My Lightning is my second EV, and in my case I went with the Standard Range version simply because it became apparent with my first EV that range was not a priority for me, and I feel that in a few years when more fast charging stations are available, it will be less important for everyone.
My...
Thanks for posting this.
When I was invited to the factory on launch day, Darren Palmer mentioned something that I found pretty interesting.
If you have a home charger, it's not a bad idea to configure a morning departure time even if you don't know for sure what time you plan to leave...
I just got an email saying my official Ford CCS Charger to Tesla EV Charging Network Adapter finally shipped.
I ordered mine within hours of the announcement, and was originally scheduled for the summer, but as many of you know, they had significant delays.
There's a FedEx tracking number that...
I received the email telling me my CyberTruck is ready to be delivered, from the order I placed long before Ford announced the Lightning.
That order was based on it being the first EV pickup truck, and that it would start at $40K, with the 2 motor option costing about $50-$60K.
The email they...
My last update was in May.
What I really need is an update that fixes the SiriusXM issue where the artist and title are not shown. I've had that problem for nearly a year.
This type of post has been popping up every now and then since day one, and it drives me crazy that this is "Working as intended".
I assume the root is that they don't want people using the screen as a replacement for the rear view mirror for some sort of safety reasons. Meanwhile, if you...
For what it's worth, I've owned two Gator covers and I absolutely love them. The newest version is even better than the older generation, with a lower profile than the old one, and you can unlock it from one side.
I've searched all over there and on the ICE forums and there doesn't seem to be any specific DIY updates mentioned,.
However I remember finding an ICE thread months ago that mentioned something about asking somebody over there for a USB image to push an update, but I didn't try it at the time...
Song titles and artist names are still now showing up after all these months. I was hoping there would be an OTA update to fix this.
Does anyone know specific steps I can take to update my Sync system to fix this?
I just stumbled on the opposite experience. Alexa started answering me again after it was gone for quite a long time.
I mainly stream music and Audiobooks through CarPlay, so I couldn't understand why I would need to subscribe to Ford's Connected Services subscription in the first place, so I...
Whenever this happens to me, I hold the radio power button and the right skip buttons at the same time and the center screen will reboot. For 12" versions, you can do this with one hand. For the 15" screen, use the right skip on the steering wheel and hold the radio power button with the...
After extensive review of the photos, I finally found the things that are the same as the Lightning.
1. They used the same font for the logo.
2. They both have the number 150 written on the side.
3. If you look closely, I think they have the same sized lug nuts on the wheels.
This has always seemed like a bad idea too. I think there should be a ProPower Mode that doesn't involve making the truck available for driving.
I'm sure this has something to do with the way they designed the ICE version, where the truck clearly needed to be running for the generator to work...
I ordered mine one day later, 3/1 and the estimate is August, so I'm hoping for 8/1. :)
Meanwhile, I didn't want to miss the summer, so I ordered an A2Z, which I still haven't used, but it's great knowing I have more options.
I love it!
People often overlook the fact that RV sites are a great way to charge while camping, especially in remote areas that don't have many traditional EV Charging locations.
I like the look, but as others pointed out, it no longer has support for the Zone lightning, which definitely comes in handy.
Also, I found myself accidentally locking, unlocking and turning on the climate control more than a few times.
What I'd really like to see is a quick status of some...
You are 100% correct. DC Charging still remains the only source of power for many people.
Although it's a well known fact that DC fast charging wears out batteries faster than slowed AC charging, the fact is most car owners only keep their cars for a short time, so it makes you wonder if they...
I agree. I don't think I will ever need to use a DC Fast Charger on the Island, but there are quite a few people who are not allowed to use an AC charger living in New York City.
For what it's worth, those 12 SuperCharger stalls are used heavily because most EV owners living in apartment...
It's just funny that there are over 500,000 people living on my little Island, yet there are 12 Tesla SuperChargers and only 2 DC Fast Chargers (ChargePoint) which are nowhere near a highway because they're owned by the Parks Department and were intended for their fleet.
They're finally adding...
