After 2 years/50,000 miles I don’t even know if the 240v plug even works — and that was a “must have” feature for me Lol. My solar inverter has a “generator input” breaker that I’m gonna wire up so I can backup my house with my truck, so the 9.6KW inverter is still important for me; however...

Finally got cool in Georgia so I’ll be able to test, but this morning I set air on 74, auto, and made sure heat was on. I had preconditioned, so truck was warm, but even on auto 3 I couldn’t feel any air or hear the fan running; the windshield started to fog up, so I manually set the duct to...

I had the same issue (56%) right after an update and it fixed itself over night.

I have SR and would recommend it. would I like the extra range? Sure, but not for $10k. For long road trips i gladly stop a couple extra times and save the money.

I use A Better Route Planner. Let it plan the trip for you, but then edit the stops to your liking (food, distance between, brand, etc.) I use google maps to navigate to the chargers.

Just one app to charge anywhere sounds amazing! To charge my truck I have these apps… 1. Ford pass 2. Emporia energy (home charger) 3. Tesla 4. Electrify America 5. Flo 6. Shell Recharge 7. Chargepoint 8. FPL Evolution 9. Circle K Charge 10. Rivian 11. EV Connect Most all of these could be...

I don’t think you should upgrade; too much money for too little extra range. I would gladly make a few extra charging stops to save several thousand dollars.

I prefer using the AC plug for my cooler; don’t want to run my tiny 12v battery more than necessary Lol

+1 for Emporia I got mine for a future solar upgrade that will let me maximize my charging from the inverter. It will read the inverter’s output by attaching two amp-meters to the output wires, and then the charger will dynamically increase/decrease charge power to match the inverter’s max...

DC fast charging puts far more stress on the battery than driving hard; people who claim to know such things seem to be backing off on the “fast charging kills batteries” belief, so “stomping it” is probably negligible. More important than stress would be your mileage efficiency. Driving hard...

I had that happen 1 time last year; it appears that the truck forgot to add the power of one of the motors to the gauge. I drove it home just fine, restarted it and haven’t seen it since.

I have standard range. On my Atlanta to Harrisburg trip, I used ABRP to locate chargers along my route, but used my Apple Maps to navigate to them. I didn’t use ABRP’s suggestions though; to make my trip stress free, I planned to always charge to 80% and drive 90-120 miles to another charger...

I’m pretty sure I see 2.8 occasionally, though it does skip it a lot. Never 2.6

Yeah, that 400+ miles of range makes me jelly too, especially since I have standard range. I gotta remind myself to be content and thankful for what I got Lol. After many long trips though (including a recent 2,000 mile trip), I realize that range isn’t as big a deal as it feels. For my use...

Pro Power runs while driving; my first charging stop was at a Walmart to stock up on pizza, pizza rolls, pop tarts, and water; the fridge/freezer kept stuff cooled and frozen, then I’d cook a meal when charging. The truck would be ready to go before I could finish eating!

Others have gone much further, and I won’t be too detailed, but I want to share a good trip report. My brother got married two weeks ago and moved to Harrisburg Pennsylvania; he couldn’t take everything with him, so I loaded everything he left into my ‘23 lightning Pro SR and took it to him...

If it’s a destination charger, you’ll need an adapter for destination chargers; that adapter will work for all level 2 Tesla chargers. if it’s a supercharger, then pull up the Tesla app, click on the charger and scroll to the bottom of the charging description page; it will say if it’s a NACS...

Your truck should absolutely run the well!! but don’t let random people on an Internet forum tell you how to wire it up :)

Mine dropped to exactly 64% power reduction a month ago; searched here and found a couple others also had it happen and it disappeared after a day or so. Mine was back to normal overnight and no issues since.
