RE: F150 Lightning Road Trip & Ike Gauntlet Pull

While I genuinely like the idea of battery powered vehicles, they just don't work for much of the driving we do these days. Case in point, we headed from Colorado Springs to eastern Oregon last week and put down 1040 miles in 17 hours. No need to stop for a hotel but 17 hours in one shot is about our limit when traveling with kids. We did the same trip in reverse last night. There is no way we could have done that same trip in an EV in a single shot. The most painful part was the multiple $200 fill ups.

The torture test Ford put this 2011 through was pretty impressive. Towing 11,000+ lbs around a NASCAR track at full throttle for 24 hours shows a pretty impressive duty cycle IMHO.
I'm sure the engine has just gotten better and better over the past decade.

RE: 2022 F-150 Can Not install aftermarket brake controller!!!!!

I have a Prodigy that I move between three of my vehicles as needed. No problems with it working as intended and doing its job.
That’s nice…
Point being that it's easy enough to wire in an aftermarket controller as others have stated. None of my vehicles came with a factory brake controller option, but with power and a brake light switch wire it's pretty easy to get any vehicle wired up.
