That statement taken on its face suggests this is a different issue from the module issue being discussed elsewhere in forum (and that I am experiencing). with a single vehicle causing them to pause production and shipment, it suggests the issue was mission-critical/dangerous. the separate...

this appears pretty standard. I was in a similar spot until yesterday, when the rep called me back, followed by my dealership calling me this morning. In my case, they purport they’ll only need the vehicle a day or two. Remains to be seen

while that’s not my experience, I admit that different parts of the country have different experiences and also that I don’t fast charge often regardless, the point seems obvious but trite to me that some is better than none. the more pertinent point to me is that Tesla has months ago teased...

I believe Ford expects them to give loaners for this - if your Ford rep hasn’t confirmed, I’d ask them to press it

SunRun is unbelievably terrible

to be even clearer, since there are on average at least 10 superchargers at a station, this means either: • there will be only 350 station locations open to non-Teslas, with all chargers available, or • there will be 3500 station locations open to non-Teslas, with only a single non-Tesla...

Leif Johnson needs to instead answer ford’s calls about scheduling my truck for battery module replacement.

to be fair, we don’t all have journal subscriptions bad reporting, insofar as half of hose are already open to non-Tesla vehicles

trouble is, the problem purportedly causes the truck to suddenly slow, eventually stop, and not move again. until mine is resolved, I’ll not be driving too far with my three toddlers in the vehicle. as for when it’s resolved, still unclear. The rep has been unable to connect my dealership with...

For those discussing the range hit in cold weather long distance driving: I’m here again only regurgitating what I’ve picked up here and there (which I may have misunderstood at times), but: In a BEV sedan with hood aero, the cold temps hit the battery function as well as some increases drag...

dealers rarely do these sorts of mods. As with bed liners, the “dealer option” is only as a middleman, farming out the work to local installers. Not that there aren’t some dealers that have brought some such things in-house, but for the most part. dealership both negotiates lower rates with...

I mean, if you’re prepared to prove up that the LLC is a legitimate business, the lightning is purchased by and originally titled in the name of the business, and the lightning is used more than 50% of the time for business (with ‘receipts’/proof of business mileage usage) - and even then any...

nodoubt this is a lowered speedy variant, surely the “comin soon” variant silhouetted in this piece and discussed in this thread

apparently the regs allow for various ways to adjust the dyno tests to real world conditions, with the 0.7 just being a common example factor. To some extent this would seem to police itself, as manufactures will have every incentive to both maximize the EPA mileage rating, while also...

get out that hairdryer :D

while the EPA tests may be outdated or misleading in some way, they aren’t at 55mph Results of all the above cycles are taken and averaged to reach the headline EPA figures. For BEVs, these are all done in a dyno, but results are multiplied by an inefficiency factor (apparently usually 0.7)...

Pretty sure that requires only an adjustment of the hood latch? Leaves it to being more of an oddity that Ford didn’t make that adjustment on the truck.

more than that. Appears more like the sort of Fiberwerx widebody fenders for chase trucks obviously the lowers and bumper means it’s not actually a chase truck like fender in stance, but it does seem to be wider in form than the raptor panels

SunRun itself is also trash (despite one comment above to the contrary). Never even made it to any middle-man contractor, and as the OP points out it’s impossible to get SunRun itself to provide any (correct) information or attention. Partnering with SunRun was a huge mistake for @Ford Motor...
