Confirmed that the "Preferred Times" and "Departure Time" tiles have disappeared from my FordPass app by making this change. Guess I'll be turning it back on (my personal choice as I use the functionality).
Also received 6.4.0 yesterday (forgot to check my app until this morning, and it doesn't send me notifications and nothing popped up on the truck's screen when I ran an errand this morning). I didn't notice a change in anything, but I was on the way to a doctor's appt., so was focused on...
I got 6.2.0 (the re-release) today upon arriving home after going out to get dinner. Thankfully, this forum prepared me for the "mirrors not folding" issue, got that sorted. :)
This is my fourth (?) update in as many weeks...nice that things are rolling out. Looking forward to getting that SOC...
Also reserved an R2 after my wife saw it. This would be the perfect accompaniment to our Lightning. Used to have a 2016 Jeep Wrangler, which was a blast to drive, but uncomfortable and noisy. This scratches that "Jeep itch" (in my opinion), while letting us retain the Lightning for hauling, road...
For those with the A2Z adapter, is this the one in question?

Do you feel it's worthwhile? My order from Ford is targeted for May, but we have some weekend trips planned that would be well-suited to using the Tesla network if it's...
My biggest concern is that if we need an OTA update in our trucks to use the adapter and the Tesla network. Given that I took delivery of my truck at the end of October 2023 and have yet to receive any of the major updates, I'm a little concerned about being "hamstrung" without the update.
Yeah, I'm noticing the "build a new station nearby but don't replace the old one" trend when I look at the Tesla charger map. Interesting. For those gaps, there are decent EA stations I could use.
Thanks for all the clarification on Tesla DCFC version numbers. I'm hoping that one of the places we road trip to frequently (i.e. annually or sometimes twice a year) will get upgraded from 150kW chargers to 250kW before our next planned trip there in June. :)
Ah, thank you. I can't remember that far back. :)
Also found it in today's press-release update (if I'd bothered to read it all the way through):
"The Fast Charging Adapter will provide Ford F-150 Lightning, and Mustang Mach-E owners access to Tesla’s V3 and above Superchargers. Ford will start...
I'm still confused (doesn't take much these days)...how do we know that only V3/4 chargers will be usable by us? V2 at 150kW is still more throughput than a lot of other charging stations...
USPS Informed Delivery says my CSP letter is in the mail today; I'll call to schedule service when I have it in-hand. Curious to see how long it takes my dealer to get...they sell a fair number of Lightnings, so I'm hoping it'll be quick...
I agree completely, three different use cases, for sure.
I'm more lamenting the fact that Ford cutting production potentially impacts overall EV adoption and the ramifications therein. :)
So frustrating to see them cutting production, when so many other (*cough* European and Asian *cough*) companies are ramping up EV production. Demand in general for EVs is high, Ford just has a very specific/targeted product in the Lighting.
We bought our Lightning instead of a Rivian R1S due...
Also from Oregon, central Willamette Valley here, so I feel your ice pain. However, we park in our garage, and I'm so grateful that we do. Saved a lot of issues when I had to take make a legitimate emergency run out yesterday in this nonsense.
This is the way! :D
Our current house isn't worth the expense, but when we move (hopefully in the next year or two) to our permanent home (i.e. prepping for retirement) I'm definitely having the FCSP, solar and perhaps an additional battery backup solution installed. :D
