  1. Greetings from the heart of Europe... Czech Republic

    Welcome.!!! I am surprised the Lightning made it that far in Europe. Not long ago we were talking to a lad from Queensland Australia who had the chance to get his hands on a Lightning. Put that beast to work. Won’t mind it at all. I see that you caravaning also. Enjoy the camper trips, but...
  2. 25SB6/25V731 Rear Lightbar Inspection

    My guess and your guess could be correct. This started from the factory and it continues to present. I believe engineering is looking into this because it is a high rate replacement part. These light bars are expensive.
  3. 25SB6/25V731 Rear Lightbar Inspection

    I am on my third replacement light bar. Since the factory installed light bar failed after a prolonged raining event, I scheduled an appointment with the dealer to replace it. Had to wait 3 days for the part to come in. Those were the days when all parts were dedicated to production. The second...
  4. Lightning Charged to 345 miles and 100%.

    I know it may sound like a broken record but the fully charged number for my 3+ Lightning is getting higher and the number haven’t changed even under load, pulling a 5000lbs travel trailer.
  5. Wasn't expecting to have to use Pro Power Onboard so soon but....

    This truck’s Power on Board saved our butts and everything perishable in our fridges and freezers during hurricane Helene, a year ago. My storage batteries run low because the getaway module malfunctioned. The truck picked up the mess and saved us from total darkness. This is the best money I...
  6. Santa got a new sleigh

    Is that in NC????
  7. My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

    You are correct on that. Building a power plant has to meet a constant power output. That is how it can run more efficiently. When all generators are running at peak efficiency. If the data center doesn’t draw the power then someone else has to take the excess. Running power plants at 50%...
  8. Battery Preconditioning how does it work?

    No, it will not be harmful to your battery. Yes, plug your truck every night and set a schedule for departure even though you going nowhere. You do this thru the FordPass app. You can control the preconditioning thru your app anytime of the day to keep your battery warm on cold nights or...
  9. My home electric bill has basically doubled in the past 4 months! WTF is going on?

    I have done the same. In anticipation of my Mach E and then my Lightning I have solar to contribute a lot. My bill in the summer time is around $150. Given the amount of kilowatts I consume to charge two EVs, I am doing very well. For instance, every month I consume on the average about 1 MW...
  10. Santa got a new sleigh

    Enjoy your new sleigh. It can haul all the toys you can imagine.
  11. Walk Away Lock is Rolling Out to 2022-2023 F-150 Lightning

    Got that update some time ago, more than a month or two ago. It works. A bit annoying at first because I lock my truck anyways, but it is another reminder that the truck is locked.
  12. 80A Charging Cable Under Garage Door

    No problem with running your cable under the garage door. Both my wall boxes reside inside the garage next to the door. Both my Mach E and Lightning are charged outside all year round.
  13. Asking from personal experience towing a 3000lbs teardrop camper.

    I have been looking at a teardrop camper to tow with my Lightning on long distance trips across the country. My existing trailer camper weighs around 4500lbs. The best I can do is 1.1 to 1.2 mpkw at 60mph, 70deg weather and relatively flat terrain. The teardrop I am interested in is T@b 400...
  14. Electrified Overlanding

    Greenville SC. In 30 minutes I find myself in the Blue Ridge Escarpment and within one hour in the Panther town, Cashiers area. Asheville is 52 miles away from my home. We have relatives in the Asheville area which we take advantage of visiting and enjoying the local breweries. Hiking and...
  15. Thanks Ford for the improved hands-on-wheel detection; Advanced Driver Assistance System update (24-PU0105-CMR-FX)

    Agreed. Just finished my Labor Day trip to Pamlico Sound/Oriental NC, going to using the southern route and returning to my home using the northern route. Yes…I noticed it a lot. BC/Hands free felt more refined and engaging with me during this trip. Made the 9 hour drive more comfortable...
  16. Electrified Overlanding

    Same setup with mine. Living close to the the Blue Ridge Mountains. A lot more trees than in Utah but the same concept. Primitive camping has been so good with my Lightning.
  17. Connected Navigation Expired.

    $80 per year. You can update with reward points from your FordPass account.
  18. Why was Charger capacity reduced ?

    Do you have a place to go when the Volcano blows.?????
  19. Why was Charger capacity reduced ?

    Agree with what you said. Ford knows when you use the 80amp Pro charger. I remember in August of 2022 when I requested from SunRun to give me my Pro charger that they held in a warehouse in California. It was Ford’s idea to generate business for SunRun. Anyways, since I had purchased the first...
