  1. Texas OEM Ford/Tesla NACS to CCS1 Charging Adapter - $200

    After many delays, my Ford adapter arrived... right after I traded the truck. This is the OEM adapter offered by Ford. It is brand new, comes in its original packaging, and has not been used. I am in the Austin, TX (far north) area and can meet locally; potentially in the central TX region. Let...
  2. Averaging 1.5 mi/kwh @ 32 degrees down from 1.8 mi/kwh last year.

    Your mi/kW seems pretty normal for those temps. Similar to what i was getting last winter when I was in KY. I'd be surprised to hear you were getting 1.8 at hwy speeds at similar temps. I was barely getting over 1.8 in warm weather at highway speeds.
  3. Charge Station EV conversion to $4.50 per gallon @18mpg

    Yeesh… regulating product costs? “Make money, but not a fortune”? How do you decide what a “fortune” is? For a second there I tripped and fell into a socialist chat. I’ll tell you what. If I was in BFE and had to pay $1 kW/h to get 350kW/hr service vs discounted wall outlet or 60kW/hr service...
  4. Tesla Superchargers in Ford NAV screen gone

    That's great! I read your post to imply that the CT's had a demand problem, I must have misunderstood you.
  5. Tesla Superchargers in Ford NAV screen gone

    Mine never populated them when I had a Lightning. @Jasper7821 How much are you selling your CT for? Anyone can go out and buy one now, so unless you're selling for under the current sticker price by a healthy amount; I doubt there will be takers. Sell the dual motor for $72k or less and I bet...
  6. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    I've got someone local who may buy for $600. Grizzl-e is leading the pack as a replacement, but had not read the reviews. If they're that bad, I may need to look some more. I wonder if there's a way to just have an 80amp plug hardwired? In other words, why is it not possible to do at 80amps what...
  7. Why a Day 1 Cybertruck reservation holder is getting a Lightning

    I'm a bit of a "cake and eat it too" guy. I wasn't going to switch to EV if I had to change my driving behavior. Also, I live in TX where 75% of the highways I utilize have speed limits of 75-85mph. Final bit that I'm often away from home in areas with limited charging options. Fortunately, I...
  8. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    Yes, it can. @mrau I actually hadn't thought of the adapter issue. I'll need to look into it. I may go wit the Grizzl-e 80amp. They want $699, not bad.
  9. Texas New In Box - 80AMP Ford Charging Station - Central TX

    Thanks for the interest, I just messaged you my location.
  10. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    I like the Tesla products, in fact when I had my Lightning I only charged off a Tesla mobile charger with the Lectron adapter. However, it looks like their wall unit maxes out at 48amps? Do they have an 80amp product? Now that I have a 205kw battery charge, I wouldn't mind something little...
  11. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    Would the Ford charger bi-directional aspect still work with non-Ford products?
  12. Texas Sold: New In Box - 80AMP Ford Charging Station - Central TX

    $599 I am selling the Ford Charging Station that was delivered to me after my Lightning purchase. I never got around to installing it, so it's still in the box. I only opened it to check out the items inside. At this time, local meet up only in Austin and surrounding areas. I may be able to...
  13. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    More good info! I guess you'll be seeing it in the classified ads. Probably better off passing it on. Regardless, I always used my external 50amp plug to charge my Lightning when I had it. So I can take my time and recoup some cost of my vehicle swap by selling.
  14. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    Thanks! This is exactly the type of feedback I was looking for.
  15. Keep 80AMP Ford Charge Station for non-Ford EV? (Not Installed Yet)

    I have an uninstalled Ford Charge Station with the 80AMP capability. I now have a GMC Sierra that I plan to keep for a while. I'm not sure whether I should sell this one and get a non vehicle manufacture (generic) 80 amp station for long term use, or whether this Ford one is fine in case I own...
  16. Taking the Politics Out of EVs

    I can relate with a lot of you being in oil and gas and getting questions about my truck. There's this weird defensiveness to them. Even though I'm a well known car enthusiast among coworkers, and they know it's not a purchase to burnish some kind of virtue signaling bonafides, and they know I...
  17. Would You Buy A Lightning Again?

    I keep considering it as I have figured out I miss the EV driving experience so much that I’m going to get back in. However, I swore I wouldn’t go back to dealing with range headaches. Lightnings “320” range wasn’t enough for me. If the Lightning would get 390+ miles of range I would. So for now...
  18. 1.4 kwh/mi on interstate…disappointed.

    Fern has a point, especially if he is primarily losing Tesla chargers. I have yet to find a Tesla charging location off a main interstate that is not functioning, and does not have an empty stall. But I guess that depends on where in the US you are located. Whether the time saved is worth it...
  19. Why a Day 1 Cybertruck reservation holder is getting a Lightning

    I'm still split, based on my experience, but agree that in the most practical sense the CT doesn't offer more overall for the price. The most disappointing thing to me with CT was the range, which was my major hangup with the extended range Lightning. They have similar ranges, and for that...
