  1. Ford removing Public Charging app from Lightning!!

    The reality is how the app was implemented it was less useful to the masses. Most either ready use ABRP or PlugShare. Then in route often what was baked into Android Auto or CarPlay. Then those that used the navigation, sometimes used that. While driving, I never found it useful to use a Ford...
  2. Not a single "not true", except from Brian, not AI...

    I think that is an obvious direction they are considering for sure. I think they may also be thinking of should they trim it back and offer a public version so they can still offer a fleet version. While my specific department doesn’t need one at the cost, they do have a nice use case even...
  3. Rooftop Camping Setup -- Naturnest RTT

    I have a two bike hitch rack that I use. As I also haul my kayaks, I am considering installing a single bike “roof rack” on to the cross bars holding the tent. That way I can leave the kayaks in the bed when it is just me, or doing twin “roof” bike racks.
  4. Rooftop Camping Setup -- Naturnest RTT

    Not really any issues just things to be aware of. Like obviously when backing into a tight place the warning system does not account for that projections.. The other is I have 29” mountain bikes and you have to be careful with what racks you can use since there is that projection. Otherwise I...
  5. SOC % dropping as soon as I turn truck on

    Do you have an OBDII scanner? Watch the pack voltage and kWh rating. Remember that the percentage on the dash is a guess by the BMS, so say it thinks you are at 80.01 and drop to 79.99, then it will go down, but little energy left the pack. The second consideration is now that temps are...
  6. What to buy with FordPass Points?

    They moved to that model a few years ago.
  7. What to buy with FordPass Points?

    I picked up an additional Ford branded NACS adapter. That seemed like a good option, plus I can sell it for some cash if I never need it.
  8. Trading XLT SR TO ER

    You realize this was like 18 months ago and the Ramcharger wasn’t even a thing? 😬🤷‍♂️
  9. 🙋‍♂️ What Did You Do To Your Lightning Today?

    Sorry for the delay. 10” from the camera to the back handle of the tent. Very doable and doesn’t impact much.
  10. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    The biggest question is how is charging in your location and the paths to the places you will take it. If you have great charging infrastructure do the SR and skip the ER. I know as an ER owner, I could have lived with the SR for most of our adventures, but a 1/3 of Oregon has no chargers so...
  11. Its been quiet...

    I just got another update on Friday…..😉😊
  12. Early access program- anywhere for members to chat about features?

    Yeah that is one issue with the program. My understanding is there is not enough communication from ford about the new “features” so those people are left guessing if a feature is a feature or a glitch. Would be great for Ford to have that type of forums you referenced. Maybe even a private...
  13. Contacted by my dealer to schedule BMS update

    Were you out of warranty too? Seems odd you had to pay out of pocket in either case. ?‍♂️
  14. Paint on mirrors and grill flaking

    Mine doesn’t have these problems…another WIN for the XLT class ??
  15. Raising tailgate by hand?

    I will add that I often close mine by hand cause I forgot I bought a princess truck. The only thing I have noticed it it seems the computer forgets it is closed sometimes and when I do use one of the various buttons to open it, it “latches” it first then you have to press again to have the...
  16. Charging

    Hey Steve, For us to really help we need to know which pack size, you average mpkW average, speed, and climate. all or those variables impact your range.
