I agree. I learned this lesson back on my 1st Prius (the Flintstone wheels Prius) back in 2002 or 2003, when its ECU the central electronic brain for that car fried itself about 17 miles short of the end of the warranty. The dealership clucked about it but replaced that critical electronic...

1st bolded recommendation - no. I'm living proof, and I'm not into suffering for suffering's sake. 2d bolded recommendation - yes, very much so.

Nice. Ordered a pair. It definitely fits my truck's 21st Century ethos :crackup::crackup::crackup::crackup::crackup:

Haha yeah my driveway has a slight incline, and the inclined slope is uneven... if I park close to the EVSE on the wall, I have to manually pull the parking brake lever to set it, but if I park just one foot+ back toward the street, the parking brake sets itself automatically as I shut the truck...

DM me and we can work things out. I've done this mod for my truck and for other trucks, so I have some practice ;-)

I just had a very good experience with installation of my free Ford CSP @ 80 amps, on my pre-existing Virginia-provided 2010-era secondary EV-limited TOU electric submeter circuit. The QMerit subcontractor crew was unusually good. I say this after having completely rebuilt the guts of my 1939...

Interesting thread. I had the 3-year free BlueCruise 1.0 and eventually 1.3 i.e. the early lane-change version on my 2022 Mach E. I used it all the time. When I got my teardrop trailer in Western Colorado, I turned BlueCruise off to "learn" how the Mach E handled pulling the teardrop. To my...

Nice post - good points, well-reasoned.

Yes, thank You. The term "mandate" can be easily misunderstood because it has far broader inferential meanings in casual conversation and a far narrower, precise meaning in, for example, legal documents, i.e. legislation. There are multiple other such words whose meaning changes in scope or in...

Let's remember that it was "the hand of government" that got lead out of household paint, lead out of gasoline and seat belts into cars, as well as adding smoking warnings to cigarette packs, raising the legal drinking age to 21 and stopping the daily municipal incineration of garbage. None of...

Had I not had a wonderful 75,000+ miles with our Mach E Mustang, with cross-country trips etc., I would have never ever considered the Lightning. I worked out all my HOW TO tricks and hacks of living with an EV while driving the now-gone Mach E. Once our Mach E started to mechanically shake...

No way. The longer I have this truck the more I appreciate the multiple uses of the mega frunk.

FYI for those with the 12-inch screen, this is a worthwhile item. I love mine.

Heyyy... I know exactly where this is hahaa...

I happen to have a perpetual FScan license. Yeah, it's a thing... those were available for a time back in 2014 or so. Mine is still tickin', through four Ford cars our family has owned. I mention this here in case anyone in the Northern Virginia area needs access & help... just DM me.

Good discussion - thanks for posting.

+1 on all points.

Yeah I saw this somewhere else as well. To the OP's question: removing the rear cargo bed / box is likely pretty much the same as on the ICE truck as far as I can see... but per the document posted right above, that action would likely expose now-protected vulnerable points of the EV harness...

It means that Ford Corporate server in Detroit is having a hiccup. I get that very same message at times when I check in... at other times, I get the software release notes for my latest update. No rhyme or reason i can discern...
