The last thing I’m concerned about when traveling is the cost of a charge. For me it is always about the location, convenience, and speed. Less than 10 percent of my travel is fast charging, so what ever the cost, it has little affect on my total cost. I’ve come to favor Tesla over EA, but also...

Exactly what rotary switch did you use? I ordered the plastic housing, but I’m still not sure what switch.

Does anyone know the exact Ford rotary switch I need to order? I see two different switches, the mounting holes appear to be different. (I did order the plastic mounting.) I’ve had the problem a couple months now and my truck is out of warranty so I’m guessing if I take it to Ford it will cost...

I don’t remember exactly how much, but way more than I thought it was worth. I do remember that I kept googling on internet and finally got a part number (color match). Then I googled the part number to get a “best” price. But most importantly, assuming the parts on truck are not broken, remove...

I have a MME er and a Lightning er. Even though I rarely need the extra range, the few times I do, I am so thankful I have it.

I had exactly the same situation. I got the part number googled it and found the complete door. When I got the part, I removed the cover from the new part and installed it on the door that was on the truck. I put the rest of the new part on a shelf in the garage!

I had exactly the same experience at an EVgo charge. I tried a Tesla charger but same problem. I drove to a dealer and the reset they system and everything has been fine. They said the EVgo charger caused the problem.

Yea, I was thinking “Appalachian” was miss spelled when I clicked post, but it just wasn’t that important to me. People in the Rockies wouldn’t even recognize them as mountains anyways!

Even in the east the affects of elevation make Ford’s nav stupid sometimes. I was on the Pennsylvania Turnpike headed east gradually climbing the Appellation mountains and suddenly the nav started telling me I didn’t have enough charge and I need to do something. But I knew once I reach the top...

65k on MME and 41k on Lightning. Yea, I am moving into the great unknown.

You guys make life so difficult. By driving electric I’m already saving a bunch. By only charging to 80 percent the big winner is Ford so they don’t have to replace a battery under warranty. I plug in and charge when it is most convenient for me and I charge to 100% every time, because I need...

Yea, it’s funny, the Lightning pulls the weight fine, even better, it’s the loss of range that kills the feasibility!

Newer is always better. So now that you found something you would consider, give the market one last look to see if there is something out there that beats it !

Well, I had my house set up for a standard generator with main panel bypass. Then i connected the 220v power plug in bed of Lightning to house and it tripped the Truck GFI (as expected). I then removed the ground wire at the house receptacle and the system works fine. Some day after I’m pushing...

This is what I did!

My 23XLT ER at 40k miles, still has plenty of tread left. I just got new tires for my 22MME ER at 65k miles at the dealer. They offered a $130 Mail in discount and my 117,000 points got $585 off. i hope i can get a similar offer when my Lightning need tires in about another 20k miles.

Congratulations, the only add’s I did to my truck were the F-150 decal (Lightning Blue) on my Antimatter Blue tailgate!

In the meantime, I’m getting the equivalent of 70 mpg in a full size pickup truck, that has almost no maintenance. I think the attitude will gradually change.

I assumed my truck had 2 chargers, one being 110vac and the other being 220vac i’m still confused, does the single charger accept 110 and 220v ? Do the duel chargers charge different parts of the hv battery or do they operate in parallel to charge the hv battery.

I have a 23XLT ER. I’m confused, what are the 1 charger/2 charger differences mentioned earlier in this string?
