I was late to the F150 Lightning party with a mid-June 2021 reservation. Made reservation with closest dealer to me, General manager and sales manager both assured me MSRP with NO ADM or add ons. However, although they were initially receptive....over the past few months they have been avoiding...

Probably safer than riding the subway... (Too soon?)

They are probably in town for the NY auto show...I plan on rolling down to NYC Sunday or Monday...

Dang..congrats!!

I mean I've done it before for a concert at MSG....but its rough the next morning when you roll back to Albany at 2am. I've already gotten a ride in the Lightning.. another ride I may just get more impatient waiting. to order. :( Any word on where you are in the pecking order at Metro? Morris...

Sigh..just a bit too far away from Albany to run down there after work. Perhaps if I'd know in advance I'd take a half day..

FFS...2.0 is pretty good in "hill country". Having to drag 2000lbs up and down hills is going to have a noticable effect on efficiency. While we are at it..the fact that 300mi was the estimate and the fact they got an EPA estimate of 320mi tells me they were on the money--with or without the...

Yes it is....Volvo has said they are eligible for the full tax credit. Also rear motor(EV) is 150hp..capable of running in EV mode under most conditions 450hp.....thing rips 0-60mph in 4.5s Only thing about the xc90..the xc90 has the older infotainment system. The xc60 has transitioned over...

What is the ROVP site? Is that something at the dealer or is that the Ford.com reservation site? (Ford.com account) Nathan

Grabs popcorn to watch argument unfold over a hypothetic charging situation with or without a keytag that may or may not be free. Thrilling!!

I'm looking very hard at the xc60 or xc90 phev. They have improved it for 2022 with more range..up to 35mi and a stronger rear motor so it is drivable in EV mode. With the improved hybrid system it now has 450hp. 0-60 in about 4.5s. Much improved over the older phev hybrid system. I've always...

Also in the BBB is an extension of the solar tax credit for 10yrs AND the solar credit becomes a refundable type credit. (Currently you can carry it over, but not get cash back). If solar installers could offer a cash rebate at purchase that would remove a huge obstacle to rooftop solar. As it...

I think this may be what you are talking about-- https://www.ford.com/technology/driver-assist-technology/evasive-steering-assist/ Although it says clearly it does not steer, maybe it applies the brakes harder one side which in theory helps you steer to the left around the obstacle. Just a...

There's something that says "The countdown is on" and has counter to the "Launch of the F150 Lightning". Details-- You're invited to join the F-150 Lightning team on YouTube, April 26 at 1:30 pm ET as we launch the only EV that can call itself an F-150. Come and see the smartest, most...

Well I can speak for myself here. My wife drives a 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid approaching 150k miles. Despite its age it still gets decent mpg and is relatively cheap to own, even with the $4/gal gas prices. If there were to be a $7.5k -12.5 refundable tax credit on the table I'd replace it this...

Or they could just offer a crapload of std 110v plugs and everyone trickle charges. It may take 3-4 days but if the car is in long term parking at the airport who cares how long it takes? Reminds me of when I went on a roadtrip to Canada.. our hotel in Saskatchewan had plugs at every parking...

Other than doing the right thing in the customer relationship. The best dealers-- the ones that are going to survive the upcoming purge will be the ones that realize a good business relationship is more valuable than a quick buck. Example: I have a Ford guy in SW Va. I've now bought 2 vehicles...

Didn't they grandfather some Bronco reservation holders? We're in a big grey area here. Whereas legally I could see them being able to raise prices, I also see it as a PR issue.

Ford saw the Rivian backlash. I'm hoping they decide to do the right thing and grandfather all reservation holders into the old prices.

The expansion went fine. Initially were going to just add panels to my existing inverter. However, It became clear it was beneficial to add a second inverter so we could mount a few panels on the backside of my house(NW facing) so there was generation in the afternoon. Something I forgot to...
