  1. FordPass v5.21.0 iOS & Android

    Strangely, I never see a FordPass "update" in the list of updatable apps after going to Profile. I need to search for FordPass in the App Store app, then click on the FordPass description, then I see the "Update" button. It's the only app that behaves this way for me. 🤷‍♂️
  2. BYD export ship

    Chinese government media, but if accurate (and if they sell them), it’s a worrisome trend for other automakers. (click the words at the bottom of the preview, rather than the image)
  3. Hyundai EV9 (and other 800V EVs) charges slower on Tesla Network (It's the voltage thing again)

  4. Statement by Honda CEO

    Any slowing now is temporary. ICEs will mostly be history - only a matter of time - they are too complex and need too much maintenance and are ultimately more expensive. I would never go back to gas. The fossil fuel industry will kill us all unless we wake up. The criminals in our government...
  5. CATL "no fire" rating. Important?

    What do the engineers here think? Or is this old news? https://interestingengineering.com/energy/china-catl-first-no-fire-no-explosion-standard
  6. Ford Makes Breakthrough with LMR Battery Chemistry

    I'm betting on Sodium batteries: https://interestingengineering.com/energy/catl-sodium-ev-battery-unveiled
  7. Ford Lightning one pedal drive

    I prefer 1 Pedal in-town, then turn off on highway. Feels the best.
  8. EA Charging jumps in 2024

  9. 100% range test [follow along]

    What scanner app are you using? Thanks
  10. Coming from a Model Y, talk me in/out of a Lightning

    Defining reason to choose the Lightning: it has nothing to do with musk
  11. Found unsold '23 XLT ER: Battery implications from sitting 2years?

    Wouldn't worry about HVB. Get a new LVB from dealer and be sure the BMS replacement has been done. Also, get ALL THE OTAs! Are tires ok? Heavy truck sitting around... Check for animal nests and damage undersides.
  12. Dealer asking to provide service on My lightning

    When I brought my Lightning in for the battery module replacement, with a straight face they suggested an oil change. I said: "Nice try"
  13. Would you go for this: Remote driving of your vehicle?

    https://www.mckinsey.com/features/mckinsey-center-for-future-mobility/our-insights/remote-driving-services-the-next-disruption-in-mobility-innovation I can just imagine the scams: You get a text: "Hi, valued customer, this is your [local service center]. We need to do a [recall/x mile...
  14. Toolkit Suggestions

    Although I do keep a trusty 10 mm wrench in my truck, has anyone used a battery disconnect switch?
  15. ABRP now integrated with CarPlay on IPC

    Do y'all feel comfortable connecting the truck with Live Data thru ABRP? Likely everyone knows everything about my life already... but I do try to limit my data sharing to absolutely needed apps. :lock:
  16. Using 240V extension cord with mobile charger?

    OK, we're back to this. If just keeping the truck plugged in (without doing Departure Times) does nothing, why does @Ford Motor Company display this alert? I mean, we assume the software engineers are pulling their hair out trying to make the UX and features better, but it is confusing...
  17. FranklinWH batteries to Lightning?

    I have an https://eg4electronics.com 14 kW home backup battery/inverter system which is able to charge with either grid or my 7.8 kW solar panels (even if still grid-tied). I can feed the home battery from the ER 2023 Lightning via a generator plug in the garage. Some energy losses AC/DC but...
  18. Brand new Lariat ER Truck-rough ride, shuddering under acceleration, thoughts?

    I know someone who accidentally switched on the locking differential... and...that.
  19. No Audio at times when using Apple Car Play

    The "stop, turn off truck, open door, close door, turn on truck" troubleshooting method also works for me.
  20. What’s your exit plan for the truck?

    A million % better than any vehicle I have ever owned. I will drive it until it falls apart or I die (I'll then Will it to my daughter)
