Well shit! Finally!!!! Just showed up. 👍

Depending on where you are update wise you can turn that on in forscan. I did on my 23. Works great.

Wonder what they would be doing with the unshipped ones. Company vehicles?

Same for me. You ain’t taking my CarPlay away! lol. Even still with map integration they CarPlay or the oem gps the truck still “knows” where it is at any given time so it’s a possibility. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. But as with CarPlay at this point you’d have to also pry my...

It’s quite possible that they will utilize the gps/nav to help the pcm decide usage of the range extender. That technology has already been in use for a few years in the heavy truck (class 8) world. The pcm (engine computer) uses gps data so that it knows where the truck is at all times as well...

I also grew up in the 80’s in LA. I too remember my chest hurting on those days when the smog was bad. And I will admit that carb helped get us cleaner air. But now that we have much more advanced engines and vehicles we don’t have those issues anymore. I don’t see us going back on that part...

On the subject of “CARB” they are not long for this world. I’m surprised that the smog thing is still going in CA. They obviously are trying to hold on as long as possible. 🤣

Just curious. If you have a 25 why were you ordering another one to replace it?

iOS for me. 26.2

I wish that they woul Yes. Although I’m for certa That might happen sooner than later in the people’s republic of California. Refineries keep closing. Gas keeps going up. I don’t live here but am working here. I just smile as I glide past the gas station and pull into work and plug into the...

Bastard! 🤣

You understand that one of the biggest reasons their cars are so cheap is that their own government subsidizes them. I will say that the quality and features on the Chinese cars are pretty damn good. But again it’s about price. If china were to get into the us market and keep the prices low hell...

Yes! I agree the oil companies should not be getting any subsidies. Level playing field. I prefer government stay out of many things to be honest.

They have been incentivizing it for yrs now and look how it turned out. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.

Agreed! I don’t think I ever want to go back to gas. I love my lightning. I would not count ford out of the game. Now that they have the tech down etc. if batteries get better/cheaper etc. they could probably easily pivot back to a BEV at a future date. But I’m glad I have mine now. That’s for...
