  1. Wave 6 extender left out of invite yesterday

    O wow! Why would anyone order a pro then? I wonder if that means they won't produce any consumer pro models until then and perhaps only focus on the commercial fleet orders.
  2. Wave 6 extender left out of invite yesterday

    I do remember. I didn't extend but i saw screenshots of trims on the order page saying sold out and then there was an option to extend per trim or order lariat or platinum.
  3. Wave 6 extender left out of invite yesterday

    From what I understand, all orders being taken right now from the extended reservation holders will be built in few months and delivered by the end of the year. Like i said the order number matters only to the trim. So if they took the orders for pro this week for all extenders, they will...
  4. Wave 6 extender left out of invite yesterday

    Keep in mind ordering before someone doesn't mean you will get delivery before them. I ordered on the first wave before majority of people and yet i still am waiting for mine to be delivered. From what i understand to make it simpler, they will get the extended pro orders this week and extended...
  5. Wave 6 extender left out of invite yesterday

    I believe you had to select which model you were extending. They didn't give you a general extend option. From what I read somewhere, the XLT extension orders will go out next week. If it shows XLT for yours perhaps you will get an invite next week.

    Like i guessed, mine is back in the factory building this morning. Not sure what's going on. Perhaps some kind of damage they need to fix before they ship it to me. Upsetting I cannot get any updates about it and they claim there is nothing like that just waiting for shipment which is not true.

    That's the thing i don't understand and doesn't make sense. If they are able to ship later built trucks, something is off when they keep telling me they are waiting for a carrier. That's BS. Then they shouldn't be able to ship any other vehicles. I am only 9 hours driving away from the factory...

    My delivery ETA is still TBD. Talked to Ford support this morning and they claim it is all related to shipping and they are waiting to hear back from a carrier. I still cannot understand how they can ramp up to 150K units per year while they are struggling delivering only 5k units or so produced...
  9. 2023 ordering date Open 8/9/22 - Scheduling 9/1

    One thing to keep on mind here is, in average, EVs hold their value better than ICE. Yes, you pay more when you are buying it but you get more when you sell it as well. So even if you are planning to keep it for a short time, you don't necessarily need to break even with the gas and maintenance...
  10. 2023 ordering date Open 8/9/22 - Scheduling 9/1

    From what I understand of the new law, if you get into a binding agreement in 22 and get your vehicle delivered in 23 you can still claim the existing law. That means $80k cap doesn't apply. The catch is, by then it's highly likely the rebate will be $3750 or $1875 but it's better than nothing.

    Ford support told me it's tbd but i don't see it on that site.

    Great, now I lost my estimated delivery date!
  13. How do you charge for a trip?

    I never said charge to 90% on dc fast charging. I actually said the opposite and it has nothing to do with your statement. You said, "Charging to 100% at home before you leave gives you about an hour more range on that first leg." which is inaccurate and I pointed that out. Again the benefit of...
  14. How do you charge for a trip?

    You do realize you are talking about 10% charge difference. The cost savings is pretty insignificant, and no it wont give you an hour more range by charging to 100% vs 90%. For extended range, 10% is about 13kWh and with highways speeds you are using 1.8-2 miles per kWh so best case scenario you...

    I got excited when they activated mine almost month ago but it has been torturous just tracking the truck sitting in a parking lot doing nothing and now being driven back to the factory. I guess not knowing is better sometimes :)

    My truck is now progressing backwards. They drove it back to the factory. It's now sitting there. I wouldn't be surprised if they start disassembling with my luck ?
  17. OEM running boards for PRO

    I appreciate it. I arranged to pick it up from an owner local by me doing the same thing. Thanks for reaching out
  18. How do you charge for a trip?

    Depending on charger availability and how far you are traveling, usually there is no reason to charge to 100% even for long distance travel. The best way to plan your long distance travel is to aim for a charger you can travel using 80% or so battery to give yourself buffer, arrive between 5-10%...
  19. ✅ 5/30 Lightning Build Week Group

    My delivery still shows between July 23-29th but there is still no movement. Talked to the dealer and he is pretty confident I will not get it by the 29th. So I am guessing the system will update in a few days with a new date on it most likely to Aug 5th or so. Very disappointing.
