I have the steel version and I had the issue of the hitch turning so i bought the mat and use my chain mounts for my oem gooseneck and fifthwheel hitch in my 2017 ram 3500 6.7 cummins and I haven't had any issues sense

Thanks for the content

What is the distance between the rails? I’m concerned my 5th wheel hitch will hit on tight turns.

Thank you for your videos. I just purchased a 24 flash last week. I have a swimming pool maintenance route currently drive an F150. Do you have any advice on an adapter for charging at a Tesla station? The Ford adapters are showing currently unavailable so I’m on an email list. Is there one you would recommend purchasing in the meantime?

Thanks, your video just saved me from getting the LP4 lights.

Thanks for this great review. I just installed it on my lifted level 2024 f350. tremor. I used the spacers, and i have the same distance from the block and the stopper. Havent towed the 5th wheel yet. Feel pretty confident it will help after watching your video. Also, have the same anderson hitch. No issue with it so far.

Where about did u cut the pipe at? Any pics or vids on that?

Are you supposed to leave that gap? Or is it fine to make contact all the time?

Very nice truck specially the color can you share link of retractable bed Tonneau cover

I'm with you. I bought the Flash trim about 3 weeks ago. I'm canceling my Cybertruck reservation. I love the Lightning.

I just bought a 2024 Lightning Lariat for less than $56k, but I was able to get x-plan pricing and a bunch of rebates. I’m really happy with the truck and with what I paid for it.

😂 the shovel bit made me lol

We have the same hitch and it did move on us the first camping trip. We went ahead and bought the Anderson Bed Shaft and we also bought the Bed Mat. Since installing the new Accessories our hitch is perfect. We have 1000 miles on the hitch and we love it.

May I ask how you sold it? Did you sell it to a business or another consumer? How fast did it sell? And how much did you get for it? I really appreciate you showing the paperwork when you bought it.

I thank you for showing the paperwork. I respect it.

I love my Lightning, but jeez the new Chevy EV range blows us out of the water.

Great explanation of the towing capabilites of the EV VS gasser!

Great video! Sad about the range when towing. Saves you sooo much on gas. Could you get another truck just for towing the boat?

Tremor def reduces your payload capacity

I've had this same issue had an old rubber car mat,cut out 4 sections,placed on the corners of the base,no further issues with movement

Is there a way to fix that water leak area on the back corners, after market ourselves? May the manufacturer can figure out a way? I'm surprising that tube seal across the top of the tailgate can't just be long, all the way to the edges? Other than that, and water leaks is a huge issue for me, but other than that I love this thing. But another thought: Why not keep the Diamondback, just take it off and store it inside the bed on the sides when using the 5th wheel, and then at destination putting it back on? The two ends come off easily, and just keep the tool you need to take the center support off. Thoughts?

I have the same truck and am looking at this hitch. How tight can you turn after adding the 4" ball extension?

Try The fuel box they are shipped from California. They are expensive but worth every penny.

Expensive... A 40/44 Fuelbox. 40 gallons and you get a shallow toolbox to boot. My Andersen hitch slides right between the mounting feet not sure about other style hitches.

I had the twisting of the hitch and purchased the Andersen mat…problem solved

Great video. What's your pin weight?

Please keep in mind those side chargers are the only ones Tesla's hauling trailers can use. Please use those side ones as a last resort if you can. It's frustrating to pull up with a trailer and a Tesla with no trailer is using the side supercharger with 7 other open regular superchargers. Thanks!

What state are you in?

Do you have a ICE vehicle as well?

Are you purchasing the truck?

I drive a Tesla. Other car companies Get your own charge station. This is wrong. You guys trash the charge stations with your garbage 🗑️

I noticed you told another commenter about a "discounted rate" for the "plug and charge" feature. I saw that to charge your F150 Lightning it cost you nearly $30. I've been driving Teslas for 7 years now and I think the most I ever paid for charging at a Supercharger was about $24 and my battery was at 7% and I charged it to full on a road trip. Normally, it costs me between $10 to $15 to charge at a Supercharger if I'm not less than 20%. Guess you guys in non-Tesla vehicles must be paying a bit more than Tesla users to purchase your electrons. Is that right?

I think the people did not read directions. I did and forgot over the day and was like hmm then felt the bottom button and remembered. No issues but I need to setup the plug and charge. Is that on the Tesla side or the ford side?

Good review. Thank you!

Glad it all worked fine for you! Can't wait for my EV manufacturer to be given the adapter green light.

Great review and info!

Great video. Thanks. I’m really wanting a lightning. That adapter looks like it works great.

I ordwred rhe rigid dss in flood pattern this morning. For 2 premium lights, that says a lot more avout the qualiry of the smaller dss to even warrant a comparison woth the twice as expensive bigger baja design lifhts. Youd expect yhat from them. This makes me even happier about my choice. Amd the rigids you xan tet amber covers that essentially make them more versatile for still half the price

I did the sumo springs….very similar to the Timbrens but a little less firm as it’s a progressive engagement…certainly improved the ride.

Nice Xpress boat! How far can you tow it with the Lightning?

the link you posted in description total is $394 , why is the one on the timbren website going for almost $500? is it any different?

I live in Florida and I own a 2023 Lightning too. The cost of electricity at public charging stations here is $0.56/kWh which makes paying for electricity at a public charging station more expensive than gas was for my old F-150! But charging at home costs me $0.12/kWh and I’m saving a huge amount over paying for gas by doing 100% of my charging at home.

Is this a lariat?

Thank you for a great video!! I would love a lightning !!

I have a 22 lightning platinum with every option that i paid 65k for on thanksgiving 23 with 95k msrp. I have NEVER been happier with any vehicle truck or car in my life. Cancelled all 4 cyber trucks i had on order.

Hi. What color is this truck? Is this the Azure Grey metallic tricoat?

I passed on the lightning craze and decided to wait for the cybertruck. That is, I waited for what the cybertruck promised (500miles starting at 40k). After the huge disappointment of what the cybertruck is, I am now a proud few week old owner of a platinum Lightning. I've owned many trucks and the lightning is spectacular. As you mentioned, there are a lot of different use cases so if a cybertruck meets those needs and you like it better, then go for it. For me, I needed a truck for utility. The huge frunk with power outlets was definitely a major deciding factor. I thought the Lightning prices were ridiculous, and they are, just like every other new vehicle out there. but Ford and some dealers are really pushing out discounts on these things. As you mentioned, my platinum lightning ended up cheaper than a discounted platinum ICE f150. Put all these things together and I went for it and so far I couldn't be happier. I already used it for towing a 6000lb load of dirt and I am sure I could beat a super car off the line while towing that (not encouraging people to race when towing but its that powerful). Amazing stuff and a great review. I agreed with everything you said. My only gripe so far is the software updates (Power UPs). I purchased the truck knowing a lot of the things that I didn't like were corrected in future updates (eg. battery % on gauge, pro-power on while vehicle off, charging rate on screen). I would have expected that dealers would get it updated to the latest version before handing you over the keys but my Lighting is way way behind. I'm still in the 4.1's almost a month later. I only got 3 updates in that time. Very frustrating as I would have expected it to be like an iPhone, where you go to software update and it does its thing and gets you up to date. Instead Ford decides when your truck gets an update.... One at a time..... slowly..... as weeks pass..... At this rate, I hope to be current and get the things I was promised a year later. Don't want to sound ungrateful because, one of the other reasons I bought the lightning is that I do see that they are improving the vehicle by providing these updates. I would just suggest they enforce and provide a mechanism so that dealers hand over fully updated vehicles.

Yep I used the 250 kit on my 350 2023. Nice that unloaded there is still about 1.5 inches before engaging. Thus ride is stock with no load. Love them. Leveled my truck out with load. Ford should do these from the factory.

Smoking deal

I got mine for $31k off and I love it
