Iāve been looking at these trucks since the beginning, never bit the bullet to buy one, just too pricey for me here in Canada. Now the used prices are coming down. Iām looking again. I found an ad for a private sale, for a 2022 silver XLT ER, in Canada Includes the 312 package and has max tow...
So, still have the Lightning bug. In browsing around, I found a dealer in rural western Canada that somehow appears to have 2 unsold 2023 Lightning XLT ER's still on their lot. Although they don't have a heat pump, they have the 312 package that have the faster onboard chargers, etc. They...
Simplistic question, I know, and yes, I have used the search button on the forum. But at a very simple level, if a Tesla can differentiate between the different types of superchargers, and adapt to different protocol or handshake to recognize and accept a charge from them, Then, what is the...
Long time lurker with occasional questions and posts. Closer everyday to pulling the trigger on an EV truck. Found a '23 untitled dealer demo with 2k kms on it for a pretty good deal. Except it is 3000km from me on the other side of the country. Probably would have it shipped but am...
Stopped by the Chevy dealer last week to gander at the Silverado EV. They had a 4WT on the lot, and I didn't realize that Canadian pricing is WAY more aggressive than in the US. The 4WT is $83k CDN (approx $60K USD) and the 3WT is $74.5k CDN ($54K USD). Still a ton of money, but I was...
I searched but couldnāt find any tests or road trip reports of the effectiveness of the new Lightning heat pump. Anybody have anything to direct me to? It is important as to whether I might get a ā24 SR or go for a ā23 ER leftover. Iām in Canada. Granted, not easy to do a test test this...
Have been waffling for a long time about getting a Lightning and getting more serious.
Looking at XLT ERās which in Canada include 312A pkg. There are a few ā23s in my area (Maritimes), still listed at MSRP CAD $87k ish but betting I could probably get $8-10k off with some bargaining and...
I was speaking with the sales manager at my local dealership, considering purchase of an XLT with ER battery. My understanding was that the ER battery trucks came automatically with the Ford Charge Station Pro. He told me that is no longer the case, that it was only for people who fulfilled...
I am in Canada, decided that I do need to go for the extended range battery even though the pricing and tax incentives for the standard range here are much better. The ER battery is still priced out of what I can afford but starting to see some movement. I had an offer from a dealer last week...
Wondering how this works and if there is an etiquette around it. For a road trip, Iād be hoping to stay at hotels that offered a level 2 charger and charge as high as 80-100% overnight for the next trip leg. I can search on booking sites and plug share for hotels with chargers, but Iād be...
Although my brain tells me to wait another a couple of years and let models with newer technology come out, more competition, better charging, and overall hopefully lower price points; I am still kind of obsessed with the current lightning and still thinking about pulling the trigger on one.
I...
My Canadian dealer can now retail order me an SR Pro, base price $59,900 Cdn ($45k USD). It qualifies for a $10k govt incentive where I live (5k federal 5k provincial). That now seems a smokinā deal to me. So despite worries about short range, it isnāt worth the effective $25k jump to ER. Iād...
So I had pretty much given up on the Lightning after last yearās reservation schmozzle and huge price increase. Was thinking about either waiting to buy used, or wait for T3 in a couple of years.
Found a Ford dealer here in Canada who has a fleet order that was cancelled by the customer and...
If I ever get a Lightning, Iām kind of obsessed with the Max Recline seats. Sadly, only available on the platinum. I wish so badly it could be a standalone option on the lower trims.. I wonder how crazy it would be to try and retrofit the seat, either as a new part or from a junkyard...
With all the excitement for the US configuration going live, any idea when the same will be available to Canadians?
Iām wondering if there will be some similar ābait and switchā re XLT ER pricing here. Of course, the Pro here was always fleet-only and not for retail customers so Iām long since...
So looking at the planned production numbers, and when I placed my reservation, I doubt realistically that Iāll be seeing an actual truck until 2023 at earliest and with usual delays more like 2024. The second gen Lightning is supposed to be model year 2025. By then hoping for big...
Hi, first post. Honda Ridgeline owner (love it), but wanting to make a move to EV and happily holding my Lightning reservation.
Two things have me concerned. First, I see that the Mach-E has been showing pretty terrible projected depreciation. I see that is the case for a lot of EV's, with...
