  1. Dealer Reservation Awareness

    I thought I would chime in. My roommate made a reservation first week of June last year and knows she has to wait a while. Today she got a call from her dealer in Colorado and she missed it and called back. They said they had five allocations and wanted to know what model and battery she wanted...
  2. Can In-Vehicle Safe by Console Vault be installed by customer or does it need dealer install ?

    I’ve owned two console vaults so far. One for my 2013 Explorer and one for my current Bronco. I’m actually going to get one for my Lightning too. I’m guessing it’s going to be an easy install as my last two vaults. Super easy! Remember that any safe/vault in or out of your home can always be...
  3. Changing the color on my order

    Just stopped at a dealership today and saw both Atlas Blue and Antimatter Blue on ICE f-150s in bright sunlight and shade. I think AB will look black most of the time, unless direct bright sunlight is hitting it. I think Atlas Blue in direct sunlight is a bright blue, brighter than I like. If I...
  4. Attended F-150 Lightning Launch Event -- Writeup, Photos, Max Payload, GVWR

    Thank you for the write up! Just curious if there was a notable difference between the iconic silver and iced blue silver, if both were in the same room at the same time? My father is debating that color. Thank you!
  5. Attended F-150 Lightning Launch Event -- Writeup, Photos, Max Payload, GVWR

    Thank you Rick, for your write up! I’ve never owned a truck and can’t remember the last time I actually drove a truck. I guess I need to get in an F-150 ice and drive it before driving the Lightning demo at my dealers later, just so I can appreciate the difference. Looking forward to another...
  6. SMOKED QUARTZ F-150 Lightning Photos & Club

    I’m actually going to head to Folsom Ford in California tomorrow, in hopes of seeing an SQ on the lot. I already changed my color once from Iced Blue Silver to Carbonized Grey. I did see an a iced Blue Silver car before I changed my color. I guess if there is an SQ truck and I’m absolutely sold...
  7. Farley: F-150 Lightning production will increase to 150K units in the next year and receive chips priority

    I read this and immediately saw a smack down on Rivian! They were the first to deliver, but that’s about it. I think it’s great hearing things like this. Everyone is throwing their hat in and in a few years competition will be real. But, Ford will be the first to put a lot of them on the road. I...
  8. SMOKED QUARTZ F-150 Lightning Photos & Club

    I took a big chance getting an Area 51 Bronco and absolutely love the new color. I almost signed up for this smoked quartz, but was worried because I’ve never spent 80+k on a new vehicle without seeing the color up close. So, I stuck with carbonized grey and I know I will be very happy with it...
  9. Changing the color on my order

    Nope, I ordered all online with my Lighting. I walked in with my tail between my legs looks and the manager thought I came in to cancel. But was pleasantly surprised that all I wanted was a color change. He knew who I was because I bought my Bronco from him and found out during the color change...
  10. Changing the color on my order

    No issues with me about three weeks ago from Iced Blue Silver to Carbonized Gray on a 5/23 build week. The GM did it and it was confirmed the next day by ford with an email and new color on my order. He did make out new paperwork for me to sign right there and then. Nothing delayed.
  11. Jim Farley: F-150 Lightning Sold Out For 2-3 Years, Reservations Stopped at 200k

    Your best bet is to check with your dealer. My dealer had 300 reservations and four allocations. My roommate reserved first week of June and showed him her reservation number. He looked on the list and it would have put her around 142 on his list of 300 reservations.
  12. Ford Lightning walk around at SEMA garage & answered questions

    Nice video and 411! My ears moved when I heard aftermarket big name companies showed up for measuring winch in bumper and suspension lifts. I know mileage will go down, but I don’t care.
  13. Anyone's Lightning getting built this week?

    If I remember right, for my Bronco order last year, that bottom date on the sticker would change weekly for me regularly. Didn’t know why it changed weekly though. I’m sure the Lightnings will go much faster to everyone than did the Broncos. My blend was 7/23 or something like that, then...
  14. Bulletin: 2022MY F-150 Lightning Retail Reservation to Order Update. XLT and Pro Trims Sold Out.

    I'm still wondering why one of my reservations showed "extended" for a while, until a couple of weeks ago. It went back to just plain "reservation". I know this has happened to others, but was wondering if some of us out there still show "extended"? I at least, still have the email from earlier...
  15. F-150 Lightning Forum's gone solo!

    I don’t know about this! “Gas only” trollers will be extremely upset ? Happy this is only Lightning!!
  16. Bicycles in Short Bed

    Watching this thread. I’m really looking forward to utilizing the bed for my e-mountain bike. New to owning a truck.
  17. Read before you order! Expect 50% range loss in winter in Northern states.

    Whew!! Even if I would have gotten the standard range that would leave me with 115. Gets me to where I need to go and back locally. Don’t plan any long distant trips in the winter.
  18. âś… 5/23 Lightning Build Week Group

    Is anyone else selling and timing the sale of their other car, or EV. Just curious, I’m going to sell Model Y and fork over some cash for Lariat LR, carbonized gray, tow tech. I Don’t want to sell it too fast, as I make long trips back and forth to the office a few times a month and like using...
  19. Got order invite today (4/12/2022)

    Keep trying and use a different browser. Even try with your phone too. I had that driving me crazy for 30 minutes before it finally took my deposit. Good luck!
  20. Lightning Reservation Extended

    Something is definitely different now! It used to say “deferred” if I’m not mistaken. Now it’s not there and back to “Reservation”. I will call my dealer tomorrow. My father was waiting for a Pro for our 2nd reservation.
