Yesterday, I went out of my way to get an EA charge because this location that had 6 chargers and has been down for over 3 weeks. Saw on the EA app that 8 chargers were available. Drove in and found a team of installers finishing work on the new EA 350kW HyperFast chargers. Initially I drove...

Received a Ford EA survey and they had a LOT of questions on the rollout, information, features, improvements. Took over 10 minutes to complete the survey. Looks like Ford cares about future OTA updates.

How is the Ford Pass Connected services transferred from the original owner to a second owner ? Does it need to go thru a Ford dealer or contact FoMoCo ? I know how to wipe the Sync system but didn't know how to handle the transfer to the second owner.

Today I checked my Ford Pass app and saw 2 Ford EVs show up: '22 Lightning and '23 Mustang Mach E Yesterday I got modules that populated and a tear tag on the MME. It's been a long road from order to build - April 2022 order lost my color choice (ice blue silver) to match my Lightning, but it...

How does one get into the Ford's EA program ?

Received an email from a EV Navigator rep to be a host to show off my Lightning at the Glendale City Hall sponsored by Glendale Water & Power on a Saturday. They said they have a variety of vehicles and want to have owners present, answer questions from the public, and to allow test drives...

Bought this charger at $459 last summer and use it between 2 EVs. I get a full 11kW output hardwired to 60A breakers even in the scorching hot temps of So Cal. 11kW is the max charge ability on an SR Lightning as it has a single onboard charger = you get the most possible charging for the SR...

At the LA Auto Show this past weeekend, got to see a Platinum trim Ford Lightning power up a trailer towed ticket kiosk! Very cool - it was running power from the bed. Here I am in shorts pointing to the Platinum trim - only in So Cal where temps are still in the 80's....

Funny email received from Ford: As an F‑150 Lightning reservation or order holder, we have an exclusive experience just for you! Register here to skip the line and secure your F‑150 Lightning ride with a professional driver on the Ford display at the Los Angeles Auto Show. I already have...

As I was driving in my work van, I noticed there were signs around a bridge that had 3T weight limit. How is this weight limit restriction going to affect EVs that weigh more than 3 tons ? EVs are going to become more common and the weight is a concern for not only bridges, but older roads...

Saw this on a MME forum and wanted to know if this might be of benefit to Lightning owners who use public DCFC. How does MME charging compare to Lightning using the same DCFC ?

Since most of California is in the worst drought of the decade, I wanted to wash my Lightning without use of water = waterless washing. So mother nature had dropped some rain last night leaving a muddy mess - instead of hosing down the truck to wash it, I pulled out the Meguiar's Quik Detailer...

iPhone 12 Pro in Pacific Blue was getting too small for my aging eyes and decided to get a larger screen iPhone. How does the actual phone color do against Ford's ice blue silver paint ?? So far it charges on the Qi wireless Lightning charger even with the bigger camera protrusion.. No issues...

Joined a So Calif Tesla EV club road trip group of over 60 EVs from Inland Empire to Las Vegas this past weekend. Leaving from CA to NV was great as I had 100% charge and only needed to stop once in Baker, CA where our group over took the entire Tesla SC and EA charge stations. Video showing a...

Has anyone had their 2023 orders have their heated steering wheel, heated seats, and heated mirrors are being deleted ? Is this for real ?

Yesterday on my way home, I stopped by a Target store and saw an EA DCFC and needed to charge. Plugged in and saw the $ per wattage go up and up, set the max charge to 90% and went shopping. Came out 45 minutes later and it had stopped at 90%. There were all of a sudden a line of other EVs...

While cleaning out my Lightning's glove box, I found I had transferred from my old gasser - ARCO Fleet Gas card. Felt so good to cut it up and cancel the commercial account after years of gasoline purchases. Does anybody know of an EV credit card, business commercial card or other means of...
