They also acted like the timing was planned to get everything prepared, but apparently they didn't. The requests should not be a surprise, they knew their current base. It is also concerning as there are only about 150k Lightnings and Mach-E on the road...
So, after the site was down this morning, they are already estimating June delivery for one ordered about 30 min ago...Odd that they did not have enough already produced. This does not bode well for the others coming after this.
Interested in understanding the data for those line items called out above.
The NACS standard has a 400kWh output in the specs and new stations that will come online in the future based on the agreements for making J3400 the standard...
my last trip, Apple Maps bypassed a known good charging location and took me to a yet to be opened GM Ultium location. Really nice that I had to then scramble to find a location on my way home. Ended up driving about 30 minutes out of the way for a 5 min charge.
mine were lost after having to jump start my daughters car. Hate the fact you have to take 10 cheaply made clips off to get to the jump point. such a terrible design.
I have not seen much if any on efficiency gains. Lots of studies out there, many claim a bit on both sides. I just like the ability to close it and create a better storage. I keep my charging gear, tie downs and other stuff in a Storage Box.
I am using the Bak Revolver X4S. Love this one. It securely locks into the instal rails, it is a hard cover with a vinyl skin. It locks really well, is mostly water proof (car wash is the only place I have seen a small amount of water). I have had zero issues in the last 2 years. Easy...
How do you filter out locations that are no open yet? My Apple Maps navigated me past an open charger to a new Ultium E (by EVGo) that has not been turned on yet. One Issue I have with Ford is it does not add new stations quickly, meaning it seems to be 3-6months after opening until it shows...
I will say, this is the majority of the problems with the US in general. Everything has to be politics. It has to be I am right, you are wrong in every narrative. We have turned EVs into a political issue across the board. I am a huge fan of all of my EVs. I really like the tech, I really...
I am supposedly up to date on all of my TSB and recalls. But honestly, the dealers seem to be clueless overall. Dont think it relates to the EV, but I am in search of a new dealer to work with.
Just drove to the airport and it was a bit steadier, but when I was passing a big truck, I had to pull the steering wheel as it seemed to be targeting it. Also, no one pulled in front of me while engaged, so I did not notice a difference on that front.
My Tesla Autopilot was far superior to...
my 2022 always ping pongs and has since day 1. When a car enters the lane infront of me it is worse and more erratic. I have found Blue Cruise to effectively be worthless because of this. It also seems to aim at cars as I drive past them in another lane. The truck hugs the line and even...
This. The GOM is always an issue for the Ford. they try to make it based on driving habits, but I see it mainly going off of the last long drive vs a history of performance.
There are tools out there like Plugshare, ABRP, etc. All of which I use, and all of which are not using the most accurate, up to date SoC to make decisions. Even Apple maps EV integration seems to have a delay from the information sent. Being familiar with Tesla and Rivian, both seem to be...
Ok, so simple question that I am afraid I know the answer...
I have noticed new locations coming on line over the last 6-12 months are not showing up in the Ford navigation, I have cleared all filters that I can find. I know we all have Connected Navigation for the first 3 years implying we...
You mean the massive recall of nearly every Tesla ever built? oh...its just a software setting not requiring Tesla to pay a dealer, give loaner cars, etc...got it. :)
Rivian has been really good about monthly-ish updates that come fairly well documented. it is good to see what to expect in the...
just got the same. Drove to the airport yesterday afternoon for a flight out. Got the update last night and the survey this morning. You would think they would understand to send a survey out after the truck has been driven for a few miles.
