  1. Road Trip Virgin No More

    Thanks! That is easy.
  2. Road Trip Virgin No More

    I did take a quick look at FordPass at the time. It wasn't obvious to me what to do. I didn't see a button telling me to "press here to begin charging." But the credit card scan was easy.
  3. Road Trip Virgin No More

    I got devirginized today (11/25/2025). My first real road trip in my 2023 F-150 Lightning Lariat SR: 167 miles from Eastgate (Cincinnati) to Findlay, Ohio. Short version: everything went better than expected. (Once again, I over-planned. But hey, I’m anal like that.) I left the house at 8:15...
  4. Stop Safely Now Exit Vehicle in a Safe Area

    That happened to me in my 2023 F150 Lightning Lariat SR while driving it. I stopped in a safe place as directed, shut it off and it was bricked. According to the Ford dealership that it got towed to, the error code indicated a cooling system leak in the battery pack causing a ground fault. It...
  5. DCFC Confused – 2023 F150 Lightning Lariat SR

    Today was my third DCFC experience. The first two were uneventful successes. So, what happened today? 24 percent SOC Plugged into same EA charger used in the past Failed after 4 minutes and 10.1 kWh Reset and restarted a new session Failed again after 2 minutes and 5.3 kWh Moved truck to...
  6. Lightning production plant being paused due to aluminum plant fire 😕

    Unless I'm missing something here, it also appears that the last 2025 models have, or are rolling off of the assembly line now. When production restarts in Q1, wouldn't it be the 2026 model?
  7. Intended use for slotted space on front console?

    I had a similar post some time ago. It's a plug for models w/o a trailer brake controller. No good answers for what to do with it.
  8. 2025 Lightning Lariat Build

    My guess is that Ford will follow the law rather than lose in court. That would be much cheaper for them. We'll see. Black letter law as well as Ohio Supreme Court case law are on my side. So, why is Ford delaying??? My guess is that they think I'll give up and accept the buy back. IDK.
  9. 2025 Lightning Lariat Build

    Interesting. Ford ghosted me, hence forcing me to sue them. In Ohio, the consumer gets to choose full buy back or new truck. I chose to take a new truck. Ford continues to refuse. We go to trial in January.
  10. 2025 Lightning Lariat Build

    Tell us more about your Lemon Law experience. Did Ford buy it back or give you a new 2025 in exchange for your lemon?
  11. First Long Trip - ABRP ? or Just Google Maps and a prayer?

    Which one and why? I need to get one too.
  12. Charger grizzl -e 40amp

    According to my 40 Amp "Smart" Grizzl-E app, my last charging session reported max power 9.15kW. That seems to be about the average of the past three sessions.
  13. Potential Pieces of Good News for EVs Assembled in the US

    Yep. I anticipate that the DMVs (Department of Motor Vehicles) will collect it when license plates get renewed. It will just be one of the many fees.
  14. Ford Employee Pricing? Other Discounts?

    As far as I can tell, Ford’s so-called “employee pricing” seems to be just another way to offer an incentive. (Nothing wrong with that.) On a Lariat, it appears to be about $6,200ish. Anybody know what the percentage is and what it’s calculated on? When I bought my 2023 Lariat SR, Ford was...
  15. Getting dropped by State Farm for several not-at-fault claims 😡 who are you using to insure your Lightning(s) and how's it working out?

    Just renewed my policy with Progressive: $985 for six months. That covers six vehicles and four drivers. My HO is with Allstate.
  16. Power outlet are timing off after 6 minutes!

    Also consider the HV battery temperature management system. I've been monitoring mine on my 2023 Lariat SR. It seems to run continuously regardless of outdoor temperature.
  17. 2025 bricked at 1000 miles {fix post 36}

    My 2023 Lariat SR bricked. Dealership kept it 32 days. Under Ohio law, that makes it a lemon.
  18. Sago - Is this legit?

    I got this from: [email protected] Subject: Ford: ALERT - Exclusive Opportunity to Share Your Thoughts Hi, We are excited to let you know that Ford Motor Company wants to hear your feedback on your vehicle and various new products. An invitation from our partner, Sago, an independent...
  19. X-Plan documents

    If a customer would be purchasing a 2024 Lightning today, is the X-Plan or "employee pricing" better than what otherwise could be negotiated?
  20. Lightning sales report for Q1 2025

    Will there be a 2026 Lightning? If so, what changes are expected?
