Motion sickness is most probably caused by your driving style.

What's the gain to pay lawyer if Ford give all your money back?

I am early adoptor of EVs so I am not really arguing... EV sale needs 30-50% jump year over year. Without volume it is not sustainable, very simple.

Our tier1 is 45 cents and we always charge at tier2 at 53 cents. And yes Tesla SC (not open for other brand yet) 5 miles away is 35 cents and 16 cents after 8pm.

This is with $7500 credit. Imagine without this next year. People just have no interest, hard to find the right charge with enough speed, battery failure, miserable resale value, and the unpredictable repare cost, no need to mention the high insurance cost and extra $100-200 registratin fee...

XLT (ER) is OOS everywhere.

Simple math: Gas means > 40 cents per mile. Electricity means 2 cents per mile.

30A breaker for 24A charger adds 5.5 kWh per hour for 10-12 miles and 12 hours to charge 20-80%. If you have a reliable EA around it is fine. Otherwise, consider a 60A breaker 48A charger which reduce charge time to be half.

If this number is for engine/transmission failure with replacement/rebuild, it would be shocking. I hope Ford already has a solution.

80 trucks with bad module is not good.

So what is the summary and miles/kWh?

It sounds more like software issue triggered by the charger rather than the real error. Of course this is only my guess, but unless Lightning is using very different battery modules, MME has much less issues to my knowledge. Hope Ford can fix all the issue soon.

If anything can make you feel better, you can buy another Lightning and claim $7500 again.

This is rediculous. How many miles did you drive? Offer them at most half of that. BTW, will they buy back at your purchase price?

If I were you, I would try 80A and wait for a while, then check every 10min. The first sign of overloading the adapter is the heat. It should warm up if the contact is not capable to handle 80A current.. My guess is it should work fine. The manufacturer of the adapter had no chance to test 80A...

I also got a phone call. But, unless I can get one for $60k, I will pass and get my $100 back.

Air suspension and steer by wire are really cool. But bed volume with CT is small. It is just a little longer.

No matter how, the battery failure rate is higher than new cars with engine or transmission failure, no need to mention engine + transmission. Hope Ford can solve the problem and make battery last much longer which should.

Much smaller frunk, compact cabin, smaller bed (only 5 inches longer). If Lightning bed is 6 feet it would be perfect.

My first impression of CT is also ugly but now I changed my mind. I still prefer Lightning for its size, frunk, cabin and bed. But CT is very cool, expecially its bullet proof stainless outside. If it has the size as F150 and a larger battery, I could pick it over Lightning.
