  1. Dangerous B&O sound system issue

    Happy to report that I still have not had the issue. I have noticed a few odd instances when my CarPlay audio will distort for a fraction of a second, but it has always resolved itself. Tough to tell whether this is due to the B&O system or just Bluetooth weirdness. Still, I’m keeping hearing...
  2. Dangerous B&O sound system issue

    Hi @TaxmanHog - I just reread your comment - you mentioned a solution is in the works. Did someone from Ford contact you? Did you read something about the problem elsewhere?
  3. Dangerous B&O sound system issue

    Any updates here @Ford Motor Company ? I have been too scared to drive my truck with kids in it for fear of this issue occurring, so I’ve been using my Tesla as a daily driver. If this happened with my little ones in it, they would never want to get into the Lightning again. I would much prefer...

    @TaxmanHog thank you for the ping on this thread. You are the man. ✊
  5. Ham / Amateur radio & digital radio communications - Lightning transceiver project & questions

    I came across a thread on another forum where someone recommended the Tram 1191 VHF/UHF glass mount antenna: https://www.[banned site]/threads/12v-connection-point-for-cb-or-shortwave-radio.1991/ I decided to give it a try and it works! Using a 5W handheld I was able to transmit an APRS...
  6. âś… 8/8 Lightning Build Week Group

    I picked up my Lightning today. Needless to say, it is awesome. I haven't had much time to drive it yet, but I wanted to provide some details other people may be interested in: I ordered the Platinum trim. The only Platinum feature omission on the window sticker was the "multicontour seat...
  7. Ham / Amateur radio & digital radio communications - Lightning transceiver project & questions

    The FT-818 is a fun transceiver, but it’s pretty dated from a receive quality, power consumption, and features standpoint. It’s worth noting that the stock internal battery will only run the radio at 2.5W. There’s an aftermarket lithium ion replacement which will run it at the full 6W, but...
  8. âś… 8/8 Lightning Build Week Group

    August 25th. I received the “final inspections” email on the 24th, the tracker updated to “shipped“ on the 25th,” and I received the ”shipped” email early on the 26th. Edit: To add a couple other points, I have the spray-in bedliner, and the initial estimated delivery dates were September...
  9. âś… 8/8 Lightning Build Week Group

    Received a call from my dealer that the truck has arrived! I plan on picking it up tomorrow morning, as I have to work the rest of today. I will post another update once it’s in hand!

    My order has also changed to the "Built" state with an estimated delivery of 9/10 through 9/16.

  12. Aftermarket power hookups (i.e. for ham radio)

    It was surprisingly simple. The wire harness to the brake light runs up through a hole, which leads right up above the headliner. After feeding the wires through the hole, it was easy to feel them along the back side of the headliner, fish them through the edge, then guide them to the edge of...
  13. Aftermarket power hookups (i.e. for ham radio)

    On my F-350, I have a Bullet Proof Diesel 3rd brake light dual antenna mount, and I absolutely love it: It's pricey but it's super cool. The antenna wires enter the cab above the headliner and are easily routed. I've since moved the CB antenna to a stake hole on the bed to get a better ground...

  17. Here's a great review of the Lightning

    You weren't kidding - great photos of components "under the hood," suspension, and frame. This is awesome. Thank you!
