Did you get your numbers from that "AutoinsuranceEZ" infographic?

Good that they wanted it back for a postmortem. That's what a reputable company should do.

I'm in the middle of credit card disputing this obviously fraudulent, defective, not fit for advertised purpose Ohmmu piece of crap. Glad OP is safe. I really hope Ohmmu does not harm someone else who does not have the same sense to get out immediately...

CarScanner connects to my OBDLink MX+ just fine. It does take up to a minute from disconnected state to actually have the "dashboard" start updating sometimes though. How long are you waiting for CarScanner to finish the connection cycle?

Never say never, but generally no. If you lock the rear diff, and the front tires have very low traction + asymmetric rear traction , the back end will try to step out toward whichever side of the rear has better traction. If you aren't used to and ready for this, you can end up headed the...

Why am I suddenly in the mood to take a journey ...

To answer the question in the title, definitely not. Is EA prefect? Nope. Have they made gobs of strategic, site layout, operational, and pricing blunders? Absolutely. But the trend is in the right direction. And with real competition from not only Tesla, but now Ionna also, that trend will...

Love the track, hate the thought ;^)

If Ford moved their software team to Oklahoma, would we get it sooner?

So my android auto app version just got bumped to version 15.9.655114-release com.google.android.projection.gearhead versionCode 159655114 targetSdk 36 minSdk 32 Installed: Jan 21, 2026; 16:12 Updated: Jan 27, 2026; 00:48 But I still have the 0 mi to next stop bug. Yay.

EA has been known to set their stations to free vend mode during times of connectivity issues, maintenance, mechanical unreliability, etc.

Hard disagree. Internal wiring/traces, contactors or solid state relays, the cordage out to the J1772 handle, etc all have amperage ratings that need to be respected. I get that you were trying to say there's no AC to DC conversion in the EVSE itself. Which is 99% true. But the way you actually...

My '22 did that just before completely draining its 12V battery. I'd check yours well before the next time you need to use the truck!

Not sure exactly when this behavior changed, as it used to show up there. But in my last real trip, at no time did my android auto destination show on the range display.

How many kW is your EVSE offering the truck? I'm also noticing the amount of kWh shown in CarScanner for the same display SOC takes a nosedive in the cold. 100% in the summer is high 120's, now that it's been cooler (but nowhere near as cold as it should be here) 100% is maybe 116kWh at most.
