  1. Surging towing light trailer

    Thanks for the thought. Old age, weak back, weak mind so I forgot basics. I thought it was pretty heavy and the trailer did not sway, at least at low speeds. But next time I haul logs I think I will put a jack under the tongue to raise it and make sure it's a lot heavier than I want to lift...
  2. Surging towing light trailer

    Yup, that worked. I thought the truck would recognize that there was no trailer and change settings since it shoed me a messages that the trailer was not attached... Duh.
  3. Crazy Surging

    I created a separate surging thread since this seems focused on heavy towing while I experienced surging while towing a very light trailer. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/surging-towing-light-trailer.29765/
  4. Surging towing light trailer

    I experienced surging (back and forth pulsing) in my 2023 Lightning Lariat ER while towed a Harbor Freight 1750 lb rated trailer with two 10 Ft logs about 0-12 inches in diameter when going up 2-3 degree hills. I estimate each log was about 300+ lbs. so total loaded trailer weight was likely...
  5. Amazing mileage!

    Did you stay on dry sand or on "moist" sand? Did you wash off the underside after wards? Please keep us posted on the condition of the underside over time (rust, bearings.) I've noticed my m/k has also been going up a little on highway trips and particularly on local road trips. Yesterday I...
  6. First one to charge at the NEW Rivian Charger station at the NC Outer Banks Mall!

    Great to see the charger network growing there, but they need to spread them out a bit along the island. I wonder when WMT will get chargers.
  7. A2Z EV - CCS1 Charger to NACS Vehicle | AC | Only For Ford Pro Charger Only | The Thunderstorm Lite Plug

    The video link is not working for me. So, why do you need this? I thought Tesla cars came with a CCS1 to NACS adapter or you can get them from Tesla. Why is this special for the Ford Charger Pro?
  8. Rotary shifter possible

    Dash mount is nice, but I found these videos and Etsy link for console mounting the rotary shifter that seems a bit easier - no harness extension. 2021-2024 F150 / F150 Lightning ( EV / ICE ) Center Console Trim Removal and Disassembly (22) Replacing The Stupid F150 Lightning Shifter With A...
  9. Filing the gap between cab and bed?

    I wonder if anything you put in will not rub against the paint... unless you put double sided tape and stick it to both the cab and the bed. The part in between would need to be flexible. I'm thinking maybe cut a strip from a very heavy tarp and add tape at each long edge. Of course removing...
  10. Settings lost overnight

    Getting the front sensors update at the dealer reset several settings including speed limit automation and radio settings. Fairly often during 2024 over the air software updates my radio settings got reset, and sometimes other settings. seems to be a little better recently but software quality...
  11. Mobile Power Cord - 110/120v adapter part # (purchasable?)

    I wonder if this 110 to 50 amp adapter on Amazon would actually work. Much cheaper than the official dongle in eBay...
  12. Retractible Tonneau w/ haybales

    I went with a Lear quad fold. It still takes some space at the head of the bed but the bed camera can see over it. Some Trifolds I looked at blocked the camera. I DO NOT carry straw. BTW, the little lever to release the supports that hold the cover open vertically broke. I have to use a...
  13. NACS Adapter Estimate Shipping

    Purchased April 29, 2023. Ordered a couple weeks later. Target date (you have to keep checking the web site for adapter tracking: https://www.ford.com/myaccount/connected-services?vin= ...insert your vin... &keyName=chargeradapterstatus#/Subscriptions.ChargerAdapterStatus) was October, then...
  14. Heated steering wheel barely gets warm

    Mine also starts toasty on Pre-departure heating, then drops off... I wonder if it is tied to the cabin temp setting - I keep mine at 65. Something to experiment with next time I go for a short trip. I agree, there should be a steering wheel temp setting you can change.
  15. This will be my last attempt at a Lightning Road Trip

    I have over a dozen charging apps on my phone but ChargeFinder, PlugShare, and A Better Route Planner help the most. Before a trip, I usually check an area and route using ChargeFinder which shows stations from many providers and many levels. I then open likely locations to find charge rate and...
  16. Automatic speed adjustment for Speed Limit Sign

    I have watched mine as I went past a sign and it was almost parallel to the sign when it recognizes it and changed speed targets. Once I saw it switch speeds when I did not see a sign around, but it may have been reading something else. The target speed was correct for that road. Speed...
  17. Charging 120v Question / Issue?

    My Reported range is down from 242 in summer to 196 in 20 degree temps (at 80% target). 35 mile reported range drop going from 70 degrees to 40 degrees. Note that this is the "Estimated" range which is very questionable. My miles/kW dropped from 2.4 in summer to 1.4 in 20 degree weather...
  18. BlueCruise 1.4 Road Trip Observations

    This is also one of my complaints about Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC - which I think is what BC uses.). I wish that I could tap the brake (or even press a - button) to initiate slowing down and braking way before the truck recognizes that there is a car stopped or going very slow a few hundred...
  19. Rattle hunt - drivers side door/window

    I get a passenger side rattle when the seat belt not secured properly. Once I move the seat belt latch tongue up or down it gets cured. An open window can make the seat belt vibrate and slap against the door post.
  20. Charging 120v Question / Issue?

    I've used an extension cord on 110v to charge but the plugs, especially at the ford mobile charger, get warm. My cord is 12 Gauge. I used a regular long cord once but it was a top off and maintenance charge which have a much lower amp draw. If you don't install a L2 charger you can go with the...
