I received this update last night as well on my 2023 XLT SR. I have ACC and I also have the Speed Sign Recognition turned on. I will try to see if this makes any changes to my truck's habits. There is a stretch of road very close to my house that this curve slowing feature would be very welcome...
I have the A2Z version of this cable and it has worked on 3 different EVs I have owned while I have had it for maybe 2 years now? I use it daily on the Lightning. It even works on my previously owned, very finicky, 2019 Bolt. I charge at the full 48 amp capability of my charger. It is a very...
I have a 1923 Ford T and a 2023 Lightning, they share a garage. I long ago swapped out the original Ford four banger for a chevy 350 and TH350 tranny. I have to admit, it never occurred to me they are 100 years apart... The other occupants of that garage are a 64 Meyers Manx and my wife's 2025...
I almost exclusively use FPL (Florida Power and Light) DCFC chargers when running around the state and Tesla outside FL. Price has been a solid $0.30 for several years from FPL without any subscription plans. However, as of 1/2026, that goes up to $0.45 systemwide. That's a 50% increase. There...
So here’s my experience towing a 8.5’x20’ enclosed flat nose car hauler with my ‘23 SR in the Orlando area. I wIl get 98 miles from 100% to 10% left almost every time I haul one of my fairly lightweight cars behind my truck. I found 55-60 to be optimal on a mix of back roads and freeways. I...
I have had this happen many times both on my 2023 SR and on my 2019 Chevy Bolt over the last few years when charging only at EA DCFCs. I spoke to an EA tech rep a few years back and they said that their DCFC connector contacts to the vehicles charge port can act up as they get older and the...
I have 28 % xpel ceramic all around and the same on windscreen to the AS1 line. it is a massive upgrade from stock and came from the tint shop with a Florida State compliance sticker affixed to door jamb that the Florida Highway Patrol looked at once when I got stopped for it. They just nodded...
I have an A2Z extension cord in use on my hardwired Enel Juicebox V2 with a OpenEVSE board inside. It has worked without fail on my Lightning, Chevy Equinox EV and Chevy Bolt. I have been running it at 48amp amp max output of the Juicebox. Seems to be just fine but it does get slightly warm but...
I installed FordPass 5.28 on Sept 15th via standard Apple APP Update facility and my home screen doesn't look anything like that. I am missing the "controls" button and the "Productivity and PRO Power" sections and I certainly have the 9.6 Pro Power. I am on IOS 26.1 Beta. I have a 2023 SR.
Washington state electricity is cheap because of the Federal Columbia River Power System (aka Grand Coulee/Bonneville/etc hydroelectric system). Built starting in like the late 1930's by the ACOE. I think Grand Coulee is still the biggest hydro plant in the USA. That is some amazing renewable...
It's another choice that can be made, I wouldn't agree it is a good financial one or maybe even an environmental one. The cost of a large BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) at utility scale is immense but declining AND it is just another source of intermittent power. You still need something...
There is a complex cost relationship between utility provided intermittent renewable energy generation and the need for utility natural gas (generally) equivalent dispatch-able power generation for when the renewable sources fail to shine or blow. Many states are running the basically flawed...
I have googled around, searched the forums and I have Carplay in my Chevy Bolt since 2019 and I still do not know the answer to the following.
When you have a route in progress on the iphone and put your finger on the Lightning display screen with the map open and drag the screen around to view...
