Glad you made it! It does seem crazy that most of the companies that make DCFC’s have so many issues but Tesla does not seem to?

I understand where you’re coming from being in Minnesota, it may not have worked for you but you cannot really compare a Maverick to a Lightning. I was driving an Expedition, EL and started looking at the Maverick hybrid because I was getting 16 or 17 miles per gallon and was tired of it, 40ish...

Here is an interesting article that was very recently posted on insideevs.com: https://insideevs.com/features/703378/how-cold-affects-electric-vehicles/

If you truly had OCD, you would call it CDO!:wink:

I have only noticed a .1 mi/kWh difference between the dash and iPad screens! Do others see more than this difference?

Speak for yourself!🤣😂🤣 The cold is good to visit, but not to live in IMHO! You probably feel the same about the heat!

That is a great deal! I hope you love yours as much as I love mine! What year? Did you get the Tesla NACS adapter with your purchase? If you did not and drive long distances/road trip I would recommend getting one!

So this is slightly off-topic, but not entirely! I truly think you have to look at the whole picture regarding Tesla/musk. This is a fairly good article talking about how much money the government has directly and indirectly given to the company/him...

That must be the Bucees in Temple. They also have some on the Mercedes-Benz charging network I believe. I used the superchargers there end of September. It shows Tesla 68 stalls and Mercedes-Benz 8! That is laughable.

I think lower thermal stability comment had more to do with the way our battery packs are made or the difference between them and the battery cells/packs from other manufacturers. I.e. Ford packs versus GM packs or Tesla, etc.

I read this twice as well, even though this is well out of my wheelhouse (so far out that I am in a rowboat and you are in a rocket😂🤣😂)and I think you overall nailed it except for maybe this one thing he said @MickeyAO said: “On the side, I ran my own test cycling between 80% (actual so 85% SOC...

Congratulations on your second retirement! Thank you for your service! Thank you for providing us any and all of the information that you are able to!

Personally, I love my 23 lariat ER and will drive it until the wheels fall off unless when the next gen (T3 ?)truck comes out It is just too much better that I just can’t resist!

I’m glad the man is here to help! Obviously, that would be you😂🤣😂

That must be where I remember the 50% from! So for a couple of weeks it doesn’t matter??

I believe best practices is to store it at 50% or less for how long I have no idea. Perhaps someone with better information will post.

I always thought we should have like a thunderstorm sound option!

I think the electric motors produce a minimal sound under heavy acceleration! That is something a friend told me because I drive mine only on Sunday to church.🤣😂🤣

The “fiber”material on the front fender wells is quite thick. I have sprayed mine off at my car wash ”pressure washed” many times with no issues.

That is a tough one! I installed my FCSP so I could have the 80 amp charging after receiving it in April. I installed solar with a powerwall 3 in July. I would hope that someday I would be able to use the lightning as an additional battery but I am not going to purchase the HIS unless they make...
