Hey, that is me in the other, Everyone is Towing.
And yeah, our horse was none to happy. He is “green” to Eventing, and after a long weekend of being worked he really did not want to be in that trailer.
Maybe we will see you again next year, we do that trip (Port Townsend to Bow) for Pony Club...
This happened to me for the first time today (33K miles on the truck). Truck was plugged into the Ford Pro Charger, although was not actively charging (SOC was higher than the charge limit I had set). Overnight temps about 30F.
I recently got the software update PT-25.8.5, which includes a...
I have also seen people with solar panels on their tonneau cover, which you could utilize. It would of course not add much, but there is the cool factor, and I am assuming a use case for camping/off roading.
I am no mathematician, but my rudimentary number indicate a potential 561 mile range at 60 MPH (2.4 M/kWh) with the extended range battery, charging at a sustained 11 kWh.
I realize there are inefficiencies in charging, head wind, acceleration and braking, that will alter actual results.
I...
As for the truck still showing low mileage on the GOM after disconnecting the trailer, you need to go into the Trailer app and select No Trailer. Even though you physically disconnect the trailer, it will continue to show the towing range until you change it in the app. (Note this is different...
Everything has been great. Truck has a "full tank" and is warm every morning, and handles like a sports car. Oh yeah, it can tow my horse, haul hay, and dirt, and fit my family of 5. Granted, the ham sandwiches it makes leaves something to be desired.
As a visual learner, I would love to see a video on the installation. If you know of one, please share. If not, hopefully, there is a brave soul that will record their work.
And thank you to the OP for sharing; this looks awesome.
If that is the case, I would be happy to help out. I use the truck multiple times daily, and we use the frunk daily (opening and closing via app, button inside cab, and manual button).
Do you need access to the truck, or would you send the device, and we provide feedback to you? I would be happy to help, but am wondering what a "decent amount of usage" means. Opening and closing the frunk a lot, or something else?
I am right there with you. Sensor and Frunk are scheduled for next Friday... so they have about another week of "learning" on other people's trucks. The only thing that gives me hope is that my dealer appears to understand the challenges; someone originally scheduled me with a "regular" tech...
I tow a standard 2H trailer. I get about 1.2 miles/kWh. I am using a WD hitch and I have the max tow package. With this setup, with the ER battery, I can get about 160 miles. Very easy to tow with, and with all the tech, I can hitch up by myself and for a novice trailer, I can easily backup too.
