Now we just need a 400+ mile max pack option on the higher trims to compete with Rivian and GM

It’s absolutely crazy to me that Ford corporate allows dealer policies like refusing service to certain models that Ford sells, or only servicing cars they sold. One of the few remaining advantages Ford has over newer competitors is a comprehensive brick and mortar repair network, and certain...

You can get an OBDII scanner and read HV battery SOH. Seems most people just get wireless ones with bluetooth connections to their phone for casual use. I think vLinker and OBDLink are popular on amazon. I've had good success with the OBDLink MX+.

Any update to what was wrong with the truck? A family member with a 2024 is experiencing similar issues with the fan not turning on....

At this rate wouldn't be surprising if Ford makes the financial decision to drop the Lightning from its lineup. Doesn't seem to sell in the volume to be profitable. I think the only thing that will save it will be Ford keeping it around symbolically to not cede a subset of the full size truck...

The larger 22" wheels are one of the main components responsible for the Platinums 300 mile range vs the Lariats 320 mile range. There also might be a very slight difference due to the Platinums higher curb weight, but should have a much smaller effect. Besides looks, people also go smaller on...

I just serviced the brakes (lubricated the slide pins and replaced a few clips) on my Tesla Model 3 brakes that have 100,000 miles - the pads still measure 9.8 out of 10MM thickness. I fully expect them to last the life of the vehicle unless there is some sort of calendar age related condition...

I have a Lariat ER in South Florida….the ventilated seats are worth it and I’d choose one again. Especially if I had to commute 100 miles each day and had that much time to enjoy the comforts of a higher trim. The FPL program is awesome. They install a Wallbox charger and it charges at 40...

Million dollar highway in Colorado

I’m guessing they didn’t share any specs on the truck since it’s still too far out from release to know for sure what final pricing will be. When Tesla went all in on similar things like large castings and reduced wiring techniques with the Cybertruck, one of the big points that brought a lot...

Just hit my truck - 23 Lariat ER - no EAP - had to go to the software update menu and it popped up after a few minutes

Now they just need to integrate Tesla/EA charging subscriptions into the BlueOval network. Until then plug and charge will remain turned off for the foreseeable future.

Doesn’t sound like you’ll sell, which is awesome. Looking forward to a 200,000+ report. I think a lot of people started warming up to EVs once they hear real stories of longevity and reliability

While there’s no denying that 460 miles of range is ludicrous for the daily commute, I do see why GM offers this range option and I really hope Ford comes out with something to compete with it. A couple examples that come to mind are… - Interstate road tripping in winter weather. A combination...

Has anyone confirmed with a dealer whether this omission is intentional or not?

Coolant Low - is a tough call without knowing the history, it could be over several years you lost a few ounces to evaporation which is an easy top off. Or there is a small undiscovered leak somewhere. I would carefully top it off to the max line and check right before the 3 year warranty...

Just checking to make sure nobody on the forum wants to get rid of a Mongoose cable before I pull the trigger on a new one...

If I do the IPMA and other modules myself, will the front camera CSP in FordPass go away? Or is reporting that complete a dealer function?

6-50s are great for EV charging. We use them in our garage to charge our vehicles and saved a good amount of money in wiring vs going with a 14-50 plug.

My app wouldn’t display any charging after the update either. Checked about 4 hours later and it was magically back. I’m not sure why but it seems to be ok now
