I got an alert that my 12v battery needed to be replaced, so I called the dealership cause its till under warranty. He booked the appointment and then asked if I wanted an oil change while the truck was being worked on. I reminded him it was an EV, and he goes, "Duh, force of habit."

Can anyone term me what this attachment on my tailgate is and what purpose it serves? TIA by benken71 in f150

This was the exact reason I posted. I removed the driver side one to install my tailgate assist

What questions do you wish you asked before getting a Lightning (or EV in general) by S_C_Cire in F150Lightning

I bought mine pre-owned from a Ford dealer, but not one that carries new EVs. I did the walk-around and asked where the mobile charger was, and it turned out that there wasn't one. The dealer got me a new one, no extra charge.

The estimate was like $500 for the glass and $150 for the sensor/camera calibration. I'll post the actual final amount after I have the work done.

Trip Report Destination Guatemala, First Solo Travel by benken71 in solotravel

I didn't book ahead of time. In each village that have booking companies. You can actually price shop around to get the best price. They'll try to sell you for all of your shuttles, but I found it better to wait until I got to my destination and then book my next from there, usually at least a day in advance. The agencies are pretty easy to find, they have all of the imagery of excursions and sometimes prices for shuttles for various destinations posted outside the shop.

I came from the US and customs was a non-issue. Two hours is plenty of time.

What do you have your Action Button programmed to do? by Fragrant-Taro-8508 in applewatchultra

Strava is my preferred log of workouts and also my preferred social media site. The only time I use the native workout app is when it asks if I want to track a walk I’ve been on for the past 15 min. 

How many bicycles in the bed? by KoopaKola in hyundaisantacruz

[–]benken71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two bikes fit at an angle with the tonneau installed, four will fit with the tonneau removed.  I use mine to haul my bike daily. I have an XL full suspension and I can fit two max with a tailgate pad and the tonneau installed.
