Yeah I totally agree. I’ll see how it goes. Maybe just some freak thing where a sensor was partially covered. I’m jealous of the weather in Ontario right now.

Interesting. I had no issues last winter. I would get the usual warning sensors were blocked but then that was it. It seems like thi yes but the weird thing is this has never happened before on this truck. Previously I would get the sensors blocked warning and then that was the end of it...

First snowfall of this year and front sensor alerts are non stop while driving. I was parked in the garage before driving so this isn’t related to sensors being completely blocked. Seems like they are picking up the flakes as obstacles. This didn’t happen last winter. Might be just ice build...

I’ve always wanted a slide out drawer option. I have kids car seats in there most of the time so can’t easily fold up seats to get at the storage.

Same here never used. Didn’t even bother setting up trailer backup assist as I tried it on my old F-150 a few times and found myself reverting back to the old technique. Im chalking it up to a generational preference.

Great answers but just wanted to clarify a previously unanswered question. Can the FCSP charge a Tesla using a J-1772 to Tesla adapter? Edit: I see this has just been answered. Thanks. Reading that thread…

Thanks for the replies. The location is 15 minutes from the nearest town, and although that town has fast chargers, it is 100 miles from the next closest fast charger and 160 miles from a major city with an airport. So in my mind Level 2 charging is a huge convenience (I have to charge my...

I installed my charge station pro in a vacation home I rent on Airbnb. I’ve switched off power to it for now as I don’t want renters charging up without paying for the juice. However I’d like to offer it as an option. I’m just curious if anyone on this forum rents and makes their charger...

Haha true last two I bought from a dealer was used and had no problems. I guess I’ve been “lucky” with my new lightning

New buyers shouldn’t have to check that their vehicle works as expected before driving home. The owner made a very reasonable assumption that the truck should charge as designed.

You mention snow and skiing so make sure you understand how much your range will degrade with low temperatures. In my opinion the standard range doesn’t have enough range for confidence sub zero temps on weekend ski trips. Check what you are paying for electricity to see how much money you...

I wish I had a more helpful answer. I was hoping there was a way to adjust the distance for the warning as in my garage I have to move around a bit in the red to get in. All I can say is after 9 months I got used to it…

I carry around at 50’ 240 v welding cord for bigger trips. Saved me once when I had to plug into the oven and a friend with a Tesla when he didn’t have the right adapter for Charge station at the cabin.

You bet. I claimed the ZEV deduction as I use the vehicle for work.

I’m being audited and am pretty bad at keeping logs. I’m wondering if there is a way to get your full driving history of the vehicle. FordPass only seems to keep 30 days.

Yeah I admittedly don’t know too much about Toyota’s hydrogen strategy but I do live/work in fossil fuel land and hear that there is a lot of work on the infrastructure side that has to happen. Given that we’re still having trouble producing a reliable charging network, something that is much...

This is one of the things that has struck me the most. There should be a thread called “stuff ICE owners at the charge station say”. Most people come up to ask questions about the vehicle but I inevitably get the preachers that want to come tell me why EVs will never catch on.

Yes but you need to consider what you would sell both vehicles for at the end of five years and account for the difference. MSRP is not part of the cost to own the vehicle because as stated previously that is accounted for in the depreciation and financing costs. Depreciation = MSRP - value at...

Not sure if this helps but I never remember getting a code. However with the FordPass App I was able to setup an emergency start passcode when setting up phone as a key. Again not sure if this is different than what you are trying to get.

To add to this it’s not an issue with the electrical setup. Have had this issue at multiple locations. 240 and 120 V
