  1. Ford to trim workforce at Lightning plant from 2100 to 700

    Seeing as you seem to be a stickler for detail, 55K is well over double last year's 24,165 sales.
  2. Off-Road Camping Review: F-150 Lightning with Four Wheel Campers Raven Slide-In Camper

    What a great video. Need to make the trip up there in mine. Looking like we’ll be there in May.
  3. Priority Update-23-PU1113-UNX-DC [Connectivity]

    May also be related to the (hopefully) imminent 7.0.0 BlueCruise 1.4 deployment and the 7.0.2 driver assistance updates - 7.0.0 in particular is probably a significant update.
  4. Lightning has a hum, does yours??

    You’re not going crazy. I’ve noticed this too. Mine sometimes has a low level hum that wasn’t there before. It’s subtle, but it’s there.
  5. How good is Blue Oval charging network for auto connect and payment?

    Plug and Charge works flawlessly, but as others have noted it doesn't work with your EA Pass+ membership so you pay significantly more. Until Ford figures that out there's no reason to use it over the EA app. Note you can store your EA pass plus membership in your Wallet and only need to hold...
  6. Second winter with our Lightning... just put a deposit on a Ramcharger. Public charging is awful

    Yes, and how often is anyone driving that kind of distance without a couple of stops anyway? You can't do a trip like that in the Lightning without stopping, but who is doing trips like that without stopping in any other vehicle? People have to compare apples to apples. Charging doesn't...
  7. Second winter with our Lightning... just put a deposit on a Ramcharger. Public charging is awful

    We've rarely needed to public charge but when we have it's mostly been plain sailing. with that said, it's EA who are clearly the weak link in CCS EV ownership and the good news is that things are about to get a whole lot easier once Tesla open up. I'd certainly want to try that before jumping...
  8. Anyone want a somewhat low numbered Cybtertruck Reservation?

    take another look at your documentation. It’s in my agreement, and it will be in yours. it was not in the original agreement, that only had the no dealer resale clause too, but it is in the version you execute when you place an order.
  9. Anyone want a somewhat low numbered Cybtertruck Reservation?

    Your purchase agreement includes a clause that you can't resell for twelve months and requires you to initially to offer it back to Tesla who have the option to buy it for MSRP less mileage deduction. If Tesla elects to not purchase it you can sell it. If you sell without offering it to Tesla...
  10. Anyone want a somewhat low numbered Cybtertruck Reservation?

    I had a launch day reservation and received one of the initial batch of Foundation Series order invitations. I did place an order, I had originally reserved a tri-motor but ended up placing an order for the AWD. Tesla has just contacted me for registration details etc. With all that said, I'm...
  11. Ford Reduces F-150 Lightning Production to Match Customer Demand

    Yes, they're a major force in the automotive business, aren't they. regardless, it's not quite the "gotcha" you probably thought it was. No one else is building Pro equivalents either, because there's no money in that trim level. Tesla quietly dropped the 40K cybertruck, GM aren't building any...
  12. Ford Reduces F-150 Lightning Production to Match Customer Demand

    There probably aren't too many business schools that teach the importance of ramping up on loss-making product at the expense of more profitable product. Sometimes things are as they seem. If Ford could make any money on the Pro trim they would build more of them rather than cut a shift.
  13. Ford Reduces F-150 Lightning Production to Match Customer Demand

    i don’t see it that way, there’s really not much margin in the Pro trim, so they don’t want to make or sell them. The “lose money on every deal, but make it up on volume“ business model isn’t the most sustainable…
  14. Cybertruck light towing range test - 115 miles !

    lol there's someone who's also a member here who's going to extraordinary lengths in the thread to try to polish that turd...
  15. One Pedal vs Two Pedal Driving — which is more efficient?

    So I wondered about that too and I keep coming to the conclusion that it's something that would only be true if the brakes worked the way that some in the thread seem to think they work (1PD delivering more regen more often than you get in 2PD). I've not seen any real evidence of that, and...
  16. One Pedal vs Two Pedal Driving — which is more efficient?

    The brakes don't work that way, the truck uses regen to brake by default and only when you ask for more than regen can provide does it switch to the friction brakes.
  17. One Pedal vs Two Pedal Driving — which is more efficient?

    I've noticed absolutely no difference in efficiency between 1PD and 2PD. The Lightning has blended brakes and it will regen whenever it can regardless of driving mode. You're not using the friction brakes anyway until the truck thinks the regen isn't sufficient and switches over. I generally...
  18. Next GEN Ford F-150 Lightning Better Than Cybertruck: Farley

    Fundamentally disagree that the current Lightning does not meet the needs of most truck buyers. I'd argue it absolutely does. What it doesn't meet as well are certain specific edge cases. Ford has better data than any of us on its buyers and their actual use cases and I've no reason to doubt...
  19. Ford - scale up Pro production instead of the trims that are languishing

    Yes I'm shocked that Ford isn't jumping all over that "lose money on every sale but make it up with volume" business plan.
  20. Accelerator

    you have engaged either one pedal drive or the hold function.
