You had to think someone would do it for you Brian? You can ask me to delete if you want. :)

Ahh, I get it now—Ford is pivoting the next-generation F-150 Lightning to an Extended-Range Electric Vehicle (EREV) because that setup actually fits the real-world needs of most current Lightning owners (and probably most truck buyers in general). We bought a truck that we only truly use as a...

Dear Ford Motor Company, As dedicated owners of the current all-electric F-150 Lightning, we fully support your innovation in developing the next-generation F-150 Lightning EREV to address range concerns and expand appeal for long-haul towing and road trips. However, please ensure that you also...

Maybe this was said somewhere already, but it seems obvious that Ford should not kill the awesome Lightning, and just keep developing it going forward. The developement would be the add-on which is the Lightning-REV for those that want to upgrade to a generator if the standard Lightning causes...

I'm betting Ford will figure out they just need 3 tiered powertrain options on a shared platform. They have a great thing going for the majority of current Lightning owners and this way Ford avoids alienating early adopters like us who value the silent, instant-torque drive without the...

I know AI is not widely excepted here and many other places, but I thought I would just post something for the topic and the season.

I would put my bets on MillieChliette's theory is correct. :)

Ouch, so if my math is correct, if you are getting what I get on average of 2.0 mi kwh and gas price is around $3.00 per gal, at 31 cents you are not gaining/saving from an ICE F150 getting 20 mpg. ??

Residential In Sioux Center, Iowa. 24 hr rates. No peak rates. They give a free 48amp charger so they can monitor when it is being used. Not too many EV's in colder country. Summer (usage in June-September) $0.095 per kilowatt hour Winter (usage in October-May) $0.083 per kilowatt hour

Talk to your dealer on the 12v battery issue. They can bring up all the stats using Ford's integrated diagnostic system (IDS) and in your case, the stat that shows the voltage, capacity, and sulfation levels of the 12V battery. IOW, they can easily tell if it needs to be replaced.

I had this same issue in the past month. Never an issue and then something changed or updated and required me to put in a new passcode.

Well, with you saying that it did everything you wanted it to, that says a lot about your full satisfaction with the Lightning idea and that it actually works for you...many have come to realize that if it actually does work for you, especially with it's charging and distance limitations, there...

I would get prepared to realize you may need to be permanently return it. Hopefully you can find a deal on another one like it. You will also want to hope that once they figure out which part(s) it is, they will not be on backorder for XX weeks. :(

If this statement is in fact true, then yes, why wouldn't Pro Power On Board default to off or at least have a setting to make it default to off? Earlier forums here have stated PPoB uses no power if nothing is plugged in.

One of my best likes and for entertainment only, the new 2035 Ford F150 White Lightning Bolt EX.

That was just a name a came up with as I was adding to this forum. With those specs, hardly anyone would want to pump gas again. But in case you want a pic, I will attach one. Don't get too excited, it's not real.

In another 3 years, hopefully you can resurrect that dusty charger and get the new 2028, 500 mi, 15 min charge Lightning Strike EX.

The phrase suggests that your vehicle is from an initial production run ("Job-1") and is equipped with a high voltage battery (HVB) that supports an electric motor with a power output of 131 kW (approximately 175.54 580 hp).

That is close if not a bit more than I get. The only way to get to 2 is going with a 10-15 mph wind.

There has been a lot of actual mi/kWh data in this forum showing fairly large variations. We all know there are lots of factors, my biggest one is cold temps and then wind, but I still think some of it has to do with the battery pacs themselves and this actual data points to that. Most may...
