Only wish it was true

[DJSJOEKS]

Charged my ER Lariet to 100% for the first time in quite a while. Range shown is 413 miles....if was only true. Will see what happens when I take my 270 mile trip.

Man.....That would be nice. What's your average mi/kwh consumption reading?

I see the problem, you have a Lariet. The Lariats get better range.

Edit - wait, you're a retired Ford engineer? Misspelling Lariat?

" Only If..." you also drive the same way you have for the last several hundred miles...

that's where it's getting this 'guess' from

I can do 500 miles in my PRO, around town, in traffic, slowly : )

2.4

Longer trips usually involve higher speeds which means lower efficiency. I would fully expect your trip to be shy of a GOM estimate.

Bingo! I average 2.8mpk for around town stuff so I believe the GOM when it gives me better than EPA range estimate. But I also know that the estimate is only good for around the town.

True, but with a weighting applied for the most recent use.

I don't know the exact calculation used by the GOM, but your last 10 miles seems to be of greater significance than the 20 before it, which is greater than the 50 before that and so on.

It's not called the "GOM" for nothing!

Hope you are loving your lightning Doug!

I am. Have not had any significant issues...knock on wood.

Took my first little trip of 280 miles. Only issue was charging with EA I did not get my member discount because by the time I accessed the EA app it had already started charging through the Ford Pass app.
