  1. Honest answer please: When will Tesla Superchargers be added to Connected Navigation

    This unfortunately is the only approach. Speaking from someone who has not had an OTA update since August 2024. My truck had a failed update, nothing since. Been to the dealer multiple times where they have updated modules, but my CarPlay audio is still hit and miss along with a few other...
  2. Confession: Got a little jealous of a Chevy EV...

    I think it is a bit more than that with the truck. while not as polarizing as the Cyber Truck, the Silverado EV requires some to get past the aesthetics of the Chevy Avalanche. I also think the market for a $100k truck has gone with inflation across the board. The other is the logistics of...
  3. Confession: Got a little jealous of a Chevy EV...

    Having driven both, I decided to keep my Lightning when the Silverado EV I ordered came in. The Silverado feels like it lumbers around, you can feel the heft of the 200kWh battery. I was disappointed in the quality of the Silverado as well. I posted here when I did the drive, but the interior...
  4. Manual Nav Update - Tesla Superchargers

    @Ford Motor Company This is likely why my next vehicle will not be a Ford vehicle. Why do we make software updates, map updates and other functions of the vehicle so complicated? I am sitting in my truck that has not received an OTA update since August. Coming up on my 3 years of ownership...
  5. TSB 25-2048: Sync 4/4A General System Performance, Stability, and Intermittent System Reboot, etc.

    I am working directly with the service guy. We are going to attempt to recreate it with a service tech, but it is so hit and miss, more hit now than miss. Yesterday 3 of 4 drives had the issue. I have a quick reconnect pattern now that it is more of an inconvenience than anything. I disable...
  6. TSB 25-2048: Sync 4/4A General System Performance, Stability, and Intermittent System Reboot, etc.

    I took my truck in specifically for this TSB. The service advisor told me they would look to update all modules available and would look into this TSB. But, sadly after they had it over a week, I am now far worse than I was before. Prior, I had this issue about the same number of times, 1...
  7. Tesla implementing surge pricing?

    This. They are working baed on actual usage, not based on times as they have in the past.
  8. Walk away Lock

    ok, so frustratingly, I have a similar complaint. WAL for Ford is awful. I can leave the truck in a parking lot, walk away, it will not lock 50% of the time. I come back to the truck, only to see it is unlocked. (dont get me started on why the app does not show status). however, in my...
  9. Use 360 cameras for security.

    This. It is very clear. The videos sent to the mobile device are highly compressed, but from the USB/dash screen they are clear and easy to make out details. As for Battery drain, as shown in the statement from Rivian, Tesla and Rivian drivers know the implications to battery. You can...
  10. ECG-25.2.5.7.1 - Consistent Battery (LVB) Performance

    I have been enrolled in EAP since 2022. I rarely if anytime get updates early, and lately, do not get updates at all.
  11. Startup/shutdown sound on Platinum

    I have had this same issue with my truck since I bought it in 2022. No fix for me as of yet, but I have not taken it in yet for the CarPlay no sound issue. Maybe that fixes it. @TaxmanHog - I have not received an OTA since August of last year. Trips to the dealer updated the modules to the...
  12. Last day! It was fun expensive and …

    Did the same thing with a 2016 Yukon Denali. Pandemic shortages earned me $40k in 2022. Bought a Tesla Model 3 while I waited on the delivery of my Lightning. Traded it in on the Lightning for what I had in it. Cost me insurance and electricity to drive for 4 months. Gone are those days...
  13. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    Funny enough, this was one of the (many) reasons I did not go with the Silverado EV...My wife said it was a requirement moving forward.
  14. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    Ford changed the onboard charger for 2024 to 48A max for both Standard and Extended range. This shows up in the at home charging speeds. A shame really as you are trying to fill a battery that is almost 2x the size of the model Y at the same speed. EDIT to add link...
  15. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    not sure how you Lariat worked, but my 22 Platinum rips, maybe I need to try a Lariat. I believe overall, the Platinum is slightly slower than the Lariat due to the added weight. Wonder if they are tuning the 24's differently with the energy pedal. Congrats on the truck. Agree with...
  16. 2024 Flash - Tailgate Lightbar DIY Build (How-to Instructions)

    This is a similar pet peeve of mine. I tell the dealer before I sign that they must remove all references showing their dealer (Stickers, license plate, etc) or credit me back $1000 for an advertising fee. I did this after the decal damaged one of my vehicles many years ago as I tried to...
  17. Set up help needed

    This to me still seems silly 1 year after launch of the Tesla access. Tesla and Rivian nail this perfectly. Also, anyone else have an issue with CarScanner showing an inaccurate SOC? Mine is off by as much as 5-7%.
  18. Set up help needed

    I have the same VeePeak and it stopped working with ABRP for some reason. I went to the OBDLink CX and Paid for ABRP as the only real way to trip plan in the Lightning. Cannot with built in Navigation as it still cannot navigate to a Tesla charger, Apple Maps does not allow any customization...
  19. How responsive is the Ford Pass app on Lightnings?

    I would 1000% agree. I love my Lightning and do my fair share of bashing, but Tesla software and updates are light years ahead of ford. Being a tech person myself, I find it infuriating with Ford. Over 2.5 years into ownership, and I still cannot tell you the version of software or...
