  1. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Got Any? 📸

    Helped a friend haul some mulch. There's probably close to 2 yards in there which was prooooobably over weight by a few hundred pounds. 😅 Gonna avoid that much in the future so I can keep my suspension in good shape over the years, but the truck didn't seem to mind. Will also be lining the bed...
  2. Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

    Mine arrived today as well. My order number ended in 420, is that the 3 digit number you all are referring to?
  3. Software Priority Update: 23-PU1024-6CH-AUD - Refined Audio

    Off topic but wanted to add that as a software engineer in the trade for over 13 years now I've never been asked for build notes. I'd be curious if you or anyone else had a different experience. For anyone interested, most often, we're given a task to do formulated into the phrase "As a user I...
  4. Reduce your registration cost (in PA, at least)

    Other thoughts: I have no idea if this same logic applies to commercial usage. If you buy a hummer EV or silverado EV with the giant battery pack it'll probably be classified as class 4 and registration would cost $262 annually. OOF!
  5. Reduce your registration cost (in PA, at least)

    Disclaimer: This advice is Pennsylvania specific but I'd be surprised if dropping your weight class wasn't common in other states. Short story: As long as your truck is under 7,000 lbs unladen in PA there's a good chance you can reduce your weight class rating from Class 3 to Class 2 and save a...
  6. Ford NACS Adapter Just Shipped

    I was thinking of doing this very same prank. 🤣
  7. SR towing capacity

    I saw a video where someone overheated in normal mode but they were fine after they switched to tow/haul mode -- there's probably other benefits too that I don't know about because I don't tow. I think it boosts the cooling regardless of tow package. So, make sure you're in tow/haul mode...
  8. CSP-23B70 Certain 2022-23 F-150 Lightnings - BMS Sensor Replacement

    Got this taken care of almost a month ago and still have the notice for it in the app. I remember reading it could take awhile to clear though. Just weird because my other CSPs cleared right away.
  9. Failed (OTA) Update bricked my 2023 F150L

    An inoperable vehicle due to a software update is unacceptable. Sorry that happened to you. I saw some comments about being worried that this could happen during an outing. What I do to mitigate this (somewhat) is I schedule updates only to occur at 1AM. There's just a high probability that my...
  10. Rotary shifter possible

    That's pretty cool! I wonder what happens when they press the L? I thought the shifter folding down was really cool when I saw it in an ad for the lightning. But now having it for awhile I think I've only pushed the shifter down once legitimately. Most of the time I push it down just to show...
  11. Safety Recall, 24S11, Certain '23 MY Lightnings, HVJB Bus Bar Retention Nuts

    I wonder how they're dealing with lightnings that were built during this time but had their battery packs replaced during the stop-ship last Jan/Feb?
  12. Do you guys like “creep” mode?

    I think our EV6 and the E-GMP platform does it best: adjustable regen with paddle buttons. And the left paddle you can even hold down to come to a complete stop in 1PD or 2PD. If you do that you put the car in auto hold until you tap the accelerator, but otherwise creep mode is the default in...
  13. RIP Adira Tal: My F-150 Lightning Saved Me

    Glad you're safe! Sorry about your truck. Had to be a rare blue one too. 😕
  14. NACS Adapter Now Available + Ford EV Owners Can Now Charge on Tesla Superchargers in U.S., Canada! 🙌

    Reading these posts on ordering the adapter I'm getting major déjà vu back to when we had to reserve the truck... When these start shipping out I'm convinced I'm going to see, "I ordered in the first 10 mins and my free adapter still hasn't shipped meanwhile my buddy who ordered yesterday and...
  15. Ground fault using manual transfer switch

    Ah-hah! That's the part I was missing. Man that was super helpful thanks so much for taking the time to write that out.
  16. Ground fault using manual transfer switch

    I just had a discussion with my electrician on this very thing and he said basically the same. It would work but he wouldn't do it personally. I pressed but he couldn't say why other than he couldn't even come close to endorsing it otherwise he'd be liable. I'd love to understand the reasoning...
  17. Caution using heated seats, rear heated seat fire, [Not an EV Fire]

    Man that's awful. So sorry that happened to you. Glad you and the dogs got away with minor injuries. Good luck at urgent care/vet.
  18. Range issues..... 2023 Ford Lightning Pro SR

    I have found that setting the cabin temp to 60F auto + air recirc (for as long as it'll stay on) helps out a lot with efficiency. Keeps me plenty warm on those cold days as long as I wear a jacket and gloves and use the heated seats. I never precondition (can't and my schedule is too varied...
  19. The Lightning to Lightning wave

    I accidentally opened my frunk one time while waiting for a red light. Maybe that can be the signal while stopped. 😅
