  1. Console to Steering Column Shifter Conversion - $800 Pre-Order

    I like the idea of the console shifter above all other options. I get it is just an electrical signal, but tactically it just feels nice. That said I despise having a complex mechanical powered system just to send a simple electrical signal, especially one that has proven itself to be failure...
  2. Android update seriously borks usability

    Thats brutal. Make sure to leave feedback, they shoukd be able to pin it down to android version or some other issue.
  3. Slight Reduction In Acceleration. Has Anyone Else Experienced This Issue.

    Its the feeling of reduced acceleration that finally convinced me to implement continious logging in the truck. So now it logs about 40 parameters, including accelerometer data, during every drive. Sadly I dont have these from before I felt like acceleration was changed. Sadly i doubt many will...
  4. EV motor maintenance? Gear fluid change? When?

    You were the one who made it about differentials. Prior to that the discussion mentioned transmissions and motors, not differentials.
  5. Infrared pics of heated steering wheel and driver's seat (2024 Lightning Flash)

    Also check out the infraray p2 line
  6. How does cabin heating work?

    Fwiw the truck does have an interior humidity sensor.
  7. How does cabin heating work?

    The only thing I would say is that for the heat pump trucks the "AC" compressor will run, as will the exterior fan when making heat. For the resistive heater there will be no sound at all. I'm not saying those are loud or unusual, just that there is no sound at all with the older trucks. Edit...
  8. How does cabin heating work?

    I don't think i have ever had to turn it on. I have checked it once or twice, but thats about it.
  9. How does cabin heating work?

    Those things are not opposite or contrary. The truck warming up the cabin and the efficiency of a heat pump are two different things. That only came up in response to your question. Back to your original question. I dont know if anyone will have a good answer. Some are happy with theirs...
  10. How does cabin heating work?

    Efficiency. Heat pumps are MUCH more efficient at making heat in most weather conditions. That can change in VERY cold environments (aka our friends to the way way north. Not your climate)
  11. EV motor maintenance? Gear fluid change? When?

    As he said though it doesn't have the heat of the motor (or torque converter) to really tear up the fluid. It may get warm (I have seen 140f) but fluids handle pretty warm temps well, even significantly higher than that wont break down the fluid. In differentials they may be exposed to more...
  12. How does cabin heating work?

    There has been a fair bit of discussion on heat and defrost and I wish I could remember it well enough to recap. Put simply, there is a lot of disagreement as to if it works well, or doesn't. I have seen some say they have to enable heat to get it to warm up. Others have complained about the...
  13. Slight Reduction In Acceleration. Has Anyone Else Experienced This Issue.

    If you think the issue was in saying "your tripping" then that is part of the problem. And gaslighting the conversation to be about hurt feelings isnt any better. I dont know if its a sense of victory by marganilizing others or if its a lack of social skills but that was some childish garbage...
  14. Auto-off Headlights

    To be honest, doesnt it do this already? Next question, are you turning your headlights off? I never touch any switches in mine. All lights, including the headlights, just turn off automatically after a few minutes.
  15. What type of OBD-II Scanner and what App Z for the Lightning

    Carscanner is good and has a great selection of PIDs to use. My only issue with it is logging (and I find editing the screens annoying) I like the Torque app but it has its downsides. The nice thing for torque, and really the only reason I use it, is that logs are written to available storage...
  16. Pre-Purchase Guidance and Thinking Points

    SOME are made for continuous heavy use, others are not. Make sure you have the right one. A hard wired charger is better if you can. You may even be able to use that exact wiring (ensuring current is set correctly).
  17. Slight Reduction In Acceleration. Has Anyone Else Experienced This Issue.

    I would not imagine that Ford did a bait and switch. However I can possibly see Ford sending out an update that limits current. This may be to protect the battery, or IMO more likely done in order to help protect the high voltage contactor. Its not a common issue here (although not unheard...
  18. FordPass PPO menu this is new right?

    I signed up to be part of the EAP, never heard anything back. A few weeks ago I recieved a survey as part of the eap, I have no idea what it was for.....
  19. Trailer range anybody?

    There is a towing efficiency thread active right now, that may be your best bet. 150-160 is well over 1.0mi/kwh . That may be tough if you are wanting to do highway speeds
  20. Slight Reduction In Acceleration. Has Anyone Else Experienced This Issue.

    Someone else made mention of this fairly recently too. I feel the same way, that acceleration just isnt quite what it was before. But maybe I'm just more used to it.
