This Halloween, I transformed my Lightning into a true Monster Truck! Candy was available to those children brave enough to reach into the monster’s mouth. It was the hit of the neighborhood. All the adults wanted to know about the electric F150. Some of the thought the truck was on fire, it...

It’s a squeeze! But I got 170 kW+ from this Supercharger. Has anyone noticed that because our charge port is on the opposite side of the vehicle from Teslas, none of them can use the adjacent station while we’re charging? When we charge, we’re effectively blocking two charging stalls. Could be...
