I would drive a Rivian, but new is too expensive, used might be an option, but the nearest service center is 200 miles away. Then there are many innovative things about the G n 1 R1T, that just looks like $$$ to keep up. Lastly R15 has two 12V batteries that ARE NOT EASY TO CHANGE. Cost about...

I'll give them the benefit of doubt, as they are starting from Zero and launching hundreds to possibly a thousand or more sites at once. Not surprising a detail like that could be missed, as this is farrrr less critical than literally thousands of other items. Big positive is they are changing...

It has been for some time

As for the cables on the wrong side, they have publicly stat they will be switching those around in the coming months. Also adding credit card readers, which are already active at some locations.

Yeap, this is pretty much what I expected from Fords 10 year "commitment". Worth as much as the paper it was written on in my phone. I.e. there is no paper in my phone that I'm writing this on.....

Another reason not to want that vehicle. I'm not an Apple fan. Too restrictive.

Crashes???? I thought they looked for people that are isolated on at least 5 acres so as not to have witnesses of their abductions and probing.

Thanks Branden. Looks like I need to come up with a chilling method for my adaptor.

There is some truth to this, but it's also true that they deliberately make it increasingly harder to fix than it has to be, also holding back technical information on how things work, and how to fix them, teing parts together unnecessarily, in an effort to restrict options. In essence, creat a...

Would say it's worth doing a legal consultation, but there is probably a abitration clause where you get screwed. sounding increasingly like ESP is basically worthless, just free money for Ford.

I don't pay much attention. Just a gauge as to how my truck is liking its environment. The other thing when getting your maximum estimates in summer, it provides a crude gauge of batter SOH outside of the OBD port values. I almost always charge to 80%, and typically will see 220 miles plus or...

I was acknowledging pointing out that it all assumes accurate numbers before and after whatever has changed.

I want to make it clear. Using OBD scanner, I'm NOT seeing an increase in reported capacity. But we know there has to be degradation that is hidden, but we don't know how much and how it's managed, but it MUST be there. Otherwise we would see degradation in range and measured capacity. Assuming...

That's not it at all. You missed the part that I have done this same drive MANY times through the hills of NW Arkansas, and have never gotten this. Same thing is happening in my weekly commute. Also no changes especially with school being out. I CERTAINLY haven't slowed down on routes I have...

Just a bit amused. Charged to 100% last night as I was doing a longer drive today. Got in this morning and my Lightning was feeling it's electron volts and decided it was a LR. This is actually the highest meaningless number I have seen, but though I have been getting 235 estimated range at 80%...

Oh the batteries have improved (very fast charging speed), we just can't have them in the US.

Also be aware, that many dealers will leave listings on 3rd party sites LONG after they are sold. So it may be listed for 268 days, but they have not had the truck for 6 months. They do this to try to bait you to come to the dealership, so they can try to switch you to something else. 3rd party...

The 24 XLT for sure will be SR. Ford discontinued the big battery for XLT after the 23's. Flash took that spot. Look at the VIN number on the 23 Lariat. At about the 8-9th digit you will see either "EL" or "EV". EL=Standard Range; EV=Long Range. This only works for 22 and 23 model years.

With all the recalls from Fords vehicles, both gas and electric, it's scarry as hell to think what likely to come out of the fast track cramping both and the complexity of intergrating them into one Truck. It's not like their track record has been improving at all. Bean counters and corner...

Yikes!
