@Ford Motor Company Thanks for the communication.

Any chance this can be made for Google Maps on CarPlay? I prefer Google Maps over Apple Maps.

I got 10.1.0 during a road trip a couple weeks ago and it really has been great. I especially like the estimated SOC on arrival. Didn't know it was also preconditioning for DCFC stops, but at current temps in the south that probably didn't matter anyway.

I have this update as well and it is awesome. I haven't noticed, but is there any visible indicator of the preconditioning?

I have also been using this feature for at least a week in my 23 XLT SR. I feel so special to get if before everyone else. I am also glad to hear it will do preconditioning.
The predictions are fairly accurate for me so far. I did one trip with no wind and the estimate was a little conservative. I did one trip with a slight headwind and it was spot on with the prediction. My final trip was with a hefty headwind and it was about 5% short. All of this was with the nice 40-70 degree temps we've been having in Minnesota lately.
It did keep trying to send me on a route that was 1 minute faster, but would use 10% more of my battery. Because of that extra 10% needed it also wanted me to charge during the trip and it kept picking a really slow charger (level 2) when I know there is a faster one in the same town. Hopefully those little things get better with time.

Nope, best way to confirm is using an OBDII reader + app to monitor the battery temp. If the battery temp meter in the cluster is not centered, you should see it move towards center line (takes 15-20min).
