Happened just a minute or two before I posted that. I tried to go to the main forum page from reading a private message. I refreshed and then it loaded. I'll let you know/ screenshot it if it happens again.
I think Ford is positioning something that is going to go head to head with the new Tesla low-cost EV, which is a stripped-down and streamlined Model Y.
Cheap crappy dash cams are pretty much all the same it seems. Here and there a company will pop up using a newer camera sensor or processor and they make some big deal out of it.. But it's just they're the first to us the components which everyone else will be using within weeks as they all...
I've posted about it elsewhere on the forum. I bought and installed the FitcamX with rear camera in my Lightning. It died when just barely past the warranty window. Support was not very helpful, they did give me a discount code off a new one -- which wasn't a great deal, not as good as their...
It seems they're in Parker, CO... Not too far from me. Will have to check them out the next time I'm out that way. Or within the next few days if my wife sees this. She will drive 100 miles to try a new coffee shop and with books involved, I might just have to leave her there.
New In Box, Ford Charge Station Pro.
Would prefer local meet-up -- Denver Metro area, but can ship. It's still in the brown shipping box from Ford so have not opened it. Looking for $450.
Yeah, you're right about that. I was just saying that the home backup system, assuming it can even be made to work, would be the only reason I would recommend getting the Ford Charge Station Pro. It's really not a great charger and it's problematic when you want to charge vehicles without a...
The Ford Charge Station Pro of course does 80A output and it's an OK charger, but has some quirks. I actually have one new in box I'm looking to sell, but I'm going to tell you that you should actually look at other options. The only time I recommend the Ford Charge Station Pro is if you plan...
People absolutely do not recognize the backup sound, nor associate it with the truck. I have more people walking behind me backing up in this truck than just about anything I've ever owned. Then again, people would step in front of my diesel F-350 all the time or walk behind it as well...
I'm having a Grizzl-e Duo being delivered today!
We have been sharing a Tesla charger (on 50A circuit) between the Lightning and Model Y. Sold the Y a few weeks back and have a Mach-E coming soon. I wanted to upgrade the circuit to 60A or better and do two load-balanced chargers but our...
Yeah, Ford realized they need the inventory at the dealerships and where they're visible to customers trying to shop local dealer inventory. I think sales numbers were already showing Ford that people still want EVs, regardless of the ebb and flow of our political environment. And Ford just...
OP, or anyone else looking, I have a new in box Charge Station Pro for sale as well. Will also do $450 shipped (CONUS). Pictures on request as it would be an unboxing...
I'd say they have production right where it needs to be, maybe a bit below ideal. Sales are up, they just had their best quarter ever for EV sales, Lightning included. inventory is low everywhere, many areas have none as the 2025s are making their way there.
Charging from the Lightning would be awkward. If the Volvo lets you set the charge rate to 24A or less, you could charge from the 30A outlet I the bed of the Lightning (if you have the 9.6kW Pro Power). You'd have to pick up the right plug adapter, some RV/ Camper places have quirky adapters...
...Yeah, but being on my second FitCamX, I will say that it's still far from perfect. Video quality is just OK, on par with any of the decent dashcams out there as they're all just potatoes anyway. Date/time never matches up because it preserves nothing other than static settings when the...
Discount Tire has always treated me well. The location close to me closed down a couple years ago so I've used a new Les Schwab location twice now to patch tires (no charge both times) and once for a new set of tires on another vehicle. They've been great and the guy managing it is super nice...
