSP Failure

    Just playing the odds, you should be fine as long as the dealer has the required parts. I suggest verifying they have the parts before departing. It's certainly possible they will brick your truck but that seems like an exceedingly rare occurrence.
