Ding! Ding! Ding!!! FordPass will show a non-compatible SuperCharger, but it will tell you that it is not compatible. The Tesla app (assuming you set it up to be charging a Lightning), will not even show a non-compatible station. PlugShare will very obviously tell you if a SuperCharger is...

May sound like a dumb question. Are you plugging your adapter into the truck and then plugging the NACS cable into the adapter, or are you plugging the NACS cable into the your adapter and then plugging the adapter into your truck? The reason I ask is many people here have reported that only...

Here's what I am planning on doing. I will have an aux battery plant that will consist of two deep cycle batteries in parallel. The two batteries will be mounted in the bed just forward of the wheel wells. Because of the shorter bed than my previous truck that means the battery boxes will be...

It's AntiMatter Blue - same thing on my Lightning. And agree about all terrain tires.

Nice!

Sounds similar to me. My commute is 52 round trip. Because of driveway logistics, it is far easier for me to charge at home on Tuesday or Friday night (the other car is normally gone overnight). I normally charge at home to 85%. It takes about 18% of my ER battery for a round trip to work...

Thanks for all that testing! Interesting result.

I have been trying to pay attention to this. Sometimes it updates and sometimes not. I MAY have found a pattern and would love to see if anyone else can confirm this. If the truck starts up with the center screen on Android Auto, the suggested distances will never update. If the truck starts...

Sounds way too familiar except it was in an airplane. Flying one night from Eugene, Oregon to Sacramento, Calif. Ended up with headwinds about 40 knots higher than the forecast. A little south of the California border I realized how high the winds were and REALLY started paying attention to...

They are visible without removing anything. May be easier to get to with some removal, but should be able to do the 20 cent mod without removing anything. I have not done the mod yet, but it's on my ToDo list.

I received my mobile charge cord with my truck. The first time I attempted to use it, it did not work, but that turned out to be the adapter cable was not COMPLETELY plugged in (thanks to this forum for resolving that issue). After that I used it once on 120V (9 KWH), and then installed a NEMA...

That was treading on thin ice - so to speak. I think I would have turned the AC off or at least the temp setting up quite a bit much earlier. That and slowed down as much as practical. Granted, on a major freeway, there are limits to how much you can slow down

Also interested in this test. Here's the other part to test (assuming this works), is a separate load required for the frunk / cab 2.4 KW inverter and the bed 7.2 KW inverter, or will one switched load like this keep both inverters from timing out?

But if you NEED a charge and the cable won't reach without the extension, then 50KW beats ZERO any day! Certainly a possibility - not just Tesla V4 SuperChargers, but other vendors as well. I would assume that most new Tesla installations will be V4, but I don't know that for certain. But...

Arizona is NOT flat.

Anyone have any insider information on the A2Z NACS extension cable? It's still listed on the A2Z website as a future product. I attempted to use a SuperCharger over the weekend that was V3 chargers that were against a wall so no possibility to use with my Lightning. It had only one stall...

You can change that in ForScan. Changes it to the "European" model where the seat belt chime does not ding at you until you get to 13 mph. One of the first things I did because I routinely get in, turn the truck on, then put my seat belt on, then close the drivers door. Note, I'm adamant about...

The "HyperMilers" years ago demonstrated what CAN be achieved. Granted that was with ICE cars, but the concepts are the similar for an EV. However in a real world situation, most people HATE to have any of those HyperMilers on the same piece of road that they are driving because they have a...

Did not know that was a 24 and newer only feature. Learn something new every day.

I don't know why you were getting errors, but it is easy enough to see what is happening in real time. With the truck on (accessory) the charge rate is displayed on the screen. If nothing else, pay attention to the charge percentage. If you start at 50% and 15 minutes later it's at 70% - you...
