  1. The Home Integration System Departs With A Whimper

    Too bad they can't link the front and rear inverter to allow the full 9.6kw output for home backup
  2. Thinking about changing the color of my factory wheels.

    Ever so slightly more muted than Bronze Gold would be my view.
  3. Amp Powerstep - RealTruck ordering rant

    Yeah, if you blame it on Fedex then you send out another package.
  4. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    If you can enable Bluecruise without having to pay for the subscription then I somewhat conceded the point, although I point out that such things are nowhere near accessible to 99% of forscan users. Oh, I know that via software you CAN do a variety of things, but the premis is that the...
  5. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    Yes, converting. CONVERTING. And it isn't folks who could have purchased the higher trim in the first place, and RARELY is it a FULL conversion, its putting features from the higher trim, not a full conversion. Putting acc on a pro isn't the same as buying an XLT, I know, I have a pro and have...
  6. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    The point is nobody will buy a lower trim instead of a higher trim simply for the features that could be enabled via software. Ford didn't lose a sale of a Platinum because one can enable beosonic on a Lariat. OK, I won't say nobody, there is what, 1%...
  7. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    Again, a feature FROM a higher trims is NOT the same as HAVING a higher trim. Nobody who turns on one, two, or five software features would have ever paid for the higher trim simply for those features alone
  8. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    Is the topic not relevant because it was from 6 months ago? So the ONLY difference between them is the feature turned on via Forscan? Again, yes, I know you can turn on features from higher trims, that still doesn't MAKE it a higher trim, I was clear about that. Happy to hear which two trims...
  9. Telematics locked - does this mean my ‘24 Flash is enrolled as a fleet vehicle?

    Name one feature that can be turned on by Forscan that is by itself a paid feature. Just one. Yes, well aware of features from higher trims can be enabled, but that one forscan change doesn't turn a truck into a different trim. So name one forscan change that would be something Ford would...
  10. Tire Sizing for a Lariat

    The Lightning appears to have similar clearance as the regular trucks so up to almost 35 should be OK, provided the are no too wide. 295/70r18 are reported to touch slightly slightly but can be remedied easily
  11. Front bumper motorized shutters function?

    Such as reduced cooling, not that i have seen.
  12. Lightning Front Headlight Swap

    The shape of the opening in the fender is completely different on 21+ F150s than it is on the Lightning. The Lightning is much closer to pre-21 F150s, but not exactly the same either.
  13. Front bumper motorized shutters function?

    Do you think Ford is going to spend one dollar when instead a dollar can be saved? Plenty of reports on here of piles of leaves and road debris getting built up at the top rear of the slanted radiator.
  14. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    My guess is with the cooling being on the bottom only the cells themselves limit how fast they can be cooled. I have done some tests using water cooling to boost the efficiency of the AC system and didn't see any improvement other than AC compressor current dropping. I don't know if there...
  15. Battery SOH - bragging rights or bullshit?

    Well true, but all batteries are thermally driven unless charged well under their max. Still, yours shows the normal lightning curve, higher power at the beginning, possibly until a certain thermal rise, more or less steady state, then the drop at 80%.
  16. How often to charge to 100%?

    2nd You can drive 100 mile every day at 55mph, charging on L2 twice a day to 60%, in a cool climate, and put 40,000 miles a year on. Or you could do 30 miles per day at 80mph, hitting a dcfc when you get down to 10%, in a hot climate, and with an even hotter battery, charging to 95%. Those...
  17. Miles per KwH - DC Fast Charging vs Charging at Home?

    The GOM is the miles to empty, not the efficiency. I don't think many have reported seeing inaccuracy in the mi/kwh although yours is a pretty extreme difference. We really don't know well at all how the gom and the efficiency works. We know there must be some historical weighting to it, likely...
  18. How often to charge to 100%?

    They are not that fragile, they will last a very long time even when charging to 90%+. The question is not if they will "last", there is not on or off with this, the question is if you will have 90% battery life in ten years, or 80; if you will have 80% battery life in 20 years, or 60%...
  19. Android auto without wireless?

    Go to setting and search for Android Auto. Find "Version" and tap it many times. This will enable developer mode. Go to the 3 dots in the top and select developer mode. Turn off Wireless (first option) This way you are not disabling app projection for everyone.
