  1. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

    Hey ! Stainless steel scrap is premium !
  2. Charging While Driving Works w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extending for F-150 Lightning)

    Inefficient because generators are wickedly expensive to run. I did some math on this when I got my truck, I called it a hillbilly hybrid, I guess if range at any cost is a thing ... Stop at a fast charger and have Lobster instead of cheap burger 🦞
  3. Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

    Well I bagged about 7000 pounds of stone and hauled it over a mountain to my home. Topped up charge before loading, range estimate settled in around 150% of my distance, easy peasy, and then just before the ascent it dropped ~ 1/3 of that due to 'outside temperature' o_O . I knew it was cool...
  4. Show your “doing truck things” battle scars 😬!

    Love this but I just can't participate and document on the never forgetting internet that I might have ever had a lapse of judgement that resulted in sliding backwards on an icy hill until jackknifed ...
  5. Heat pump AC not cool

    Work order unknown at this time, as the beast put up a fight at the end, involving multiple attempts at some reset/setup sequence that apparently repeatedly ending up asking to start at point A again. It was after closing when they said "you wanna go and we'll do paperwork by email" and I said...
  6. Heat pump AC not cool

    Well after a long session today I have AC again. I guess the good (?) news is they haven't seen anything like this nor had the techs that the techs get support from, so it seems unlikely to be an endemic issue ?
  7. Well This Can’t Be Good. FORD FIRES 350 in Software Group

    ChatGPT ... spin me up a precondition button please ... how effing hard can it be ?
  8. Lightning retakes EV pickup sales crown from Cybertruck (for both March and Q1 2025)

    Dig into history ... and you'll find the OG nazi Adolf Hitler had a portrait of Henry Ford on the wall o_O More relevantly the Lightning IS a truck, not a novelty.
  9. Active Air Dam defeated by tire carcass...

    I am REAAAAALLLLLLLY curious as I have been pondering extending mine to compensate for perceived range loss when I lifted my truck
  10. Heat pump AC not cool

    I don't have forscan, unfortunately. Spent a few hours at the dealer yesterday, new sensor installed, no fix. They are now ordering a new compressor. Frightening comment from service advisor that they only had pinouts from a gasser to work with and they don't match, uhmmm, yah, yikes.
  11. Heat pump AC not cool

    Anybody else experience a lack of cooling ? I have a '24 Flash with heat pump and it is not pumping out cool this year, last year when I got the truck it worked, I seemed to have heat in the winter. Dealer had their heads under the hood for a few hours, says fluids fine, got an appointment to...
  12. Electric Vehicle Range Extender Generator

    How many MPK (miles per keg) you get with that rig ? Too many pee stops for time efficiency I'm sure ...
  13. Electric Vehicle Range Extender Generator

    Sorry if I burst anybody's bubble but solar range extension is pure fantasy, here is a pic of half of my 3.2kw array being installed, the drag, the weight, the reduction in power when not faced at 90° to the sun, combined make this a lose lose proposition. Can you make a glorified bicycle in a...
  14. Tail light deformation?

    Damnnn bro, I hope you're a cancer doctor, I think you are looking wayyyy too close
  15. DATA THREAD: Post your tow and efficiency!

    It is warm and the speeds were low, YMMV !

    120 kilometers on 54.45 kwh at 95kph, or for those of you living in the past ? 59 mph, 1.38mi/kwh 3600 pounds of trailer and 'payload' , net elevation gain of zero (round trip) with ~600 meters or 1800 feet of climb and descent
