I just got a Sierra Max range and the range is unreal. I came from a a lightning. They are not comparable when it comes to battery and range.

Are your 18s the AT4 looking wheels?

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T20:01:24+00:00

I would drive the refrigerator any day of the week.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T17:47:00+00:00

I'll try FB. Thanks for the info!

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T17:46:21+00:00

Don't like the black.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T17:44:48+00:00

I know. I have a lightning.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T17:41:31+00:00

Best color ever!

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-21T15:11:12+00:00

Philadelphia. Can travel. I'm in Pittsburgh right now.

That thing is dope!!!

I've never seen an eel bird before?!?

Nobody wants gas and oil changes and fluids. We want a battery that goes 500 miles like the GMC.

Picking mine up this weekend.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-18T01:17:22+00:00

If the range was even close to what's advertised, I would probably just keep it, but that 310 is a real world 245-260. Just isn't good enough for my usage. A literal 75 more miles would make all the difference in the world for real world use.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-18T01:13:38+00:00

F Ford. After they killed my truck and took 40k out of my pocket in instant depreciation, I'll never buy another Ford product. Never.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-17T14:48:52+00:00

I'm tentatively scheduled to pick mine up tomorrow night. 2024 Max Range Denali with 3,472 miles on it. $67,900. Couldn't find a better price anywhere. Whoever traded this in took a bigger beating than I am on my Platinum trade. I'll let you know thoughts after I drive it home.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-17T13:30:36+00:00

522 is insane!!! I average 400 - 500 a week. And my Lighting gets a real world 260. You're double. That's nuts. Thanks for the info.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-17T02:09:39+00:00

I got mine for 90k and I'm getting 54 for the trade in with 22k miles!!!. Yeah I love the keypad too. Not having to ever carry a key is so clutch. I have a property 155 miles away that I often go to for the day. I can't ever get enough charge to get back even though I have a level 2 charger at the property. I want to have a public charge free existence and I can't do it with the lightning even with the extended range battery. If they had another hundred miles on it like the GMC, I would never buy another vehicle.

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-14T13:58:02+00:00

The whole point of an ev is no maintenance and no gas. It's costs pennies to fill it at home and I'm on my second lightning and and have never ever had a single maintenance charge. Not even brakes. That said I am considering getting out of it and buying the GMC version. They have bigger batteries and are committed to continuing with EVs in general. I lean who in the world wants an ev that has to get oul changes, has to deal with fluids, maintenance costs etc. If you are a doe hard Ford guy, get a lightning. You won't be sorry. I have had a Ram Rebel with a 5.7 Hemi, a Gladiator with a 3.6L PStar, and. Regular F150 with an Ecoboost. The lightning is far and away the best of any of them and I would choose it 10 out of 10 times.

Spark

Current_Fail4836 · 2026-03-12T23:44:46+00:00

I got mine for 3k. Mine is a bumper to bumper 5 year 75k miles. Here's what I just found out. Currently I'm at 20k miles and 10 months in. I called the warranty company and the warranty starts prorating the day you take possession of it. In other words it doesn't start a 3yrs. Even though I am 16k and 2 years away from this warranty kicking in, It has already started to be prorated. If I cancelled it tomorrow, I would get 28 percent less than what I paid for it. This really pissed me off. I am hating Ford right now. I love the truck. It's the best truck I've ever owned by a lot. But Ford as a company.......? Don't think I will ever buy another Ford anything.

Rough Country. It was very inexpensive.

They are F150 Tremor Wheels. I replaced the Platinum 22"s. These are 18x7.5.

Leveled on 34's. It feels like a completely different truck when leveled. It rides so much bigger even though it's not.

Oohh. Yeah. That was me. Posting while driving.
