I think it's reasonable to roll out updates over several days/weeks and many months/several years isn't acceptable. Some people like to raise software dev environment issues to which I'm wholly sympathetic to but I think it's also being disingenuous to something glaring. Or just stop trying...

Totally normal 2024 behavior for updates. Just like Apple does it.

I'm betting if you went out right now you'd find more stuff saying the Lightning charges at 80A than not, by huge margins and you'd have to Google specifically the lower charging changeover. Add-in ANY kind of official communication from Ford that it has it and I'm sorry but I don't care if it's...

I think we're missing something when judging OP, he was under impression-confirmed by Ford representative, that he could charge at 80A. We may be plugged in (heh) but the average consumer, isn't. Ford needs to be the authority, not some rando thread on a forum linking a 1 paragraph article...

You raise a valid question, 6 EVs in, not being averse to gas even despite that fact, would I buy the Lightning or the Powerboost, right now, knowing everything? I'd still get the Lightning. For all the reasons I'm ranting about it's still the best EV truck on the market and that EV part is...

I'll express the wider sentiment at my anger. It's not like anger anger, more like a Joe Pesci in Lethal Weapon kind of animated anger. It does annoy me probably more than the next guy, I do get that. But if it's annoying me to this level Ford should take note cause it's probably high on the...

This wasn't the case on older than July of '23 models. Up until that point you could only see % SOC from specific screens, never the default IPC screens. After July '23 Ford rolled out updates to some trucks, over time. My specific "what the actual hell" was (I guess bad on me for assuming) my...

I'm on my 6th EV and my build date is Nov '23. I didn't consider for a second it wouldn't have the SoC update and I likely wouldn't have bought the truck without it. I don't care if people think this is a pet peave but it's a sign of something and it's not one of a truck that should have left...

Yeah that's the dynamic that had me selling my GTI private. If the car is 3-7 years old, dealerships and your overall value on trade is much better. They want the car they can move fast, not have to have someone who is an enthusiast shopping it in enthusiast places to move in maybe 3 months. If...

Tesla has a take it or leave it factory approach. Honestly I got $10k more on my Rivian trade by going to a Ford dealership over going to Rivian itself to trade in an R1S vs. potential R1T. Very happy with my decision. So I kinda did what you did, but was also sure to get the like $5k sales tax...

LOL, this is the stupidest video in the world and shows CT hate has gone full meme. A super duty will fail in a tug of war w/ chain with a damn K-Car if the K-Car pulls at it the right way. All this shows is that 99.9% of the people never off-road and know nothing about recovery. Literally the...

Love this thread, I'm always telling people the truck actually excels at towing and then they think I'm the stupidest MF'er around. If you're a local contractor you can get almost any piece of equipment you want within 100 miles and not have a CDL. That's nuts. I even feel much better in our...

I got egged on by what I thought others had observed too based on a single observation. Stating again I'm backtracking from my questions until I see it again. :cool:

I just want more data tracked more deliberately before I waste peoples time. If this isn't something others have experienced I'd want to make it repeatable. I'm backtracking for now :D A good test may be to run the truck idle with everything off and do same period of time with outlets on and...

I'm confident there were losses, once, I wasn't expecting from the load that was being put to the truck. I saw someone else express noticing something similar and felt confident about this post. Why that happened I'm less confident than when I started the thread. I need to play more. If I...

It's a dated through the wall unit, great for stressing 120v circuits ;) I don't know that I'm ready to cede Ford was focusing on power tools. I think that's the marketing we have for the past few years because V2x didn't pan out as exactly awesome. Home battery backup is a far bigger market...

Hmm, wasn't looking for more potential variables/noise! lol Is there a more exact way to be reading sensors and values via OBD-II for this?

I'm going based on the reported SOC on the dash, whether or not that's a reflection of HVB or some kind of delayed charging, I don't know. I wasn't paying close enough attention, taking notes, writing things down. I'll do so now. Figured I was on to something and people here would just know the...

I'm telling you that it's using more power than it should, very noticeable at lower draws. I've had extension cords run for about a week now trying to different configurations. I can tell you overnight AC only in the cab was 4%, I can tell you lots of things. This is all Extended Range, XLT...

Canada is far from New Orleans and Chat GPT hallucinates :D
