Take a pic of your wheel and post it here. I have my leather take-off wheel that's pretty much new that should be a direct replacement. Less than half of that cost. The wheels are pretty easy to swap.
Things aren't going to get better economically and patience will pay off. Wait until tesla's lego truck releases and pulls what little wind remains from the lightning's sail. I'd wait around until ~Nov and see if ordering one for a ~Jan purchase date when the at-dealer rebate takes hold, if...
Tesla will float the price as high as they can for as long as they can. Their pricing is based solely on their ability to sell what they can produce. If they need 5 price drops in 6 months, they'll do it. They're cut-throat at this game. They're going to produce premium higher trims as much...
With more and more vehicles starting to add 120v 20a circuits, seems there's an expanding market to put some real power into a compressor for vehicles. If something like this unit here was able to lock into one of the ford bed accessory things with an optimized design, it'd be killer...
AC compressor. They're noisy. My MME's is noisier than my PB's
Ford changed the MME's logic so that it doesn't even run full speed while stopped to try and hide it. As I speed up it ramps up in speed, as I slow down it slows down. 100% due to being noisy as hell. I need to find out which...
The prices on these ESPs are nuts considering what it doesn't cover --
Batteries and high voltage cabling are not covered. The drivetrain / batt are covered by a 8yr / 100k. None of the literature ford provides says anything about inverters / motors / etc...
The only reason I bothered...
It's not a matter of opinion. That's like saying it's opinion that transmission fluid and engine oil are different products entirely. For less mass, a unified structure of significantly higher strength can be had. Easily 3-4x the torsional strength. I'm not talking a ridgeline competitor...
This class of truck doesn't need a discrete frame. How many people pull their 150's bed off for an alternative? Zero. I'll take a stronger package vs wasted mass. Body on frame is a result of incompetent engineering, not unicorn design. The cybertruck isn't in the 150's class because it...
If they're smart about it, it won't share the F150's body, though will be inspired by it / share design cues. Shrink the frontal area putting it into bed length instead. 6.5' bed, OAL at 19' 7". Monocoque w/ structural LMFP battery in flavors of 350 and 500 mile EPA ranges at ~800v.
10kW+ V2x...
Personally I'd hold off given in 2024 the tax credit happens at POS. Between continued economic woes and stagnation in general, Nov is the earliest I'd fire off an order. Especially with boxy truck about to start getting delivered. The deals will only get better.
That's not how it works. The ground serves as a redundant neutral for breaker pop, and a path for lightning. The 'best' bypass for this outside of code is to 1) Label a cord as "floating ground" or "Not Grounded", 2) disconnect the ground wire from the cord itself as close to the structure's...
Yeah, I've got a powerboost as well, I installed an LFP aux batt and more than fixed my 12v woes. Until the logic change in the MME, my sync was continuously sleeping.
While charging, you should find it charging the 12v batt as the cooling pumps run. Is your software up to date? Ford revamped the MME that even a parasitic 12v draw w/ HVB above ~10% or greater, the DCDC turns on to charge the 12v system as needed. If the issue is persistent the 12v AGM...
That's not true for the most part. At all points it's adding about double range per minute than 400v architectures. The battery is ~2x the size which keeps its C rate about the same. So the GM platform should get just under double the range per minute of charge. That's where these monster...
Curious how yours is wired up. If your box is rated for 200a and you have 40 or 50a of solar coming into the panel, the main breaker must be reduced by the same to account for the additional load. If it's all in the same panel, you should have a 150a OCP on it, not leaving much headroom for...
