  1. Epic Truck Camping Weekend in the Rain

    Yes, a fix of the PPO power off would be nice, but the work around is so easy. I'm not holding my breath to get Ford to fix it..
  2. Fun GPS status display

    GLONASS is a Russian based equivalent of the US based GPS (originally called NavStar). Just as Galileo is a European based system and BeiDou is a Chinese based system. All four of them work on a fairly similar operational concept. GPS is the oldest system of the four (updated several times...
  3. Pro Power reserve limit fails

    Not at all. What is important is that you have enough reserve to get to a charging station - regardless of what percentage of battery that takes to get there. OK, granted the GOM is not exactly the most accurate thing...
  4. Fun GPS status display

    In your opinion - not mine. Are you implying that it must be in Russia because it is seeing GLONASS satellites? Not the case. GLONASS like Galileo, GPS, and BeiDou is a global system. I just looked at my NTP server here in southern California, and it is receiving 9 GLONASS satellites (using...
  5. Pro Power reserve limit fails

    I have had PPO shut down on reserve, but it was correctly. I am pretty sure it was set to a range.
  6. Fun GPS status display

    That is cool for us geeks. I'll have to look at that...
  7. How often to charge to 100%?

    According to my charging session spreadsheet, I have charged to 100% 24 times out of 249 charge sessions. All of those were on L2. Almost half of those were allowed to go to 100% because it was free. The rest were at home because I was going to be making a long drive the next day. This is in...
  8. Fuse for rear seat 12V accessory outlet

    Yea, I did a quickie one with the shell installed. I'll get a better one (likely at a two way radio site) next time I'm at one.
  9. 2027 Ford F-150 Thunder And Lightning Debuts As All-New EREV Pickup

    My first thought was "You've got to be kidding" - and then I realized what date it was. A whole bunch of negatives about that implementation. Glad it's just an April Fools joke.
  10. Just completed longest trip, 5,461 miles

    That would too easy and logical - obviously something Ford wont do :(
  11. A good time to buy used????

    20 KWH from the wall - more like 15 KWH into the battery (at best on both numbers).
  12. Fuse for rear seat 12V accessory outlet

    Assuming it really is fuse 34 (same label in the description for my 24), the fuse is not blown. So much for the easy answer. Note however that the description of how to access the fuse box is FAR more complex than it needs to be. It implies that all four covers in the frunk need to be removed...
  13. Fuse for rear seat 12V accessory outlet

    Yes, the manual lists a couple of fuses labeled "Power Point", but that did not mean anything to me. I'm glad that removing the cover is not that hard. Reading the manual made it seem to be a major project just to get the cover off.
  14. Where did you buy your extended Ford warranty?

    You really don't know ANYBODY who lives outside California? They don't even have to do anything as far as I know..
  15. A good time to buy used????

    I am not a fan of 1 pedal mode and fortunately, Ford makes it optional (default is normal 2 pedal mode). In my opinion, when operating in 2 pedal mode, the feel is about as close as you can get to driving an ICE with an automatic transmission. Note that regardless of 1 pedal vs 2 pedal mode...
  16. Fuse for rear seat 12V accessory outlet

    Anyone know what fuse powers the rear seat 12V accessory outlet? I went to plug in my portable air compressor and found the outlet dead. First guess is the fuse. Of course the manual was of zero help as there is nothing listed as being for the accessory outlet. And list it looks like major...
  17. A good time to buy used????

    Battery replacements are the one of the EV Haters weapons. In reality, the battery will almost certainly last longer than the rest of the truck. Modern EV batteries are lasting longer than even the experts have been predicting. Granted that there are very few Lightnings in the 200K mile...
  18. Left truck plugged in while on vacation and my electric bill doubled.

    Duh, yea. Something that annoys me about the FCSP...
