Nice job. Based on little facts, it seems to me like the production-to-delivery process and timeline is a lot smoother than this Mexico scheduling and cattle-car circus delivery routines of the MME.

Currently have a MME, a Rivian reservation for 1 year so I'm holding onto that. But man, that Lightning looks awesome!

Thanks for sharing and looks good.

One thing I was confused on, do Ford trucks have gaps and paint issues where the other vehicles in their line up don't? I was under the impression all of Fords vehicles (especially the top seller F150) would not have build quality issues.

The paint quality and overall body fit finish is not Mach E like. Wider gaps, body sealer looking at the gaps and visible, major orange peeled paint (like any F150) , black fasteners in white wheelwell edges. Again the Mach E paint quality and gaps are much much better.

Same old STINK screen I see...

Not buying another car with that screen unless they fix it...

Rest looks good though!
Not trying to derail this thread (nice truck by the way) but what's wrong with the screen? I really like it in my MME.

Just a quick note: F150 Lightning is pacing the NASCAR Truck Series race tonight in Nashville. 😊🐩

I wondered the same thing, I think it’s great. And just as good in the Lightning.

Constant glitches, constant Audio Off during USB/SiriusXM, constant Day mode at Night/Night mode at Day, constant mislabeling of saved SiriusXM stations e.g. BB King blues shows the proper icon on the 'what's' playing, but the screen selection shows some other channel.

Etc, etc., et. al. They did a factory reset (not the master reset you can do from the sync screen) and some other module updates that 'fixed' it for a few months, but then the round of updates 2.6.0, 2.7.1, 2.7.2 seemed to have calmed it, then I got 2.4.3 and the next day I went out and the glitch came back on a remote start.

sigh...

OK, well sorry you are having such issues of course. Me, I've had none of those, ever.
