  1. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    CarScanner app with OBD adapter. OBDLink MX+ or CX.
  2. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    There are people who literally spend thousands converting lower trims to higher trims. Nowhere near the number that just do a few tweaks, but there are many. I was on an F-150 forum for 10 years, and it was shocking how much people paid to make say an XLT into a Lariat.
  3. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    So your argument is that if I can turn on say 8 features from a Platinum in my Lariat, but I can't get the different metal trim and seats, that I don't have a Platinum and therefore Ford hasn't lost any money? Umm, ok.
  4. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    You are incorrect. Yes, some features are exactly as you state, features that aren't yet available or they don't plan on turning on for older vehicles. But others are features that exist in a higher trim, so in fact they are losing money. On my 2013 F-150, I turned on remote start with key...
  5. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    Don't know why you're responding to a 6 month old post, but your argument doesn't make any sense. If I buy a Lariat, and turn on options that my truck doesn't have, but that are included in a Platinum, Ford makes no money. If I bought the Platinum with that feature, Ford got paid for it...
  6. The saga continues… I Love My F-150 Lightning. I Hate My Charge Station Pro. I Want A Refund

    What is most disturbing about HIS is that Ford is not doing everything possible to get it working for everyone that bought it. That, or making people whole, should be their top priority. Clearly they promised a solution that is imperfect, and they aren't standing behind it for all customers...
  7. 🛻 BedRug is Now Husky – Preorders for the New Guardian Comfort and Guardian Impact

    Yeah, they've bought up everybody. I bought my tonneau for the Lightning from DiamondBack. Superior quality to any of these brands, and still a small business.
  8. Hanging up my 4 decades old commute spurs.

    Actually, it is between 78 and 82. Source 1: Imagine two scenarios: You claim early and start receiving checks sooner. Each payment is smaller, but over time, the amount you receive grows. You delay your benefits. Once you start claiming them, you'll receive a larger check, and that begins...
  9. Hanging up my 4 decades old commute spurs.

    I posted the link because many collect too early, without understanding the impact of their decision. In general, waiting until one's FRA (Full Retirement Age), 67 for people not yet at that age, is usually best. Then, the higher earner waiting until age 70 usually makes sense for a couple...
  10. Hanging up my 4 decades old commute spurs.

    @hturnerfamily, visit https://opensocialsecurity.com/. Collecting at 62 often leaves money on the table.
  11. Front bumper motorized shutters function?

    Yes, they open and close as needed. No, a grill is not needed, or Ford would have put one there.
  12. Renew Ford Connected Navigation today? Why would I?

    Elmo only has one set of crayons, and is drawing as fast as he can... Wait, wut? Your Lightning doesn't precondition? It will SOON... 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 When they do add it, you don't need nav, you just use GoogleMaps with Android Auto. Works fine on my 2022 Mach-E, manufactured BEFORE THE...
  13. Pre collision assist not available.

    Think for a minute. How is it possible that BOTH your vehicles have the same error at the same time?
  14. 40,000 Service advice

    If you look in the manual (vs. Ford app), you will see some additional recommendations: Brake fluid - every 3 years Transmission fluid - 10 years or 150,000 miles Coolant is not listed, it should be checked for proper strength and topped off.
  15. Rusting around suspension anybody else

    No, the truck is not 7 tons, 14,000 pounds... The truck, empty, is just under 7,000 pounds. If you are jacking just one spot, a 2 ton jack is fine, but don't work under the truck without jack stands.
  16. Trouble buying Blue Cruise and Premium Connectivity

    Cancel both and get a refund. Buy BC for a trip, you paid for 50 months of it. Premium connectivity is next to useless.
  17. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    "They reduced the size of four cell modules, making the new 88 kWh pack 4P90S. The GTs will continue to have the existing 91 kWh 4P94S pack." https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/2025-mach-e-order-guide.41979/page-9#post-909347
  18. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    Nope. Both are NCM. SR starting mid 2023 is LFP.
  19. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    I've noticed between the Mach-E and Lightning forums a consistent fact - Lightning SOHs are considerably higher, or perfect, as compared to Mach-E SOHs. Is this because of: 1) Better battery technology on Lightnings as compared to Mach-Es? 2) Better BMS on Lightnings as compared to Mach-Es? 3)...
