  1. What functions go away without paying for BlueCruise?

    Bluecruise is not worth it until you get the BC 1.4 update. At least that's what I feel based on the few that have 1.4 I have a Flash and its supposivly BC 1.2. When I had the 3 months of free BC. It wasn't much different than what I have now 5 months of non BC. Sure I can let go of the Wheel...
  2. 2024 Flash…Bearings and axle gone at 2K miles

    Did they provide a loaner vehicle? If so what is it and does it work for your application. If it happened to me, I would need something comparable for my occupation of plumbing. Rick
  3. New BlueCruise Version 1.4 - Rollout March 2025

    Dejavo. Look what just showed up in my email. . A free 28 day trial that starts May 1 and ends May 29th. I know weird timing.. possibly because we might see bc 1.4 at that time and want you to continue for a fee. . Rick
  4. BLUE CRUISE 1 YEAR EXTENSION FOR FREE IS BACK! CHECK YOUR FORD APP. DID MINE THIS MORNING

    I Have a 2024 Flash. What year is your Lightning? Just took another screenshot of both monthly and annual pass. Nothing showing up as free. Rick
  5. PSA if your tail gate is down and you have a light strapped load

    I've carried 40-50 gallon water heaters on the tailgate. Fits perfectly between the factory cable.supports. plus the heater weighs less than 150#. Rick
  6. Last day! It was fun expensive and …

    Where you also got screwed was what the dealer gave you for it when you sold it back. Case in point. Bought a 23 pro in May of 24. Loved the Truck. Wanted more bells and whistles.. Shopped for a 24 Flash and purchased it Sept of 24.. Basically had the pro for 4 months and 2500 miles. Dealers...
  7. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    Zprime, glad you and I are on the same page. you totally understand what I wrote. But to clarify the amperage / wattage. the 60 amp breakers are used since with a constant heating demand we can only draw 80% of the rated breaker. so if the actual load is 50 amps, we need to use 60 amp breakers...
  8. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    Once again you're completely wrong. I've been in the plumbing trades for 49 years. I can count on 1 hand the amount of whole house electric tankless heaters I've come across. Reason being is it would take a dedicated 150 service just for the tankless. Very rare to see a 400 amp panel, unless...

  10. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    Glad your day job is not a plumber or an electrician. 36kw ÷ 240volts = 150 amp. There are 3 small heating tanks inside the tankless to make them work..150 ÷3 is 50 amps per tank..x. the 80% rule comes out to 60 amps per mini tank.. that's 6 - 60 amp breakers. Did you actually compare your...
  11. BYD announces 1000V battery, 5 min to charge

    Ok, so where is all this nuclear power suppose to come from? Right now drawing 40 amps level 2 is a stress on our grid here locally with approx 6 homes on a single transformer. I don't even bother selling tankless electric water heaters as they tend to require 6-60 amp breakers. Not going to...
  12. BlueCruise No Longer Showing Lane Change Visual?

    I too have a 2024 / Flash purchased Sept 3rd. But I've never seen the animation, even with the 3 month free trial. Are you paying for a BC subscription? Rick
  13. What are you paying for insurance

    Go onto progressive insurance website. There you can juggle all the coverage and deductibles. That's who I ended up going with and the prices were much better than before.. I went 500k/500k 3 business vehicles, 1 pleasure. Rick
  14. Selling my 2022 Pro with 30k miles

    Ok, so I was in a similar situation with my 23 pro purchased in May of 24 . Purchased a Flash in Sept 24. Pro had a msrp of 55k lots of extras over base. Dealers were only willing to give me 35k with less than 3000 Miles. Screw them. Placed a $5.00 ad in craigslist for 45k with 8 photos. Had 3...
  15. Turns out there was no First major problem in 67000 miles, Post #23

    If it was from another vehicle, his window and headlights would have residue. Unless of course he ran over an entire case of oil and didn't notice it.. Rick
  16. 240 volt charging wall receptacle gets very warm 14-50R bryant

    I was having issues on my non fused disconnect. Turned out the cheap design doesn't engage very deep or evenly especially with the plastic cover plate installed. These are the cheap 60 amp Air conditioning disconnects that they sell at the big box stores. Running 50 amp gfi breaker with 40...
  17. ECG-24.2.5.7 - Gateway Module

    I too received 2/27/25 the same update on my 24 Flash . Noticed it on my Ford pass app. I wasn't plugged into my charger and it updated. Looks like a mass ota update around the same time frame for us non EAP users. Does that mean when they release BC1.4 we will all get it around the same time...
