When I owned both a lightning & a model x, the lightning became my daily driver. It’s a very competent machine, plenty of interior space & very secure footing. The model x had a number of eccentricities that detracted from its engineering - best example is convincing the falcon wing doors to...

remove it dear liza, dear liza! It's nicely designed that it covers the button to lower the shifter and one has to remove the cubby to access the button!

Yes - holds quarters for the WV turnpike!

Thanks for posting this. It was a dynamic presentation and very informative. The main speaker voices caution about the success of Ford & Chevy in the inevitable EV world!

Having participated in several vehicle forums, there seems to be a bias towards posting negative comments. I love the lightning ('22 Lariat model that was a demo model that I bought last year) and find it smooth, fast and reliable as my daily driver (42 miles r/t to work). I leave my 2020 Tesla...

I hit a small deer which busted the shutter assembly and with a $1000 deductible, decided to replace myself. Though I made the repair more complicated than it needed, it basically involves the primary step needed to replace the air dam - removing the front bumper assembly; you cannot access the...

Thanks for everyone's help. It was easy to find the part that I need once informed that it is a "shutter" assembly and not referred to as "baffles". Now just need to learn how to remove the front bumper without injury to all the various components that are contained in the front bumper area.

The bad news is that I hit a deer though I guess the good news is that it was a youthful 2-point buck. I've decided to do the repair myself ($1,000 deductible insurance). There are four baffles that open & close leading to the radiator. The baffles were dislodged but intact but the plastic...

I'm presuming that I'm up to date on software updates - I've got automatic updates turned on. My '22 truck was a demo model with a manufacturing date of April 2022; it had only 600 miles on it when purchased in Nov 2023. Maybe this very early lightning model wasn't equipped with ability for dash...

I previously posted that I always drive in sport mode though on my '22 Lariat edition, I find no change in the screen color. No changes except for the "S" that shows up on the screen. I do wish that I could make sport mode the default & this is the first time I've read EPA testing mandated that...

...from a previous post of mine - Purpose of the bottom cover of the CCS1 receiver The Ford Charge Station Pro utilizes a CCS1 Charge Cord connector but the bottom part of the receiver on the truck has a separate cover. as pictured below. My routine in the morning is to be carrying my briefcase...

The oversteer was the singular gripe I had with my '22 Lightning (other than the two-pin cover on the charge port) but I have found that keeping it in sport mode greatly reduces the oversteer. Now my gripe is that I can't keep it in sport mode perpetually and need to reconfirm keeping it in...

My core question was why have two covers on the charging port - the smaller cover over the two pins seems redundant; moreover, not very effective! My facetiousness (complaining about losing 10 seconds/day) got lost in the discussion but I remain unclear about the need for the smaller cover. I...

Forum readers - my math was incorrect. My apologies! 50 weeks x 5days/week x 10 seconds/day = 2500 seconds/year = 41.66 minutes per year. Despite the hyperbole, the question remains whether the bottom cover is necessary!!

The Ford Charge Station Pro utilizes a CCS1 Charge Cord connector but the bottom part of the receiver on the truck has a separate cover. as pictured below. My routine in the morning is to be carrying my briefcase and a cup of coffee, making it a challenge to close the bottom cover before closing...

...got a good chuckle out of that - thanks
