I had a 06 4x4 Taco, I was lax about washing it and the clear coat suffered, after it got totaled and I got 20k for it (Low Miles) I bought the lightning. I made a pact with myself that I would wash the lightning every month. THAT, would be a HAND wash here @ Home. I ceramic coated the paint...

Ya, gotta LOVE that Independent suspension, and I assume the "Differentials" were locked !? 🤔

And we have to remember, in our Lightnings we can see in real time our energy efficiency, In an ICE unless you have a vehicle with the software to see your efficiency it's a big guessO'Meter. And as mentioned in this tread , , , putting the heat on, On a cold morning does nothing to a ICE...

I keep a excel spreadsheet of my charges, had the similar log for my 06 Taco & 96 Ranger (ICE's). Since buying my Lightning, I'm getting 2.35 m/kW, this is with minimal 75mph as possible (cruise control usually set @ 70)

You can get the m/kW you want, just watch the meter . . . doing 80 on the Highway as you have seen will show you 1.4 kWm, drop it down and you'll see the kW/m increase, you can get the m/kW you want.

WOW, Matthew Thank you for sharing your exploration! Loved all the pictures. I'm pretty much stuck @ home and long to "get Away" as I used to do. With the words and pictures you posted I'm able to live vicariously through your trip. So glad it all turned out good, (Coming from another XLT SR...

The Aptera certainly looks interesting, But I would be deathly afraid of being Rear ended. The way folks drive around my area, there were 4 major collisions on SP Dam Road just this last week (04-21 to 04-27)

Nor I, mine was purchased Dec. of 23

Ya, I'm just using the STD rudimentary Ford 120/240v Charger that came with the truck.

Yes, I even called Ford to see if there was a way to download my charge log, and after talking to the "specialist" was told there is currently no way to save it except to do it the hard way, charge by charge...smh

I agree, with my 06 Taco 4x4, I had documented ALL Fuel up's, and services (oil changes etc.) in an excel spreadsheet. There were several times it alerted me to service work needed.
