  1. Lightning suspension comparison to current F-150?

    And for comparison........this is about what a Mach E weighs
  2. Battling dealers trying to sneak ADM in even when the accepted order says $0 ADM (Tri-Ford, Highland, IL)

    I would not sign that document and then I'd look for a different dealer to switch my order too
  3. Pin to drive

    The door code will get me in the car. If, for some reason I forget the password to start the car I then have the FOB. Never had to do do this, so far. The other reason is the Ford service dept cannot use your PAAK while they have it for service. Since I use PAAK exclusively I am likely to...
  4. Who is installing solar as part of their Lightning purchase?

    Same, closer to 20yrs in my case tho. TN does not have net metering so battery packs were added to the quote and, of course, increased the price. Even with the added value to the property our uncertainty about being here for the long haul said it didn't make sense for us at this time.
  5. Pin to drive

    LOL, you aren't wrong here. Personally, It has always worked for me. A couple of glitches here and there but I have never been locked out or prevented from driving away. I did get a faraday pouch from Amazon and keep the FOB in that inside the glove box. The only time I've used the FOB was when...
  6. Financing Your Lightning

    With the MME the biggest incentive was a $2500 rebate that went along with the Options plan. A lot of owners went this route and then either paid off the loan or refinanced
  7. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    Fair statement. Plus, do to a late reservation I am at least a 23MY and possibly later. Ford has already stated that the Lightning will be reworked and have an all new platform for 25MY. So I may be putting the cart before the horse here anyway. :ROFLMAO:
  8. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    The route we use has 2 DCFC on it, so getting to the destination 150 miles away is not a problem. Then there would be plenty of time at the campground to recharge and then 2 DCFC on the way home. Perfectly doable for us on this particular route. Certainly not doable everywhere and without proper...
  9. Dealer installed trailer brake controller?

    If you can change your order, I suggest you just add it. Yes, you can add an aftermarket part and it will work but the factory option is a much cleaner install and I believe you will be happier with it.
  10. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    Respectfully disagree. We need a truck that can tow our gooseneck horse trailer. We don't go coast to coast with the trailer but we do go to local trail heads (less than 50miles round trip) and an occasional 150 mile trip to a horse campground. The Lightning will be more than capable to handle...
  11. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    If there's room between all of this and the bed floor, it still should work. It will be close tho
  12. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    And based on this pic I believe it's possible to mount a gooseneck hitch on it. The base plate mounts to the frame rails and the ball extends into the bed. As long as the motor sits below the top of the frame rails, and the shock mounts don't interfere, it can be done.............IMHO Someone...
  13. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    I'm just saying it can and is being done much more often than you think. It all comes back to the truck owner to make sure they are within their capabilities.
  14. Good luck everyone. Looks like I’m getting a Super Duty instead of a Lightning.

    Clearly you are misinformed, my friend. There are plenty of 5ver campers that are advertised as F150 Friendly. We have a 2018 F150 that we tow a gooseneck horse trailer with. Gooseneck vs 5th wheel hitch is pretty much semantics. They both mount in the center of the bed above the axle...
  15. Towing With An Electric Truck - Is It Cheaper Than Gas? Rivian R1T vs Ford F-150 PowerBoost

    I just watched another of his vids where they compared weight vs bad aerodynamics with no weight. Bad aero was a huge hit above the weight, in fact, it did worse than this vid towing 7400# Aero is your friend for sure
  16. Charging Lightning while powering an RV trailer

    Our 2018 F150 has a goose neck hitch installed made by B&W. It bolts to the frame rails with a hole drilled in the bed for the ball to stick up. I think the shop that installed it for us raised the bed a bit to get it in, I may be wrong there. So, my point is that people use F150s to tow goose...
  17. No more Lightning ordering waves for MY2022 !

    I own the Premium AWD version and absolutely love it. No major issues after 19000 miles. There have been a few glitches here and there that self correct but nothing outrageous. Auto wipers do sometimes swipe for no reason so I typically leave them off unless it is raining and then switch to...
  18. No more Lightning ordering waves for MY2022 !

    Yes I do. I would consider trading it for the Lightning but not for another ICE. Especially with gas prices now
  19. No more Lightning ordering waves for MY2022 !

    Same email...........not really surprised and, to be honest, I'm not disappointed. Gives me time to decide whether to trade/sell the Mach E or the 18 F150
