We were coming home from some errands and drove by a local Ford dealer, 5 Star Ford Lewisville, TX.
@TexasGardeningGirl spotted these in the parking lot, so we dodged on in to check them out.
They are not yet active and still have the plastic on the screens, but there are 2 DCFC, that would...
Got the email below.
Ford said I need to Cancel and Restart my BlueOval services.
They said I own "pre-owned EVs", guess that is what I get for buying the mannequins :rolleyes:
Anyway, I called to FORD at the number list at the bottom of the email (not in pic).
Discussed it and she reassured...
I heard some rumblings on Facebook. So I went and checked my trucks.
I have a SR PRO and my wife has an SR XLT
We both have the Sync 4 system and there is a new app called CHARGE ASSIST.
It integrates chargers from several different networks, some of which you can activate from the truck and...
Ok. So I know PAAK didn't come with our PRO or XLT.
But PAAK is a BT feature. Right?
I love that is my Model 3.
Sooooooooo, does anyone have an idea of how to add it to a SR truck?
I know the BT on my truck is strong enough as it will connect to my phone that is in the house.
But does this...
Ya know, I was wondering why bother with MagicDocks if we are all getting Adapters :unsure: ....
Maybe this has been addressed and I missed it or its obvious and I am slow, but I think we are going to see more of these for the MONEY...
Has anyone found a suitable adapter for the 240 outlet in the bed to convert to 14-50 to be able to use the full 7.2kw?
I purchased one of those off Amazon with the cord but upon inspection, it isnt rated for 240 at 30Amps.
I thought FORD had one they gave out to Early owners ...
Thanks
I am running a LECTRON adapter with a 48amp Wall connector to charge the Lightning.
While a standard J1772 plug fits smoothly (We have 2 chargers in the garage), the adapter is quite snug. Works fine and all but quite snug.
Does anyone else have this issue?
So in my PRO, I cannot make the Apple Carplay to be full screen like I can in the wife's XLT.
They both appear to have the same software and my phone has the latest update.
But I cannot make it full screen and make the cards on the right side go away.
Any ideas?
So I bought a Oedro trifold vinyl bed cover from Amazon.
I was going to install it today but I found in the directions that it would require me to cut the bed cap.
So that it would grab metal instead of the plastic. Has anyone found one that you don’t need to modify the bed caps?
So wife drove the XLT today that we have had for just over a week. Made a couple of stops. Once used the outside button to open the Frunk and once used the KeyFob since the truck was locked.
When she came home, we attempted to open the Frunk with the button as it was unlocked and in the garage...
We picked up my wife’s @TexasGardeningGirl new Atlas Blue XLT SR on Friday and drove it back 828.8 miles to Texas.
We purchased the Mannequin at an unnamed dealer in Alabama.(MSRP).
We’ve been sitting on this truck for six months.
Finally picked it up on Friday and started our journey just...

I don't claim to know, but sounds like the charger is at fault here 🤷‍♂️
Here is the Twitter link
So I have been looking at this "Inflation reduction act" and the incentive for new EVSE installs.
I see some places that say the Tax Credit for Residential Installs is 30%, up to $1000 and is retroactive to the end of 2021, so its a go for this years Taxes.
But then other places it indicates...
So looking at the added features in the XLT vs the Pro in the 2022 model year,
what would be the reasoning for picking an XLT over the Pro for the price difference?
I see the addition of cloth, power seats, 360 cameras, running boards, keyless entry keypad, XM and some others, but did those...
