8250 < 8500, though.

CO's state tax credit for EVs also goes up by a cool grand if 8500+ GVWR. Rivian came in at just over 8500 so it's not implausible... /me is hoping that it'll similarly be 8520 lb or the like.

from this thread of mine: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/ford-80a-charge-station-pro.4139/ in turn from footage from within Ford's facilities while the videographer in question was on tour. That's a CCS connector. Home charging is clearly via AC and the J1772 pins supplied by the...

Car & Driver didn't just invent these technical details… https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a36480020/2022-ford-f-150-lightning-charge-station-pro-explained/ Couldn't be more clearly stated.

My guess would be that the former would work. Charging is clearly going to be AC, level 2, so as long as the non-pin part of the adapter (to lock on to the lip) doesn't foul on the combined CCS connector then it should work… in theory.

Vehicle to home doesn't use the on-board chargers at all. It's DC from the vehicle battery to the wall-mounted inverter, part of the 80A EVSE setup. Ford's own documentation states the standard range battery + 80A EVSE can do Intelligent Backup Power.

Went to the Denver event just now. OneWheeled from my house since I live a mile away. The ride along was fun--I used to autocross. They were taking it easy in the curvy section but having them punch it in the straight and go pretty good in the first little chicane was entertaining indeed. Very...

That leaves it possible that individual trims may be margin negative, of course, but I'd guess that it's just closer to cost than the other padded trims.

Without the Max Trailer Tow Package the standard range battery towing capacity is 5,000 lb. https://www.motorbiscuit.com/2022-ford-f-150-lightning-pro-best-work-truck/

There are some out there that are quite light, but even with the 2k payload (vs 1,800 on the extended range and less yet for the heavier fancy trims) once you add in a driver and a passenger you're right at the limit.

From the various videos I gathered that the standard range (426 hp/775 lb-ft) will be right around 5.0 seconds 0-60. Half second slower than the extended range at 563 hp, which is just fine.

I stand corrected.

It's overdriving the DC plugs at the bottom of the CCS combo plug. Other cars with CCS ports wouldn't natively know (or have the ability to) route DC power out through them to the EVSE, afaik, as that's not part of the base spec. This is kind of why we have EVSEs: smart plugs, more or less...
