    Looks like you had a wonderful trip! Those pictures are incredible! I have not been out that way in many many years, but now I am tempted!!!
  2. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    The first part of my post talks about dual chargers. The second part of my post is talking about dual charge ports! There is a very big difference!!! and yes, I generally charge at 80 A, but sometimes I de-rate it to match my solar production so I understand the difference very well!
  3. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    The 22s and 23’s have dual chargers which is how we are able to charge at 80 amp instead of 48 amp but yes, it is an option for fleet! Dual charge ports would be nice, but probably overkill now that Tesla is putting out V4’s with longer cords most of the others have long cords to begin with!
  4. YAP3338miRTR (Yet Another Positive 3338 mile Road Trip Report)

    Not sure about other places, but Bucees in Texas typically has Tesla and another brand DCFC in different areas of the parking lot!
  5. What Features Do You Want to See In Next Gen Lightning?

    Those prices are pretty steep!! And no information on production (wattage) which can’t be much.
  6. Lack of ICE causes a ton of Ice.

    just kidding: sort of…. Earlier this year:
  7. Admiration while driving from others

    Interestingly, the last couple weeks, I’ve had quite a few: ā€œ is that electricā€ When I’m getting in or out of my truck.-yesterday I answered yes and a guy said ā€œcoolā€??? ā€œ how far will it go?ā€ is usually the next question…
  8. Home Vehicle Charging with lots of solar panels and net metering question.

    EVSE = FCSP Electric vehicle supply equipment= Ford charge station Pro Your excess solar should be going back to the grid do you have a smart meter that you could pull up on the Internet?
  9. Lariat is flashing and honking - don’t know why?

    The only thing similar I have noticed is if I leave the truck with my phone (I think)inside and lock the door (using the keypad because that is the only way to lock it when it is still on ) it will honk a couple times even though I carry the fob in my pocket. I hope that makes sense and I...
  10. Home Vehicle Charging with lots of solar panels and net metering question.

    I too have solar, but we technically do not have net metering but I do sell my excess energy back to the grid. I have the Ford charge station Pro and Tesla power wall three they are hooked up to separate breaker panels as I did not have 100 amp spare capacity in my existing breaker panel but I...
  11. Splendid Isolation - F-150 Lightning Road Trip from Detroit to Big Bend National Park

    Sounds like a great trip! Hopefully, you made it to Balmorhea State Park?
  12. Looking at Used Lighting Flash with Replaced High Voltage Battery

    You might also be able to call that dealer that replaced the ā€œ batteryā€ or module and see if they would tell you anything? That certainly is a lot of miles in a short amount of time, around 5000 miles per month!
  13. Your Username - why & what does it mean?

    Well… at the risk of being hacked??? I guess I’m just a nerd. My first computer was long before modems…. and had the original floppy drive not the 3.5 inch non-floppy floppy drive, but I digress. Later when we had modems… My friend and I were some of the first to get a video game called...
  14. Apple iOS 18.4 will finally recognize Tesla superchargers in navigation

    I hope they also add the ability to easily change charging locations!
  15. Am I the only one that keeps forgetting that I have a Frunk?

    Same here… I use it all the time but today I was loading up a bunch of boxes in the back of the cab as it has been super windy and I didn’t want anything to blow away or get out my straps. I had two boxes left and I was about to put them in the passenger seat and then I remembered…..oh yeah I...
  16. Safety Program: 25S18 aka 25V131: HV Battery Electrode Misalignment Discussion

    I just took mine in yesterday for the ball joint recall or whatever! Luckily they checked it and everything was good. Just hope I don’t get this one!!!
  17. Farley believes he knows how to beat the Chinese on EVs

    I can see a couple of options! You could have an extra tire (or something else )under the vehicle that can move up and down on a lever attached to a generator to generate electricity while traveling down the road. Back in the day before they had gigantic gas tanks pick up trucks a lot of times...
  18. Farley believes he knows how to beat the Chinese on EVs

    I think Ford got it right… for their first try at a F150 EV! I love my truck I have road tripped from Maryland to Georgia and then home to Texas on day one!-No problems charging 11 months ago and things have gotten better since. It is definitely one of my favorite vehicles that I have owned. ā€˜66...
  19. Sigenergy (PointGuard) bi-directional system

    not available in the US…. Yet. At least this gives some hope between Nema standards being finally released and many companies chomping at the bit to sell stuff to us!
  20. Set up help needed

    ^^^Yes I use Car Scanner Pro which I believe is the same thing but a paid for version. I think it is a good program and the creator(s) should get something and hopefully make improvements if needed!
