Well, OK sure. I also learned to drive on a clutch and I teach martial arts for a living so you could say I'm pretty good with my feet, too. 1 pedal drive still feels more responsive to me and whenever I go back to an old car without it, I feel like we're missing something in the way we pilot...

You can argue this. I would actually go the other way and say 1 pedal is a safety feature; our feet are pretty damn far from our brains (compared to other body parts) and the time it takes to move from accelerator to brake can be the difference between stopping safely and a major accident. With...

Here. (in PA)

Are you sure the cable can do power delivery/data transfer? I believe AA's requirements using a cable is different than any old USB cable. I've only found over the years to just try ones until I get one that works (usually older but still high quality cables).

This is the way. Wireless AA was too finicky for me so I use the wired option only. Don't know if it makes a difference or not, but I also disabled any hotspot from the truck settings too as this seems to interfere with some connections. Bluetooth is required for hands-free calls (apparently...

I love the retro styling of the IONNA chargers. Wish there were more of them!

2022 Lariat in Antimatter Blue purchased 4/1/23 very lightly used 44,794 mi Main road trip vehicle still to this day, FC has only gotten better and I don't even plan for it anymore (use the GMaps EV routing tool extensively) Mostly charge at home to 90% about once a week using the FCSP Will use...

I am definitely one of those in the camps of wanting to explore adding a weight to the steering wheel to prevent these nags. Don't worry, Ford; I AM watching and I AM keeping my hands on the wheel. It would be unconscionable to not do so as a vehicle driver. In my experiments, the best way to...

Another single sample for me: I'm one of the 63%. Never had a Ford, never had a truck. Won't ever get another of the latter unless Sparky dies, but will always plan to stick with a Ford so long as they keep making awesome electric vehicles.

I remember this. Driving stick for most of my formative years, I always put the shifter in gear and used the parking break. After going to automatic, I thought the "park" was just that...a parking break, never used the manual one on a level spot because I'm stubborn. If there was ever any slope...

We use to call this down-shifting. Every car I ever did this in (whether on purpose or whoops) never seemed to like it!

Sorry, can't help you there. There is some part of the OS that passes that information on to the truck through the phone list. I know I figured it out on mine several years ago and on the few occasions my wife drives our truck (or connects her phone) the picture doesn't appear for her account...

If you're on Android, this used to be a real obscure setting to display your profile picture. With modern versions of the OS, I think this is more front and center in the phone settings but ymmv.

But does the frunk work?? I got a Lightning model toy for my son that first Christmas we owned the truck, and it's a cool diecast model (even comes with a toy "charger") but I was disappointed to find out the frunk didn't open :(

This is a really salient point. There was a recent pilot like this done in Maryland I read about with a guy that was using the Lightning so I assume their HIS as well. If we don't have reliable automatic transfers, the great potential for helping the grid goes away. Incidentally, my system has...

I have on my to-do list to check out the "ankle weight" options on the forums here to dissuade Sparky from thinking I'm not driving safely or distracted. What I've found driving long stretches w/o BlueCruise available is to keep a slight downward pressure on the right side of the wheel which...

Another here in the camp of sudden intermittent issues. Android app updated on Tuesday, sudden PaaK issues all week since then (no pattern I can discern, it just suddenly works way less than it use to which is usually in the 90th percentile). Plan to carry my fob for the foreseeable future until...

I've actually changed my tune on EVs lately. Other than family, friends, etc. that I will extol the great value of electric cars to, I don't want them to be mainstream. Takes all of our fun and advantage away from owning them! ?

This is really interesting and a possible out to get these systems reliable for us? I really hope Ford would be smart enough to repair the current systems with more reliable line communication instead of Bluetooth...

At this point I prefer an EV for more of the convenience and the drive; gas engines just can't compare anymore.
