We are getting a new supercharger sataion built near me. The pallets of chargers and other equipment,ent arrived and have sat for weeks to a month or more but they are all inside a chainlink construction fence. That’s odd they are not protected in any way. Since the location is by the river...

I got 86 concrete landscape stones for free and hauled top them 100 miles from Houston to our ranch out west. It definitely affected the mileage. No issues with acceleration or braking but either I could feel or imagined feeling them when I changed lanes. I calculated after the fact that they...

I have a 50 amp 220 volt circuit and charge with a 40amp Juicebox. I get about 15 mph added.

I put it to good use yesterday and today. Yesterday….using the onboard power to cut Unistrut with my jigsaw and metal blade, followed by partial assembly of the u is grit frame. Today…hauled this stuff 100 miles to my ranch and then completed assembly of my power inverter box for my solar...

Definitely , especially at the reduced price it went to after I bought or the extended range version at my original price. I’m 67, and in Texas. It’s my first ever truck and it’s fantastic. I have level 2 Juicebox chargers at my home and at the weekend ranch, they work great. I also have Ford...

Thanks for the explanation. Will this work if I choose a Tesla Supercharger station? I assume so. If the station is closer than 20 minutes/miles, should I just choose an earlier departure time?

I know how to precondition on a Tesla but not on my Lightning. How do you precondition on a Lightning?

I got mine in June 2023 and we love it. Super quiet. Smooth ride Great power Tons of soace Problem free Zero issues with OTAs I installed a Juicebox charger at my home and one at my ranch, but have both a Ford and A2Z NACS adapter for superchargers. I now only have to go to gas stations for...

Mine arrived today, ordered 2/29.

Mine arrived today. I placed my order on 2/29.

I ordered Feb. 29 and my number is 15000 something. Latest update said September. I bought an A2Z Typhoon adapter and used it yesterday.

My daughter and SIL traded in their Tesla Model 3 for a KIA EV 9 a few months ago. They have a dog and a new baby and wanted more room for all creatures great and small and the associated gear. 😎

I get over the air updates Al, the time without issue. I’m in Houston, Texas. I agree fully with your decision on the potential bricking updates. Whether the service department was screwing with your or not, I would not take that chance for an ease of use upgrade.

I don’t think Ford is trying to force anything. I think they are pissed and frustrated with Tesla. These should not be hard to make, you just need someone to manage the process. I’m assuming the process got destroyed when Elon had his fit and laid off the entire charging group,

After getting my latest Ford apology email I checked my status. I’d ordered my adapter on 2/29 and had a June promise up to some time in July, LOL. I just checked and it’s moved to September. I should get my A2Z adapter well before then. Tjese things should not be hard to make, it seems Tesla’s...
