  1. Got the Truck yesterday Newbie

    Yes, my 2024 Flash of course has the CCS port so I need the adapter if I want to use Tesla DC Fast Chargers. Personally, I wouldn't bother with the CHAdeMO adapter; didn't even know they made one of those. I understand they are being phased out. I do have a Tesla Destination Charger adapter...
  2. Announcing: Tesla Superchargers + Connected Navigation

    Well, that's true. But I guess I'm not sure what "connected services" means. I understand using the navigation and Alexa. But if there are any OTA updates I'll have to wait until I'm in a cell tower area or park in one of the signal areas close to me until it's done. Also, I understand the...
  3. Announcing: Tesla Superchargers + Connected Navigation

    But don't you have to have AT&T to connect to WiFi? I don't get a cell signal at my house as I live in a cell signal desert. I can get about two bars on my phone about a couple of blocks from my house but have to use WiFi calling at home. But my provider uses Verizon or T-mobile for data, not...
  4. Got the Truck yesterday Newbie

    Just received my adapter yesterday on Feb 15. I bought my Flash in early September and ordered the adapter a few days after that. I think it was free up until the end of September 2024. Almost resigned myself that something happened and I wasn't gonna get it. Kind of weird that it seemed to...
  5. Truck Recommended Plugging in in Cold Weather

    This is exactly the question. Simply put. Did you ever get an answer? My Flash keeps warning me essentially, that the weather is very cold (it's gotten below 0 F in Idaho lately) and that I should plug in. But at the same time I don't want to have it sit there in the cold fully charged. I...
  6. NACS Adapter Estimate Shipping

    Yes, same here. But now The Ford.com website shows my order with an order number, but when I try to track it's progress, it won't accept this order number. Up until now they informed me that the shipment for the accessory had been delayed until Jan. Maybe they're hoping I will forget.
  7. Battery issue at 100% only 298 miles

    What is the dealer dash? We've had our Lightning Flash for about two months. Charged several times; a couple of times to 100%. Never seen 320 miles range. Not even close. One time I noticed my new tires were about 4 lbs low; but I filled them up to spec and it made no diff. Something...
  8. Lightning asked to be plugged in last night because it was cold.

    So, what SOC limit do you use when you plug it in all night. If you weren't driving it the next day would you still plug it in?
  9. HV battery range seems very low after AC charging

    Thanks for the replies fellows. This is not our first EV - we have a 2024 EV6 Wind and a CPH50 EVSE. We were buying a 2022 EV6 Wind that we bought in Sept. of 2022. But following an accident last memorial day weekend it was totaled by the insurance co. mainly due to damage underneath to the...
  10. Easy way to safely access backup power for home and free (for some PG&E customers)

    Looks like the switch has an indicator light when utility power is available.
  11. Garage too small. Anyone park outside? In the snow?

    So, you leave it on all night? Maybe turn off the lights and make sure other things are off? I've not tried this. They warm up so fast though that I'd think 15 min. or so initiated by the phone app would be enough to get going in the A.M. In the Idaho mountains where I live though, ice is...
  12. HV battery range seems very low after AC charging

    I may want to keep it. I'm hoping that in 3 years things will be different and they may pay me to take it off their hands:angel: Not really, but they might not to hold me to the residual value because I don't know if I could afford to finance it. The lease was pretty reasonable.
  13. HV battery range seems very low after AC charging

    Sept.3 we leased a 2024 lightning Flash. So far we've only charged it twice. The last time I charged it at home on my Chargepoint home charger from about 30% to 75%. The mileage/range showing now on the truck is 195miles. That seems awfully low to me for 75% battery on a Flash with an...
