It may just be announcements but I am glad to see these EVSE makers are finding it worthwhile to compete like this. It shows a maturing market and one big enough to be investing in. As a now dual EV home, I look forward to more options for daisy chaining EVSEs or dual port EVSEs.

I prefer Lincoln’s on-dash buttons. It looks clean, has what you need, and is taking up room that on basically every vehicle is just trim pieces. I love my Lightning so far. Only on week three, but this truck has answered my main complaint of my previous F-150s which is feeling like a...

It would help to know if you're talking standard range or extended range battery. But you can figure most of this yourself. The Lightning could handle all 50kW, and let's assume no losses or whatever. Assuming an ER, it would have 131kWh (usable) battery pack. If at 20%, we can assume the...

Yeah, the boost in March isn't a huge surprise given the incentives available. It's what got me into mine. I had a reservation back when the Lightning was first introduced, but Ford kept bumping up the price to where it was not worth it by the time my number finally got called. They finally got...

I know you may not want to get too heavy into details, but do you have a rough location where you are that you want to share? I have dealers that have done well by us, even without plan pins, in at least Michigan and Indiana. Much more recent for Michigan.

Agreed, I will remain hopeful but I am sure Ford will not want to upset dealers, so probably not as restrictive as A/X plans are on what dealers can do. But, and I know this is a bit naive maybe, hopefully most dealers are considerate of the situation and don't go overboard. The way some...

Yeah, that's fairly typical at start of the month. They are usually a bit slow to update it with new incentives, even though if you talked to a dealer they should be able to pull them all up. That said, it wouldn't be entirely surprising if they pulled back on the hood incentives aside from...

Ah okay, I didn't think it would take you to different inventories just on the sale. Hopefully more details/rules are released on what qualifies and in cases like that maybe what doesn't.

No I don't, because I never had them on. I was very clear in the message you quoted that "hopefully this is an experience more people get...". Which indicates I am aware it is rarely that easy for most people. I have helped friends and family over the years deal with dealerships when it came to...

All this talk about dealerships taking advantage, we need to see how Ford implements it. If it is actually equivalent to A plan pricing, the dealerships won't be able to "play games" with most things because A plan price is set by Ford, not the dealer. They also place limits on certain fees like...

Huh? I see 2025s just fine on the Ford site, they have been there for a little while now. Can build and price and all that. It isn't the main drop off page yet because they are likely still selling 2024 stock, but it's definitely there. Even in Inventory checker:

Cool idea, hope it helps them move vehicles. Maybe a little bit of a mixed blessing though as the last time I think Ford did this was the 2008 recession. I'm sure it's fine though. I already get employee pricing, wish they had a cash-for-perfectly-good program because our Options plan for our...

I’ve forgotten the ancient texts! You are absolutely right.

BlueCruise 80.08, arriving soon! At one of my old workplaces they had glass outside the NOC where if you flipped a switch it would fog/glaze so you couldn't see in. I am sure it's still stupid expensive, but that would be cool for rear windows in cars, especially when you have to leave more...

Correct, but I believe that's why he said the providers "pay-as-you-go" rate and not membership rate. If you have an EA membership where it's discounted, it's best to pre-activate the charger with EA than to use P&C. At least last I heard. I believe Ford was working on something for that but...

This is how we ended up with our Lightning. We have a Mach-e and I have been driving the Lariat PowerBoost in my profile pic. Driving my wife's Mach-e spoiled me so much that every time I drove the PowerBoost, which is no slouch in the on-paper power numbers, still felt like such a boat. I don't...

Thanks! How are you running both off the same circuit? I don't see them mention daisy chaining like with the Tesla combo EVSE or anything like that.

I think the talk about distance from a DCFC alone is a little rough since I have watched a lot of videos with people that road trip EVs and while they can get to a DCFC for all of their trips, sometimes they are going 5-10 miles off the expressway to get to it. That's better than dead battery...

I know Ford has gone into all the testing they did with their version of the adapter which you can find other posts on. If that appeals to you it might sway things. Also be sure to use the coupon codes (usually listed on the main Ford Accessories page) before paying with FP points as I was able...

I have a roughly 30 foot NEMA 14-50R cable I use with our large open frame generator when needed and it plugs into an inlet on the side of our house and we have an interlock as was mentioned. I don’t really want to buy another cable if it can be avoided and then removing the ground. Can I buy...
