  1. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List

    some tires can’t be repaired. This was on my last f150.
  2. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List

    I agree with you for the most part. I do think out of all the parts in our cars, our tires are the most vulnerable to damage. If I am by myself, sure, a waiting for a tow is no problem. But I as a father and husband, I would hate for my wife and kids to be stranded with no way for me to fix...
  3. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List

    off topic, but this is what really bugs me about the GMC offerings. No spare tire on the Silverado or Sierra EV. In my mind it can't be a good road tripper without a spare tire. I am not risking leaving my wife and 2 small kids stranded on the side of the road.
  4. Ultimate Guide to the Changes on the 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning

    Right, the adapter they are referring to in the order guide is the NACS adapter that we currently use at tesla superchargers.
  5. 2025 F-150 Lightning Order Guide & Price List

    - Fast Charging Adapter (NACS) is now included with Mobile Power Cord (66A) The way I read it is the mobile charger will come with the current NACS adapter. Meaning, the adapter we currently use to charge at tesla superchargers. Therefore I would assume it still has CCS. I also think that...
  6. Ultimate Guide to the Changes on the 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning

    Biggest take aways that I saw 1. NACS adapter included with mobile charger if ordered. So you have to order the mobile charger as an option if you want a NACS adapter at delivery with the truck. 2. Spare wheel and tire is now an option. If you don't order that option you get an inflator in...
  7. Tesla Announces Hitting 8K Weekly NACS Adaptor Production Output

    I was confused by this also. First time I read I it, it sounded like Tesla was making their own for maybe magic docks and the universal wall chargers, and the OEMS like Ford and Rivian were making their own somehow. But that doesn't make sense so who knows.
  8. J+ Booster 2 Level 1 & 2 Charger

    My bad, didn't see the date. I just wanted to state my point of view which remains. A Tesla HPWC and a Teslatap mini is far more future proof and will charge many more vehicles than the charge station Pro. I guess I would revise my recommendation to just sell the charge station pro and...
  9. J+ Booster 2 Level 1 & 2 Charger

    I just wanted to comment that I very much disagree that a Tesla HPWC should ever be replaced with a Ford Charge Station Pro. The CCS connector on it is a deal breaker. If the EV industry does what it says its going to do then CCS will be phased out long before your current charger will need...
  10. Unplugged during DC charging

    My experience has been you want the blue charging lights to turn white or off before unplugging. You can do this by hitting the unluck button as your described, or by stopping the charge from the Chargers App or touchscreen.
  11. Trip from Northern VA to OBX... looking for some charge-up recommendations.

    Highly recommend PlugShare app. East of I 95 is sparse when it comes to DC charging. I definitely recommend having a plan to level 2 or level 1 charge overnight wherever you are staying at if possible.
  12. Ford NACS to CCS1 Tesla Adapter Arrived Today. First Supercharger Experience

    Just and FYI, your free Ford NACS to CCS adapter will not work with these level 2 chargers. It only works on V3 and V4 Tesla Superchargers. You need to buy a Tesla to J1772 adapter for those units. Since you have a SR, a 48 amp adapter will be adequate.
  13. What Features Do You Want to See In Next Gen Lightning?

    Dog mode is just less menu button pushes to achieve the same result. We want to be able to tap the climate controls then tap a dog mode button and then leave the truck, so 2 taps of the screen. Currently we have to tap the options at the top of the screen, wait for it to load, then tap the...
  14. What Features Do You Want to See In Next Gen Lightning?

    I have the exact same requirement and am seriously considering upgrading to the Silverado EV or Sierra EV. 450 miles of range is a lot and the charging is great on EA 350kw units. Price is all that is holding me back. Would love to buy one next spring that gets traded back in by someone who...
  15. Ford Tesla Adapter question

    As others have stated. Your free ford charger will only work on Tesla Superchargers to DC fast charge your truck. On level 2 chargers like Destination chargers or Tesla wall connectors, you will want to find a Tesla to J1772 adapter that is rated for 80amps. I have found plenty of 80amp Tesla...
  16. It’s so refreshing not having to stop at a Walmart for a charge - BBQ and Margaritas > Walmart pit stops.

    id recommend doing a search on the forum as it has been discussed alot but the main points of it are: 1. A Tesla to CCS adapter can only DC fast charge at V3 and V4 Tesla superchargers. If your Tesla app said no chargers near by it probably means you were at a V2 which does not work with...
  17. New NC map shows proposed sites for EV charging stations

    I tried the Tesla chargers at the Sheetz on 70 in Goldsboro yesterday and could not get it to work even though fordpass and tesla app say it supports the NACS adapter. I can charge fine in Kinston at the Smithfield's Chicken and BBQ Tesla chargers. Have charged there several times this summer...
  18. Update: F-150 Lightning Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

    Order # 4661 was delivered to me 6/14/24. Was on the doorstep when I got back from our beach trip, haha. Better late than never. Has anyone done any comparisons between the A2Z and the Ford adapters. Does one perform any better than they other with speed or heat build up? I think I will...
  19. Bloomberg article: EV sales are still booming for most automakers....

    I was one of the first with a battery module replacement on my 22. My truck showed no signs of problems. Ford was proactive in calling me and arranging the repairs. I know others were not so lucky but I have put another 20k on the truck since the module replacement with no issues. Plenty of...
  20. Nothing Has Changed In 7 Years

    Fair point. charging infrastructure is equal now that I have the A2Z adapter. I would definitely advise any Ford or Rivian that is visiting Ashville to avoid the Sam's Club EA station at all costs and use the Tesla Superchargers if they can. It's been a nightmare not only to charge at but to...
