Anyone get the new one as a replacement or just me 😂🤷🏻‍♂️. 5*** just came today
Yeah. I got one of the new ones today that looks like what Lectron has been selling. It's MUCH beefier and heavier than the Tesla-made adapter it's replacing.

"Ford still can’t figure out supply chain management"?

I gather you've never tried to get a Tesla repaired. I damaged the front bumper of a Tesla Model S and it spent about six months in the shop waIting for parts. My wife damaged the front bumper of our Lighting and I think the shop got all the parts it needed the day after asking for them. The Tesla repair also cost about 3 times as much. The six-month delay was a bit unusual but all body repair work on Teslas is insanely expensive.

Oh, and I think Tesla made the adapters that Ford is replacing.

By and large, Tesla has amateurish management, very much including supply-chain management, and Ford is a much better-run company. I'm glad Ford handled this recall as well as it did. I'm sure Tesla would have done worse.
Nope, born and raised in Michigan so I’m buying Big 3 machines for better or worse. And then we turn around and complain about it to our neighbors who work for them

On the one hand, I’m happy I got my replacement at the end of December… but on the other, I wish I had got it a week later so I could have the new version instead of Tesla 😂
