Should I uninstall the Forscan updates first ?

I made a few of the minor changes that everyone seems to like and all seemed to be working well. I have had a few OTA updates since. Recently, my Lightning will only charge to 77%, then charge speed drops to almost nothing with little to nothing being added. After a while of no progress...

My camera came back smaller after a software update. Dealer has been working on Mach E and 2 Lightnings of mine. Was told that Ford could not fix. Took to another dealership and was told the same thing. FORscan took care of the issue

I have been on EAP since 2021 when I had my Mach E. I seem to still be enrolled since I get questionnaire asking what I thought about update. Most of the time, I did not receive the update in question. That being said, I did get this one on 3/20. No warning or notification. I was charging...

Most apps will charge your card, or create a balance for you to draw from. Tesla seems to like $20. I went to check out the Rove complex in Santa Ana for a few minutes. THEY took $60. Chargepoint may be $20 as well.

Leaving my house this morning in Vegas.

I have an early 50 amp Tesla tap and another brand. The Tesla tap works on most destination chargers that aren't internally locked. The other one is hit or miss. Doesn't work on a lot of ones that the Tesla tap does. I have used the Ford DCFC adapter with my Lightning and several...

I have been riding and driving electric for about 15 years. No charging infrastructure when I started. PlugShare and ABRP are great starts. I probably have over a dozen apps. I have never " Accidentally " run out of charge. I make it a challenge on road trips to find " unchartered "...

My 22 Lariat with almost 17K miles seldom gets charged to full but I am going on a road trip tomorrow. It will probably drop below 300 miles of range on the highway.

Ford is coming to my house next week to do mine so I am guessing it won't be too long.

I had an issue a while back where my Lightning wouldn't charge at a Level 2 that I had previously used. Just for grins, I put a Tesla adapter on the Level 2, then my Tesla tap, then plugged into the truck. THIS worked. I contacted FordPass they had no idea. My dealership had no idea. The next...

I received mine yesterday. 90024445. Ordered 2/29. A friend also in Vegas a few hundred numbers behind me got his on Tuesday

I ordered mine day one. 90024,xxx. Got email this morning from Ford that it would arrive this afternoon. Checked tracking a bit ago and it says that is left Memphis at 3 pm . Not holding my breath for delivery today in Vegas

Since the " Black Platinum " and associated updates have never materialized, the Lightning is running when Pro Power is used. I am out of the house most of the day so generally off then. I turn it on when I get home. If I plan on using power after I go to bed ( mini Split or fan ) I leave...

I don't use a lot of power and use my Lightning daily/nightly to power my house. One of the items is a heated blanket. Never had an issue. The only thing that had any issues was my factory EVSE for my Bolt. GM EVSEs are temperamental and I have always had issues with them. I run the Bolt...

This is my 5th Electric Ford and 2nd Lightning. 2014 Focus Electric, 2016 Focus Electric, 2021 Mach E Premium SR, 2023 XLT SR and now my present 2022 Lariat ER. I have been riding and driving Electric for about 15 years owning over a dozen cars/trucks and 5 electric motorcycles. Whenever...

Hypermiling is when you do everything in your power to get the best range/mpg. No climate control, easy acceleration and braking. No speeding etc.

The first thing I do on any of my vehicles is put tire pressure to whatever the max psi marked on the tire. This is something that is easily done in Vegas as there is no snow and minimal rain. If a light vehicle, max might not be appropriate as it can cause the center to wear faster. Don't...

I have been riding/driving electric vehicles for about 15 years. I hypermile everywhere. Around town I can routinely get over 400 miles. On road trips, it drops back closer to what Ford says. I usually keep it between 40% and 60%. Only charging past that when I will be doing a lot of driving. I...
