  1. F150L vs CyberTruck Tow-Battle Rematch (Hypothetical)

    The tl;dr - in 2022, the battle might only come down to the uninteresting differences in tire selection (as weight, etc., are nearly a wash). We all remember the infamous Musk video of the CyberTruck walking away with an F150, which tow-battle was so gimmicky and discussed in pop-culture that...
  2. Tonneau Efficiency Data Collection

    can’t wait for the IRS to issue guidance on battery critical minerals composition rules:ROFLMAO: perhaps that is the new “oil type” for EVs?
  3. Tonneau Efficiency Data Collection

    thanks sincerely for your service I sure hadn’t intended to open such a can of worms, but some days you’re the statue and sole days you’re the pigeon!
  4. For those with >$300k income, will you still buy a EV w/o $7500 incentive?

    I mean, worth reminding that Ford was in 2023 going to have little or no tax credits anyway So the “Parmenides fallacy” here is that high income Ford buyers are loosing a tax credit starting 1/1/23, when in fact the reality is lower income earners are gaining a tax credit. There is a narrow...
  5. Fan and Air Conditioning Controls Are Horrible (and dangerous)

    Electronic controls are great for me, assuming the UI is good Thankfully, a benefit of electronic controls is that Ford can fix the UI over air, and it can even provide UI optionality for different user preferences Hopefully ford gets on that - otherwise, they may as well have used physical...
  6. Tonneau Efficiency Data Collection

    It seems one can find support for whichever conclusion one prefers! Makes for a perfect discussion topic. Since someone mentioned Mythbusters, and I miss that show, I looked up the episode. Their results (using an ICE Dakota single cab and a calibrated fuel flow monitor at both 25 and 55mph)...
  7. Tonneau Efficiency Data Collection

    I think there’s mention that the weight of hard covers does (or is assumed to) further reduce efficiency gains dunno
  8. Inflation Reduction Act -- MSRP Cap x F150 Lightning 2023 MSRP Conjecture - Extended Range (ER) under $80K possible?

    This is roughly true, but with important modification: the critical materials requirement provides that a specified portion of the materials contained in the battery must be extracted or processed in the U.S. or a country with which the United States has a free trade agreement or that they be...
  9. âś… 6/6 Lightning Build Week Group

    I do like the star white, but that light blue color really grows on me as time goes on and I see pics of it in the wild. as for the truck generally: a 1000 miles in, I think what’s most remarkable about it is how not different it is from the 2018 F150 I traded in - and that’s a good thing thr...
  10. Truck Icon Hell: Every Color BUT My Truck?!

    My sense of aesthetics and brand of OCD is triggered every time my display(s) show me a truck icon that isn’t Star White - the color of my truck. Perhaps the reaction wouldn’t be so bad if @Ford Motor Company didn’t beat me over the head with so many images of trucks, of differing colors, none...
  11. âś… 6/6 Lightning Build Week Group

    Thought I’d tag in here with the fellow 6/6 build week folks surprised and saddened @Regular150 to see you’re still awaiting yours
  12. 🙋‍♂️ What Did You Do To Your Lightning Today?

    damn that color is nice; I regret not choosing it
  13. Inflation Reduction Act -- MSRP Cap x F150 Lightning 2023 MSRP Conjecture - Extended Range (ER) under $80K possible?

    Seems so! In which case. I’d say it is totally possible to construct aN XLT ER that comes in under $80K Question is, aside from scales (-$650), what other option(s) totaling -$326 are getting deleted to reach that $79,999 MSRP? Would be almost satisfying to submit that MSRP on one’s taxes!
  14. Inflation Reduction Act -- MSRP Cap x F150 Lightning 2023 MSRP Conjecture - Extended Range (ER) under $80K possible?

    i had missed that, thanks! for purposes of this (admittedly fantastical) post’s conjecture, it’s frustrating/surprising that it shows under “optional” equipment. I wonder what happens when both (1) there’s no other optional equipment, and (2) the “standard” equipment is deleted by order by...
  15. Inflation Reduction Act -- MSRP Cap x F150 Lightning 2023 MSRP Conjecture - Extended Range (ER) under $80K possible?

    Anyone yet with a window sticker for a unit with ”removed” standard items (e.g., a platinum without the seats, or a unit with the scales removed)?
  16. DualLiner with Pro Power availability

    I wasn’t familiar with this option but it looks pretty good - especially for the price!
  17. Lightning vs Silverado EV after the latest ford price increases/feature deletes?

    we’ll see what Ram is hinting at. And no doubt ideas can be executed poorly or well. daydreaming over this, I think it could come down to exactly how it is featured in the trim lineups, and the marketing message behind it. Consider just two alternatives: (A) “the new Ram top trim: 500mi range...
