  1. Return to the gas pump.

    I’ve still got my gas chainsaws. I haven’t had a good enough reason to get past the finance department to swap the small 16” saw out yet. Big saw will still be gas until there’s a decent 24” electric chainsaw. I don’t run them enough to justify replacement. I really hate trying to start them in...

  2. Ford needs to add PD (Power Delivery) protocol to the USB-C ports

    I’ve added a few plus like this to our travel trailer: https://a.co/d/2OmaGnd We’ll do trips where we will have to recharge several gizmos (laptops, tablets, bike garmin/lights, even my jump pack). I also added some regular USB-A jacks, for the slower-charging devices. In total, I added 3x...

  3. Ideal Charging Frequency to charge to 80%

    My routine in the winter: I set my truck to 80% unless we’re heading out of town. Then I’ll set to 97% to charge overnight. About 3-4 hours before departure (which is usually in the afternoon/evening for such trips), I’ll hit the “start” button in FordPass. It warms the battery when charging...

  4. What do you keep in your sub-frunk?

    I keep a portable EVSE, 14-50 extension cord (which I’ve only used camping, or in the U.P.), kinetic recovery rope and soft shackles in the bed, mounted on BuiltRight bedside panels. Additonal stuff goes back there depending on the trip/season. Behind the back seat I’ve got a first aid kit, and...

  5. One-pedal-turn off in icy conditions

    1-pedal driving has felt quite natural to me, with regen feeling quite similar to 2nd-gear engine braking in my manual Jeep JK at moderate speeds. Going from daily-driving a manual to 1-pedal hasn’t been an issue for me at all. Oddly, I’ve also driven a manual with regen braking: a Honda manual...

  6. What is this under the frunk?

    With mine, I disassembled the beeper, and stuffed the cavity with some higher density foam. It quieted it down a bit, but it was still annoying. Then I peeled the speaker off where it is mounted. It still actually beeps, but you only hear it if you really listen for it. It’s useful if I stupidly...

  7. Show us your copilot.

    And this is what Scoob looks like when he’s refusing to get out of his truck.

  8. Show us your copilot.

    Scoob (aka Goop) loves his truck. Here he is this spring, waiting for his next truck ride, instead of going back inside the house like I wanted to. The back seat of the truck is all set up for him, seats folded up, dog bed on the floor. It’s one of his favorite places. If he gets in the truck...
