We Charged our Lightning at a FPL Mobile charger right after Hurricane Milton. We evacuated to our inland Rural cabin and FPL set up the mobile charging trailer in Okeechobee. We charged on the way home. All gas stations were out of gas. It was strange that having an EV eliminated the 1/2...
To add another point. Removing the speaker will not eliminate the message that someone gets that an AirTag is following them. Hide the AirTag very well so when some thief is notified that they are being followed by an AirTag they can't find the AirTag.

Short story about “the club”
I was a field service manager in South Florida with a company that had 200 standard Caravan service vehicles which techs took home. We had at least one van stolen every month For almost a year.
One Monday morning we had 3 reported as stolen over the weekend...
I’m on my 2nd Lightning. My first was a 2023 Lariat ER. That GOM exaggerated the range. My current one is a 2024 Platinum. The range on the GOM of the 2024 Platinum is much more accurate.
I routinely drive a 125-mile trip between my house and cabin. When charged after the trip, at either end...
With these numbers your GOM estimates your full battery range at over 400 miles. Hard to believe.
22% added 89 miles
19% added 78 miles
(100/22 )*89=404 miles
(100/19)*78=410 miles
Actually it's a custom cable with 3 wire 10 AWG SOOW cable with a L14-30P on one end and a L14-30R on the other end. The 3 wires only connect the two hots and the Neutral. I keep it stored in the Lightning's truck bed, locked in the truck bed Swing Case.
It's a cable I put together together...
If that rotary switch is used to disconnect the ground connection from the inlet box to the breaker panel it’s an obvious code violation. An inspector that would inspect some other electrical installation would red tag your house.
I would keep the interlock bypass and generator inlet box...

Ask the dealer for the form 15400 that they are required to give you. If they can't produce it then is is likely that they didn't register the deal on the IRS Portal.
I'm back home on a desktop now. I see what you mean that there is not a dropdown for 2025 on your page.
Here is what I see on mine. The Tesla Dealer input the sale on the portal and it populates on mine.
What a mess. My friend bought a Cadillac Lyriq Ev last year. The dealer told him the same thing that they filed the paperwork. I asked him to insist they provide the IRS Form 15400 verifying the car was registered with IRS. Well they didn’t register it with the IRS. So they registered it 2...
The 5 foot 14-50 to gen inlet is not a problem. it is a standard 1450 to SS2-50R Generator Rv cord. You can but them in varying lengths from 15'-50' at any RV store or even Amazon. .
Thanks for the reply,
We live in Hot Florida. The majority of my driving with the Lightning is traveling between house and cabin at 60-65 MPH. I averaged 2.2 mi/kWh with my 2023 Larirat ER and I now average 2.0 with my 2024 Platinum.
I also live in Florida,. Lived in Ft Laud for 28 years and now live in the Sarasota area. .
I would absolutely trade a 24 Larati ER without the ProPower 9.6kw for a 23 Platinum. Just be aware the the Platinum efficiency is about 10% less than the Lariat. I went from a loaded 2023 Lariat ER...
