I have heard nothing from Granger for a few weeks despite a few emails. The person I was assigned to was ill. I spoke with Hunter Talbot who says Granger has only 2 Lightnings allocated to them. They had 1 of them go in Wave 1. I'm now in desperation mode to switch dealers in the faint hope...

This screen shot is from the Live Stream going on currently. This is great news for everyone!

On page 9 of the playbook, it indicates that the Lariat has Max Tow Package, Phone As Key and Blue Cruise as Available options. However, I only see the Max Tow Package as an option when I build the Lariat ER. Is Phone As Key and Blue Cruise standard on the Lariat? I don't see them as standard...

Tom Moloughney with InsiderEVs will be talking to Ford about the Lightning's Intelligent Back Up. He invites everyone to tweet questions you want answered. (19) Tom Moloughney on Twitter: "Thanks for all the positive comments on my @Ford F-150 charging deep dive video. I've even heard from...

I am currently #45 at my dealer and I don't have hope of getting to order a MY22 Lightning. Frustratingly, my dealer will not tell me how many Lightnings they have been allocated. I'm trying to figure out how to improve my chance of getting to order my desired trim. Admittedly it is...

The reason why I initially made my Lightning reservation is due to the F150's ability for emergency home back up. Until today, I thought Ford was the only company providing this useful feature. I just read that at CES, Wallbox announced the Quasar 2 that enables any EV with bidirectional...

Is anyone else upset that the price difference on the build tool for the XLT SR to the ER is a whopping $19,500? The pricing appears to be pretty close to the survey other than the XLT ER. The survey had it at $59,974, not $72,474. Why would anyone get a XLT ER for $72,474 when they can get...

A F150 Lightning Facebook group alleges that Ford is going to favor certain states, like California, for early delivery of the Lightning. I know Toyota did this with the Rav4 Prime. Only California, Washington and Oregon could get the Rav4 Prime in the Western U.S. until relatively recently...

Reuters posted an article about ABB launching the fastest chargers yet. "The device can charge up to four vehicles at once, and can fully charge any electric car within 15 minutes." ABB launches world's fastest charger to plug into surging e-car market | Reuters "ABB's Terra 360, which can...

Darren Palmer promised some upcoming announcements from Ford in the next few weeks. I suspect the following article is one of those announcements. That being the 2022 MME is getting more useable capacity and about 10 more miles of range in their batteries. 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E comes with...

I read in interesting article with an interview of Ford's CEO Jim Farley. It is an interesting article for many reasons, but the eye catching item in my opinion is that it reads, "He [Jim Farley] said a key issue is how production will impact labor concerns since it costs 30% less to...

Terravis – by Worksport (goterravis.com) Terravis opened their reservation system for their solar cover. I figured for $50, I would make a refundable deposit. However, when I select the vehicle, I only see a 2021 F150 5'6" bed as the closest option to the Lightning. My question is do you...

My son just asked me an interesting question. He asked if the Lightning will have a dog mode like the Tesla. Has anyone heard? Cool feature!

I'm testing a theory here. It seems that not everyone received the email I have attached on August 5th. I wonder if only those with early reservations, meaning within the first 12 hours from the event, received this email. I checked and received this email too. Did everyone receive this...

I'm attending the Phoenix Lighting Tour tomorrow night. I appreciated others who attended the prior Lightning Tour events and getting us some answers. Let me return the favor. What questions may I ask for you tomorrow night? Here is a list of questions I have seen on the forum lately: Are...

The Lightning will be my first EV. It appears EVs are generally more expensive to insure. I came across Ford Insure. It seems innovative in that it uses the driving data to let Nationwide know your driving habits and thereby reduce your cost of insurance. From what I gather, after the initial...

Someone asked what was behind the panel in the frunk on a different thread. I realized that some of you may not have seen this super comprehensive video about the truck. He gets under the truck and opens almost everything possible. (At 2:16 you can see what is behind the panel in the frunk.)...

First, I apologize if this is old news everyone is aware of. I just came across it. My biggest concern about purchasing the F-150 Lightning over an ICE truck is the suspected heavily diminished range. My wife wants a RV trailer for camping. Here is an interesting article about a company that...

I was curious about the new plant Ford is building (or built) to build the 2022 F-150 Lightning. I found this interesting interview of Kumar Galhotra, Ford’s president of the Americas and international markets, describing the new plant and the unique way the truck will be built. (46) Ford...
