  1. Checking for updates with FDRS

    The question I want answered is how quickly you can actually do updates with mongoose and FDRS. Having a Mongoose might be a good investment - but if you can only do two updates in a weekend... :/
  2. The Insane Journey from a Written-Off Flash to a 'New' Lariat! My own Planes, Trains, And Automobiles Episode!

    I watched this the other day - good to see you're back on the road. Hope those errors clear up! :)
  3. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    I flew to Michigan once for the launch of a car… stayed with someone I knew in Lansing and borrowed one of their bikes to ride into Detroit. Scariest ride, ever.
  4. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    For you… maybe. For me? I live in the coast range in Oregon. We sometimes get fog that reduces visibility to less than ten feet. That’s why I’m looking at SAE approved fogs. As for the rear? Hoping it will help prevent rear ending when in areas where people drive too fast and too close in the...
  5. Tow or Haul Motorcycle?

    Ramps, a proper wheel stand, and if you value your suspension and your truck, canyon dancers. Oh, and if it doesn't fit in the back without the tailgate down, make sure you disable the auto up-down. I've also towed with my bike in a garden trailer, but that was when I went to the DMV for...
  6. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    I’ll probably put them up front near the air intake but not blocking it. As for brights? NO. fog lamps are not meant to be used like that. SAE approved ones are designed to give a wide low spread in fog…. You use them with dipped lights. I’ve never understood why anyone would want to use them...
  7. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    Welp, I ended up ordering the switch. For those playing along at home, the closet match for me (I have a '23 Lariat) is LB5Z-11654-TC. If you have a newer Lightning with the right/left mirror zonal lighting on the light cluster, there are other options that should also translate - based on my...
  8. Class Action Lawsuit - Home Integration System

    Maybe ford will help us install them instead … I know Patrick and Liv were impressed but the chances of this happening are… zero. THat’s a shame because it seems a really good system. I’ve had to twist some arms with my FSCP problems. Hopefully I speak to someone next week.
  9. Software Auto-Update Disabled Until Ford Can Prove They Can Be Responsible ...

    Can someone share picture of this mythical IPC clock, please? I say mythical, because I’ve never seen it
  10. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    While I have yet to confirm, I believe it's on the BDM - I just have to enable it in Forscan.... and run my own wires... and... and.... *sigh*
  11. Important Update: Ford EV Roadmap & Future of F-150 Lightning (EREV Next Gen Model) - ⛔️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS

    You know, instead of being nasty, you could try empathy…. People are upset at what to many is a backward step.
  12. Will You be upgrading to the Lightning EREV?

    There are many reasons why, but the latest is a proposed bill that you can’t have multiple citizenships. It will likely not pass, but of my passports I’d have to choose one…
  13. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    I'm curious too, but let's be clear: the front fogs are for situations where glare-free already struggle. I grew up in a place where front fogs were optional and rear fogs were mandatory. I had it drilled into me when and how to use them. Up here in the coast range in the PNW, we get HEAVY...
  14. Will You be upgrading to the Lightning EREV?

    I'm most certainly a "no". I'm in my late 40s. My partner is in their mid-50s. We want a chance to retire - at least if we don't have to flee this country. (I'm a triple citizen, so look up the news). Our goal has always been to pay off all our consumer loans int he next two years, and then our...
  15. Important Update: Ford EV Roadmap & Future of F-150 Lightning (EREV Next Gen Model) - ⛔️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS

    But did we examine why? Because, as an industry insider, I have many ideas. 1) Ford promised a low-cost version that excited pre-orders, then locked out the Pro trim extended range to regular customers (and put the price of the standard range up). 2) Ford pushed the high-end models...
  16. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    That's what I thought. Guess I'll be running wires then ;) The BCM does have the fuse and pinout for it, so hopefully...
  17. Front Fogs - Does Any Wiring Exist?

    I'm looking at adding front fogs, but I'd love to use OEM wiring if possible. I know the BCM has pinouts for front fogs (and actually rear, according to the factory manual) - but I'd love to know if the wiring already exists, to the bumper or not. I haven't taken the front off, so hoping...
  18. Class Action Lawsuit - Home Integration System

    Yes, but I suspect we won't get squat. Class actions usually end up giving claimants a few bucks for a few beers, and that's it :/
  19. Class Action Lawsuit - Home Integration System

    Starting to think we need an open-source alternative. We know the Inverter from Delta is fine. We know that the truck can do V2X on other chargers. We need an alternative.
  20. Important Update: Ford EV Roadmap & Future of F-150 Lightning (EREV Next Gen Model) - ⛔️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS

    People who say this is a step forward have never owned a PHEV that's broken down. It's more complicated than an EV and less reliable. i3 REx was less reliable than the i3. Volt was less reliable than the Bolt I've been covering this industry for 20 years, and seriously, it feels like...
