Higher gauge cable may be able to compensate. I would diffidently pay for one if it existed.I think it's the active cooling that would be an issue for an extension cable for DC chargers
I'd buy thatSo it’s a “complimentary“ adapter. You still have to pay for it but it says “Oh, your truck looks so nice” every time you plug it in?
VIN info is passed to the charging network through the initial handshake. Same way plug and charge works on CCS1Does anyone know, how Tesla knows it is a Ford that is connected? Does the truck give the supercharger a VIN number? I can't see how these adapters would be special in that regard.
Yep, VIN is provided. That's how Tesla knows who had free charging from their early model S owners.Does anyone know, how Tesla knows it is a Ford that is connected? Does the truck give the supercharger a VIN number? I can't see how these adapters would be special in that regard.
When billing fees are involved, they’re going to know much more than just vehicle typeDoes anyone know, how Tesla knows it is a Ford that is connected? Does the truck give the supercharger a VIN number? I can't see how these adapters would be special in that regard.
They keep saying "Spring" which in Ford speak usually means June. Giving time to ship them all out, I would say should plan on getting them sometime in the July-Sept. timeframe, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised!If they're making a press release now but not announcing specifics, I'm guessing it might be a little delayed. "Soon" "reserve"
yep, I agree 100% with your assessment on thisThey keep saying "Spring" which in Ford speak usually means June. Giving time to ship them all out, I would say should plan on getting them sometime in the July-Sept. timeframe, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised!
Maybe the first task for all the new Ford HQ interns will be processing orders forward to the manufacturing site(s) of the adapters and flood the market quickly.They keep saying "Spring" which in Ford speak usually means June.

Because they acted like a bunch of inpatient toddlers, needing a new shining thing, without knowing what would be allowed.Why would you say that?
We are all early adopters here, some earlier than others....
You do realize there are lots of people out there that think we ALL are fools for simply buying this truck.
