Minor gripe, but this is one of my pet peeves with this truck! It takes 3 full seconds from the moment the button is pressed until the moment the frunk begins to open. Then another 2-3 seconds to actually open. The actuator speed being slow is understandable given the size and weight of the...
Maybe dumb question... but it's a Monday.
Two nights ago I packed the truck for an early morning mountain bike outing. Filled up my hydration pack with 3L of water and placed it on the passenger seat. The next morning (yesterday) I found that the valve was pinched and the entire pack emptied. I...
Not sure if this will help anyone (or whether it's already been addressed). Over the past few weeks my FordPass has been erratic and unresponsive. Showing wrong SoC, not letting me change charge parameters, things like that. I noticed recently that this behavior only happened whenever the truck...
So I just punched a destination into the Trip Planner and this is what I get:
Those are some outrageous estimates.
46% to 75% in 5 minutes?? In my SR truck, this would imply an average of 5.8 kWh/min, or 348 kW!
15% to 66% in 9 minutes would be 340 kW
10% to 51% in 6 minutes would be 410...
Hello folks,
A few months ago I did the DIY ACC mod (adaptive cruise plus lane centering) on my Pro. It works perfectly and it has been an amazing upgrade.
Hypothetically, if I were to sell the truck privately, what would be the best strategy to address this mod? Do I feature it as...
I finally had the chance to try out my NACS adapter (provided by Ford) during a road trip. I had 5 charging sessions (at 4 different superchargers) and they all had very similar profiles: It initially ramped up to near 160kW, held that for about 18-20 kWh delivered, then progressively ramped...
Hey everyone,
Just putting this out there - I'm about to do the ACC+LKA mod on my Pro. I thought I'd check to see if anyone around me might be interested in tackling this together. I just ordered my parts and will work on it in a few weeks.
Also looking to add heated steering wheel in the...
Anybody who bought a tax credit-qualifying Lightning in 2023 already filed their taxes? I'm planning to do mine soon (I file by myself using Freetaxusa). Wondering if anybody's run into any surprises. I got confirmation from my dealer that they filed the 15400 form.
Hello folks,
I just received an email from Ford that my truck has an open service action that needs my attention. When I log in to my Ford account, I see 3 listed "Customer Satisfaction Programs" (image attached). Is this an across the board thing? Anybody else getting these and know anything...
I've been playing around with FORscan, following Livnitup's tutorial. I have the free 2-month extended license and the OBDLink EX USB adapter (the one recommended in the tutorial).
I just went through the process of backing-up all the as-built modules. I've been reading through the ACC/LCA mod...
Can anybody recommend a Ford dealer in the CT area with an EV friendly and capable service department? I have a DCFC battery temperature issue with my Lightning and my local dealer hasn't been super helpful. Maybe worth a shot asking here.
So I have a base Pro trim (EG110A). On the window sticker it lists "Pre-Collision Assist with AEB". It has given me warnings when a car in front of me brakes suddenly or if it thinks my own deceleration is not sufficient to avoid a crash.
What I'd like to know is: what sensor(s) does this...
Just came back from a weekend camping trip. On the way up (Friday), I stopped at the EA charger in West Lebanon, NH. It was about 100 degrees outside (car temp gauge read up to 102 sitting in the hot parking lot). I plugged into one of the 350kW stations and it began delivering 155kW. I don't do...
I've been using the 3-month trial AT&T hotspot, which I actually really like and might consider paying for it in the future (I have a very cheap by-the-gig family phone data plan, so this actually would make sense for road trips). Yesterday I finally came around to setting up Android Auto, and...
Hey folks,
I have a '23 Lightning Pro (SR). While I'm loving the truck, I think a Model Y would better fit the needs of my family. I figured there are some folks out there who got tired of waiting for a Pro and got a model Y instead (with the new price drops). How about a swap? If you're...
Just curious - I know that us Pro owners are in the minority but from the threads I've looked at regarding updates it all seems to be XLT+ owners. I got my Pro 3 weeks ago and there has not been any updates available yet.
Hello folks,
I've had my Pro for just a bit over a week. Getting the hang of most features, but I can't figure out how to retrieve a planned route (made using FordPass) in the truck's built-in navigation. Basically, I plan a route using FordPass, hit 'Save Trip Plan', a popup message titled...
Hi everyone,
I made these basic lookup tables to help me compare cost-per-mile between ICE and EV cars for various fuel and electricity costs. Nothing super sophisticated, but I thought I'd share. Should be pretty self-explanatory how to use. Also attached is the Excel file in case anybody...
