  1. Blue Oval Network Discounted Rates?

    Yeah so in that case, its possible that if you didn't have Plug and charge enabled, you may not have been able to use that stall that day. Or, you might have needed to call support to get the stall to activate. One really nice benefit of keeping plug and charge active is that it can often...
  2. Blue Oval Network Discounted Rates?

    No need to turn off plug and charge/Ford Blue Oval. You can just make sure that you activate the station with your EA app before plugging in. It will then use your EA Pass+ membership's payment method and charge you the expected discounted price.
  3. Adapters for mobile charging

    I got this tesla adapter and have used it at hotels many times already. It's like 50-50 whether a hotel has j1772 VS ONLY tesla wall connectors. I also carry my old J1772->Tesla adapter even though it's useless now for me. I've lent it to forgetful Tesla drivers who were at the same...
  4. BlueCruise Subscription Price Increased to $800/yr for All Renewals

    Maybe they have an actual target price, so they doubled it and announced it. Now, in the midst of all this backlash, they can back off the announced price and people will be ~ok with the lower one, which is still absolutely ridiculous. It will be interesting to see if in a week they come out...
  5. Home Charging Station recommendations?

    I really like my grizzl-e duo, nice full 9.6kw from 14-50 outlet. It has two hookups for a hypothetical second EV some day. If two are plugged in it will split the power 50-50
  6. How-to DIY: Home Tire Rotation without removing underbody plastic panel shielding

    This was my plan for snows for the next winter season. Wondering how/where you were able to buy the wheels.
  7. Secure Charging at Home

    I thought about running the actual charge handle part around the front driver side tire, and then looping the cord through a long pad lock, that way the only part they could steal would be the 120 or 240 volt adapter plug. That is... unless they brought a jack.
  8. HOW-TO DIY: Add Walk-Away Lock to F150 Lightning using Tasker & Android

    This is great. I have basically the exact same tasker automation set up already to enable and disable my phone tethering (essentially making my truck have car wifi for passengers with ipads etc). If this low amount of api calls doesn't get you flagged by ford, I might add this on as well...
  9. Man shot and killed at charging station

    There's a new product called the EV Ject that is basically a breakaway charge cable for tesla supercharging. Stop the charge via the screen and it tricks the car into thinking it isn't plugged in at all, and then when you pull away it has a break-away piece that separates. The site says they...
  10. Future Battery Upgrades?

    Only thing you can really hope for is if inside 8 years or 100k miles, you have an SR and you need a warranty replacement, and they only keep ER batteries in stock for those, and you end up with that as your replacement.
  11. Extension Cord to Mobile Charge Cord

    Isn't it nuts that Ford doesn't have the relevant info output in the truck or the app so that we wouldn't have to contemplate doing this?? My model 3 would tell me exactly what it was getting, and I saw a difference between one extension and another. There's no reason Ford can't do the same...
  12. A/C Smell

    My model 3 had this once a year and I'd use the foaming stuff on the coils, replace the filter, and it would keep it away for a while. I have noticed it in my lightning once, and it smelled similar. I think the key is to turn off the ac button when you get home/close to it. It will let the...
  13. Ford Power-Up 4.2.3 Video Streaming

    The wifi stuff, the ability to accept terms or sign in on a captive portal, that's big. I'll definitely be setting mine up with xfinity wifi now, it's basically everywhere here.
  14. What features do YOU hope get added in a future S/W update?

    I thought I'd miss a lot more from my Model 3 than I ended up missing in the end. Dog mode would be nice, so that I can be confident that I set it correctly when I leave them and that the alarm won't start going off immediately. Dark mode in the app is something small they could add.
  15. How many Lightnings have you seen in the wild?

    My dash cam caught this atlas blue out my way yesterday.
  16. Water in rear light bar

    That's why I got the additional 2 years from Granger. I added on the lights piece too. I do not wanna be on the hook for something that by then will probably cost like 5k
  17. Accidental unplug !?

    basically every unplug for me is an 'accidental unplug' notification in the app.
  18. AC Charging Speed - What's more efficient?

    I also read somewhere that with AC the higher the less losses. Some times being slower helps in some other ways though. I lowered my charger down to 16A so I can more easily fit my charging into my excess solar generation. One option is, I could just quickly charge up using the grid and...
  19. FordPass App 4.25.0 released w/ Charge Rate Indicator!

    Wish they'd add the ability to reduce charge amps from the app.
  20. How many Lightnings have you seen in the wild?

    Drove from western PA to Hilton Head, SC. Plenty of charges involved. Only saw one other lightning in North Carolina on the way home. I parked next to a couple Rivians. They are surprisingly small.
