There is a great possibility the whole NACS adoption thing was a PR stunt by Elon and Farley. There is no guarantee at all that anyone is getting adapters or integrated NACS ports and if it happens there is no timeline sadly.

I keep saying that if this was a reality we would have heard something by now but there being not even a peep of it is making me think that it was just a PR stunt as the above post says!

I ordered one, the likelihood of Ford sending one ... let's just say I won't be checking my underwear for monkeys ..

BTW, these guys will start shipping end of Feb and take returns for 2 weeks which should be enought time to see what Ford will do. If, by some miracle, I do have pants full of monkeys, I can just return it.

I'm sure Ford is going to follow through. The less they say now the less they have to correct later. They'll probably wait til its 2 days away from going completely live. So few people will be fully equipped and ready to use it that it will give Ford/Tesla ability to support that trickle of users who experience issues on day 1.

I decided to take chance and ordered the Supercharger adapter from Lectron. They claimed it will be here by the end of January. We will see.

When there is hard info on this, it will be shouted from the mountaintops and relayed ad-nausium.
And I will be a busy beaver merging umpteen threads, I intentionally ignore the current (OTHER) thread on the topic, but I'll know when the flare goes up on the NEW THREADS & POSTS filter that the blessed event has occurred.

You're a good man! BTW, thank you for all your hard work of managing the "madness"

There is zero possibility of this. While Musk is irresponsible and couldn't give a crap about anything, Farley is the CEO of a public company. You can't make announcements of things that impact the share price, like this clearly would, and then not have it implemented. Ford issued press releases specifying Spring 2024. It isn't a what if, it's a when.

Lots of us bought after this deal was announced. I wouldn't be here otherwise. Contracts were signed and terms were agreed upon.

It's expensive to get sued. The question is "when," not "if."

Exactly, there were 2 things combined that pushed me over the edge, the NACS announcement and the 10K price reduction to get the ER Lariat under 80K. Would not have bought without BOTH of those happening.
