  1. Is Solar / Sunrun a Good Deal for You? Calculations and Things to Consider

    OK - Let's see if I have this right. With my $80K Lightning Lariat ER I have a giant 131kW Battery in my driveway. The Grid goes down and I want to use my stored Lightning DC electricity in my house. Ford gave me a "Free" Ford 80a Charge Station Pro cord to get the juice to the house. Now I...
  2. Is Solar / Sunrun a Good Deal for You? Calculations and Things to Consider

    Quoting your annual electric usage means very little unless calculations are also added in for battery storage and/or net metering (including differing rates for Time-of-Use and net vs. gross rates including taxes, fees, & surcharges by the utility).

  15. My F150 Lightning Platinum is at the dealership; picking up tomorrow!

    I think the real reason for slow Production to Deliveries is now becoming evident. Ford has chosen to take the heat by holding back that final step and doing hands-on testing on a batch of customer and mannequin Lightnings. It is exciting to be a very early Lightning Owner but you guys are...

  20. Chest fridge for frunk

    Maybe a tiny exhaust fan in the drain hole? :unsure: But, anyway.... I will not know for sure until my Lightning arrives.
