  1. Ford and Class Action Lawsuit regarding downgrading Lightning

    I haven't noticed any reduction in performance and still feel the full pull of the truck. Although, I have noticed with grand entrance of winter, that the reduction in available power seems to be more aggressive than last winter. Truck has consistently dipped to 86%-90% already this winter...
  2. Complete Camera Failure

    Says the guy who has a photo of his truck backed into a spot...haha
  3. Favorite winter tires?

    No recommendations for tires....but just got into the truck after it was parked outside...power reduced to 95%...winter is coming....last winter we just rocked the OEM Goodyear Wranglers and they were solid on the snow and ice (in town). Put Blizzaks on our other vehicle (interstate driver in...
  4. Recall king = Repair cost after warranty?

    I used my Ford points earned from purchase of Lightning towards the extended warranty.
  5. Recall king = Repair cost after warranty?

    The Lightning is my first Ford...it's also the first extended warranty I have purchased...because of Ford's "reliability".
  6. Ford CEO expects EV sales to be cut in half after US tax credits end today

    One man who, as it would be, is the head of an automotive company...but this one man also thought EV adoption would be far greater...also a man in a month (if sales only drop, to say, 8%) that can come out and say "EV's are proving to be more resilient and didn't drop nearly as much as we...
  7. My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

    There is talk of a major data center coming to Montana that would require the equivalent of one million homes...the total population of Montana is around 1.1 million...residents and businesses are not charged the same rate for electricity...businesses receive a lower rate. If the past provides...
  8. BlueOval SK workers looking to unionize

    Not much nuance there...I have no clue about the auto industry, but I have worked for several corporate retail companies at different levels throughout my life. In my younger years I worked for Safeway and they constantly talked about "let us know if anyone speaks of unionizing". Pay was minimum...
  9. My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

    We have net metering up in Montana which is an incredible deal...it's also why the utility that (largely) has a monopoly in Montana goes after it every year or two...luckily (at least as currently written) if it ever changes from net metering, the folk who started on net metering are...
  10. Problems with both brake lights

    I'll be watching this thread...to see if it turns into another squabble about when/if/how brake lights operate in different modes...
  11. My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

    Are your responses in red? If so, tell me you have no clue about solar without saying, "I have no clue about solar"...
  12. Newbie - about how long will it take to start getting updates?

    I have found I receive updates on the full moon, new moon, waxing crescent, waning Gibbous, when the wind blows above 17 mph and below 10 mph...sorry, completely unhelpful...One thing I have found, is I typically receive an update about a month after someone on here starts a thread about a new...
  13. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    What about acceleration in the opposite direction?
  14. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    I'm just hoping there aren't any physics professors around...because this thread would get real heated with the term "deceleration" being thrown around...
  15. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    But touching brake pedal in two pedal mode also doesn't mean brakes applied...thus the brake coach informing you % returned.
  16. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    Some members put their truck in different modes and pulled the data on how each mode provided different charging rates with regenerative braking.
  17. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    Several other members have shown that 1 pedal does not result in physical breaking...they did this by sharing "charging" data for 2 pedal vs 1 pedal...clearly Ford built the truck so taillights will illuminate instantly in 1 pedal...my guess would be due to 1 pedal regen "braking" far more...
  18. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    You say potato I say patato....we can both hold onto our own realities....(heavy does of sarcasm)...🐻👈....
  19. Introductions & Welcome Thread 👋

    I live in Billings...we use the Lightning for road trips from April - October primarily traveling to Missoula (my immediate family lives there)...traveling that direction the Billings - Bozeman gap is only "concern"...although there is no concern April - October. Range loss in winter is a very...
  20. The Speculative Future of EVs?

    You don't necessarily need charging in 15 minutes or less on any street corner...you need charging 15 minutes or less at a sufficient number of interstate/highway stops for EV's to go mainstream.
