  1. Slight Reduction In Acceleration. Has Anyone Else Experienced This Issue.

    Agreed. I’ve tried using my phone to measure 0-60. I’m somewhere in the high 5 second mark with tires warmed. Usually at about 70% state of charge when I’m doing these impromptu tests.
  2. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    Should have gotten Pro Power. Should have gotten an X plan discount through the Mustang Club. Would have saved about 10k based on the invoices people posted online. Otherwise, I stick by my purchase as one of the most rock solid I’ve made in a while.
  3. My Goal: to never pay for charging (Solar) -- my automation process

    Was it easy finding an electrician to connect to your electrical panels? Besides a transfer switch, what else would I need?
  4. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I’m sure that these “losses” will be used as loss carry forwards to allow Ford to avoid future taxation.
  5. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I test drove a regular Etron and wasn’t sold on it… maybe the GT is much better but at that price, a Taycan is worth considering. Surely the folks at Porsche can figure out that there is a market for an electric Cayman/Boxster.
  6. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I am very happy as well but would really like an EV convertible next. If not I might settle for a Taycan.
  7. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I don’t trust the range meter. I just calculate based on percentage used and assumption of 131kwh capacity of the pack.
  8. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I think the crew here wants quantification if at all able. We’re all guessing with intuition really. This is the key question. How much range loss does the heat pump prevent at 50F, 30F, and 0F? If we had to guess, it’s probably 15%, 5%, and 0% but I just say that based on my experience with...
  9. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Update. 70dB standing at drivers side mirror during preconditioning. 50 dB at the top of the 15” center display with door closed.
  10. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Anyone have a 2023 in MN and about thirty minutes to kill?
  11. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I’ll do a decibel reading inside and outside next time.
  12. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    It is very loud when outside the vehicle. Can’t hear anything major once inside- just seems like a faint white noise. No vibrations.
  13. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I will say that the heat pump appears quite effective. Not until it was below 30F did I see efficiency go below 2.0 mi/kwh
  14. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Extended. I purchased extended knowing cold was going to have this effect
