If you've ever seen an EA machine reboot you would notice the Microsoft Windows logo. I'm sure that's a big part of the problem. They route their tech support through another continent with language barriers. Frankly they just suck period and they charge a fortune.

OP here to report we completed our trip with only minor issues that were all EA related. The superchargers were flawless. 1,320 miles with 1.3 miles per kwh for the trip. For the most part we did the speed limit and kept the heat between 63 to 65 degrees. We left Kansas City at 100% and...

We just did a 1320 mile trip from Kansas City to Red Lodge, Montana via Fargo and across I-94. Coldest temp we saw was -7 on Saturday night. Without the supercharger access and the Level 2 hotel charger in Bismark I believe the trip would have been impossible. Average for the trip was 1.3...

My truck has needed two top offs of the coolant reservoir since my module replacement. My service advisor is great and will have the EV tech top it off when I pull it in to the service area. No waiting. I'm guessing about a quart has been added and I have seen no coolant on the garage floor...

Yikes. Must be a big ass pump. The 3/4 hp Grundfos installed at our off grid place was like $750 in 2015.

Wouldn't replacing your well pump with the appropriate sized Grundfos be the best and least expensive option?

So I'm guessing the Ford BEV team is no longer proactive on these bad battery modules? Shortly after we purchased our '22 Mannequin in June of 2023 I was contacted by the BEV team informing me that our truck had a bad battery module. This was about a month before it threw the powertrain fault...

Yep. We have a 240v Grundfos and it's never overloaded our Schneider XW+5548 inverter.

Here is an update on DCFC preconditioning at the end of 2024. Playing around in the garage I can tell when preconditioning starts by the sound it makes. The only way to start preconditioning is to use the truck's built in NAV. CarPlay NAV with Apple Maps or Google Maps does not work. Using...

So you were able to make that trip without supercharger access starting out at -41? If so, my trip should be a breeze.

Yeah we both have battery operated heated jackets and wife has hand warmers.

Worthless. Give us a manual DCFC preconditioning button.

Hey guys. OP here. Looks like the weather has really changed for the worse. Highs at 7 degrees and lows of -9. Does the Lariat ER really lose 50% range in these conditions or is it more like 30%. We will postpone our trip if we have to charge to 95 or 100% at each stop. Charger distances...

Always or just recently?

I saw the same when I tested my adapter last week. '22 Lariat ER. It was over 180kw. I should have taken a screenshot.

We purchased our '22 Lariat ER with all options in June of '23. It had 8k miles and was driven by the owner. I believe it was in the FCTP program as the warranty and subscriptions had started about 6 months prior. It was MO dealer and we titled it in MT. I made sure it had an MSO and that it...

Thank you. We have about 20k miles of interstate experience with our Lightning. Most of that going across I-90 from Sioux Falls to Billings or I-70 to I-25 and up. Taking the I-94 route this trip because of the Superchargers. All the Superchargers on I-90 in SD and WY are V2 (UPDATE: looks...

If we have time I will hit the SC in Bismark when we get there and charge to 60%. Then plug into the destination charger at the Hotel. If we aren't above 90% in the morning will probably hit the free Chargepoint 65kw charger at the Hyundai dealer on the way out of town.

Yeah I have the 80a Tesla Tap. Didn't work on the V1 destination charger set to 80 amps at the Hampton Inn in Sheridan. Everybody else can charge at them, just not Lightnings for whatever reason. I asked the manager if he could set one of them to 60 amps and got the Scooby Doo response. So...

Thanks. We usually leave the Truck on all night to power our car fridges and keep the cabin warm. I can't remember if having the truck on keeps the batteries conditioned or if I still need a departure time. I'll probably head to the SC super early while my wife packs up and gets the pup ready.
