  1. EVs cut brake dust pollution by 83%!

    A couple of things, first, brake pads are very inexpensive, secondly, I believe you have that backwards (ceramic brakes vs semi-metallic.) Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that we barely have to use the physical brakes too decelerate. It's just that going ev to eliminate brake dust sounds...
  2. EVs cut brake dust pollution by 83%!

    If reducing brake dust is the goal, just use ceramic brakes on everything.
  3. Extreme over predicted range!

    The air is a bit more humid in S Florida. 80 mph is 1.5mi/kw. Lucky to get 2.0 mi/kw @70 At 40-45 mph with no stoplights- over 3.0 mi/kw. At any rate- the range is based on previous behavior. The OP averaged roughly 1.9kw/hr per mile. That's about right for a mix of 80mph and 40mph.
  4. F-150 Lightning SuperTruck Run a 6:43.482 Nurburgring Lap Time, as Quick as 911 GT2 RS

    Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo | 5:19.54 minutes | 20,832 km That would give me legit PTSD
  5. Why isn’t the Lightning getting more of the gas F150 market?

    Virtually everything I thought was important about EV ownership turned out to be completely unimportant once I owned one. I remember stressing about the infrastructure of charging stations more than anything, as well as time to charge on the road. Fast forward over a year and a half later, for...
  6. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    One other thing that has been touched on numerous times, but no one has said it out right, if you plan on keeping this as long as it sounds like you do, you want to keep your battery between 80% and 20%. So even though you have a "240 mile range'" realistically, you're only dipping into 60% of...
  7. Not charging correctly after battery module and charge port replacement

    That doesn't sound abnormal to me 🤷 Get into the 30% range and see if you get the larger curve. I won't pull over 150 if I'm over~50% iirc
  8. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    That's not accurate. on my 2023 Standard range pro, I have pro-power 9.6KW (with the 240v outlet in the bed among other things) :)
  9. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    When did Ford use an LFP battery on the standard range lightning? Thanks in advance
  10. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    I got a standard range, and regret not getting the extended. I don't think anyone bought an extended range and has regrets of not getting a standard.
  11. First pickup ever – need advice on hard bed covers for winter + full bed access

    Love that. I have a roll up with bike rack. I didn't realize you could get the rack on without the rails that are part of the roll up. I miss the space the roll-up cartridge needs.
  12. Ford Won't Give Me the Pro Charger 80A

    Just my opinion, but I would urge you to stay away from the HIS. From what I've read, HIS integration is rarely ideal, very expensive, and works intermittently.
  13. Can you activate PPO without having to keep the truck "running" the whole time?

    Do you have the 15" or 12" screen? thanks again EDIT: I have no such option on my 12". Just a slider to set when it shuts the outlets off at a miles to empty setting. The outlets are only energized with my truck "on" Kind of a bummer. The routine of shutting down...
  14. Can you activate PPO without having to keep the truck "running" the whole time?

    Right, but the truck is on at this point, no?
  15. Can you activate PPO without having to keep the truck "running" the whole time?

    im not sure exactly how you're able to to energize the bed outlets with the truck off. Ignore the load minimum for now please. How are you energizing the bed outlets without having the truck "on?" Like the OP, I would like to run PPO and not have the dash on. Thanks
  16. OTA Wishlist

    I didn't read through all of it, so apologies. In addition to dog mode, how about camping mode? Or at least make the interior dashboard dimmable when in generator mode. As soon as you turn the headlights off, the dashboard backlight is no longer dimmable on my pro. Sure, I can turn the 12 inch...
  17. To repair or not repair

    That's what I call a management decision... You're management. My .02 cents, replace it. I'd be very disappointed if it went out out of warranty and then failed.
  18. Edmunds 3 year Lightning review

    Exactly. Their biggest complaint is charging. which makes ZERO sense. Anyone who owns an ev wakes up every day with a full tank of electrons. Only reason stop at a gas station is to use the restroom. This concept is completely foreign to them, as not having to fill up is incomprehensible to...
