I have this amount expiring next month... not sure what the best thing to buy is. Some things seem useful but definitely overpriced. I'm thinking options for myself:

Yep this is what I've done. I take my woods/driver out if I'm putting it in the frunk... even if I can get the bag with clubs in, the fit is tight enough I worry about the heads of the driver/woods snapping off in a bump.
For those that asked, my interpretation of this is the delta he is talking about is the charging difference (ie cycling the battery from 10-90% is a larger delta than 40-70%).
I really wish the vehicle would display more information... I haven't DCFC with the lightning in a while, so I'm guessing the dash still doesn't display the charging rates?
For what it is worth, the current workaround is get an OBDII connector (I recommend getting a BLE/bluetooth low energy...
I've sort of been looking around the NY dealers for ER (sadly I have been limited on taking the truck on some trips because of the SR battery), even with the incentives in like April/May I didn't see any dealers wanting to play ball. I still see a decent number of Lariat ER around (and even some...
I can't wait to have to deal with the cable leaking liquid coolant into my frunk! I very much doubt they'd ever do this if the cables still require liquid cooling.
You'll need to find this post/claim, because I'm 99.99% certain it is not the case. I think I was the first one on this forum (or at least post about) to try using a TT-30 and J booster 2 years ago at a campground and a bunch of us basically confirmed the truck doesn't allowing anything more...
2 years in and nothing to show for this, I do not have my hopes up for what seems like a 'simple' request. I don't remember what the baseline power draw is while the vehicle is on and everything possible turned off (lights, screens, HVAC)... definitely not zero and adds up over a 2-5 day camping...
Wow.
So in that case my feeling would be:
1) Return vehicle if still in period that is an option.
2) Firmly tell the dealer they need to pay you a $7500 refund
3) Get ready to sue them for the $7500? At least consult with a lawyer to see if that is even a possible thing you could win.
Funny thing, I've never seen a sales person so delayed and/or not interested in trying to sell a vehicle... I inquired about a 2023 Lariat ER and got a bunch of automated emails over a week or so, I replied to the last one and then the sales person just didn't want to answer any of my questions...
So I agree with what you are saying but, not being an engineer, I don't think you've stated anything that I think would be impossible to rectify/design around... including redesigning the whole HIS (with a very obvious solution to the delay being include another battery for the instantaneous...
Are we going to get the booster 3 air? Honestly more interested in that... I bought the booster 2 when I first got my truck but returned it as the whole setup is rather large, and also the fact that my use case for it charging off TT-30 ended up not working with our trucks (which limit 120v to...
I don't think this is likely. Even with Ford cutting production I am betting that you will not see demand meet their current production, ie new trucks are going to sit on the lot and have steep incentives keeping prices down on used trucks.
I mean, at the time I ordered the ER was basically a $20k option since it required me to by the XLT tech package or whatever it was... at the time I definitely would've done $10k for the ER, but did not feel the extra $10k on top of that was nearly worth it.
I am fully expecting the 2024 XLT...
