  1. Comparing the cost of a DIY to Ford Intelligent Backup

    Exactly. If you have F150 L with the 240 outlets you can get by with a mounted 240 volt plug, a manual transfers switch and the proper cable.
  2. TFL made it to Fairbanks

    The life you live is a dream for the rest of us and not most people's normal use case. Really cool being able to travel that much and see all those cool places. EVs (like most products) are all about incremental improvements. EVs not being able to do it all is okay
  3. New Jersey just funded its EV rebate program

    This program was just announced yesterday so maybe it is new funding - https://www.nj.gov/governor/news/news/562022/20220725a.shtml#:~:text=As%20of%20this%20announcement%2C%20all,rebate%20for%20a%20home%20charger.
  4. Immediately buying from a friend

    Exactly.. this is one gotcha. Many states collect for each other.
  5. Immediately buying from a friend

    CT is a progressive state. Why cant you just walk in there holding hands and buy it in both your names. Making a not-really funny joke of course but there is no reason you cant put both of you on the title. I use to buy houses with a friend and just referred to him as my partner. Partner is...
  6. Immediately buying from a friend

    To be technical I think you could do this in any state other then CT - doesn't really need to be NJ. Since you would be buying the truck to be registered in another state you normally fill out some paperwork saying you will register it elsewhere. Only issue would be - can you change the name...
  7. New Jersey just funded its EV rebate program

    The 4K is only up to 45K MSRP then 2K to 55K. So unless you are getting a Pro you are pricing out
  8. Why power output limited to 64% ?

    For replication. Is there a good odb software to read the raw data values from control modules that might be helpful
  9. F150 Lightning Towing Test vs GMC Denali (not Ike Gauntlet) by TFL

    Charing rate is more important then range. Porsche Tycan and Sliverado EV which have higher voltages can put on a ton of miles in 20 minutes. That makes them must more usable for long trips(or towing). Yeah 20 minutes is more than a pee break but it is just about perfect for a rest-stop...
  10. In-Person Lightning Impressions - From a XLT Order Holder (w/ Photos & Door Payload Sticker) [San Antonio Event]

    Agree on wanting to be able to pay up for bluecruise on lower trrim. That being said if you have the co-pilot 360 assist with 'Intelligent adaptive cruise control with lane centering' if you agree to keep your hand on steering wheel is the tech basically the same?
  11. My Lightning owner's thoughts and 1600 mile trip

    I in the crowd that if I needed to go 1600 mile I would fly (which of course you cant do when purpose is to pick up truck). That being said I did some 'fake' routes and found fairly good success for single day driving trips - ie not driving through night. 1)Start trip at 7am 2)20 min pee...
  12. New tax credit to be voted on soon!

    As someone who didnt get any of the covid stimulus money based on the fact that I live in a high-income/high-cost state I am not looking for another rebate we get cheated out of. That being said, I think the market can stand on its own - ie they are getting sold as fast as they are being made
  13. OutofSpec: Using F-150 Lightning as a power strip (charging 5 EVs at same time)

    would have been better to charge 1 car/truck on the 240 volt only and see what kind of miles that car/truck could have gotten in an hour. That would be more real world helping a friend kind of setup
  14. is co-pilot 360 active and blue Cruise the same except for the eyeball monitoring

    when you kick it back to Lane keep assist does the truck do the same things and just require you to keep your hand on the wheel? or does its capabilities change
  15. is co-pilot 360 active and blue Cruise the same except for the eyeball monitoring

    but besides the eye monitoring versus keeping your hand on the wheel is everything that the car manages the same. I.e does it keep you in the center of the lane in the exact same way?
  16. is co-pilot 360 active and blue Cruise the same except for the eyeball monitoring

    as the title says, is the co-pilot 360 active and the blue Cruise basically the same except for the fact that blue Cruise monitors your eyeballs and co-pilot 360 active needs your hand on steering wheel. what I'm really wondering about is driving on the highway, does co-pilot 360 active do...
  17. Is there a truck culture gap for the Lightning vs the ICE F-150s?

    The main barrier is the difference between how people use their trucks and how people think they use their trucks. Current tech is already enough for the majority of how users actually use their truck. I have a GPS tracker in my truck we made 1 trip from all year more than 100 miles - NJ to MA...
  18. Moving out

    This is the battle I go through mentally. Full shell means you cant come over the side and access your tools. I went with a diamond back cover on my Tacoma. The advantage is that it is super solid and you can get to things from back or front/side. You can throw lumber etc on top too (with the...
  19. Moving out

    I was going to suggest some Dewalt t-stak boxes but I see one in the first picture :ROFLMAO:. Any chance you can see how the t-staks fit in the frunk? Any way you can get two across? How many high?
  20. Show your Lightning's home charging setup!

    Is there any charger that can monitor how much power is pulling through main and lower the usage if the rest of the house has a high usage level? ie just because you have 200 amp service doesn't mean you will always have 80 amps free
