I'm in Portland Oregon. I'm buying a Ford lightning but it's in Boston and I'm going to fly out and drive it back. I feel kind of crazy. I finally found a pickup truck that I wanted. I got both of the adapters for chargers and I have the apps. The last thing I need to do is pay for the Tesla charging app. It's going to be a long road trip in 4 days.

Warning - if your Lightning suddenly is pulling all orange bars when you attempt to charge, you may be shit out of luck like me. Ford dealer in West Memphis is saying it is an actuator assembly connected to the charging system that needs replacement. Truck under warranty but Ford no longer keeps part in stock (or so many are failing, they can't keep up with demand, who knows?) Long and short - I've been waiting ten days and now am number 9 of 21 folks waiting nationally for the assembly... Nasty Parts Issue Backup for 2024 Lightning Flash

2023 Lariat ER with Max Tow package, about 120,000 miles. I noticed in the last couple months that the HV Battery Temp guage was higher than normal after charging at supercharger stations. At first I chalked this up to 100 plus degree days here in Texas. But I got the same thing charging late night or early mornings. Also the battery temp would not go back to normal even after driving an hour at moderate highway speeds. Anyone else seen this problem? I checked that the radiator was clear...

I have a 2022 XLT Lightning. A few years ago, the bed camera began showing a blue screen or a blurry, negative image. Under the warranty, I had it replaced. Now the same thing is happening again. When I took it in, the camera surprisingly worked. The technician said it would cost $250 to run a diagnostic, but that they might not see anything. I am now out of warranty by years and mileage (54k+ miles) so I would have to pay for the repair. Maybe I need to check if there is an updated warranty... Bed Camera blue screen or glitch

Hey everyone, 2022 Lariat ER here, 39,000 miles. I love this truck, have had F150s for years, this one is the best. TLDR: Just wondering if anyone has been having 'battery capacity' errors after a "big lurch" while freeway driving or one pedal faults while feathering the go pedal or lifting abruptly. I've read a bunch of the other forum posts on those two topics and they seem similar but different to what has been happening with my truck. This is long, so sit down... Battery Capacity Gremilns while underway & some 'one pedal' faults

Hello fellow F150 Lightning owners. I have not posted much recently. Still stings from Farley's decision to axe the Lightning. As I have said before on this forum and to fellow owners I meet on the road...It is the best vehicle I have ever owned. Overall cost of ownership...Performance...Ride Quality. Amazing. So I finally got up the courage to make this approx 1300 mile road trip from Conroe Tx (north of Houston) to Ft Walton Beach Florida. I still believe it is the best vehicle I have ever... My First Long Distance Trip In My 2024 Lightning Flash And Why I Will Most Likely Not Do It Again!!!

Just got it and look mostly forward to all the power outlet use and the benefits of not using gas. I just use it locally but may go as far as 200 miles for a couple days camping once or twice a year. First truck and loving it. Had a Tesla 2021 Model Y but this has so much more to offer not to mention Car Play and Android auto. The small things make all the difference. Also have seen some nice mods for this Ford so I may dip and dab a little .
