Hello everyone!

Just recently purchased a F-150 Lightning XLT with equipment group 312A here in Australia, awaiting delivery.. Have been reading the forums to see what mods and accessories everyone has been doing to theirs, looking forward to doing some of them to mine..

Was a long time member on a few Forums for Jeep GC modifications and uConnect mods, so will hopefully add my expertise in those departments to the Lightning!

Hello All,

I have been lurking since this site was built. I've learned many things from you all and appreciate all of the insight on being a Lightning owner and hope that I can contribute. I have some questions about things that I'll create separate threads on but, I am very proud to now be a member and an owner. I couldn't be happier in my 2 days of ownership.

Welcome!

Thanks. She is for now and I'm working on what to call her. I'll see what I can come up with.

I was going to go with Raven, which I think works well for a black truck... but my friend named his daughter that, so I felt like I couldnt go there.

I also entertained Lilith. Also a dark woman's name. Supposedly the first witch, depending on who's historic interpretation you read.

End the end, I chose Luna for mine.

Let us know what ya choose!

2025 Lariat April Space White

Very nice. I was going to get that color. Great choice!

Hi hello. I'm an off grid solar installer who lives off grid and has underutilized summer solar at the same time as my busy season. I'm really looking forward to getting into a lightning to stop giving my money to the oil companies, have a fun opportunity to show off what can happen with solar, and get to enjoy driving these really fun trucks.

Just joined the community and very happy to see all the great forums celebrating and supporting the F150 Lightning. I own a 2024 Flash model. I have already made the following mods. Activated matrix headlights and installed the dial shifter. Right now I am working on getting my comma.ai working. So far every time i connect the long USB cable to the Q4 harness i throw a lot of codes. One pedal, cruise, drive mode, A/C, etc. They do not clear up like others have said. I have put in my order for the new USB module and will see how that works. Love the Lightning and do not see going back to an ice anytime soon.

Welcome all! ?

In the spirit of creating a welcoming and friendly environment, please introduce yourself and/or give a warm welcome to new members!

Hello! Last weekend I traded in my 2021 Ford MME GT Performance edition for a 2025 F-150 Lightning Lariat. Grew up in the midwest and drove plenty of trucks over the years. My kids had been asking to go camping and skiing more, plus with the incentives on the Lightning, it was time. Can't express how pleased I am with the Lightning, the ride is beautiful, Ford thought of nearly every need in the cab and in city driving this truck is nearly equal in efficiency mi/kwh as my Mach-E! Also, just drove down to San Diego and back today, stopped at a Tesla supercharger in San Clemente and achieved 175-184kw charge rate from 30-48% when I disconnected. Much better than the Mach-E and only 10kw below my wife's BMW iX peak rate. Pleased to be here and look forward to learning from everyone.

Hi all! I just picked up my 2025 F150 Lightning Flash last Friday and I am loving it. It's my 3rd F150 but my first electric vehicle. I do have a question. Does anyone know why I don't seem to have welcome lighting? My 23 XLT powerboost had it and I actually liked it.

Beautiful truck!

It's in the options. After Ford tech blew away my Sync system last week, I had to go back through and set up everything. I think it is under "lighting".

Thats what the on vehicle owners manual says but there isnt an option on there.

May not have been on feature on the Flash. Might check your window sticker.

From what I can find, they call it "Illuminated Entry" on the Window sticker and my truck has that. Now I am even more confused lol.
