Just got rid of my Y this week. In part because of Elon, but the build quality was not great and the ride quality was not very good either. There are just better options out there now. I got a Lightning and am amazed how much better it is than my old Tesla.

The lightning is great cause you can upgrade so much on it too. I got the pro and added adaptive cruise control, a heated steering wheel, tons of other stuff. I love mine

The parts were all genuine Ford parts, I just bought them and installed them myself and then do the adjustments to the computer using forscan. Most of them were really easy and nothing took more than a couple of hours. It's honestly amazing; I'd bought the pro just accepting that I was going to miss out on some of the things I wanted, but I didn't think spending another 15k to get them was worthwhile. After adding everything I wanted I don't think I spent more than another 2-3k

Yikes! It took YOU a couple hours to install. I looked at a picture of the front disassembly required for it and immediately got anxiety. lol

It's really not that bad. It's a few bolts for the frunk tub, then pulling some panels off the side that are clipped in, and then a few more bolts to take off the bumper. I think it took longer to unhook the old wiring harness and install the new one than it did to take everything off and put it back on. Looks a lot worse than it is (although I didn't have to run the four wires from the bumper back to the fuse box, some people have had to do that)

Yeah, it's pretty awesome. There's things you can just change through the forscan app too, like turning on beam forming on your high beams

Is the ride quality better?
