  1. Ford sent out (blanket spam) email: "An Important Update About Your Order" [Ford Official Comment]

    This email was not specific to lightning orders. ICE F150 delayed too. I wouldn’t worry about this too much.
  2. Ford sent out (blanket spam) email: "An Important Update About Your Order" [Ford Official Comment]

    I wouldn’t read too far into this mass email. These appear to have been sent to large groups of ford customers with an active order. They are being sent to ICE F150 orders as well. I think this is a boiler plate email saying “expect delays”.
  3. F-150 Lightning Residual Values for Ford Options Plan Released (compared to Mach-E)

    I’m not saying I (You) don’t own it. I’m saying you are “selling” back to Ford at the agreed residual price that is predetermined in the Ford Options Plan. If the dealer or ford say the truck is only worth $15,000 you don’t come up with the difference. That’s the whole point of them providing...
  4. F-150 Lightning Residual Values for Ford Options Plan Released (compared to Mach-E)

    Not sure if this is accurate. At the end of the 36 or 48 months and you have no intention on keeping it, you would return it to Ford Motor Co finance via the dealer. The dealer isn’t buying. And if they are, they are going to buy it from Ford Motor Co. I could be wrong through.
  5. Will Lightning have OBDII port?

    There isn’t an OBDII port there. There is a diagnostic port there which you can plug an OBDII adapter that you purchase elsewhere to gain the similar information.
  6. Will Lightning have OBDII port?

    No OBD ports in Tesla model 3 and model Y. It’s not nessecary in electric cars since it was designed entirely for the purpose of emissions testing… there is no emissions in an electric truck, so not required. I’m sure they will still install one though.
  7. F-150 Lightning Residual Values for Ford Options Plan Released (compared to Mach-E)

    They wouldn’t buy it from you. You would just drop off the keys. If you’ve used more miles then allocated in your Options “plan” you will be charged a per mile fee. If you use less miles, you don’t get anything. You don’t get any of your sales tax money back, even though you paid on the price of...
  8. F-150 Lightning Residual Values for Ford Options Plan Released (compared to Mach-E)

    This is the way it was explained to me via a Ford dealer. I think if you were planning on putting down $24k plus an additional $7-10k to cover tax, title, registration. Your loan amount over 36 or 48 months would be the $16k plus interest. There maybe another minimum threshold that is unspoken...
  9. F-150 Lightning Residual Values for Ford Options Plan Released (compared to Mach-E)

    30% of vehicle sale price not including sales tax and dealer fees. $80k lariat max down payment would be $24,000. These are rounded numbers.
  10. Got a Ford Email! But it just "preapproves me" for financing to buy a vehicle that I can't even get

    Down payment would be made on the actual loan. 50% of $80,000= $40,000 plus down payment. If you put $10k down your loan would be 30,000 for 36 or 48 months. Sales Tax and dealer fees aren’t factored into this.
  11. Payload capacity on Lightning Lariat Extended Range : 1452 pounds

    #MindBlown ? Thanks for that. I thought they were solid black this whole time. Not sure how I feel.
  12. Payload capacity on Lightning Lariat Extended Range : 1452 pounds

    The lariat build and price is all black. Not two toned.
  13. Payload capacity on Lightning Lariat Extended Range : 1452 pounds

    Two tone seats threw me off. All these trucks out right now are pre-production. So anything can change.
  14. Payload capacity on Lightning Lariat Extended Range : 1452 pounds

    I’m pretty sure that is a platinum model. Not lariat.
  15. My Lightning order already delayed....

    Any truth to the spay in bed liner causing huge delays? I’m okay with a few extra days, I just don’t want it to be delayed 4 weeks because I chose a factory sprayed in liner. Thanks in advance for your insight.
  16. Wave 3 Feb 3rd ~ XLT SR

    Keep in mind - The R1T is powering four motors, F150 is powering two. I agree the range seems optimistic with only 131kWh, but it should be pretty close.
  17. Removing Lightning badges

    Totally going to remove mine as well. Heat gun and fishing line works the best.
  18. Max tow package on Lightning - how much can I tow without it?

    From what I’ve heard elsewhere it’s additional cooling for the batteries to handle the extra weight.
