  1. 10,000 mi service issues and questions

    My truck just turned over 46k with the original Grabbers on them. I have them rotated every 10k at my local tire shop who told me last time that I could get 50k out of this set and it looks as if they are right. I’ve never bought a set of tires from a stealership. My vehicles have gone in for...
  2. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    I did nothing as well; just started working. I don’t have the latest update for iOS or FordPass either.
  3. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    @Ford Motor Company any idea on what has happened? This is happening to people running the newest Apple update & those who are not.
  4. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    As already referenced in this thread, it’s happened to those running 18.3.1 and to those of us who don’t have that update.
  5. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    I’m not running the newest update on my phone. I learned a long time ago to keep automatic updates turned off. :)
  6. Battery Level in Apple Carplay (Apple Maps) no longer available

    Add me to the broken list. It stopped working today. Update: I drove a total of 212 miles today and the closest it came to being accurate was at the end of the day at 30 miles from my house. It stopped giving me the battery accuracy warning and was off by 3%(less than what I actually had)...
  7. âś… Ford Resumes Shipping NACS Charging Adapters (February 2025 batch)

    I wanted to share my personal experience. I’m also the second owner of my truck. I purchased last spring and immediately ordered the free charger(before I even took possession of the truck as it was an out of state purchase). The account on the truck was still in the first owner’s name so this...
  8. California Stops Some Clean Air vehicle mandates

    I don’t think it will have any impact on personal EVs. Most people’s opinions are already made up about the matter. I, personally, was pleased by this news. California’s current mandates already have the cleanest burning diesel engines in the country. Give it ten years and let the technology...
  9. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    I wouldn’t change a thing. :) My Lightning is currently in the body shop from an accident so I’ve been in my ICE F-150 for 3 straight weeks. It makes me realize how much I miss the Lightning. My backseat is a mess with everything that normally is in the frunk. :crackup:
  10. Lemon/buyback and Pro Trim

    Good luck with Capital Ford; I couldn’t get a salesman to return my call. You could try Dennis Sneed Ford in Missouri. They specialize in buybacks. Salesman seemed nice enough and wasn’t overly aggressive. I just got a better deal somewhere else. I bought a Lariat ER buyback. The buyback was...
  11. Battery Percentage level when not driving for extended period?

    Hi all, I’ll be going on an international trip soon and haven’t decided what percentage I should leave on my truck before I leave. I know I won’t be leaving it at 80/90% charge; I was thinking about leaving it with 40/50%. Am I overthinking this? Any suggestions appreciated.
  12. Would You Buy A Lightning Again?

    Absolutely without a second of hesitation! Great truck, excellent ride, & access to Tesla superchargers! The only thing, other than more range/software updates, that I would like is the King Ranch trim line. *Full discourse: I am Ford loyalist with this being my 6th Ford product.
  13. Windshield replaced?

    I agree, my ICE f-150 had a sound screen windshield and I got several cracks in it over a single harvest season; replaced it with a non sound screen windshield and have had no issues.
  14. Appointment just "gets you in line?" Is this a Ford thing?

    The dealer I’m using(small town, pop: 6,500) is taking care of the above mentioned CSP at the same time as the 30k service. I’ll drop it off at 7:30am and they said they will perform the update while they are servicing the truck. Should be a couple of hours. The dealership where we bought my...
  15. Is Anybody Happy With Their Lightning?

    Happy with my Lightning? That’s a bit of an understatement for me. :) This has been my best truck by far and I write that as a loyal Ford owner. I’ve been telling people since I purchased a Tesla adapter the truck is near perfect(I’d probably say it was perfect if it had the King Ranch trim...
  16. Looking at a 2023 Platinum w/ 3k miles... What's a good price nowadays?

    I’d look online and find a dealer knowledgable with out of state transactions. I bought my truck 2,200 miles from my home but saved about $7,000 after adding the transportation costs. This is the second truck in a row I’ve bought out of state and it was a pleasant experience all around.
  17. Tesla Charging Station Cable Length Issues!

    Here are some of my Tesla supercharger adventures. As you can see I’ve actually had more trouble with ICE vehicles than Teslas! :crackup:
