It's been said before, Ford purposely trims the range down based off outside conditions. This was done because folks would freak out that they started a trip at 320 miles of range and couldn't make it 200.
Your truck is more than capable of doing greater than 300 even in the cold. It requires...
I'm glad I was able to purchase and register my truck in a non front plate state. Even though I've moved since, I maintain my residency there which means I get to keep it. Not going to lie, I feel much smugness driving around California and having the front of my truck be clean. Plus Florida...
I also did a recent road trip with 1.4 but most of it was the hands on variant. I noticed that the truck now gives you a heads up it's going to slow for an upcoming turn. Right above the speed limit I could see a turn icon. Flip side is the truck would brake laughably early (500-1000ft) prior to...
I've never looked, does Fordpass indicate a door open? Or send a notification if a door has been left open for greater than 30 min? I feel like that would be useful to know.
These vehicles look so cool but 2027 is a long time away in what feels like a tougher environment for EVs and New EV companies at that. Fingers crossed.
I think this is expected behavior. If I try to start the truck with the frunk moving, it will stop and require another command. I imagine it has something to do with the 'ignition' circuit causing power to stop momentarily to the frunk.
As for the OP, it makes me think that possibly your 12V...
I'm a Dec '22 build date MY23 truck, got the update last week. Tried it out this morning and it was fine. The highways here in the California high desert are all pretty awful especially CA-14. It didn't seem to bias much for big trucks, but that could be a setting issue. It did turn off my speed...
I switched to iPhone from Android back in September and this issue has been plaguing me. Half the time I get no audio and have to reboot sync. Sometimes if I initiate a call from Carplay I have no audio and have to pull my phone out and cycle it to speaker to hear.
For all that I love about...
One of the biggest reasons why I put a deposit down. It's roughly the same size, has some cool styling options, seems to have Rivians solid UI, much improved charging, and by the time I could buy it I'll have paid my lightning off. I like my truck but the more time passes without news about T3...
I would check that the 12V is connected correctly. From others experiences here, if the 12V gets loose you get pandoras box of weird faults related to iffy power.
I also treat every stop sign as a drag race (up to the speed limit) and I like to do 70 - 75 on the highway but 1.4 is pretty dang low. I wouldn't bank on that being typical, at least is hasn't been for me unless I was driving up hill with wind. I would say 1.7 or so would make more sense and...
I also bought an extended warranty to cover me for the duration of the existing battery one. It's a new truck with new parts, if my frunk / big screen / any combo of lights / powered tailgate has issues, it's nice knowing I can have it fixed without breaking the bank.
Specifically, the big...
I stopped at a Tesla site in Mojave and charged just fine a few weeks ago. Used plug n charge and my A2Z adapter.
Edit: Specifically it was labor day weekend and later at night
I'd be curious if state of charge would hook one of these up, I think they own their own DC chargers. Would be a very interesting test to evaluate heat over a half hour. I wouldn't want to plug it into a vehicle though, for risk reasons, but the equipment to bench test is also probably...
Coming up on two years of ownership and 30k miles. It's a fantastic truck. EVs make sense if it fits your use case, for me, it did, and it's been a great time. I've drove 2k mile road trips, taken it off the beaten path in the desert (quite frequently these days), I've put it through its paces...
On the topic of not being able to maintain speed going downhill, I did multiple legs at 7% grade downhill with 2000+ lbs of stuff in the truck and I never once maintained over my set 65 mph. Maybe a slight overshoot but it would correct back.
If your truck can't maintain its speed going...
I have to imagine it is this. When the truck starts vibrating and I'm also turning it's more likely to pop up.
On my drive out into the desert today I just offset the tire tracks with ruts and it went a lot smoother. No pop up faults either. I've taken the truck into some rough terrain a few...
I've noticed that when I spend time on dirt roads here, especially ones in rougher condition that are more washboard than road, I get a "Steering Assist Fault" momentarily. It disappears almost immediately before I can acknowledge it and it doesn't show up in Ford Pass as an error. The truck...
