Ditto!!
Great to see everyone and had a blast at the expo. But they wouldn’t let me test drive the personal aerial vehicle:😤

Saw that thing flying on a video Kyle Conner did on his Out of Spec YouTube channel. It worth the watch. That thing is awesome and the newest version which is to be delivered 1st quarter,2026 is only $190,000. and requires NO pilot license.

Good to see @GDN and @Scorpio3d again and meet @Jesse-Infotainment, @ZSC100 and others. Thanks @Ford Motor Company for the free parking, EE tickets and merch!
Likewise. Thanks @Ford Motor Company for hosting. Good to see that many Lightning's (and Mach E's) in one place. Good to see a few again and welcome @TrojanThor to the crowd with the new Flash.

@Jesse-Infotainment and @ZSC100 (with project loaded up in the back) good to meet you and the brains behind some of the advanced projects.

Yeah, I talked to the guy for quite a long time. Pretty interesting each prop has its own motor and battery. It takes off by kind of rocking back and going straight up more or less, and it has an emergency parachute that pops out of the front so it lands kind of how it takes off! Range was either 25 or 50 miles. If anyone wants to donate $190 K I am accepting donations😂🤣😂

Thought I had copied a link to the vid, but only got the thumbnail.

I’ve fixed it. Check it out. The takeoff and landing is bazaar for sure. It’s computer controlled.

I did not notice it when we were at the booth, (I stopped back by there on the way out to grab a bottle of water) and saw the Lightning behind the STX was powering the whole Ford booth! If you zoom in on the picture, you can see that it says booth powered by F150 Lightning on the awning above the TVs.

Yeah they were powering the food booth at the Cars and Coffee off that White Tri Coat Platinum. Not as much a load but still awesome to not a have a generator in the background constantly buzzing.

That was another reason I went to regroup on the Lightning.. I wanted the 9.6 versus the 2.4.. I dont necessarily need it but I want to have it if I ever di
