  1. F-150 Lightning is the best selling EV pickup in the U.S.

    It looks like even that 5K Cybertruck sales number maybe inflated: https://electrek.co/2025/10/13/elon-musks-spacex-and-xai-are-buying-teslas-unsold-cybertrucks/
  2. powertrain malfunction with 100% power - Code P0DE9

    Has anyone have had coolant diverted valve replaced but didn’t have clicking sound coming out of it. I don’t hear any clicks and my shifter acts OK too. What else can it be?
  3. F-150 Lightning is the best selling EV pickup in the U.S.

    Ass was short for Assertive. If Elon didn’t push for that design the engineers could make something better and beat Lightning. Not sure if this defense holds up in court but I had to give it a shot. I will try to behave in subsequent posts. This dude just gets under my skin.
  4. F-150 Lightning is the best selling EV pickup in the U.S.

    Is that pass a kind remark? or a forum loophole to use after dark? Lightning is the champ, not because CT is crass or due to CTs gigantic glass not even because of Lightning’s higher class it’s simply for one reason:; Elon is an ass
  5. Tuning a Lightning

    Sold. I am hoping you will bail me out if I am caught for reckless driving.
  6. Tuning a Lightning

    What you are saying makes perfect sense but neither me nore the Lucid guy were thinking about ICE. If You think of his circles as 95% and 97% and his curve as 60 KW, his graph of electric motor looks exactly like yours. I think he was just trying to convey some general concepts to electrically...
  7. Tuning a Lightning

    This guy's pay grade allows him to draw it (Red Circles). Dude knows his stuff when it comes to efficiency. Comes from this older video reposted:
  8. Ticking from 12v battery compartment

    It is sad that we buy the extended warranty for peace of mind and we still have to say "Hopefully". Not much peace there. It sounds like both dealers and Ford would prefer to label an issue as not covered if they can. Aside from spending more money on a lawyer, anyone has ever been in a...
  9. Service vehicle soon - Failure Coolant Valve Not covered by powertrain warranty?

    That explains a lot. Can you share what kind of coverage you got for your extended warranty?
  10. SR to ER battery swap DIY project

    ā€˜Replacing a module by dealer cost as much as the entire pack cost on eBay.
  11. SR to ER battery swap DIY project

    I have gone outside my SR range only 5 days out of the past three years. And during all those 5 days superchargers were available to Ford. I am already carrying cells I don’t use that often. ER makes no sense for my use case. I love my Lightning but my next EV will be much more efficient...

    I keep my fingers crossed that is indeed the case and as my mama told me I am just that special.

    What is the difference? Do they see more info?
  15. Service vehicle soon - Failure Coolant Valve Not covered by powertrain warranty?

    That would be fair if they charged for their time. The thing is for a problem that has happened many times before I go for my diagnosis, I expect to be a database across U.S. and even Canada that as soon as the tech types the symptoms gives him the likely causes, hours of labor and parts...
  16. powertrain malfunction with 100% power - Code P0DE9

    Does that mean if this part has a design flaw, it has not been fixed? In other words, if they fixed it, would it have a different part number in 25 than it did in 23? I have an appointment in a week. After it is done, I will post the results to confirm what he problem was.

    One more Did I buy my first EV too early? Summary: 1/2 the cost of LFP Keeps 90% of it’s capacity at -40F operate at +140F without degradation. No instantaneous combustion. Goes to mass production this December. energy density 175 Wh/kg Lasts 10,000 charger cycles before it drops below 80%...
  18. Service vehicle soon - Failure Coolant Valve Not covered by powertrain warranty?

    That is the whole point of the diagnoses fee. Get you invested so you don't leave. It also test your willingness to write blank checks. Makes me wonder how many of those 10 was really needed. My understanding is that for this issue you must have gotten a "Power-train Malfunction" Message...
  19. powertrain malfunction with 100% power - Code P0DE9

    If I had to guess, I would say a combination of cheap parts and bad design that overloads them. I am hoping most of the failures happen within warranty period to help Ford make better decisions during design stage. However the more likely case is that if this part is replaced with the same...
  20. powertrain malfunction with 100% power - Code P0DE9

    Your theory is the top runner now. For the past 6 months, I never saw power bellow 100% so I freaked out when I saw 96% at the same time as the wrench of death. this morning I charged the battery and that took the battery temp from 50s to 60s and power is back to 100%. Seasons change. Who...
