  1. Fitcamx dash cam review

    Ditto to what MountainAlive said. I have had my FitCamX for a couple years now, and it actually came in handy when a college age driver decided to use my front fender to perform a pit manuever on his vehicle. I showed the cop the video, and the other dude got the ticket. Also sent the video...
  2. Edmunds 3 year Lightning review

    I just learned that you can partially close the tailgate and it will finish the job (see video at timestamp 3:08). I have always just reached underneath and hit the button. How have I never figured this out in 3+ years? :confused: I actually went out to the truck and made sure it worked...
  3. Interior needs some help

    Got the same problem as OP, but mine is definitely attributed to sweat. I play basketball a couple times a week and drive either to work or home prior to grabbing a shower. A warm day for the truck in the sun after a couple games brings out the odor. A couple baking sodas under the seat...
  4. Eibach 2.1" level, 275/65R20 tires, Fuel Rebar +20 wheels

    So this is a small sample size, but 1100 miles in, I am getting the same 2.3 miles/kW that I always have. What is worth noting however, is that I never recalibrated my speedometer, as it is only off by a couple of mph at 70 mph, so hasn't been worth the hassle/cost. Given the data in my...
  5. Eibach 2.1" level, 275/65R20 tires, Fuel Rebar +20 wheels

    I am heading down the same path as the original poster. I have installed the Eibachs to the same 2.1" on the front only. That change alone had no discernable impact on range, as my average was 2.3 miles/kW on stock, and remained 2.3 miles/kW after the lift. I drove 20k+ miles stock, 9k+ miles...
  6. After the last update (window / door update) I noticed my doors locking on their own.

    That was probably you just hitting the door handle sensor to lock with a wet sponge. I've activated the locks several times with this, especially if you are using warm water, although water straight out of the hose can do it too. My truck is constantly locking and unlocking when I wash it in...
  7. BLUE CRUISE 1 YEAR EXTENSION FOR FREE IS BACK! CHECK YOUR FORD APP. DID MINE THIS MORNING

    I got it now on my 2023 Lariat. Thanks to the forum! New expiration of 3/03/2027. Did require me to update my credit card info, as the old card on file was expired, even though the fee was $0.00. It wouldn't let me pay with fordpass points, I tried that. Bet its an auto renew. Just set...
  8. Level kit installed - better range?

    Checking back in... at 5k miles the average per trip 2 is now back to 2.3 miles/kW, which is exactly what I was averaging in the 8k miles prior to installing the "level". So the Eibach's installed in the front only at a height of 2" have had no noticeable impact on range in general. I will...
  9. Tesla NACS Adapter Recall / Replacement Notice (10/24/24)

    So, weird thing here. I received a replacement adapter. It was the old (smaller) Tesla style. Took it, used the supplied packaging and sent the original back. Then back on January 23th, I got another replacement adapter, this the bigger Lectron version. Here is a pic of the two replacements...
  10. What’s your exit plan for the truck?

    Going to drive mine for at least a decade God willing, then "convert" it at truck retirement to a mobile backup battery. The 131kW battery in the Lightning is the equivalent to 10 Tesla PowerWall+'s. Even if it loses 20% of capacity, it would still be 8 of them. Those things are about 10k...
  11. Level kit installed - better range?

    Yeah sorry I haven’t reported in lately. Got in a fender bender where some college dude tried to force his way into my lane and effectively performed a pit maneuver on himself using the front of my truck. Totaled his accord, minor damage on the front on the Lightning. Cracked the headlight...
  12. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    Want to give credit where it is due, so this goes to @Hamtech. With the truck on, hold the Volume down and advance button (arrow pointing right) at the same time on the steering wheel until sync reboots. This is handy when for whatever reason your Apple carplay connects, but no sound is...
  13. Tesla NACS Adapter Recall / Replacement Notice (10/24/24)

    Today I received the following email: I went back and checked my past emails, and this one matched format close enough (although the phone number "for further information" was different) that I clicked the embedded links within the email. It took me to a website that auto populated with my...
  14. Level kit installed - better range?

    I'll try to take some pics. I did raise the front, but I didn't touch the back (like cowtown). Only installed 2 in the front so it's more level. Just installing the front also fixed the floatiness.
  15. Level kit installed - better range?

    Installed them about a month ago, on Sept 20th. I did have them installed. I didn't want to deal with compressing the spring. These shocks were only installed in the front. Eibach shocks cost $278, Install was $300, alignment was $120.
  16. Level kit installed - better range?

    So, I driven about 1200 miles on the Eibach shock level, part # E60-35-061-01-10, and I got to say so far so good. I set them at 2" of lift, which leaves about 1/2" of rake. You can set them so they raise the front up to 2.5", but I kept under the maximum setting with hopes of softening up the...

  18. Help: Can't Decide - Tire Replacements

    That's right, only the level, no new shoes yet. I've got 22k on the OEM tires, hope to get to 25k. I live in Georgia, so it's not like I need to get them switched out quickly to beat the winter snows ? As far as cost, I paid $278 for the shocks directly from Eibach, with free shipping from...
  19. Help: Can't Decide - Tire Replacements

    I did a bit of research and had settled on the Toyo Open country A/T III EV's, but put on a level kit and wanted to see how that impacted range for a few thousand miles prior to swapping out the tires. Interestingly enough, so far (1,000 miles in) the Eibach level kit (part #E60-035-61-01-10)...
  20. How to hard [Reset/Reboot] Sync system?

    This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for posting the question and specifically thanks @Hamtech for the concise answer. I have a problem where everything turns on and carplay connects, but for whatever reason no sound will come through the speakers occasionally. This includes music...
