I think a lot of EA problems get pushed off as being a CCS problem when really its a company/business problem. When problems occur at an EA station, most of the time its because of EA incompetence-- not a CCS specific problem. I honestly don't know why they haven't figured it out yet..maybe its...
I honestly don't think this will dent CCS development one bit in the short term.
If the market takes off like everyone seems to predict, there will be more than enough demand for both CCS and Tesla. We're gonna need everyone on board to satisfy demand. For example, take a look at what is...
I think Ford is going to add the Tesla Superchargers to the Blue Oval Charge Network. IN that case, all the payment would be handled by the Connected Services/Charge network app using the CC on file. I am hoping this would mean thatthe superchargers will be plug and charge capable-- no use of...
With all the hype about the V2H capability, I just don't see Ford ditching the CCS port altogether. I'm hoping it will have both a CCS port and a Tesla port.
(Also I could see Ford not wanting to piss off Fleet customers who may have invested heavily into charging infrastructure based on...
If interested in attending the event on June 17th...become a member of the Northeast Lightning group on Facebook and RSVP there.
Any Albany (or upstate NY) Lightning folks want to caravan down to NJ for the summer BBQ June 17th? I'm thinking we could meet up somewhere along the Turnpike just...

Likewise, I've given $100 to Stellantis to buy my place in line to order a RAM. I'm a Ford guy and love my Lightning..but 500mi and faster charging speed would push me towards RAM. I do think RAM competes more with t3 and silverado EV/GMC than it does current Lightning.
I'm not really a fan of...
If you are using the adaptive cruise control with lane centering active (non hands free)--blue steering wheel icon above the charge meter....a double ding may indicate the lane centering has shut off. This could be because the camera cannot see the lines OR the road curves too much. I get it at...
There is still a huge market out there of people who didn't have a reservation yet.
They will still probably sell every truck they can produce through 2025..gen 2.
The thing about Tesla is price drops and rises with Elon's mood swings. (j/k--maybe)
My opinion, but this is more stressful to me than dealing with a dealer. Say you're planning to purchase, you go to the bank to get financing...then go to order 2 days later and the price is up $10,000.
or...
If you think the Cybertruck is going to sell for the same price as the Lightning (even after the price increase)..you're in for an even more rude awakening.
My guess is over $100k(possibly a lot more). More in line with Hummer than Lightning.
You're kidding right?
Blue Oval is massive in size and massive in investment.
The construction pics are all over the internet and Ford had a huge media shindig there last week. Farley is "all in" on EVs without a doubt.
The Lightning PRO was unsustainable at $39k. It was ridiculous at that...
