I use one pedal sparingly, mostly in stop and go traffic where it's a godsend to not constantly shift from one pedal to the other. Much the rest of the time, Sports Mode is great. Foot off the accelerator is akin to downshifting, there's minimal brake use, and the batteries get rewarded with...
I like Blue Cruise, though last night on Rt. 2 in MA, a highway that's a little rough in spots, BC put the truck through a couple of sudden lurches that had my hands back on the wheel, pronto. $500/annum? No way, though I might join the 10/month club.
Apparently some of the newer Flashes are over anxious to perceived Attention Deficit Disorder, and Ford has hired a therapist to program an OTA couch session.
Though glad I own an extended range Lariat and something of a hyper miler, I'm not too concerned with the varying mileage I get that often does not add up to the EPA advertised. Instead, I focus on the great advantages of being free from petrol and related fossil fuels; and having my own home...
Never thought I would value it so, but the heated steering wheel is a big contributor to comfort in cold weather. I find the combination of that, plus the cabin heat set to the lowest level, plus the heated seats, fend off the chill of our New England winters pretty well. That said, in recent...
My dealer finally got back to me (though I wasn't pressing them) and performed (updated) the Battery Management System and the software update for the Inoperative Front Parking Sensors. (The camera resolution seems much improved; is that an outcome of the update, or because I never bothered to...
What a ride, and the only real problems I've had with my Lariat ER have been self-inflicted (broken mirrors.) And yes, I think I'd be more comfortable with something not quite so huge.
But as so many others have noted, home charging is such a breeze, especially with solar panels further...
Using sport mode is an excellent down-shifter for me, for braking and regenerating going down hills, and also for anticipating stopped traffic ahead by taking the foot off the accelerator pedal and coasting which allows for little actual brake use. Then, there's that certain satisfaction of a...
Update on A.M. receptivity: It comes through fine and clear when at a stop, but as soon as truck moves there is accompanying static; presumably from electric interference with operation. Anyone else experiencing this?
