Thank you for posting this. Took me weeks to believe I wasn't missing something.
It really is crazy to me that there is not a global override... But I made a home charging location and that covers a vast majority of charging, so hopefully we are good now :)
That was pretty much my feeling on it after the call, but I was very surprised with the push Ford is making.
Hopefully it all works out!
Also shout-out to @Ford Senior Master for helping me out!
In the S-corp camp here and you can (we have on past EVs, F150L was personal).
I don't see why being an LLC would change that as the credit is available to an entity (person or business), I don't think it's tied to certain types. All the EV companies doing leases get the credits!
Ohh.....
Don't scare me like this! If there are only ever 15-20k trucks with this setup, yeah they ain't gonna care about us like the new ones and fix it all in the new system....
Yesterday afternoon my truck threw a service light for powertrain issues that I posted on (it since disappeared).
I want to start by saying the team was super nice and very interested in the Lightning (she had on on order and had a lot of questions). But I was surprised by a few things when I...
Awesome points. I have to agree. Hardware wise, some things I would like different (or could have paid more for in the radio), but man is it a tremendously engineered vehicle. And I said it before, but think it's worth saying again. It's an amazing value all things considered. Very little comes...
Yes and we are going to have to learn those settings, and for safety buy a Waggle temp sensor.
Can it be done? Yes. But totally different. One is a set of settings you have to remember and you have 0 ability to check on it. The other is one button, leaves a message on screen, alerts you if it...
Those are other great points!
3) WHY DOES IT TELL ME "United States of America & zip code". It's not an issue just way overkill.
4) I'll agree again! They could kill it's need in software, but won't.
7) Yup. I have gotten used to it and do love options though so it's fun to me now. Just wish...
Yeah exactly. Speed makes sense and should not be an issue, but it's weird in real life to have a 240v not charge overnight.
I get not putting a bigger charger in because it only benefits a tiny subset of people and I assume this is shared with the Mach-E? Also on the charger, I loved how much...
Exactly. Normally I am not a negative Nancy, and is it refreshing to not be in a Tesla forum. I thought I was going to get flamed out by posting something like this! Over there I would be called a liar, short seller, and a whole other list of things for valid complaints...
And that's the funny...
Wow pardon the long post! Hope it comes off as helpful and not negative. I have really been thinking on all this over the last week and wondering why I don't "love" it fully yet (but we do really like it).
I will also add I think for the price, battery size, performance, and features it's an...
Oh boy here we go! I am 8 days in and I wanted to love the truck. I've been waiting for an EV F150 for a decade (ever since the DOA Toyota/Ford hybrid was announced). The wife and I are not fully in love with it. We really like it, but it's stupid little things getting us, which is frustrating...
Wow I opened a can of worms of discussion :).
I genuinely thought this was a supply chain issue that they cut it out, really surprised to hear that this is normal. Just to clarify, I am in a Lariat, not Platinum; couldn't justify 10k for fancier leather, better sound, and much worse wheels...
I had to post this, as it is such a silly complaint. But for this price point, it is crazy the rear windows are not auto down/up, ateast in the Lariat.
My base '99 Passat had all 4 auto down/up!

We drive medium haul trips a lot. Did PA and back in about 24 hours 2 weekends back ~600 miles.
We love the Model 3P, but man are we far off rated range. My safety number is 2 miles/% for winter (so slightly higher in summer). I fully ignore the Tesla estimator as it is wildly inaccurate for...
I have the wrench on the dashboard and get a warning saying adaptive cruise is unavailable when activating (so not ACC or Blue cruise).
Maybe on 12v, but gonna have dealer look. They are decently close and wife is out of town so not dependant on the truck.
