Just saw this ad and wanted to ask since I am inheriting my parent's farm in central California. 1. How does a small business (farm) take advantage of this $7500 Pro offer from Ford? 2. What is a type 7 or D commercial fleet sale ? 3. Is there any other tax credits for a business (other than...

We drove to Yosemite on our summer trip 350 miles from So Calif as my wife had never visited. I spotted an official looking Yosemite NP Lightning in Yosemite valley near Camp Curry. 1st: Lightning has California plates and tags - not the US Govt plates. 2nd: Since there were no L3 DCFC in...

Ever since Tesla SC opened access to Ford EVs, I have switched over to Tesla ( with monthly subscription) 3 months ago. I also discontinued EVGo Plus membership 3 months ago. Now I get an email from EVGo wanting me to charge there again. Still can't get to an EVGo without passing by 2 or 3...

For sale: Lectron Vortex NACS-CCS adapter for Tesla Superchargers. This one was corrected after the NHTSA recall with the correct locking pin. Received 12 weeks after ordering. New in Box - never used. Don't hate the price, but it's a demand item in scarce supply that I waited for 3...

Saw this article and wondering if this might be one of the reasons EVs are not selling as quickly: https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-only-ev-worth-buying-right-now-charging-nacs-ccs-2023-7

I have a first minute reservation and am bummed that GM announced that the base EV WT will not be offered at $40K. Looks like they are citing chip shortages and increased costs from 2 years ago's announcement ? Your thoughts ...

Went to my independent for 10K maintenance (fluids, filters, lube, brake check, etc...) They pulled 2 OBD faults that they said I needed to follow up with Ford: Brake switch fault - brake pedal switch = never noticed any braking issues and no warnings on displays. Control module...

Just got notice from Auto Club So Cal (AAA/ACSC) about a discount for EVGo. I added to my EVGo AutoCharge + feature (just plug and charge - no app needed). I am in their plain "Pay As you Go" member. With AAA/ACSC I am saving $1 per charge session! Rates have now come down to $0.42/kWH...

Got this message from Ford Pass app. As of 5/15/23, SecuriAlert will be ending. Probably a good idea since it never worked right.

Does anyone know which rail line, date and where Ford vehicles were damaged in a fire and/or derailment ?

Email from Ford to accept new T&C for Early Access. Guessing they want to know if you still want to participate in future surveys ??

Just received from Ford. What are your thoughts on why one should join this data collection option ? Does it help Ford or someone else ?

Next week, Dept of Treasury (IRS) is going to rule on the battery sourcing / minerals / assembly. Based on other forum members' interpretations that Ford EVs may end up with half tax credit ($3750). Does this news sway anyone from completing their purchase after the IRS makes that ruling ...

https://www.silveradoevolution.com/forum/threads/2024-silverado-ev-wt-base-work-truck-42k-new-video.6545/ 1200lb payload, 8000lb tow, $42K base price. Available after RST rollout. Looking forward to the base EV WT for $42K since I got cheated out of the Lightning Pro & XLT trim.

Yesterday - for my once a week charging routine at home (L2), I plugged in and Ford Pass app said full charge will be the next day (36 hours). I found that odd as I normally charge fully after 4-5 hours. My charger app showed full rate (11kW) consistently for 4 hours (44kW). After 5 hours...

Has anyone been asked to participate in a survey from Sift Research out of San Clemente, CA ? I got invited via email and they pay $500 if I participate in an Automotive Market Research Study. They want to know: lifestyle, purchase preferences, activities, usage, with the Lightning. Powerpoint...

Hilarious videos for Superbowl released by GM:

So today I went to a Ford dealer to test drive one of many customer abandoned MME on the lot. Forgiving them for $10K ADM and $20K ADM on Lightnings; we got into a discussion on dealer profit with the sales manager. The sales manager said they make $1500-$2100 per EV they sell (Lightning or...

Saw this on my dealer's website at $41K and thought - wow ! At that window sticker price, is it a demo or customer refused ?

Just hit the newswire from IRS. Change in maximum MSRP to $80K instead of the original $55K. Means all MME are eligible for the full tax credit in 2023 but before March when the IRS rules. Combine the tax credit for the next month plus the new lower prices - makes it a good time to get an MME!
