The Ford Pass App calculates all the values to try and give you ball park how much it charged. The most accurate is the energy added kwh charged. The rest is reference but not that accurate. Charging a battery is not like filling it up with a liquid.
Distance Added: The miles added are...
I only have 5k on my 23 lariat and have not noticed much wear yet. I anticipated that these Hankook tires would not last and most likely with the weight of this truck tires of any type will wear out sooner than expected. I feel though that the trade off of not much maintenance needed on this...
A while back I had a power outage over the night till noon. I turned on the truck and used the truck to power everything I needed. It stayed on all night and until I shut it off. This is the first time I heard of a power down timer.
I use to use only the information in Ford Pass and keep track in Excel, but I found it not very accurate and at times kind of misleading since the miles added does not agree with the actual miles driven. I switched to using the actual mileage on the truck and only the kwh charged to track from...
The trouble with the dealers is that they all received equipment, but never used it or unboxed it. Some of the equipment was missing and some didn't even work. The trouble is since they do not know what they are missing until they start working on it they find misc parts like cables missing...
It sounds like this was a high speed incident to cause that much damage. This not just casual driving around the block. What the hell was he test driving in the first place? That type of service of cabin filter and rotate tires does not require a road test. Rotating tires does not effect...
I am disappointed they did not include battery size since that does have an effect on how fast it charges. If the Ioniq 6 had the same size battery as the Lightning it would probably be the same amount of time, but the Ioniq 6 would have like a 1600 mile range or something crazy.
Get a Battery Health report from them when you take it in. See the youtube video.
It helped me understand and also I requested a Battery Health report after the work was done. To to compare before and after.
I would take it to be checked out. I had almost the same message and it was a battery module. I had to have it replaced at 2,281 miles. Make sure you pick a Dealer that has already done a module replacement otherwise you could be waiting for your for a month in a half like me for a shop that...
There is all kinds of miss information and myths about EV Batteries. I found this youtube video I think explains how to get the most and longest life out of you battery.
The Truth about EV Battery Life and Charging Best Practice.
I have begun treating my Lightning like my iphone with the...
Not that impressed with the Cybertruck. Heck he won't even put the Tesla brand anywhere on the truck. Glad I made the choice of the Lightning.
Things I will not have to concern myself about with a Lightning compared with a Cybertruck
1. I will be able to see out my rear view mirror.
2. I...
I bought my Lightning in July. I had ordered a Lariat with standard battery in March, but when prices dropped in July I canceled my order and bought one at a dealer all the same in my order, but with extended battery for no more than I was going to pay for the standard battery. The dealer...
If you make the trade make sure it is an extended battery not the standard, otherwise I don't think it would be an even trade. The VIN number has "EV" for extended and the standard has an "EL" in the middle of the VIN. Get a Lariat or above.
The Lightning is my first truck. I could never...
I had a 14-50 receptacle in the garage connected to a 50a breaker in my sub 100a panel. I just connected a wired 14-50 plug and cord 50a to my FCSP and set the FCSP to 40a and it works great (10kwh). You can have any electrician install a 14-50 receptacle and add a breaker to your panel. You do...
