  1. Unable to charge v4 Superchargers

    Not saying this is the issue, but when the Bucees in Springfield MO opened with V4 stands, it was something like 8 weeks before it opened to non-Teslas. Seems they wait a while before activation for other EVs. OP, another thing comes to mind. Wonder if it's the CC tied to the account? Expired...
  2. Aftermarket NACS Adapters - best recommendations?

    THIS! Typhoon Pro is definitely better than the others
  3. OTA Software Update 10.1.1 - Enhanced Connectivity and Power Management

    Actually, it enables Android Auto integration, which greatly improves route plan through AA.
  4. The Least Reliable Cars, Trucks And SUVs You Can Buy In 2025, According To Consumer Reports

    I personally don't trust CR anymore. I have seen top much obviously cherry picked data, or skewed article in search of a predetermined conclusion. JMHO
  5. Connected Built-in Navigation Renewal

    Just to be completely clear, my post was about Android Auto new functionality with the Lightning, and not the Ford Nav. Also to be clear, AA starts automatically when I turn the truck on. On the occasions where it fails to connect by Bluetooth, I just plug my Android phone in if I want to use it.
  6. Connected Built-in Navigation Renewal

    I used it in the last week, and it worked. Also have several instances of navigation with AA and the estimated SOC have been close and a bit conservative. Meaning estimated 48% SOC on arrival of a 100ile drive, and actual SOC arrival 50%. I'm good with it being conservative. So far IMHO AA...
  7. 2023 Lariat ER back at dealership for another dead battery module

    I have seen several times that SK On was a LG spinoff, but taking a brief look around, I don't see anything supporting that.Maybe misunderstood or something. So SK On it is. I would still lemon law the truck for reasons stated.
  8. 2023 Lariat ER back at dealership for another dead battery module

    IMHO Lemon Law while you can. Obviously LG was not having a good day/week that your battery cells were manufactured. Once, Ok, things happen Twice... And things just got very very suspect.
  9. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    Seems the great and mighty can do no wrong Tesla couldn't or wouldn't meet their NEVI obligations in Oklahoma. So much for the ideal Tesla should have gotten the NEVI funding. https://electrek.co/2024/12/03/tesla-loses-out-to-evgo-in-oklahomas-nevi-ev-charger-rollout/
  10. BlueOval Charge Network?

    I have used P&C for both EA and Tesla. You are not double billed. You are billed the non-member rate for the site through your Ford account. You WIL NOT get a discounted price even if you are a member for a lower kwh rate. It has worked very well for me to date
  11. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    Transformers are extremely expensive, and the charger units are as well. Then there is engineering and construction.
  12. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    Than you, Good to know. Key ofy point is that Tesla is doing no better on the NEVI sites than anyone else, and in fact have issues deploying at already permitted sites.
  13. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    OP says those things are just self inflicted waste! Checks and balances don't matter. Just give Tesla all the money so their share price goes up. Thing is, you absolutely don't want one dominant player. Tesla got an exemption they should not have gotten IMHO to qualify for NEVI funding...
  14. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    You stated NEVI, and I and others have shown how that can't be concluded at this time. Just because you don't like the answer isn't my problem. Reality is different from what you stated. I'm done with you as you obviously have made up your mind and will not change it. So this is a waste of time
  15. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    OP, you are showing a complete lack of understanding of what is required. Yet you somehow believe you are qualified to pass judgement. How are you supposed to change a 2 year wait for transformers, or that utilities doing things when they feel like it? You claim your precious post was about...
  16. Did Tesla get Gov't money for opening NACS? Also NEVI is disappointingly slow

    Not going to bother to argue. Just point out that slow does not equal wasted. State DOT's had to organize entirely new management groups, those groups had to learn what they were doing, then had to acquire data, analyse that data, figure out how much and best use of money allocated, and some...
  17. Ford Will Begin Shipping The Lectron Vortex NACS to CCS1 Adapter To Its Customers

    Check the other thread on what's being recalled, but I think it was accepted that adapter is being recalled had the 00-D that is seem in the second line of text in your photo.
  18. Ford CEO Jim Farley's fascinating 'take' on taking on Chinese car companies...

    I think the bigger picture is being missed here. Yes it's about EVs and updating transportation, but it's more than that too. Subsidies for Vs and batteries now, are building a foundation for bigger things. Just like the early days of the computer. The ev's just provide an early marketable...
