  1. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    I found this. Evidently a fan does exist. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/wireless-charger-changed-for-2023.15481/post-318389
  2. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    Me too. My 2024 Lariat overheats so much, it's practically useless. That's why I'm curious if it's only Platinums.
  3. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    I think this is just for platinums? Can anyone verify?
  4. Am I charging to the maximum capacity of the battery and using the buffer?

    I respectfully disagree. It's an NMC battery and so the delta in voltage readings should be good enough to be within +/- 5%. 10% inaccuracy seems excessive because in the case of this vehicle, it can be the difference between being towed and not towed. But most importantly, posting this...
  5. Am I charging to the maximum capacity of the battery and using the buffer?

    I’ll hopefully report back in 9 days how the re-calibration goes. I only consume about 10% per day.
  6. Am I charging to the maximum capacity of the battery and using the buffer?

    Sorry if I’m not writing clearly… My real question is why am I delivering 111kWh to charge the battery 68% (from 32-100)? That would imply I have a max capacity of 163 kWh. That doesn’t seem likely, so the next most likely problem is my state of charge reading is incorrect when I started at 32%.
  7. Am I charging to the maximum capacity of the battery and using the buffer?

    104 kWh delivered per the Chargepoint EVSE. So I’m led to believe that the Ford app is accurate. The question is why was the Lightning reading 32% state of charge but then allowed the truck to add 111 kWh of capacity? This suggests that the entire battery is somehow 163 kWh instead of 143?
  8. Am I charging to the maximum capacity of the battery and using the buffer?

    So I charged to 100% on my 2024 Lariat which reportedly has a usable capacity of 131kWh and supposedly 143 kWh of actual physical capacity. Did the software get glitchy and charge the entire capacity of the battery? My Chargepoint EVSE correlates with the Ford’s readings.
  9. F-150 Lightning September 2024 Sales: 1,686 -- Up 104.5% in Q3

    Don’t think so. I think 80% of the population has any idea the Lightning exists as an entity. The number of people who comment on the truck when I open the frunk tells me everyone thinks it’s a regular truck (ICE or hybrid).
  10. BlueCruise Pricing Lowered For Both Annual & Monthly Fees

    I agree that you should never buy it anything based on the premise of future functions. That being said, a subscription is an entirely different product with what I perceive to be different end goals. I buy a subscription with an expectation that 1) my ownership is finite because 2) the...
  11. Wireless Charging Pad - Ford, you can do better

    I have a 24 Lariat. Never have heard a fan go off. I’ve looked at the pad and there is no fan underneath the rubber mat. Can we see photos of your fan? I think it’s only passive cooling.
  12. Wireless Charging Pad - Ford, you can do better

    Porsche figured it out for the Macan EV. Ford can figure it out too.
  13. BlueCruise Pricing Lowered For Both Annual & Monthly Fees

    There should be some kinda guarantee about what blue cruise software version we will be getting at minimum (at least 1.4 for 2024 owners, etc) before asking us to fork over money for a subscription. Otherwise, if we're not getting updates, why are we paying for the service?
  14. Is Anybody Happy With Their Lightning?

    My in laws live 260 miles away with the nearest charging about 50 miles away. No 240 in their garage. We only go once every 3-4 months, so we just use our ICE. Again, depends on use cases and how quickly you’re needing the driving range.
