  1. Optimizing Battery Use During Winter?

    I was about to write a response to the OP, and then I read this one which said everything I wanted to say.
  2. Over optimistic range every time I charge

    Showing the mileage estimate as an exact number is always going to be a tricky proposition because each mile's efficiency can be vastly different from the next. In the Chevy Bolt the remaining miles shows as a range with an upper estimate and a lower estimate (like 110-140). This makes much more...
  3. New Wheels and Tires: Black Rhino + Open Country AT 3 EV Tires

    Please let us know what you observe with efficiency!
  4. Wheel Offsets - I Need Help Understanding / Fact Checking

    I upgraded my wheels to a 20x9 with +20 offset, and tires are 285/60r20. There is a slight poke (would have preferred none), but not enough too make me dislike it. As far as fitment it seems to be fine - haven't noticed any rubbing, but it is definitely CLOSE in that front wheel well, especially...
  5. How pessimistic is the Mi/kWh display on the dash?

    In my experience, the mi/kWh is pretty bang-on accurate. What conerns me is that the GoM is ALWAYS optimistic. I do understand the inherent flaws in the GoM and I definitely don't live my life by it. I just expected that the inaccuracy should spread somewhat evenly between the high side and the...
  6. How pessimistic is the Mi/kWh display on the dash?

    I like your "Bob" and "John" analogy. As an IT professional, my guess is that both screens are using the same data point, but for the display value the center screen Bob is rounding (1.87 becomes 1.9) while in the driver display John is truncating (1.87 becomes 1.8). Still very annoying to...
  7. What is the meaning of the extra mileage counter in the GOM?

    On a related note, it seems (perhaps due to a recent Android Auto update) that "distance to destination" number shows up when using Google Maps. Used to be only for Sync Nav. Unclear as of yet if it updates range based on your route like it does with Sync, but I doubt it. Curiously, when I use...
  8. Factory 14-50 30 Amp Mobile Plug works with RV 50 Amp plug (at local RV resort)?

    I've heard tales of RV parks having trouble with EVs charging on their 50-amp outlets (and sometimes not allowing it) because the circuit is shared with other campsites and can trip the breaker if there's a sustained 30-amp load from an EVSE and the camper next to you fires up their A/C.
  9. Bad mi/kWh after charging

    I have found that if you run climate (especially heat) while in accessory mode, and then go directly to startup and drive, then "This Trip" seems to include your accessory time in the efficiency calculation and it will initially show abnormally low efficiency because it's including that energy...
  10. Front license plate relocation kit

    I am loving that light bar tint against the white paint.
  11. Breaking Wind

    Agreed, and the dog's embarrassed look in your profile pic makes me think we found the guilty party...
  12. LVB Battery Keeps Dying

    It's the inconsistency that bothers me most. Either round it everywhere or truncate it everywhere. Pick one. I am only a little bit OCD, but it bothers me a great deal when "This Trip" on the dash reads 2.1 mi/kWh and the center display reads 2.2. And now that I know they're inconsistent with...
  13. LVB Battery Keeps Dying

    I'm not seeing it anymore. That 52% is my HVB. (Yes, I'm sure.)
  14. No way to Prepare Cabin Off-Plug on 2024 models?

    I guess the workaround is to set yourself an alarm on your phone to remember to do a remote start before your departure.
  15. New sodium 12v battery from Ohmmu

    May have just answered my own question... https://www.ohmmu.com/product-page/12v-lithium-battery-for-ford-f-150-lightning And I guess since they say it's for the Lightning it must fit in the same space as the OEM battery.
  16. New sodium 12v battery from Ohmmu

    Do you have the link to the item for purchase? Did you have to do any modifications in order to install?
  17. Can you precondition on roadtrips without using Ford Navigation?

    I have tried - and when I do I get a notice that says "cancelling other navigation".
  18. Can you precondition on roadtrips without using Ford Navigation?

    As far as I know you cannot have a destination programmed into two nav systems simultaneously.
