Yeah they need to get the pricing right. They needed to do that with the BEV trucks too, but they didn't...

The goal isn't to convince BEV users, it's to convince current gasoline drivers. Anecdotally but in person people seem to like the idea of hybrids and range anxiety with EVs is very common. Personally if they put a decent amount of batteries in it so that it can go 100-150 miles on pure...

No. If I towed a camper long distance maybe but I don't do that, and I don't mind charging during road trips, just wish it charged a bit faster.

I was planning on using my lightning till I can't anymore, just really hope nothing sudden happens to it and it's hard to get another.. glad I'll have the best frunk in any EV, if worse comes to shove I guess there's always the Silverado/Sierra EV...

It does not tell you "nothing", hyperbolic much? I will continue to use it on my 24 with my Android auto integration to make sure it arrives at the charger preconditioned. So far since that update I've had great speeds each time I navigated to a charger whereas before the update it was really...

Okay, misunderstood the intent of the question then. I care more to know that it will be preconditioned when I get there, not when it actually starts to "precondition"

Umm yes? If you're using Android auto with percentage, and see the charging icon, that's a good indicator it will be preconditioning. If you perhaps accidentally set it to the parking lot or the Walmart instead of the EA, you won't see the charge stop icon and hence it won't precondition...

It should already be here. A good indicator is in the driver small screen the destination shows a charging icon

DC power supply connected to a "grid tied inverter"

Nice. I found a way to integrate my powerwalls with the lightning in case it's needed. Feels good, hopefully I don't need to use it soon.

Thunder

Got this too. I had signed up for a month in September and it expired recently, so that's nice. It was close to worthless on my road trip but at least it works 95% of the time on my commute

I have powerwalls and in less than a decade they'll pay for themselves thanks to exporting during peak hours and 1:1 net metering. I love the idea of your vehicle making you passive money as well while parked. How cool is that. Hopefully it becomes more mainstream.

#3 can be disabled yes. Silly "feature" btw. Great way to initially learn of it when attempting to get a quick nap in the backseat....

I noticed this too recently but I think once you start driving it turns on.

Nice, are you just hooking it up to the generator port?

What solar inverter do you have?

Navigating to a charger stop in Android auto will supposedly preconditon the battery. I don't know if anyone has tested it to verify for sure.

I just had to try it 😁 2x 12v 300ah batteries and a 6000w 240v inverter. It added 4.5% range (the home assistant integration / ford API gives percentage in 0.5% increments.) This is not something I plan on doing often, but it's nice that I can if I want to drain the batteries quickly or to...

Got it done. Someone on reddit shared this manual and it was very helpful. Uploading here.
