  1. Sault Ste Marie to Montreal, can I make it in an ER?

    We're contemplating our first road trip in our 2024 Flash, from Minneapolis to Montreal, departing this weekend. We'd love to avoid the traffic of the Chicago area. I'm investigating the feasibility of taking a northern route through Sault Ste. Marie to Montreal. Using Plugshare, it looks like...
  2. This trip question mi/kWh: Average or semi real time?

    Hi, we’ve had a 2024 Flash since November. I still cannot figure out if the mi/kWh display is an average for the entire trip or a somewhat real time value to reflect changing conditions (city roads vs highway speeds). Sometimes the value fluctuates quite a bit over just a minute or two, and...
  3. Speedometer displays 0 while driving

    As we were driving our 2024 Flash last night, the speedometer continuously displayed zero. We pulled into a parking lot, turned off the truck, turned it on again and then it started working again. Has anyone else seen this happen? Glitches like these do not give me a lot of confidence that all...
  4. Charge off peak only but keep battery warm when cold

    I have Chargepoint Home flex charger. If I only charge between midnight and 6am, my rate is only 3.8 cents per kwh. I live in MN where temps can be below zero. I want to be able keep the battery warm without actually charging the truck during peak hours. Is this possible? Is there a way to set...
  5. Electrical system drain Service required message

    Hello, We are new 2024 Flash owners. Today it is -5F. I drove about 20 miles, having set a departure time and charged to 80%. When we were leaving our destination an hour later, I started up the truck and got this message: Electrical system drain Service required. As I was starting to look it...
  6. Driving a gecko back to school with heat lamp on!

    Our daughter volunteered to babysit the class gecko over winter break. I was excited to show off Pro Power when we loaded the tank into the truck and plugged in the heat lamp to keep the gecko warm for the trip home!
  7. Ideal defrost settings to minimize climate use %?

    New 2024 Flash owner here. For the past few days, we've hit subzero temps for the first time. I'm finding that my climate use hovers around 20-30% just to keep the windows from fogging up while I drive. I generally keep the fan on the lowest setting, only sending air to the windshield and...
  8. Using 240V extension cord with mobile charger?

    New Flash owner here. It will be a few weeks before our charger is installed. I am worried about damage to the battery due to relying on the fast chargers. Also, it is starting to get cold here in Minnesota and I am seeing notifications to keep the truck plugged in. I’m wondering if I should get...
  9. Is Ford Pass app essential? My phone is too old to install it.

    Hi, Just purchased a Flash a few days ago. I could not install the Ford Pass app on my iphone 7 because the iOS version is too old and cannot be updated. A few questions: 1. Do I even need this app or can I do everything I need to do from the truck’s control panel? 2. The dealer said...
  10. Should I buy Fleet 2024 Pro ER or 2024 Flash?

    Hi All, I could use your input to help deciding between these 3 options. I have to say I'm attracted to the Pro because I prefer knobs over a touch screen for heating/cooling, etc. I will tow building materials over one season but then would probably not have much of a need for towing over the...
  11. Garage too small. Anyone park outside? In the snow?

    I'm considering purchasing a Lightning, but my garage is a few inches too small. I could park it on the pad next to the garage and have the charger installed outside, but I live in MN. There will be snow to deal with. I wonder if anyone else has had to do this. Any comments on the experience...
  12. What is more valuable, dual chargers or heat pump for a MN driver?

    I'm considering buying a Lightning, and am torn between the 2023 and 2024. I live in MN where winters can get quite cold, so the heat pump available in the 2024 sounds like it will help to retain range in the colder temperatures. I've read in the forums that dual onboard AC chargers were removed...
