I don't have an issue with a generator, if I wanted it. I don't understand the dumping all the engineering and development cost like this. Why not build the 25-26 with 1 battery option and 3 to 4 trim levels with mo options to have economics of scale. Then transition to add a generator to the...

Doing both seems insane to me unless there is some beat the snot out of the bed protection needed. I've had all the bed products made in the past 30+ years. I went with the Weathertech Impact pad and love it. It is grippy and comfortable on the knees. I don't dump rocks in my truck so...

I still have my reservation, I'll wait to see what it is when it shows up. I loved my 2014 RAM 1500 that I traded for my Lightning after trying EV life with a 21 Mach-e. My RAM was flawless for 120k miles and never left me stranded. In most cases the Lightning is perfect, but in trips it...

I'll be out of the 36k warranty before month end for sure, really like to see these updates. My 2014 RAM 1500 Hemi 4x4 Crew Cab basically ran 137k miles with only one out of basic warranty repair. It was a struggle to trade the RAM for the Lighting give the amazing reliability I had. I did...

Not just west, Mississippi is terrible coverage away from main areas. And I get it, you love your SR Pro and tripping, I've read you stories and respect the dedication. But there are over 620k sold F150 ICE this year so far that never need to plan gas stops. It is effort and just isn't...

All CEOs are like this with reacting to shareholder value needs. That said, at 34k miles on my 23 XLT ER, I'm very happy with the truck, the road tripping is just not ready for most consumers. I honestly do wonder if Ford could have saved more cost buy using g the exact same body as ICE...

OBDLink LX Bluetooth 3.0 OBD2... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H9S71LW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Did I buy the wrong OBD to do these scans? I'm very confused and the app it has me download doesn't give much info for a BEV. Any help is appreciated.

I know not the same thing, but the Gator flush trifold cover I've had for 26k miles is really leaking a lot more at the edges now which makes leaving thing in the bed that can't get wet a problem. I could use the option for the rack for sure with a 12' wooden canoe being a transportation pain...

I thought cool, I'll put a deposit down, but then I calmed down lol. This seems like trying to make a US market for a Japan Kei type truck. I love how everyone gets excited for a Kei in the US, they are a unique experience for most Americans for sure. But after 3 months in north Japan with...

I'm sure if they add these to local Wal-Marts not close to normal travel/trip routes they will be used by people with no home charging ability. I've you have never experienced the stress and pain of a Walmart EA stations blocked by 3 chevey bolts (and 1 broken station) on a roadtrip with a...

You are a unique individual pushing the SR limit like I would never consider to maintain a happyish wife;) If I could tell anyone new to EV one thing it would be avoid EA and CP at all cost. Stop early at Tesla, use the app and either get the provided adapter or buy a quality A2Z one...

I honestly don't understand how even the dealership didn't know the tire, they tried to say my truck came with another brand based on VIN. I know 2023 was a challenge year, mine was built for me and the first one my dealership sold. Sam's Club was just easy and fast, I was at my appointment 20...

So the stocked Goodyear Wrangler took a cut and when I called, the dealership, my tire shop and finally Goodyear store, nobody could find an EV branded Wrangler. I didn't want to go into this Memorial Weekend on a spare, so Sam's Club mounted Pirelli Scorpion in stock that seem good. 70k mile...

No way I'll ever trust the Ford Nav for route planning. It still routinely routes to 60kw stations vs stopping early and hitting higher speed stations.

Great advertising piece, I admire you all for sure and glad you spent the significant time planning and charging for your situation. I decided to going skiing with my son to West Virginia and it took one look at ABRP to determine a rental Toyota Camery was best option. The infrastructure...
