For those of you that have received your truck are you seeing full charge range getting to 320(ext range)? I've been driving like a grandma trying to get mine up there but realizing that the 100+ degree days we have had might be having a larger impact than I thought. Just curious what everyone else is seeing.

I'm only getting anywhere from 1.9 to 2.1, 248-270, if I'm lucky. I'm in Texas with those same 100° days. My speeds are 55 to 70 in the country. Hardly any City driving at all.

I've been pushing to get mine broken in for our camping trip Sunday (need to tow 6k~, manual says put 1k miles on before towing). I just put in 800 miles, 99% highway, always going 72 on the highway (bluecruise/adaptive CC), sometimes 75 to pass. Averaged 2.1-2.2 mi/kw across 800 miles (so like 275-288 range).

Think this puts me spot on for the highway EPA rating and maybe slightly better. Don't think EPA tests at above 70MPH.

Sorry no city/mixed driving data yet really. The tiny bit I did do I was getting like 2.6-2.8 doing 45ish for 10ish miles.

I feel like now we are in a race for last place ! Who will get the final FU

 

[RDeFran]

Could be me

Went by the dealer this morning and it was not there. Called Ford at 4:15, they told me it was on the truck set for a delivery window between 4 and 4:30 today. Lighting may strike tomorrow.

Estimated Delivery 8/6/2022 - 8/12/2022
How fn stupid to give a date starting 8/6 on 8/8 !!!
FMC what are you doing ?

I called at 930am no update at that time.

@TaxmanHog it arrived 10 minutes ago along with Duncan Ford's first mannequin. Picking it up 10am tomorrow

Damn y'all, I sure was frustrated with how long it took to get my truck...but after reading this article I'm ecstatic that I was able to order a 2022.

They said mine is nasty from sitting in the rail yard

And then there are two to go (on my list)

Looking at my photo, bear in mind I will see the truck in three hours, does the XLT have the same tail lamps as the signature lighting but without the bar? The tumor on the upper light looks out of place. All of my paperwork from Ford still states it comes with signature rear lighting, but everyone on here says it does not.
