  1. ✅ 5/2 Lightning Build Week Group

    This was mostly expected. Ford always holds new designs for extra quality control (Batch and Hold system). F50L is certainly going to have a lot more scrutiny, so probably held on to them longer than normal. Will see if the next two weeks of builds see a change given that they are Officially...
  2. Financing the 2022 Lightning Purchase - Add Your Options

    The Ford Options rates were certainly scary :) But, they've always been notably higher than market rate. I think the lowest rate for mach-e was ~2.25% when you could find loans under 1%. For Ford's regular financing for the F150, rates are still good: .9% 36 months, 1.9% 48 months. Those are...
  3. Financing the 2022 Lightning Purchase - Add Your Options

    +1 for Logix assuming your in AZ, CA, DC, MA, MD, ME, NH, NV, or VA. Only condition for their APR (which is @ 1.74% now) is autopay (and obviously the credit rating to get it). +1% if you don't autopay. You also need to get a Savings account from them to establish an Account to get the loan...
  4. Out of Spec - F150 Offroad Course Test

    Pavement princess here as well. But, considering the trucks off road capabilities, I will 100% take it off road to maximize the value. Part of my selling point to the wife was it would make weekend excursions easier :). Nothing serious, but maybe just to get to a cool camp site or location...
  5. 300/320 miles of range vs 450+

    this still around... Reviewers made way too much of the range calc, and Ford just sat back enjoying the free press of 400+ miles. Early pre-production trucks likely had some Mach-e calculations for range, with a much bigger battery that produced big range numbers. That's the only thing that...
  6. ✅ 6/6 Lightning Build Week Group

    Standard ICE timelines is ~3-4 weeks from Build for delivery, with build being done in a few days. No one knows what to expect right now. I think most do not believe Ford is doing chip holds for Lightning, but if it is that could add a couple more weeks to the standard timeline. Seems like...
  7. Video: F-150 Lightnings Loaded onto Trains with Spring Deliveries Underway!

    Deliveries Starting Spring.... No one promised yours was being delivered in Spring. Spring lasts until June 21st. Everyone hoped a March Spring, but reality was always Spring in June. Wave #2 orders were all 24+ weeks from order date. Wave #1 was 20+weeks, It's possible that some Wave #1...
  8. Poll: A lot theories on why we aren’t seeing shipments ⚡️

    Those aren't problems/issues that's just how the ford's are. Same characteristics as Mach-e. And both those are fairly niche complaints.
  9. ⚡️ 2022 F-150 Lightning Reviews Are In! (Here's the whole list)

    Two bit da Vinci review was better than I expected: Looks like he just drove the car by itself for two to three hours and got about as close to a range test as we would see. He drove 110 miles. He was driving a platinum, here are his numbers: 1.8 mi/kwh going 75mph. 2.3 mi/kwh going...
  10. Lightning EA Charging for EV Dummies

    Usually there are not people clamouring to charge behind you :) So you may fail in peace. I spent 15 minutes one morning failing because I was swiping my phone on the wrong thing for payment. You'll just want to setup and enable plug and charge first. Then for EA just plug... And charge :)...
  11. Ford All Weather Floor Liner Tray for Carpet Floor

    Based on my limited review a while ago. I think husky Liners are "best" as they have the most overall coverage but maybe there's an f150 owner here who's used both before. Husky Liners Weatherbeater Series | Front & 2nd Seat Floor Liners - Black | 94041 | Fits 2015-2022 Ford F-150 SuperCrew...
  12. ✅ 5/30 Lightning Build Week Group

    You should, and to make up for it, I will require a trade. Your Lariat ER for my XLT standard. It will make you sleep better at night.
  13. ✅ 5/2 Lightning Build Week Group

    Pretty sure Ford 100% doesn't care. The "delay" is logistics/quality checks/PR. They are selling all Trucks regardless of the Tax Credit status for the next 2-years. Certainly some will drop out, but they will just be filled w/ others. I'd personally drop out, unless I was able to order a Pro...
  14. ✅ 6/6 Lightning Build Week Group

    I don't think 1 week is likely a key difference (hopefully). Probably still in the margin of being shipped out around the same time.
  15. ✅ 5/30 Lightning Build Week Group

    Boooo!! I think ERs bumped the SRs from 5/30 :)
  16. Video: How fast will Lightning DC charge (Charging Curve Preview.)

    Thanks Tom! Could you also get nerdy with them and get an answer why the Standard Range doesn't charge as fast? If it had a similar curve, it'd lessen the impact of the range on road trips and take almost 15 minutes off the 15-80% time.
  17. Video: How fast will Lightning DC charge (Charging Curve Preview.)

    Charging curve preview. He notes he got data from ford for standard and extended range. But, nothing about standard range here.
  18. ✅ 5/2 Lightning Build Week Group

    Tom of insideevs podcast today seemed to suggest deliveries would start monday 5/16. So if things start moving that day, then it's officially the start.
  19. Dealer mannequins arriving when?

    Tom on InsideEVs livestream just seemed to suggest that deliveries (not sure if demo vs. reservation difference) wouldn't start "arriving" until Monday (5/16).
