Well put. Did the exact same thing in the winter and pretty much summed up the differences. It’s mostly when I ordered my first lightning lariat I couldn’t get any discount and was lucky to pay MSRP. After two years you could make your own deal and ford basically supplementing your monthly...
Welcome ! I had a 23 raptor and traded it in after 3 months for my first lighting. Got a second lighting (upgraded to a platinum for less than a lariat ) because I loved it so much - still have a f350 that I can’t part with because of the diesel. But I think if the two like kids. You love both...
That doesn’t look like it has a lift at all like the f150 tremor and to me looks like the same rake and tire size as a regular lightning. Is anyone going to buy a tremor with no lift and similar wheels and a tremor side steps?
I saw a new shipment of 25 ICE f150 STX and they have the lariat...
Just my 2 cents. I don’t think you will like the power boost coming from a lightning. Shifting from electric to gas is annoying and cumbersome vs the lightning. And the lightning tows better …,,IMO.
I would rather get a super duty than an f150 ICE.
This is coming from someone who has had...
Fords not perfect but has done a really good job since 22’ trying to build their ecosystem while relying on other networks. If you use the ford pass set up and have your credit card - it really is mostly plug and play . Most people sign up for Tesla when going on a long road trip because it’s...
or …maybe they realized they were paying 350 for not doing anything.
What’s the worst that can happen from losing 350? Not get BC 1.4 that I still haven’t received ?
I already pay $200’a year for an EV fee here in Georgia. If anyone thinks the south is cheap think again. Georgia is the second highest insurance rates in the country. The only saving grace is the south has so much business going (business friendly ) on that we put up with it. When I say...
Very similar to my first car 27 years ago
a Nissan p/u 4 banger single cab/rwd.
this truck would be great possibly for that or a service industry truck like a termite company that bust needs bed space and a regular cab for one technician.
it very well might. An extra inch of play might be all you need. I would think anything above 2” you need specially fitted shocks for a 3” IMO. Also the casters Come into play. What psi and what rating are your AT3’s?
I bought my lariat at the end of 22’ at full
MSRP and 6.5 interest rate. I traded it in for a heavily discounted 24’ for $15k less than what I bought my lariat for with 0% interest with several more bells and whistles. The only thing I miss is how much faster the 23 charged on the 80 amp and...
Not sure what sympathizing has to do with it. could be a small company /big company /rich/poor/ new or old. The fact FordPass works as well as it does for free while everyone else charges for something similar is great. they lose $5b a year supposedly on us EV gang so it would be easy for...
Ford has its issues but I’ll give a “pass” - no pun intended - every time for FordPass as long as it’s free. It’s probably one of the better apps and they dont charge for it. Try owning a GM or Ram product for a few weeks and I’m sure you will appreciate it more
Ford-thank you for continuing...
Most ford customers aren’t ev owners/and /or don’t have the charging infrastructure. But some of the good dealerships that do have loaners Is a blessing to get a good loaner. Sometimes it’s good to go back to ICE so you appreciate the lightning more. That is of course if your dealer is taking...
definitely see your point. I guess where I would push back a little is someone came in and already cut out a part of the companies profit (the used tires ) then is asking me if I can do better on a price…. Might irk me a bit and make me want to be short with someone.
I’m not sure of your age ...
As someone who owns a company, while I try to be very polite and professional with customers such as yourself , $220 is perfectly fine and if that shop walks away with $25 profit off you I will be suprised.
Techs are making $40 an hour plus benefits / machines/tech to balance and install are...
thanks!
I did a 2” level with 285/50/r22 Toyo at3.
They are about 5 pounds lighter then the other tires In that size and ride well
coming from a 23’ lariat with a 2” level and 34.5’ that were 5 pounds heavier I do see a little difference for the better in range.
Could be the fake door that came on 22/23’s but correct me if I’m wrong fleet can order them with dual chargers starting in 24? At least that is what the ford pro website option showed.
Try disconnecting your 12v battery first. Wait about 30 sec and reconnect and see if that fixes before dealer time.
Sometimes programs just get stuck in outer space
And they just need to be reset.
