  1. 2023 Lightning ordering starts in August?

    Hope so too, looking forward to converting my first day reservation to an order! I guess we’ll know by the end of the week, they’ll certainly release pricing/ build pages ahead of ordering.
  2. 2023 Lightning ordering starts in August?

    Wasn’t this posted earlier but with the caveat that it’s for fleet ordering only? Almost nobody on here would qualify for that.
  3. Ford EV Tax Credits May Run Out Sooner Than Expected

    If it’s a close one by 9/30 and they have half a brain, they will delay delivery of a few thousand vehicles to 10/1 just to keep the credit for another quarter. I think Tesla did just that when they were in this situation a couple years ago.
  4. TFL made it to Fairbanks

    I fully get your reasoning for calling it a stunt because they pre planned for generator aka Powerboost charging. But: wouldn’t it be possible to make that trip using maybe 120V outlets for (very slow) charging? Or are there simply none there? I’ve never been up there.
  5. Sign our Petition to Make Tesla Superchargers and Plugs the U.S. Standard

    Thank you guys so much for bringing this silly argument over here. Saves me much time by not having to hop over to electrek and read it over there for the. umpteenth. time.
  6. Fleet Lightning info possible insight to MY23 order info

    Now if everyone else in America could please be this sane and rational about their finances…
  7. Great News-- GM/Pilot will build 2000 EvGO chargers at 500 locations along US Highways

    Is that the lizard that wants to help you save hundreds on car insurance?
  8. Ford EV Tax Credits May Run Out Sooner Than Expected

    Thank you! Exact opposite here in Mississippi unfortunately. Never even get a reply. Signs of the times….
  9. Ford EV Tax Credits May Run Out Sooner Than Expected

    Yes, let’s call them. They supposedly work for us?
  10. Simple Question: Can I use my current generator (gas/portable) hookup to my box?

    How about one out of two?? Seriously, I’ll ? do that and post results here….when ever…I get….my truck. Pretty sure someone will beat me to it , and I’m perfectly happy with that!
  11. Simple Question: Can I use my current generator (gas/portable) hookup to my box?

    Well I haven’t tried it yet! Haven’t even been able to order the truck yet (reserved during reveal), but I researched this a few months back because I’d love to use the exact same setup at my house. Seems so much easier if you don’t mind flipping the lockout switch the few times a year the power...
  12. Simple Question: Can I use my current generator (gas/portable) hookup to my box?

    On the Powerboost forum someone said it will work IF you disconnect the ground in the male plug that you plug into the outlet on the truck. Only neutral and the two hots will be connected. This will bypass the truck’s GFCI tripping. Easy enough to try out. Caution: truck will not be grounded.
  13. Is the Lariat worth $40k more than the Pro?

    Hey! Let’s not give Ford any crazy ideas before they announce MY 2023 pricing….right?
  14. What are my options for charging?

    With no plans to use the HIS, and usually only using 40-50%, you don’t need to change anything. Just charge at 40 amps and only upgrade if that turns out to be insufficient.
  15. Any rumors about the next wave of orders and MY 2023 orders?

    I asked Farley directly on Twitter and, surprise! No answer. We’ll see some movement soon, I’m just hoping there won’t be any more dealer/ZEV prioritization. I didn’t like it the first time, Ford repeating the same mistake would just be an insult at this point.
  16. Ford Charge Station Pro Unboxing and Install Guide

    That’s strange. How can they not know that?
  17. [WTF, North Carolina?] North Carolina’s plan to ban free EV charging is an environmental disgrace [WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Slight difference in that the parking spot is a one time expense and the electricity would be a continuously recurring one. Around here we have ChargePoint EVSEs in government owned locations. The government entity paid for the installation, but the user pays for the electricity through their CP...
  18. Catalytic converter theft on F150 Lightning

    Both good points. I’d be willing to bet that they made it traceable with at least a unique ID number, it’s just too valuable not to.
  19. First quick trip in my Lightning Platinum got a lot of attention

    OP did state cruise was on almost the whole time. When you’re in cruise, efficiency is not affected by what drive/brake mode is selected.
  20. Break-in period?

    Do people break in their cordless drills for the first week or so? Didn’t think so.
