@@Stefan_Dahn A mess but still the best of any OEM so far. Heck, many of them dont even bother with a frunk, even with their supposedly "ground up" EVs.
Alex asked some really insightful questions and Sandy took the time to not only tell but to explain the operation and rational behind the reasoning. When an inquisitive mind meets a Sage then knowledge and understanding has the chance to blossom.
The great thing about the inclusion of the intern is that Sandy keeps the information a bit more general, with less acronyms and more inclusive to a wider audience. I'm not complaining about the deeper dive videos and they usually explain the acronyms and trade talk, but this was very easy to understand because most of us are on a closer technical level to an intern than to an automotive engineer. Sandy can communicate on both levels. Well done.
Speaking of acronyms… “Don’t use acronyms or nonsense words for objects, software or processes at Tesla. In general, anything that requires an explanation inhibits communication. We don’t want people to have to memorise a glossary just to function at Tesla.” -Elon Musk
It's clear that Sandy really wants to pass along the knowledge he's collected. I like how he addressed all of her questions and comments while maintaining his own flow.
It’s nice to see Sandy explain things to Alex and not the camera. He didn’t turn to the camera to explain. It shows his respect towards her and that he cares about her learning. Great video.
Just bought one of these, so now I'm watching all these old videos. I like how the front tray pops out in one piece, giving really clean access to all the lines and components underneath. 🙂
@@markplott4820 Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, it not a good teacher, very distracting, and unlistenable.....it's like finger nails on a blackboard
Sandy seems like an amazing teacher. If only I had a career in engineering! Instead, I’m lucky to experience his expertise online. Alex is incredibly lucky!
So far I'm very impressed with the design of the Lightning truck. Ford obviously knew that they really needed a big win and their strategy to move quickly is giving them enormous free advertising.
What a great thing to get the interns involved. Thank you for training the next generation. I was a intern and I mentored interns. It’s a great program.
I work in pharmaceutical manufacturing sciences and technology. As someone who just had my round of this year’s bioengineer interns come through, I really appreciated today’s videos. So many people rag on the younger gen but there’s plenty of proof out there for young, intelligent, energetic folks coming through without making assumptions and ready to learn and contribute. Makes me hopeful. As a side note, it’s an added bonus to see more women in STEM. I’m a huge advocate for increasing their presence.
So far we absolutely love our lightning pros and the frunk is incredible. Only thing id change if possible would be to make it a touch more square but still amazing
I don't think that Alex has any idea the privilege it is the work around such a brilliant brain that Sandy has. Hope she stays working with your company.! And all the other brilliant people in the company also!
Great thing about interns is they see with "fresh eyes": -They don't make all the assumptions that us more seasoned folk do. -They generally don't care about vroom-vroom noises or "dual exhaust tips" or demanding a shift knob dominate a center console.
She improved the video. By asking what may seem to be simple questions to a seasoned engineer, he goes into details of manufacturing that we wouldn't hear otherwise.
Great addition to the crew. At the 4.15 min mark...you introduced the bolt as a hex insert. My eyes told me it looks more like a torx insert head. Correct me if I am mistaking
I always love Alex’s enthusiasm and desire to learn, such a sweet young lady. I just get so distracted by her constant nodding, which I understand isn’t a bad trait… just her acknowledging she is listening. Keep up the good work.
FUD motors did not build the F150 Lightweight, it nearly Assembled it from FUD parts catalog. they are still using CATALOG engineering. the FUD Muck-e AWD is made in two halves, FWD by MAGNA, and RWD by BORG- Warner. POS.
Interesting imo the lightning program was headed up by a women as well. Almost made it seem like Ford's internal male engineers didn't want to lead a program like this ev on an ice platform effort by fomoco. Even more interesting was hearing Linda Zhang the chief engineer say they started this program officially in Sep 2018. Which is prior to farleys ceo tenure despite the media crediting him with it's successes. 🤔
15:46 Now that is a mess. They are 7-8 years behind Tesla. Just like Ford's mess in the Mustang. GREAT presentation, you both make up a good team! Well done boys and girls! 👍😉👍
I just can't help but notice the way she always nods her head whe Sandy is talking it's a lot that's why I noticed, that's a special way to communicate your engagement in the conversation, I like it! Best of luck and all good wishes for your studies and great career ahead!
She’s so sweet. For some reason I kept imagining Sandy’s wife. They look alike, no?. Very cool for Muro to give everybody a chance to shine 👏🏻 Keep up the good work as we need more female engineers
I am glad to see Alex as intern on YT, if young women like her is taking interest in Automobile engineering it be Amazing to see future vehicles, And Alex is learning from the best of the best :) Thank you Sandy for all you do :) Sandy would love to see your take on Legacy Automakers who Took Tax Payer bail outs and sold tech to Chinese companies anyways :)
The questions Alex asked and the observations she made indicate to me that she thinks like an above average engineer. My unsolicited advice to Sandy: "Hire Alex for your team ASAP."
@15:00 the inverter is huge because Fords using 80A 240v where Tesla and most others are using 32A or 40A inverters. They also need to support bi-directional
Are you thinking of the AC charger not the inverter? The inverter takes DC power from the batteries and converts it to ac for the motor. It may be the inverter that runs the onboard AC outlets which might be why it's so big. The charger is a rectifier that converts AC to DC to charge the battery. The bi direction is just closing the battery contactor and supplying DC power to the charge port where the external wall box can connect it to a external battery and inverter system similar to a Powerwall.
It's great to see women getting into STEAM fields. Huzzah, Sandy and Munro Associates. EDIT: Sorry, deduct one point: 8:20 "This is the real deal. This is made for a working man." Women can't work hard? Old habits die hard, eh Sandy?
good to see you featuring a intern on your video Sandy truly teaching the next generation of Engineers, i salute you Sir :) :)
Must have figured the algorithm out.
Agreed!! so awesome to see our great generational minds passing their expertise on the then next wave.
Wow, Munro vid on your resume? Priceless!
Imagine Sandy your mentor! That’s my dream
Pretty sure she got the part because she's pretty.
An excellent way to present something. . . with an intern asking intelligent questions. . . makes us ALL smarter

Nice shoes. Everyone is so well dressed. It makes the whole company look very professional.
The thought Ford put into this is awesome , advantage of being in business so long.
What a great truck. Ford always thinks of dang near everything when it comes to real working trucks.

It also can be a BMC ( bulk molding compound ) with nylon or carbon powder to make it black.
All I can say is, that if she is an example of young people today, we will be in good hands going foward.

The questions Alex asked and the observations she made indicate to me that she thinks like an above average engineer. My unsolicited advice to Sandy: "Hire Alex for your team ASAP."
Can you show how the Front Electric latch is secured to the front brace on the truck? I want to see how the mechanism works when the frunk is released
I didn’t see any Bruno mars popping out of the frunk. I feel gypped.
Great video regardless! Very informative!
Sorry!
A FRUNKENSTEIN in every frunk!

I wish we could buy one of those coats. I like them. 👍

God bless!
uhhhh.. , no. he's incorrect. The frunk drain is NOT for melting ice, it's there because the frunk was not designed to be water proof.
So if the ice or liquid drains, where does it drain toward? Is there a diverter channel?
Congrats to Alex!
Nice Ford F150 advertisement, thanks.
Same as the VinFast advertisement the other day. $andy the $ellout
So every time they tear down a vehicle is an ad now?
@@mattbrew11 $andy needs to disclose his relationships. The fact that he doesn't makes his "unbiased" opinions mostly worthless.
@@bobbbobb4663 im sure he cares what you think. Why are you here watching these videos?
@@mattbrew11 Tell $andy to call me
I avoid hammering anything with a U channel as it bends wider causing a loose fit. Always push a boot seal on by hand without a mallet.
but that drain in the frunk without a plug might flood it up when F150 go deep in waters!
Reason for the steel tubing, I'm guessing is rigidity, rigidity and more rigidity.
Liking your scotch neat!!! Lmao hahahahah
Alex has a bright future ahead of her
Pickup truck, doesn't put cement in the trunk, it's a pickup truck!
Poor interns, having to pretend that they don't know why there's a drain in the frunk.
You guys got a $100K Platinum trim to use as a tear down model! 😮
Noice! Alex for the win at the end,
