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!

Watched a vid.today TFL Trucks. They did some visual analysis from spy shots, and they estimate that this new "truck" may be as much as 18" shorter than the Maverick, and perhaps only 62" wide. Also apparently even Ford is now calling is small in theirost recent references (read this on...

Soon.

I have used the MB chargers at the Buc-ee's in Springfield Mo. Worked fine. Used the CC reader. I actually avoid Tesla chargers when reasonable. Elmo has enough money.

Also, I'm pretty sure those sensors are ultrasonic. So a.close strike is going to fill the air with all sound frequencys, so that could have played a part as well. Settings off the ultrasonic proximity sensors.

Doesn't matter what we think. If that is what you love, and it's not going to cause you or anyone else financial difficulty in any way, then what do you work for? BUT, be through about the analysis. Are you going to want something else.badly in 2 years, but be tied down for 6 years.

IMHO, that is very close to what your going to see, with perhaps a smaller windows.

Actually my point was none of them can be trusted in the least. They are all adversaries as far as I'm concerned.

Oh you mean like Western car makers selling personal data, following your every action etc.

Also,.leaving your high voltage battery at dead for days is a really bad ideal. Also the 12V battery likely needs replaced as well. Then there is the fact you didn't authorize them using your truck for anything else. Not to mention your lost time. You are entitled to your be paid for your lost...

Back to the damage to the truck. Mine got.backed into and ended the bill for repairs was over $5K. Now for a critical point. If you truck is still under warranty, or EAP (aka extended warranty), ONLY allow a Ford certificate shop to work on it and only allow OEM parts, otherwise your warranty or...
