I'm glad you're enjoying it, but you couldn't pay me to take an interstate road trip in my SR. The supercharger prices are more expensive than fuel, have to drive 15-20 mph slower, and add roughly 50% time to a road trip (my typical south Florida to S Georgia goes from a 6 hour to a 9 hour trip)...
I don’t know if anyone else had this experience, but I had to disable plug and charge via FordPass. Fordpass wouldn’t recognize my membership with EA, and was charging retail instead of membership prices. After disabling plug and charge since via FordPass and using the charge appropriate app, I...
Charging anywhere but home is the bain of the EV experience. If you MUST charge on the road, have the proper app installed for the charge network you're going to use, and set up an account. This will require a CC number. You can't just whip out a CC and pay at these EV chargers.
The first...

I think you hit the nail on the head, "The more I drive my Flash..."
Most don't have the opportunity to daily drive your Flash- but if they did, I bet they'd want one too!
Unless you're towing, or regularly taking long road trips, it's just better, in every category. My friends that gave...
Ford roadside got me in.
unlock and lock work fine now. Will test later when I get home to determine if the key being inside the cabin was a fluke or normal.
Thanks to all those who replied.
I may have, but always had a duplicate on my person. I’m not sure.
If having the key inside the vehicle disables the unlock feature of the app, I’m a bit confused at the usefulness of such a feature.
No door code on my pro.
This is the first time I’ve ever depended on FordPass and didn’t sneak a key in a pocket just in case.
it’s also the first time FordPass failed to work. Entirely frustrating. No one at ford can unlock remotely. Going to be a couple hours waiting for roadside assistance...
I just locked my truck with the key inside via FordPass about an hour ago while biking. Trying to unlock with FordPass and it just won’t??
Am I missing something?
Great write-up, thanks for posting. Haven’t been there in ages, but you drove right by my hometown of Gig Harbor. Love that area, camping around there is heaven
Seems like small potatoes to me. If you want a lower price go somewhere else.
Honestly, it sounds like they’ve been nothing but honest with you, and I’m having a really hard time understanding what the problem is, why you feel you’re entitled to a discount, and why you would take it to a...
Estimated mileage has nothing to do with actual. Driving habits, speed, wind, temp, and elevation do.
A bad cell won't typically manifest as decreased estimated mileage- it will likely manifest first as rapidly changing estimated during a drive, less available power, or decreased battery charge...
I believe the answer on this is clear and unequivocal.
The answer is, it depends. It's entirely dependent on the vehicle. On most vehicles, it's necessary to rotate on some type of schedule (which can vary wildly) to keep tire wear even.
However, there are plenty of vehicles out there that...

Despite the clickbate headline, ev batteries hold up much better than the general public seem to realize
I occasionally get some messages on my infotainment screen when shutting down, and starting my 2023 SR PRO.
In addition to “f150 Lightning unblocked” when starting, I’ll also randomly receive “f150 Lightning saved” message when turning it off, as well as something about turning off to save the...
Just used that Ford supplied adapter for the first time a few minutes ago.
Work seamlessly. The Tesla app worked perfectly, little pricey, but well worth it. Charge curve was great, went right up to about 155KWh, stayed there until I hit 50% then dropped to 109. I unplugged at that point...
True, however, think of your entire house as an extension cord from the breaker box. Assuming connections are tight, there’s no reason using large enough wiring won’t be an issue in the correct circumstances.
As a general rule of thumb, I completely agree, you should not use an extension...
