Nema 14-50 and 5-15, 50 amps and 15 amps for the mobile charger. I also got a 30 amp adapter and an J1772 to tesla adapter, but those are supposedly only going out with the first deliveries. ER will also get the Pro Charger from sunrun included.
They were all Electrify America 350 Kw max. My Lightning topped out at 162 Kw and fluctuated between 158-162 at top speed. It stayed pretty close to that up to 50% SoC.
I got an email to confirm my address last month when the truck went into production, but nothing recently. I think it just shipped though as I got an email from FedEx that I have a package coming on Tuesday and I wasn’t expecting anything. Sender only says it’s from Distribution Center, so...
We do a trip from Maryland to Maine every August, which is about 500 miles over 2 days. We’ve been doing it in an EV for the last 3 years with no problem. We stop somewhere in New Jersey to charge and then charge at a hotel overnight in Connecticut. Day 2 we could make it to the campground in...
I’m specifically speaking about the electric vehicle experience, which includes charging, as I would compare the experience filling any gas or diesel vehicle with respect to range and distance between filling stations.
I disagree, both server the same purpose, which is to move people and stuff from one place to another. They just come in different form factors. The Lightning provides more cargo and towing capabilities, but they still have the same fundamental characteristics. It doesn’t matter if you are...
I have the max tow package, so I believe they are all limited to 160 Kw, but I’m hoping the increase the limit through software updates as the refine the charging algorithm. It handed 160 kw well even in the heat with 600 miles in a day. They should be able to bump it up with the hardware that’s...
Yeah, those are the factory rubber floor mats. I got them without the carpet ones.
That's just some dirt I got in the seatbelt mount while I was crawling around back there. A little water and the scuff marks came right off. That bracket is powder coated, so it would be really hard to scratch it.
I picked up my Lightning Lariat ER from Granger on Monday and drove it 1100 miles home. Here are might thoughts after 2 days with it.
First off Granger is a great dealer and everyone there is awesome. Thank you!
Updated to add Charge summaries.
Overall, it is a great truck.

I just picked up my Lightning from Granger on Monday. They had 2 come on the first shipment, the other one was delivered on Saturday. They said that these 2 were about half they're allocation, so I guess 4 or 5 sounds right and I think they are also getting 2 mannequins, which haven't arrived...
