  1. 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning only Charging to 78%

    It sounds like your dealer did not properly balance the battery before slapping it back in your truck. So basically one of your battery modules is hitting 100% before the rest. This triggers charging to stop early. If possible I would go to a different dealer. Either way the dealer needs to...
  2. New Tire Offering: Goodyear Wrangler ElectricDrive AT

    Got mine installed this morning. 275/65/20. Only driven a few miles so far so can’t comment on efficiency. My truck does have a 1.5” level if anyone is wondering. Love the look and they feel great. Haven’t taken it on the highway yet but around town they are very quiet. Excited to get them in...
  3. New Tire Offering: Goodyear Wrangler ElectricDrive AT

    Looks great! Can't wait to get mine on Saturday.
  4. New Tire Offering: Goodyear Wrangler ElectricDrive AT

    Totally agree. The side stamping is questionable. After I adjust for the sizing on forscan I'll be sure to report my efficiency numbers.
  5. New Tire Offering: Goodyear Wrangler ElectricDrive AT

    I just ordered a set of 275/65r20 (34s) last night. Getting them installed next Saturday. Goodyear has a 20% off coupon on their website right now that pushed me over the edge. I originally wanted a set of the Toyo Open Country EV but they appear to be completely sold out across the country...
  6. Toyo Open Country A/T EV tires released

    So I went to Americas Tire today and they agreed to match Fords discounted price. Unfortunately they also can’t find a set of the sl load 275/65r20 tires that I’m after. They are going to reach out to Toyo directly on Monday and see what we can do.
  7. Toyo Open Country A/T EV tires released

    The advisor did mention I might have better luck with tire rack or equivalent as they have more warehouses to pull from. Although they are currently backordered on Tirerack. That's a great idea. I may see if America's Tire locate some and match Ford's deal.
  8. Toyo Open Country A/T EV tires released

    I inquired with my dealer for a set of 275/65R20 to take advantage of the buy 3 get 1 for 1$ special and they could only find 2 tires scattered throughout the whole country with their suppliers. Luckily my stock tires are fine at 25k miles but am still hoping to grab a pair of toyos on sale at...
  9. Charging While Driving w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extender for F-150 Lightning) - Testing

    I love the flexibility of this. I messed around with a solar tonneau cover a while back but ultimately removed it due to the inconvenience of plugging and unplugging the system for a few miles a day. If there was an AC inlet in the bed that could potentially remove a lot of the annoyance and...
  10. Charging While Driving w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extender for F-150 Lightning) - Testing

    While I would realistically hardly ever need this, I would install the inlet strictly to shut down any EV truck nay sayers I may conversate with (sadly there are a lot in my line of work). Bravo by the way. Love the ingenuity and will follow your future updates with great interest.
  11. Spied: F-150 Lightning "Tremor" Off-Road Prototype

    I don’t think that prototype has any lift on it. My lightning has a 1.5” level on it and looks a good bit taller than this prototype. Also 275/65/18? Really ford? Thats only a 32” wheel. The standard lightning with the 20 or 22” rims are 33’s. Where’s the beef?
  12. Overnight Charging Slower than usual the past week

    Either you have a cheap leviton nema 14-50 outlet that has a poor connection with the mobile charger which is causing overheating or your mobile charger is faulty causing it to overheat. Both cases are fairly common unfortunately. I would guess its the mobile charger that's faulty. If that is...
  13. Edmunds 3 year Lightning review

    My previous Pro developed a very annoying squeak in the drivers seat. However it was easily cured with a can of silicone spray and just unzipping the back of the seat for access. My xlt has been perfect.
  14. Ford releasing Bronco EV on China

    This would be perfect for my wife’s next car.
  15. Comma AI self driver assistant On Sale- is it worth it?

    I may try removing the fitcam off its mirror mount and moving it to the right for clearance. I'll have to stick it on with some adhesive pads. Power wise the two will not have any conflicts as the fitcam uses power off the mirror and the Comma uses power off the IPMA module and OBD2 under the...
  16. Comma AI self driver assistant On Sale- is it worth it?

    I got it in the mail over the weekend. Have not installed it yet but currently have a fitcam installed. As of right now it looks like I need to lose the fitcam to install this. Otherwise the comma will be sitting right in the middle of the windshield and I would hate the look of that. Will...
  17. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

    I did but I was placing stakes for the other guys and managed to stop in a really bad spot. If I had aired down it likely would not have been a problem. Obviously glamis is real soft to so just be sure to air down and only stop on downhills if you can. I miss Glamis. Used to go riding out...
  18. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

    Real good. That photo was my old standard range pro on “all terrains”. I have since upgraded to an xlt extended range on all seasons. I definitely feel that the old pro was a bit more sure footed on the sand. That said they are both great. I did manage to get the xlt stuck on a really soft...
  19. Stick to Rotary Shift Knob Conversion w/ 3D Printed Rotary Shifter Holder

    Wow that looks so much better @mr.Magoo. I was on the fence about this mod but you may have just put me over the edge with your design.

    Looks great!
