Most of that looks like pretty standard stuff for early model Lightnings - mine was in the 2nd wave of builds and experienced much of that. The real question would be: How much are they asking for it?

Fair enough. I hope I am wrong.

Sorry, I have followed this closely before ordering one for my 2022. If you do a Google search you will see Ford has begun encrypting some 2024-25 models and that people are reporting problems with comma AI on newer model Lightnings. ALSO, if you check Comma AI's compatibility list doesn't...

It's my understanding that the 2025 Ford EVs use an encrypted data buse and aren't compatible with Comma AI. There are a number of threads and the Comma forum that reference it.

You are correct, as I learned the hard way. The box I recommended was not a good fit for the Lightning, as it constantly froze up and required frequent rebooting. I ended up with the ATOTOOUT Magic Box - AI Box... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F5QBT2NV?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share. It has worked...

I went with the @PolymerBuilt version referenced above, but I agree, yours looks nice.

From my experience in both the 22 Lightning and the 21 Mach E, I haven't notice the cold air being mixed into the flow at high fan speeds until the outside temperature is below -10 or so. That may be because the battery isn't yet requiring a large share of the heating, due to its preheating or...

Ref the two comments above, as far as I know, my 22 Lightning doesn't use a heat pump. As mentioned, heat pumps are pretty much worthless when there is no heat to pump - like at -35. Likewise LFP batteries. I wouldn't buy a vehicle with an LFP battery given the extreme winter cold here

August is typically very gray and damp here in AK. I recommend June and September if you are playing the weather odds. Of course, many of the tourist sites are closed after mid Sept. By the way, while the charging situation between the Canadian border and Fairbanks and Anchorage is currently...

This is the box I am currently using: ATOTOOUT Magic Box - AI Box CarPlay & Android Auto Wireless, 8GB+128GB Android Car Video Box with Built-in 4G/ Wi-Fi/Dual Bluetooth/USB, Built-in GPS & AI, microSD Playback, OTA, Black, CB6D It's not as a big as it looks in this image - a little less...

Yes, I had it set to 73F, but, as you can see above, the cabin never got above 70F. I've found, that to keep the windshield mostly fog free, you need to set the temp higher to ensure the warm air reaches the upper part of the windshield. I never use 'Auto' in extreme cold, or set the Fan...

It's been a bit brisk around here for the last month, so I thought I might share a little battery and temp info driving the Lightning around town during extreme conditions. The Basics: 22 Lightning Lariat, extended range battery, 12v battery replaced 15 Nov 25. Start: 0920. 60 degrees F in a...

I've had good luck with the Carlink boxes I keep in both my Lightning and Mach E. I like that you can insert a Sim in them and have a car phone number and internet hot spot separate from your cell phone. It does have the annoying habit of randome rebooting, though, so I've ordered the...

I'm not sure what problem your trucks are having - my early build 22 Lariat had it as of yesterday. I checked as soon as I saw this thread. Answering 'yes' to the "auto-add chargers" option during route selection chose only the Tesla chargers between Fairbanks and Anchorage, including one...

The Mach E has a Forscan config change that will let you set the exterior lighting default to 'off' when remote starting car/climate with the app. It works great. I haven't tried seeing if it works for the Lighting. During our extreme cold wx (-40), I just leave the truck on, turn the vehicle...

I'm curious. Do the AC power outlets in the frunk and the bed use Euro type plugs?

I'll just change my FDRS update cycle from every 6 months to every 18 months. That way Ford will lose $30 from me.

I try to avoid displaying data just because I can. There are four key data points I regularly use: Charging Speed, Coolant Heater Load, HVB battery temp, and (the Biggie that I cannot believe Ford doesn't provide anywhere) the Actual HVB kWh Remaining. The kWh remaining has been absolutely...

I had the same problem. I changed the interior air filter and filled the coolant reservoir near to the max level and it does seem the loud fan noise has decreased quite a bit.

I haven't received shipping notification for my replacement adapters yet, but FedEx app does show two return labels for both defective adapters have been prepared. Sooo close, now.
