....stab, to full throttle and then relatively quickly back off. Agreed, WOT is the only meaningful way to do this. I did also say it was not a good test. . Did slightly better testing a short while ago. . at low speed going full throttle peaked just under 1300amps. . as speed increases...

Obviously they are not the exact same thing, no crap. Nobody is asking for anyone persons personal favorite. For the purpose of testing to determine if there is reduced performance they are practically the same. As I said, using HVB current is a more accurate method as it is directly...

The truck has much more coarse control but it will light up the signs. Mostly I find it lights them up, then strobes a little, and then goes full blast. I actually think it believes the sign might be another car and subtly pulses the light to ensure it isnt

1/4 mile or 0-60, same thing

At the end of the day 1/4 mile is not a very good way to measure this effect. Not only is there the fact that most people dont have 1/4 mile times of their truck, traction will always be an issue, there is also the fact that 1/4 mile runs are easy to predict and if Ford was really trying to...

I dont disagree, however I also dont see any benifit to me. I could set a charge time closer to my departure time however it would still be heating at the beginning of the cycle and cooling off before I drive it, so wasted BTUs. I could set a departure time, but then I'm heating the battery...

Nobody here is debating that in some particular cases a cover could increase efficiency. What we ARE discussing is if a cover affects the efficiency of THE LIGHTNING. A short cab long bed at 50mph, yeah possibly. Our crew cab short bed, we'll we have lots of accounts that people have NOT seen...

No, can charge at any time. In the end though regardless of when it charges I have no use for the heat in the battery. If it helps or protects the battery i can see it, but otherwise I just wish it kept the battery cold and charged it up. Probably another thing that would be nice to have...

My tests have the battery being warmed to 60f when a charge cycle is initiated. As I plug in during the evening I find this frustrating, quite a bit of energy is lost warming the battery at 8pm, just to have a cold battery at 8am to drive 20min to work and have the truck sit outside all day...

You are literally the only person anywhere here has associated the word "shall" with the 90% number. Maybe its a lack of understanding how the English language works but saying Ford said shall, or others say Fod says shall, is still you associating Ford wirh the word shall.

Actually, US Lightning owners trucking down the road for thousands of miles and not noticing a difference IS what matters, that is the practical application, that is where it impacts us. And details matter, a lab test of a super cab with a 6 or 8 foot bed at 55mpg may show results, but that...

Having driven in England i can tell you that the Lightning would SUCK to drive on a LOT of their roads. Half of that place just paved the horse paths, paths that were tight for two horses to pass. Here our speed limit is a minimum, over there the speed limit seems to be a goal for those with a...

Bambi mode won't do anything on the Lightning since we dont have fog lights. Fwiw I STRONGLY recomend against anyone enabling Bambi mode in the first place. Increased lighting on the roadway directly in front of you (the design of fog lights) restricts your distance vision.

There is no set answer. Popular options like the BFG KO3s are well like here just as they are for the ice trucks, but expect a moderate loss in range. Other options like the Toyo at3 EV or the Pirelli XTM Elect are also well liked and should have less range loss. Ultimately aside from the...

Did you seriously just write what, five THOUSAND characters in response? Yes, I did read your previous response, but apparently you didnt bother to try and understand mine. Im not reading that missif and frankly ten words in where you cant understand that a 4.9 making a PEAK torque, at one...

Did you look at the individual results on virus total? How many flagged it as malware?

There might ve some points in there if you weren't relying on grandstanding so much. If you have to be that condescending to make a point your might be arguing from an emotional perspective rather than a logical one. The simple fact of the matter is that on our trucks, trucks that are VERY...

Because thats the way it has been done does not mean that is the best way to do it. The reason torque applied to the wheel is actually a very good way to do it is because that IS what the vehicle is going to experience, not the torque at the flywheel. The torque value at the wheel directly...

Rumor has it the rear shocks are the same in design as the previous generation front shocks. I have not seen anyone directly confirm this however.

You can run applications through VirusTotal for a better sense of security concerns. I recomend taking a few seconds to understand how virus total works. Bottom line, false positives are a thing.
