This may be controversial, but I wish that the scale displayed how much over capacity the load is. Right now, it just maxes out. But there is a big difference between being 50lbs over and 1200lbs over and I would like to know that difference.
Also wish they would just display the current load...
Hauling the old hot tub cover to the refuse center along with the pallet and box from the new cover and some other cardboard.
Pallet is 56"+ wide x 96" long. Sits up on one wheel hump a little in the standard F150 bed.
(Would have had to have been loaded on edge if in a Cybertruck)
I couldn't wait for the Cybertruck, so bought a Ford Lightning Pro SR about 18 months ago. Figured I would switch when the CT was available.
The Ford has been great - exceeds expectations.
And nothing about the CT is compelling enough to get me to switch.
Even with the smaller SR battery. I...
Yep, I have.
Sure, there are shared parts.
But its a disservice to call it just an F150 with an electric motor swapped-in. That implies that various EV-specific things were not re-engineered from the ground up. That there are compromises left over from it being based on an ICE vehicle. There are...
Its a frame. Its specific to this vehicle model. Because they re-used the cab and parts of the bed and the front suspension, sure the frame has to be compatible with those. But those things are only remotely related to ICE vs. BEV. There are no ICE engine mounts. There is a differing shape...
The article is wrong about the Ford.
The fact that it looks like an F150 fools a lot of people into thinking they just bolted a battery and a couple electric motors into an F150 frame. Not at all what the Lightning is
Its actually a ground-up EV design that shares very few parts with its ICE...
Not clear it requires the CCS adapters.

Easy solution - Teslas fill the spots from the left side. Those who need to charge from the right fill spots from the right. If there is an empty spot past the rightmost charger, this won't even waste any,.
I finally had to upgrade my old iPhone 7 because my employer's security policy won't support iOS < 17 anymore. Even though the iOS 15 version that runs on iPhone 7 is fully security patched and supported by Apple. So got a new iPhone running iOS 17.4
They transferred all the apps and data...
Just migrated all my apps to a new phone. Ford app says my truck is 58% charged, but has "0 mi. est distance to empty".
@Ford Motor Company, how hard can it actually be to get the estimated range value from the truck to the screen?
Ford's "Ford Pro" fleet software solution includes features to help account for home charging:
