Here is one for you gurus. My Lightning routine is as consistent as it can get. Commute is the same each day. From home to office. Same route everyday.
I charge at the office with a class 2 charger. The wind and temperature is about the same each day. Yet when I plug in at the office...
Okay you Lightning Wizards, The tire pressure warning keeps telling me I have a front right tire problem. It shows the same pressure as the other three tires and the pressure changes equally on all four tires as the temps increase. I suspect it could be fixed by disconnecting the accessory...
Okay you Gurus, I know you got the answer. I got the same type of charger at home as I do at the office. At home I peak charge at 17+ KW but at the office I always peak charge at 14.6 KW. Exactly the same type of charger. Why the difference?
Who can say? I will use it until the operating costs become excessive. That may be at 100K miles or further. I kept my last F150 to 270K and traded only because the suspension was wearing out and the cost to replace was greater than the value of the truck.
Then again, something really cool...
I am sure this is something that has already been discussed but I can't help but post due to cost. Broke rear tailight (drivers side) (my fault). Called dealers for cost and availability. Availability 24 hours. Cost $2400 (American dollars!!!!) Wow!! Be very, careful!!
For the same reason as you, I purchased the extended warranty on the battery and truck. The price was well worth the piece of mind it'll bring in those miles over 100K.
I completely understand your point of view. That being said, I calculated that based on gas prices in my area (central Texas) I will have saved 15K at 100K miles. With a decent trade in It will be a win, win. I really like it when something works out emotionally and financially. I...
As long as Ford does not abandon/discontinue the Lightning model I am okay with any other changes or plans they make for EV's. If they discontinue the Lightning it will mean a big reduction in trade or resale value. That makes would make my purchase of it a bad decision. The truck is great...
A question to you gurus, I have noted that sometimes when I am using the Traveling Charger and have it plugged to a 240V outlet it will charge at varying rates ranging from 5KW to 2KW. That I can understand but my question is why is the blue line on the charger sow a partial orange? I say...
Two things. From time to time, I want to change the charge level. The I can change it on the app but the truck charges to the previous level. I was told I could do that on the screen. Second thing, I was told I could check the battery health.
Since the Ford Pass App is frequently unresponsive, I was told that the place to go to is the Sync screen in the truck. So does someone have the navigation map to get to that screen using the small truck screen, not the large screen?
So, yesterday, I planned a long trip for today. I went to the new Fordpass App then to "target charge level" moved it from 80% to 100% clicked save and it acted like it was saving it but it would not. Every time it would revert back to 80%.
Because I knew that I would need it all, I kept...
