  1. Did a Test Tow with my 26' Camper/Trailer/Toy Hauler

    You must only tow this monster a couple of times per year, either that or only move it a few miles at a time? Otherwise Diesel was clearly the better tool for the job.
  2. Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

    Glad to hear that it is covered by the original warranty. SAD to think that 2nd module failure happened at 82k miles .... Maybe keeping ours "forever" isn't such a great idea ... I have convinced myself that these were manufacturing QC issues that would (should) show up well before the 8...
  3. ATTN: Ford's Annual Price Increase on ESPs (Extended Service Plans) Coming Soon - Lock in your Granger Warranty before Oct 1st!

    I am watching this closely. My policy seems straight forward: Additional Coverage: Lighting Coverage: Repair or replace bulbs, HID headlamps, and LED assemblies for electrical failures. Please keep us posted about the status of your issues, it seems the light bars are without question...
  4. How Much Battery Capacity And Range Has My Ford F-150 Lightning Lost After 3 Years and 38,000 Miles?

    This is the most important aspect when reading all of the test data about depth of discharge failure rates we were reading back 2 years ago.
  5. Range? What's the effect on range of various MPH?

    This is my experience too, I dial the speed down or up depending on head/tail wind while watching my estimated battery level at my destination.
  6. Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

    Too bad on this, please keep us posted on what they find was the cause.
  7. Anti-lock brake fault

    Have you confirmed the brake fluid level? Probably far more complex an issue .... sorry https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/brake-fluid-refill.25263/
  8. Adaptive aids for dogs to ride along.

    I would always allow dogs a chance to ride in the cab until they prove they do something inappropriate. NOT the same with every human I come across!
  9. Why isn’t the Lightning getting more of the gas F150 market?

    When asked I refer to miles/gallon. I say I get about 70 mpg at home and 30+ mpg doing 70 on the freeway. And it is the best and cheapest truck I have ever driven.
  10. Anyone buy an PremiumCare Extended Service Plan for Lightning, but get assigned an ICE version?

    I am not sure of your concern, but when I bought a new truck and this is my experience, a used truck plan will be a little different, but the entire extended service plan is based on your VIN, which will define it for your Lightning Electric Vehicle. The VIN on the Service Plan needs to...
  11. Air bags for towing/ camper on the lightning ?

    Here is a similar request, and their solution. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/uprating-rear-suspension-f150-lightning.18801/#post-404728
  12. Ford Experience HORRIBLE - Gold Certified truck been in shop for 2.5 weeks...

    Thanks for the update Hate to hear that FORD hasn't got a solution by this time.
  13. Empty coolant reservoir

    The coolant system has many spots for air to hang out. The pump will continue to purge the air into the bottle over several days of driving. You have 9 battery modules each with rubber connection hoses, all within the battery pack. If it leaks inside the pack, that is not good. Leaks outside...
  14. Not charging correctly after battery module and charge port replacement

    That is not my experience from 28% to 80%. I am at a loss to understand why the truck is controlling the charge rate to a limit of 90 with SOC that low. I believe it is primarily temperature extremes and SOC that normally makes my truck slow the charging rate. My only idea: How long ago...
  15. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    Welcome, you will find a large cross section of truck users here using their trucks in many ways. Your history with the 2016 diesel should be easily surpassed with a Lightning. As long as FPL keeps those deals, it is a great idea to buy a EV. The use of DC fast charging will at least triple...
  16. 2024 Pro Extended Range - No Federal Rebate?

    Interesting/confusing looking at the vehicles & manufactures that no longer are approved, for example the 2024 ID.4 among many others. Yet if you can find a 2023 new Lariat or XLT you can get the 2025 Credit.
  17. Connected Navigation Expired.

    Without the connected navigation the manual states: "Connected Navigation, the system will essentially become a moving map without any destination routing functionality if the subscription expires " I will miss one aspect of this system. I like to monitor the anticipated charge level at my...
  18. Ford Universal EV Platform Announced: Innovation Meets Efficiency in New EV Platform, Assembly Process and Midsize Truck

    Fordauthority.com is guessing it will be about 51 kWh. Making everyday usable 80% about 40 kWh. It will need to be VERY efficient.
  19. Ford Universal EV Platform Announced: Innovation Meets Efficiency in New EV Platform, Assembly Process and Midsize Truck

    From Fordauthority.com: "... the new Ford EV pickup could use the Ranchero name, based on a recent trademark filing ..." I find this strange as the Ranchero always seemed like a mostly useless vehicle for anything heavier than a few hundred pounds, at least those produced in the 1970's, and...
