One more thing to add. There are older versions of the Tesla wall charger that won't work. They don't use the required communication protocols. If you bought a new one from Tesla, then this is a non issue. But if you bought an older used wall Tesla EVSE, it could potentially be a problem.

FWIW, I have found that the.amount of calculated capacity is highest when I've charged to 100%, let it balance in milder weather. If I did the.above I may show 98 kw actual capacity after balancing in winter and 40 degrees vs 104 kw actual capacity at 78 degrees after balancing. Point being...

Opinions vary on this, so this is just MHO. If you deep cycle allot, or do allot of DCFC, then IMHO monthly is warranted, as it's easier for cells to get out of balance due to not having enough time for the BMS to so it's job. In my case I'm mostly between 40% and 80%. I drive approximately...

There are two versions of the adapter. One for DC fast charging, and one for level 2. Sounds like you are trying to use the DCFC version on Level 2. This will not work. To my knowledge , Ford only produced adaptors with their name on it for DCFC. I recommend you go to the company A2Z for the...

As other said, charge to 100% on a level 2 charger, AND leave it there without interruption on the level 2 for several hours after reaching 100%. The wires for balancing are apparently very small and it can take significant time after reaching 100% to fully balance cells.

With all these damn bugs they better call Orkin for help.

Your new here aren't you . . Don't believe anything from Ford until it literally smacks you in the face, and make sure you aren't dreaming, drugged, or in a mental breakdown.

Seeing these "spy" shots, does this look TINY. I actually like a smaller truck, but this may not be even as big as a Maverick judging from the photo with two people in the cab. Was hoping for something closer to the current Ranger crossed with Santa Cruz for aerodynamics and perhaps a bit...

Shocked! SHOCKED! S-H-O-C-K-E-D!!!! That is took this long to crash all around them.

Much depends on where and how you drive. If you drive 85 on the highway..... Well you are going to be stopping A LOT with either. Efficiency drops FAST with speed. I generally do 70 on the interstate to conserve energy to get around 2 miles/kwh. Say you going 120 miles. At 70 is about 1.7 hours...

Sure would be nice if our governor would stop kissing the ring, so the DOT.would release the funds to get things built. But alas, I can't say anymore without going off topic.

I have not measured the temp of the battery in route. But my experience has been that I get much improved charging when setting a DCFC as a destination in AA in both cold and hotter weather . If I forget to set it, charging performance is definitely slower Now as for you ideal, no clue if it...

Same happened to me. Mine.was.most definitely turned on previously.

Similar boat as you. I have not bought one yet, but I most.definatly going to buy a Ford ESP. The was a.user on here a few.montha back that had the main coolant pump fail. As it turned out there was allot to get to it to replace it, recharge the system correctly etc. user had Ford ESP that paid...

Agree with this. That's a ripoff number. Sales guy is hoping to screw you over.

That you want to is enough reason if it's not going to be a problem for you or anyone else financially. I often tell people to save yea, but what the hell are you working for? FWIW, I love my Lightning, I would still like to have the R1T. I like that it is different, and is pure EV company. I...

The Saudi money on as Lucid,.not Rivian Rivian has cut deals with Amazon and VW for cash inflow, not Saudi. They are also net positive on the production of vehicles, but the fixed costs, and construction costs, and lose of carbon credits still have them as negative cash flow. But yes, their...

Prices have gone up considerably over the last 6 weeks, and what's available that seem more reasonable have significant to severe red flags in their history. Even then, many of those don't stay on the market long. With gas only going up, and all but certtto stay there for possibly the next...

Keep what you have. Add the extended warranty if you feel like it and don't have it. I've been tempted to upgrade on my XLT ST to a Flash or higher, but would start the payment clock over again. I keep getting higher offers from Cavana, but adding years to payment knowing that eventually better...

Actually look at a F150 from 1995, it's the size of the Ranger now. End of story. Doesn't matter what YOU had blah blah blah ... Doesn't matter what YOU think you are. Doesn't matter that you are trying to perteay yourself as superior in some way. Your trying to make it person, just proves you...
