I guess it still comes down to individual preference, but having owned 3 Teslas in the past, I just miss a lot about the software/technology. Ford's implementation is slow and clunky. That said, there are other parts of the Lightning that are absolutely better than the Tesla, but I guess for me...
I own a 2024 F-150 Lightning Platinum and have been overall happy with the truck, but I’m starting to seriously consider moving back to a Tesla Model X. Took delivery in January and MSRP was 91k. Includes power running boards, BlueCruise (3-year plan), mobile charger, spray-in bedliner, and I...
2024 Platinum owner here. I've had water leaking through the moonroof causing musty smell. Also had the recall/TSB work done on the moonroof, however, it seems to be getting worse.
Took it to a drive thru car wash today just to get a decent handle of how much water was being let in, and it...
Oh man. I've been through a lot - 1995 Geo Prizm, 1998 Mazda 626, 2005 VW Jetta, 2009 VW Passat, 2011 Ford F150, 2013 Ford F150, 2015 BMW 528i, 2018 Ford F150, 2021 BMW X5. After this, I dived into the world of EVs...without even test driving one. My EV history: 2023 Tesla Model Y, 2022 Tesla...
Just got truck back. My suspicions were correct. The botched automatic update was responsible. Dealership performed updates on SOBDM, SOBDMC and PCM modules, which resolved issues. Tested out at Tesla Supercharger and worked just fine.
@Ford Motor Company - no more action required from your...
Dropped off at the dealership this morning. Of course no loaner and they’re not sure how long it’ll take to resolve - it could be days to weeks. @Ford Motor Company
Hang in there, bud. Love my Lightning coming from a Tesla (and I owned 3 Teslas) but it gets tricky with service because you’re at the mercy of independent dealerships. Hopefully this doesn’t get drawn out.
I installed the ECG2-25.2.8.5 update yesterday. On our way out of town this evening, I stopped for a quick top-up at a DC fast charger. As soon as I plugged in, the truck threw a “Service Vehicle Soon” warning.
I tried the usual quick fix of disconnecting the 12V battery, but the message...
