My local commute in WI is 9-10 miles one way, with speeds below 55 (unless I decide to rip some rubber on the country roads), and most is 35 and under. Winter I get around 1.8-2.2, but summer Iām closer to 2.8-3.6, depending on conditions. Summer I can easily beat the ER range of 320, and at 90%...
A few days after purchase, I found some minor damage on the black plastic lower front grate by the air intake on mine a few days after taking delivery last year. The out-of-town dealer would not fix it even though it was noticeable in a picture taken on day of purchase. Said they had to be...
Received my NACS fast charging adaptor today. Took over 10 months since order placed in March 2024. No shipping notice. Package just showed up today. Iām super glad to finally have this!
Bought a ā23 XLT ER w/ tow tech, 9.6 pro-power and spray-in bed liner for just under $51k in March 2024. Wanted an EV and was down to Model Y and Lightning. Decided to get a truck EV for efficient local commuting, size/space and doing occasional truck things.
I donāt tow yet, but glad I got the...
I bought my first extended warranty at the Ford dealer and got ripped off big time. When I realized that I could get the same thing from Granger for less than half the cost at the dealer I immediately contacted the dealer to cancel. At the point of sale, the dealer finance department made it...
After a $23k cash + tax credit discount from MSRP, I put 75% down on my 23 XLT ER in March of this year, and did 1.9% for 36 months for the rest. Realistically, it will be completely paid off in a year or less as I donāt like debt a whole lot.
In addition I took out gap insurance. If something...
Havenāt noticed any issues while in my Lightning, but my iPhone overheats and burns through battery while on F150 Lightning Forum website. Not sure whatās going on in the background!
Our auto insurance in WI increased a crap ton in the past couple of years. Not only did my wife get a speeding ticket for going 30 in a made up 20 while putsing along in a PHEV, but we added a Lightning EV as a third car this year right before our daughter got her drivers license at 16. All in...
Back in March, I picked up an XLT ER for just under $51k with tow package, spray-in bed liner, mobile charger and all-weather floor mats. Only had to drive to Milwaukee it get it, so so charge stops in the way home. Dealer discount was $8k.
Been very happy with it so far and the extra range is...
I bought my Lightning to be a local commuter vehicle, to help with home projects and make some regional trips to state parks and various sporting events. I have nothing to tow, but I have teenagers and the large back seat is great for them!
After ~1,500 miles, the Lightning excels at local...
My 2023 driverās side left air vent is weak too. And it exhibits squeakiness in that area, which is easy to hear since the truck is so quiet.
My daughter thinks the rear driverās side air vent is weak too, but I just got the truck in March and havenāt sat back there yet with the AC on.
Thanks, I think you may be right about the specs of my unit. I do remember the Clipper Creek website claiming the unit would charge the Lightning ER at 19.2 KW which is why I chose it. 15 would be great, but it 13 seems to be working OK so far.
In a mysterious FedEx delivery attempt, I received the Ford charge station pro about two weeks after the vehicle purchase. I didn't need to complete anything, it just arrived. I already have an 80-amp Clipper Creek charge station installed in my garage, so not sure yet what I will do with the...
We purchased a white 2023 XLT ER in March for $50,990 before TTLR. It has the tow tech package, spray-in bed liner, mobile charge cord and all-weather floor mats. Dealer incentive was $8k off, pus $7,500 Ford manufacturer incentive and $7,500 tax credit, for a total of $23k off MSRP.
