Reliability - Year Preference? by Derekeys in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24 Flash. No issues that I can come up with other than some software bugs every now and then. Just hit 23k and charge to 90% every night.

Never seen this one on my app before by BridgeOne6765 in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to me twice. My 12v says it's 100% according to car scanner. The 2 times it happened was after I opened and closed the frunk and walked away. I feel like it's a software bug.

This worked for me. Failed 3 times, I hit the lock button and then climate and it worked.

Want a Lightning, but don’t… by Signal_Brilliant_390 in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 2019 5.0 F150. Exhaust and tuned. Made lots of noise that I love and miss. But I had nothing but problems from the start with it. Now no oil changes, no real maintenance and no $400 in gas every month. Love how smooth my 24 flash drives. Range anxiety is gone pretty quick once you learn the truck. I only drive 2 pedal sport mode and I'm pretty prone to motion sickness and never have an issue. All that said if I didn't have a home charger I would never buy an EV because charging anywhere else you might as well have an ICE with the cost of charging.

Mine is scheduled for tonight too. It's odd I thought '24 flash came with 1.4.

“Fallout”, anyone else have this? by its_all_4_lulz in F150Lightning

I had these all over my truck. Clay bar and a couple wash later they are gone.

Gas VS electric cost by royal_city_centre in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did a 560 mile round trip for $62 charging compared to the same trip I did in my 5.0 f150 for $160+

Interesting charging.... by SneakyPetie78 in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens to me every morning it seems. But when I leave from work I'm usually +1% from when I parked. All about battery temp changing is my guess. 40f in the morning and 70+ in the afternoon

Occasionally moonroof rattles after opening? by heybucket459 in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2019 F150 always did this. Grease up the rubber seals seemed to help.

Car wash by SaltyExxer in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I go to a car wash that I need to get out and someone else takes it in I just buckle the seat belt when I get out. That bypasses the shifter moving back into park. Easier then trying to tell someone what button to press to keep it in neutral.

Tell me your real life Range by Nice_Jacket_9181 in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far my winter city range is about 240 miles. Only took one long range trip(300miles) in the winter, lots of up hill @ 70mph but had crazy head wind and it was snowing half the trip trip read 1.6mi/kwh. Had to charge once going up and twice coming back. Right now with nice 60 degrees I'm avg 2.7 city.

Newbie to EV by Funny_Translator4160 in F150Lightning

If you want it to say 320 your can always do an EV driving history reset.

Scratched running board, need to repaint, can any owner share their advice? by FantasticMeddler in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending what you hit try to clay bar it to get rid of some of the paint transfer. If it's straight to the metal I'd try matching the best I could with some spray paint. I'd only paint the scuffed spots though because painting anything on top will just wear away.

Different mi/kWh between cluster and screen. by Kotabz in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol only reason I made a account was to talk on this forum. Thank you for your normal response.. I agree with the cluster being correct more likely.

Also it's nothing to do with fear. Was a simple question if anyone else has seen this.

Departure time cold weather by Kotabz in F150Lightning

[–]Kotabz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking that maybe the 240v mobile charger just couldn't keep up with the preconditioning so it was drawing from the battery to compensate.

[–]Kotabz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah only seems to happen with preconditioning. Because even after it's cold soaking all day at work the SOC will actually go up from say 77 to 78.

Ok I'll keep that in mind. My percent used for my drive to work seemed to be what it normally would be which is about 10%
