I had been using Cridder Ridder and concentrated mint oil around/under the frunk, both battery compartments and the charging port area. The squirrel team decided none of that mattered. š£. I know friends whose ICE vehicles have had similar damage when left unattended. So Iām not going to leave...
In my case the truck was parked for 2 weeks in a semi rural area. A family of squirrels had moved in and chewed through the HVB and LVB wiring harnesses. The dealer hs hd it for 2 months because of waiting on the HVB harnesses. The good news is that insurance covered the cost minus my deductible.
Had to have mine hauled away on a flat bed truck, recently. Squirrels had chewed through the HVB wiring harnesses. Driver attached the winch cable to the front tow hooks. Then he tilted the bed and got it under the front tires, which were free wheeling, and got them off the ground. Then he...
During a 25-year military career I owned more cars than I can almost count; sports cars, high end exotics, plain-jane sedans and station wagons, trucks, etc. as I neared retirement from my second career I decided to make the leap - considered Tesla and Mach E, but then decided on a whim to look...
I use a trickle charger on my truck cuz it sits for a week or more at a time at our cabin. I use a 5 amp Battery Tender model and connect it via a quick plug I put in the frunk thatās connected to the 12 volt battery terminals.
This morning I talked with my service advisor (whose very into EVās) and she said the FHCM-24.AC.AD (frunk operation) OTA download took care of the CSP 24P24.
I have the same Bouge RV cooler and the Yeti Roadie 32. Took both on a 2 week trip to Maine. Bouge cooler plugged into an outlet and worked like a champ - we took it out of the frunk when we were at VRBOās. Yeti was strapped in the bed and kept things nice and cool as well, using ice packs that...
Without having a real clue, Iād say itās some sort of bumper plug. Depending on size it could be from one of the doors, where the bed rests on the frame, or another place under the truck.
Our area has had little/no theft over the past many years - chairs taken off of docks. And I can put the Juicebox inside If were not going to be around for extended periods.
I installed a 14-50 outlet on the outside wall of our camp. Then I attached a board to a shortened stop sign pole next to It. I mounted a Juicebox 40 amp charger (locked to the bracket) to the board and plugged it into the 14-50 outlet - which is also locked. I made a cover out of Sunbrella...
I appreciate the amount and level of analysis that many on this site conduct. Itās one reason I visit often - to check things out. If Iām traveling a longer distance I do some planning for charging - I do the same with our ICE vehicle. But overall I just take the Lightning as it is and use it...
A few days ago it was 68 degrees here - I charged to 100% and 342 miles, then did a 120 mile road trip with speeds varying between 45 and 70. The truck was moderately loaded (500 lbs). When I arrived at my destination the GOM showed 228 mi. at 72% SOC.
VA requires any vehicle (except motorcycles) in HOV/HOT lanes to pay a toll, unless it is carrying 3 or more occupants. EVās and hybrids do not get a free pass.
