  1. ? Official Info: F-150 Lightning Reservations to Order Conversion & Invitation Process. Dealer Pricing Options

    There are so many unknowns compared to when I ordered my Mustang Mach E. I have really been on the fence with this order, and if all the above is true, I may wait for a later model year with my reservation - maybe then they will allow the X plan, or have better financing.
  2. Too early to talk colors for 2022 F-150 Lightning?

    I REALLY wish they would offer the new Cactus Gray they are offering on the Bronco or the Area 51. I have been lobbying Mr. Levine on Twitter for Cactus Gray in particular.
  3. 2021 F-150 CoPilot 360 hack for completely hands free driving

    THIS. Tesla Stans have been doing this for a long time and even getting in the back seat. CoPilot 360 is NOT a self driving system. It is lane centering and adaptive cruise control. When lines get confusing my Mach E stops the lane centering. Blue Cruise will be different, and until then, I keep...
  4. What cars do you have now?

    2021 Mustang Mach E 2019 Ford Fusion Energi (which will probably be traded in for the Lightning) 2016 Ford Escape Titanium Yeah, we are a Ford family. My dad retired from Ford. Loyal to the Blue Oval.
  5. Charging prices and why

    Ohio is even more backward than TN. Vehicle registration here for a hybrid is an extra $100, any PHEV or BEV is an extra $200! We have my Mach E, and my wife drives a Fusion Energi. The Energi only goes 25 miles on a charge, but we still get an extra $200 fee for registration. Even though we...
  6. Trim Pricing For 2022 F-150 Lightning Revealed in Survey Email! [Before and After Tax Credit]

    There is a LOT to consider that would make it hard to answer a survey like this without more information. Like will X Plan be available? Will there be good lease terms, or not? Will they offer Ford Options financing like they did on the Mach E (with a rebate). What will the tax credits be, and...
  7. Good points about the F-150 Lightning

    I have a Lightning reservation. I got my Mach E in February, and have been using it as my daily driver and taking it on road trips since then. We plan on trading in our Fusion Energi for the Lightning as our second full BEV. Yes, there is more planning required for a trip, but NEVER stopping at...
  8. Placed Cybertruck order after Lightning reservation

    Ok, I agree with you with the caveat that redundant systems that destroy the utility or use ability of a device are not a good thing. Of course cost can be a factor too. I thought we all understood this did not involve any of those types of examples. So would you trust those cars operating on...
  9. Lordstown Motors CEO and CFO Resign

    They were doomed as soon as the Lightning was announced https://www.reuters.com/article/us-lordstown-motors-ceo-idCAKCN2DQ0WN
  10. Placed Cybertruck order after Lightning reservation

    Seriously? You honestly believe that bull from Elon? Ask any engineer - redundant systems are ALWAYS a good thing. Especially in safety. Taking out radar was more probably a supply and cost issue. And relying on cameras only? Do you honestly think that is a great idea if it were true? What...
  11. Ford F-150 Lightning realistic delivery dates

    You can't take this last year with COVID and the chip shortage disaster as a yardstick. I am betting on Ford to make good on getting the Lightning out in Spring/Summer 2022 to the first reservation holders. I was an early Mach E holder, and while I did not get my car in 2020 like I thought I...
  12. Digesting the 70% price gap between the XLT and Platinum Lightning.

    Believe me . . . I have had this discussion with my wife. She still reclines the seat and naps and there is nothing I can do about it and maintain any kind of harmony. However, it is good to know that even the passenger seat will not do this when in motion. Thanks for that info. It is still a...
  13. Digesting the 70% price gap between the XLT and Platinum Lightning.

    Ugh . . . just looked at the Lightning spec sheet again and found out the Max recline seats are only available on the Platinum, and even then they are an OPTION. Those were a real selling point for my wife that likes to nap a lot on road trips. The Platinum is WAY to rich for my blood. The gas...
  14. Will have access to F-150 Lightning and some Product Experts. Questions?

    The dual chargers only has an effect on L2 AC charging. Not DCFC (if that is what you are talking about regarding charge stations). The DCFC are direct DC current to the battery and do not go through the chargers.
  15. Will have access to F-150 Lightning and some Product Experts. Questions?

    And then there would be all kinds of complaints if that estimate was not met. BEV is not ICE. There are many more variables to skew any average they could come up with if they told you 20-50% loss of range what would you think? That may be realistic.
  16. Will have access to F-150 Lightning and some Product Experts. Questions?

    I don't think anyone can tell you the towing range without knowing WHAT you are towing. And not just weight. EV's lose range due to aero too. The same weight trailer with good Aero may not affect range the same way as one that is shaped like a square block. Be ready for weather to affect range...
  17. Will have access to F-150 Lightning and some Product Experts. Questions?

    Both the SR and ER DCFC at 150 KW. Why does it take the SR LONGER to charge when it has a smaller battery? Also . . . the spec sheet says the 80 amp connected charger is included with the ER pack - is that correct, or a typo? See attached spec sheet.
  18. Reservation holders for 2022 F-150 Lightning - sign in here!

    5/19/21 10820534 And once again trying to puzzle these reservation numbers. While my screenshot says 5/20/21 GMT, I reserved right at 10:00 pm EDT.
