That's a different tire. Is your earlier comment about efficiency talking about this tire pictured, or the ElectricDrive AT?

It accomplishes the same thing though. Turning on Pro Power Onboard is another way to disable the auto shutdown timer. Myself I just do the Settings -> Vehicle routine every time. But people can do whatever works for them of course

If I have a dog that I think might go in the front, I move the seats forward and recline them all the way forward so there's no front seat to go into. Luckily my own dog seems content to stay in the back. Knock on wood. But yeah. We've been rolling our eyes for years at the lack of a proper...

Not just beta testing. Maybe consult with people who actually use the trucks when designing features. The reserve limit in miles/km is just stupid and needs to die. Do it in battery % state of charge.

I forgive its general inaccuracy. But for the BMS state of charge estimate to drop from 5 or 6 percent directly to zero, Found On Road Dead, is kind of unforgivable. In my opinion. I don't care about the distance remaining; I can do that part myself. But the battery percent should not drop to...

I feel like if you are dissipating 1 kW (or 6 kW!!!) as heat in your wires, you have some bigger problems somewhere lol. (That 1 ohm number must be way too high.) The principle is sound of course. Higher current = higher power loss. BUT there is also fixed overhead to run pumps, fans etc. in...

Thanks. Good to know... with previous reports of this issue, I think the consensus was the BMS got confused by repeated DCFC earlier in the same day/drive cycle. But maybe that's a red herring, or your BMS got just as confused for some other unknown reason. End of the day. I will definitely be...

Had you done any DC fast charging earlier in the day?

Ooh, high voltage DC power. Another option I hadn't considered lol. That brings me to another rant. I wish Ford would open the API for the V2X port. Like how the FCSP communicates for the HIS. (Man that's a lot of letters.) Then third parties could step in and do a lot of cool stuff like that...

I wasn't really misinterpreting your post... just lamenting the lack of the proper simple solution for our trucks. I'm pretty sure I've complained about this before 😁 Yes I suppose a 240V high amp power supply for the winch would work too. But again, just like hydraulic, it'd be another...

Problem is that is toy capacity. Yes there are a few shop/lifting style 240V winches but they're all too small for a truck. The biggest I could see with a quick search is 3500 lb: https://prowinch.com/shop/3500-lb-industrial-electric-winch-moderate-duty-with-wire-rope-220-240v-175-ton That...

Wake me when someone makes a 240 volt winch that can plug into the bed outlet

It's only been 2 years (end Feb 2024), but your point stands lol.

25.8.5 should be the right one for the 2023 model year. 25.13.12 was for 2022s. According to the threads on those updates

It has driven me crazy from day one that the PPOB cutoff is in miles/km and not battery %. Stupidest design ever.

So many things in the app could be improved if they just included a timestamp of the event and/or last update. Then you would have some clues where the communication problems arise. The truck talks to Ford's servers through its cellular modem. The app also talks to the servers through the...

Do you use 1 pedal drive? Does this only happen when coming to or starting from a complete stop? On my truck, the hydraulic valve that controls pressure to/from the accumulator for the brakes makes a little squeak sort of noise. This happens at low speed when applying/releasing hydraulic...

The article doesn't specifically say. 🙄 I assume the Hummer and Silverado but the article also talks about the Sierra. And it's a two week extension of a pause already in effect, so not necessarily the end times just yet. Given the way oil prices are headed I wouldn't make any major cuts just...

2 winters here now charging outdoors in a northern climate and no issues with no cover. Snow just brushes off, and it's already water resistant enough for rain. Freezing rain would be the only concern for me; if that was forecast I'd throw a towel over it. But haven't had to so far. When I...

Biggest benefit is probably motivating the developer to keep it going. Won't hurt to throw some money their way once in a while. I suppose Rivian has deep pockets but in general that's how I look at software.
