Well, the only reason is my son may have days that he would need to replenish close to 65% battery in 8 hours. I’m just considering winter, assuming drop to 1.5 miles per kW and needing to replenish 130ish miles of range by the next morning. Isolated case, but maybe a reality with no ICE...
I REALLY appreciate you all helping me! THANKS!
One question…. If my son and I are both preconditioning before work, will the one on a 40A circuit with a 32A EVSE still precondition WITHOUT taking juice from the battery? I’ve read it has to be on a 40A minimum.
So I’m more confused. Probably due to ignorance. Accept my apologies.
Order guide says the peak level 2 charging rate on a 2024 Flash is 11.3kW. I’m assuming in a perfect world, that is effectively saying a Lever 2 EVSE sucking a full 50 amps on a 220V circuit could deliver 11,000 watts, or...
I’m kind of amazed at how many chargers have popped up since I traded off my 2022 lightning. It’s been under a year, but it’s staggering. Then, add all the Tesla chargers that are available, which I usually see vacant, and it seems to really Take hold of the rain, anxiety and throw it out the...
OMG! Look at all the love!
I’m close to pulling the trigger. I really wish I could swing a Lariat, but a Flash may be in my future. In fact, my son might do the same. We just have to figure out charging arrangements. Thanks for all the replies. I always say, my 2022 Lightning was the best...
Let’s be truthful. No BS, no sugar. Would you buy another?
I ask because I still maintain my 2022 Lightning was the best Ford truck I can remember in 40 years. Solid. Yes, teething, but it was new technology. I had issues, but the biggest was range. The standard just didn’t cut it for me...
Don’t worry guys. ? I figured it out.
After spending 45 minutes on the phone with Ford, I found out none of you have the trip planner with the new Ford Pass update. It’s only on the Truck’s screen. I would have thought someone would have told me that at least.
I guess Ford is working on the...
What am I missing here? What is this providing me that I didn’t already have? Is this because the new Ford Pass sucks and they are trying to go back in time? With my 2022 Lightning with the original app, I pulled in, it recognized my truck by VIN (participating vendors) and charged and billed...
So I’ve read on Ford’s site that with the Pro Charger, on an 80amp circuit, it can charge a Lightning with an extended range battery at 30 miles per hour. But then, today, another ford site, I read 20. What is it?
My Ford Connected Charger with my 2022 standard range would charge as high as...
They just gave DEALERS incentives. Sell 1-9, get $1,000 each. Sell 1-15, get $1,500. Sell 15, get $22,500. The DEALER gets it, not the buyer… unless they chose to use that to sweeten a deal. Good 10/15 through 11/15. Have to take trucks from the distribution centers.
Illinois has 0% for 66 months with $2,000 credit if you don’t take the charger offer. I have a $2,500 PCO on top. Looking hard a 2024 Flash. Now that Ford has a storage yard in Chicago with tons of stock pre-built, I can have exactly what I want in little as 5 days.
Im not putting faith in...
So I’m seriously considering another Lightning. This time an ER. Likely a Flash. I don’t really need the charger promotion, and would rather take the $2,000 credit. BUT, should I get a Ford Charger? I had the Ford Connected with my SR Lariat, and it did integrate nice with FordPass (then)...
I just got a $2,500 PCO. Now I’m looking at an ER Lightning. It goes through January 2, 2025, so I gave time. I’d like to know how long the 0% for 66 months Flex goes for with the additional $2000.
I traded out of my SR because I had some personal duties with family that the SR couldn’t...
Don’t get excited. I have an STX. It’s bare bones for the app. The old version was 10x better. You can’t check tire pressure in the truck on the dash while moving, but can from the app. Such a great design. You’ll know when the tires flat, though.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand the base price for each vehicle just went up $3,000. Nothing is free. Ford is just whispering sweet nothings in our ears, while slipping the shmeat….
I just sold my Ford Connected Charger. I would hope I could choose the Connected over the Pro when I buy my next Lightning...
