  1. Max Energy at 100% SOC Display

    I just noticed the other day as well. I was ranging from 124-127 at 100%. I also noticed the drop in display SOC is more linear. Before the energy needed the drop to 118 kwh before it would drop down to 99%. Now it’s starts right away. 80% is now around 102 kWh, it was 96 kWh before, so for...
  2. Winter Range Extender - would you do this?

    Added time and that fast chargers would cost more than the fuel it would take. road tripping is already harder with EV’s, so adding an extra 75-100km between charges would be great. I agree with the home charging and that what I did this year, but also limited the longer trips due to the range...
  3. Winter Range Extender - would you do this?

    Try -25-30f and my heater was using 7-8kw. Like I said 35% went to cabin. My use case probably doesn’t apply to lots of people, but it can make the case for me.
  4. Winter Range Extender - would you do this?

    I’ve been thinking about this as well, living in Canada, my efficiency was terrible in this winter with 35% of trips going towards cabin climate. So I think this would help a lot. Also reached out to the guy that did this, he says it’s working great with no problems. He got a 2 year/2,000 hour...
  5. Full charge but below 131 KW of usable power

    This is what I've typically been getting with my truck 23ER with Car Scanner. 122-127KwH at 100% SOC Display. Not sure how accurate it is though.
  6. Quick Drop in SOC?

    Didn’t know CarScanner was on CarPlay now. Had to check it out. Would you look at that. I used an Android carlink box to get displayed on the big screen before this. This will make things easier to see. Especially when you are charging.
  7. Quick Drop in SOC?

    I did charge with the 120v. Is that causing an issue? I don’t usually worry, when the SOC is a bit off, but it dropped so fast that I thought I wouldn’t make the rest of the trip home. 8% over 2.5km at slow speeds would’ve been over 80% over 25km at highway speeds if it continued. So I got...
  8. Quick Drop in SOC?

    24 Celsius. 30 minutes before I came back out. No big hills, pretty much flat. I’ve never experienced anything like this. To drop 8% in 1.5 miles. I don’t think I could do that if I floored it the entire way.
  9. Quick Drop in SOC?

    I charge up to 100% about once a month for long trips. The rest of the times it I charge to around 80-90%. 99.5% comes from car scanner. Adding for translation lol. 100km/hr ~ 60mph. 60km/hr ~ 35 mph. 25km ~ 15 mi. 2.5km ~ 1.5 mi.
  10. Quick Drop in SOC?

    Had a weird quick drop in my state of charge today. Charged to 99.5% (123.21kwh), went to the hardware store. 25km highway at 100km/hr followed by 2.5km at 60km/hr on the way there. There was a tailwind so I used 5%. Now here's the weird part. Left the store about 30 minutes later, Started...
  11. Truck died 5 miles from home

    @MM in SouthTX just curious if there was ever a resolution to this from Ford?
  12. Truck died 5 miles from home

    It only happened once. Ever since the highest I've seen is 97% SOC and 127kWh. Took it to the dealer to run diagnostics and everything checked out. Ford needs to fix its BMS information on both ends of the spectrum.
  13. Truck died 5 miles from home

    The battery pack is 144.3kWh. It's 131kWh usable. the SOC on my ODB reader is not based on the physical limits. If it 127kWh (100% display SOC) would read 89% on the ODB reader, but it reads 97%. Here's another example, when my truck glitched and wouldn't get to 100% display which allow me to...
  14. Truck died 5 miles from home

    I just wanted to add. Ford display percentages don’t align with the actual soc and energy in the battery. Should it? Yes, but it doesn’t. an example of this. 99% displayed charge shows 118kWh of energy, while 100% is 125-127kWh. 90% for me is around 108kWh according to car scanner. wish it was...
  15. Efficiency Help

    Just took a drive. 10km one way, 10km back. Flat surface. 5-10km cross wind No interior heating No battery heating (according to Car Scanner) Battery temp was around 14-16 degrees Celcius 10 degrees Celcius Tire Pressure 39psi at the end of the drive. Reset Trip when I reached 110 kph...
  16. Efficiency Help

    Thanks for the comments. I haven't had a chance to test anything out yet but will be able to take a decent drive this weekend and will record some info. I would be happy with 1.9-2.0 miles/kWh, but I'm not even getting that with a tailwind. If what I have is all I can do, I'll adapt as needed.
  17. Efficiency Help

    I'll do that this weekend when I have another 45-minute highway drive and post it.
  18. Efficiency Help

    A mix of concrete and asphalt roads here, so maybe (?) it is rougher roads. Did the neutral hill test, the truck didn't hold on a slight decline and proceeded to move. So I don't think it's the brakes grabbing. I just did a loop with car scanner on a flat area. The test was to wait for energy...
  19. Efficiency Help

    Efficiency around town seems fine. I drive about 12 mi to work each day (max 38mph with flat terrain) and I get 3.3 mi/kwh. I've been trying to be as efficient as possible, so light acceleration and 100% brake coach are constantly on my mind. Haven't tried the hill and neutral, I'll try to find...
  20. Efficiency Help

    OEM rims. Everything is stock from the factory except for the tonneau cover. I’ve tried the psi on the door (36psi cold). Seems to make things a touch worse, so I’ve kept them higher to gain the little efficiency I can.
