I do not have Max Tow, I was seeing as high as 150kW at first but then it bounced between 90 and 110kW from 10 - 80%. My battery temps were hanging out from slightly high to halfway up the high side of the bar, so the truck clearly thought it was warm. No other faults seen, the battery almost...
Yah, some said throttled some said good, I will say I'm on a 350kW station right now and only drawing 110kW. It might be a mix of both, I just figured it was the truck since 4 different stations were giving me 60kW.
I tried searching and didn't see much; As someone enjoying heat indexes in excess of 115F, I've noticed I can't pull more than 60kW from any DC fast chargers. I saw that rate with some 85kW Charge point chargers, with EA 150kW stations, so on.
I imagine the truck is throttling itself to...
Have to imagine that they will as the Cyber Truck comes online. Despite my serious doubts about it's actual usefulness, Tesla can't market it as a long range work truck if you can't easily charge with a trailer. Maybe they'll do truck stop big pull throughs, 2 or 3, at every charging station.
I wonder if you will have to pay for Plug and Charge access in order to use said NACS chargers? Right now, we have to pay for said future (although we're all on the 3yr trial) but what happens in 5 years or so? I'd hate to have to pay to use Plug and Charge when I need to supercharge...
Having access to Tesla's network is a massive improvement and you'd be tripping to think otherwise. I just had to deviate hours out of my way because there are not enough CCS chargers in WV. I will have the same issue in a month crossing Mississippi and Arkansas. If I had an adapter and could...
I would wipe down your cameras, they can get dirty and when they are, the truck will struggle. I find that keeping them clean helps it read speed limits correctly and keeps Bluecruise happy.
I'll be amazed if Chevy will sell this vehicle in bulk to consumers. If they do, Ford is in trouble. I feel like it will be impossible to come by like the Pro and equivalent RST versions with the big battery are going to cost an absurd amount.
Question, do we get the discounted rates with the Blue Oval Network? Or do you pay full price? I've been paying full price so I guess the only benefit is plug and charge, but if I sub for a month to Pass+ with EA I figure I need to disable plug and charge so I can pay with my pass+ account. Is...
I think my average is 2.3/2.4 over the past 4 months of ownership. My highest so far has been 3.1 to 3.2mpk commuting. I legit charge once a weekend with the mobile cord, it's all I need. I legit love this truck, it might be the perfect fit for what I needed in a vehicle.
This is what I genuinely fear. Around my neck of the woods, I know where's safe, but not on the road. People know EVs are expensive, there's no security, and you can't easily drive away. I don't tend to let many things worry me, but getting robbed at a charging station does not seem far fetched...
I haven't carried up to this point, but charging has convinced me to for road trips at least. I imagine all of us know the feeling of rolling into a sketchy gas station, but with charging you can't drive off and even worse have to get out and unplug. I've been shaken down before gassing up, so...
Even loading stuff in the Frunk really doesn't get me much attention here in the FL Panhandle. I've had other EV enthusiasts ask, including a reservation holder. I definitely got a lot more looks DC Fast Charging right next to a busy parking lot in Alabama. People were very surprised. But for...
I feel like it actually looked a lot better than what the Renders showed. The massive batteries are interesting, if prices skyrocket then I'm not sure how they sell them. I can't imagine appetites for 100K+ vehicles are higher right now with rates are where they are. Even Lariat ERs at 87K have...
I reached out directly to the local chamber of commerce showing them a brochure from FPL on incentives to install charges. I know Tesla just put some in at your Publix over there. FPL will fund installing them supposedly. Miracle Strip in FWB is getting torn up right now to hopefully put some...
I'm also in the area, but haven't seen another driver yet. If you'd like, let your local city leadership know about FPL's program to install superchargers. I'm around the FWB area and it sounds like they working to make it happen.
I had planned on installing the charge station but so far I only need to charge it once a week overnight and the mobile cord is working great. Derating the charge station would be nice so the mobile cord could stay in my frunk in case of an emergency.
