  1. IF you could do it all over... what would you buy?

    Should have gotten Pro Power. Should have gotten an X plan discount through the Mustang Club. Would have saved about 10k based on the invoices people posted online. Otherwise, I stick by my purchase as one of the most rock solid I’ve made in a while.
  2. My Goal: to never pay for charging (Solar) -- my automation process

    Was it easy finding an electrician to connect to your electrical panels? Besides a transfer switch, what else would I need?
  3. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I’m sure that these “losses” will be used as loss carry forwards to allow Ford to avoid future taxation.
  4. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I test drove a regular Etron and wasn’t sold on it… maybe the GT is much better but at that price, a Taycan is worth considering. Surely the folks at Porsche can figure out that there is a market for an electric Cayman/Boxster.
  5. I’m Concerned My Lightning Has Left Me Jaded.

    I am very happy as well but would really like an EV convertible next. If not I might settle for a Taycan.
  6. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I don’t trust the range meter. I just calculate based on percentage used and assumption of 131kwh capacity of the pack.
  7. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I think the crew here wants quantification if at all able. We’re all guessing with intuition really. This is the key question. How much range loss does the heat pump prevent at 50F, 30F, and 0F? If we had to guess, it’s probably 15%, 5%, and 0% but I just say that based on my experience with...
  8. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Update. 70dB standing at drivers side mirror during preconditioning. 50 dB at the top of the 15” center display with door closed.
  9. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Anyone have a 2023 in MN and about thirty minutes to kill?
  10. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I’ll do a decibel reading inside and outside next time.
  11. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    It is very loud when outside the vehicle. Can’t hear anything major once inside- just seems like a faint white noise. No vibrations.
  12. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    I will say that the heat pump appears quite effective. Not until it was below 30F did I see efficiency go below 2.0 mi/kwh
  13. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    Extended. I purchased extended knowing cold was going to have this effect
  14. Real world heating data for 2024 in the cold

    For all those potential shoppers out there wondering if this truck is for them, I’d like to add my 0.02. I own a 24 Lariat and live in the frigid state of MN but in the metro area which is lots of sprawl. I run heated seats and heated steering wheel always with cabin temp at 72F. At most my...
  15. Why can't Ford get it right?

    This is a case of bad expectations for a product. I live in MN as well. 320 is based on epa methods and not specific to our climate. Based on multiple YouTube videos of various EVs, I was expecting a range hit of 33-50% of max assuming the same mix of highway/city. Unfortunately, I think you...
  16. It's All About the Delta (and Temperature, but the BMS will Protect You) -- Test: Effect of temperature on battery cells life

    Agreed. Should be laid out with the usual intro, methods, results, discussion. I appreciate the effort, but it’s impossible to read (and I didn’t skip to the graphs).
  17. I love this truck but GD!

    I live in MN. I’m seeing efficiency at about 1.5 mi/kwh as well for a range of about 205 miles. We’re at 8F, so certainly warmer ?. The key difference of course is that at most I’ll hit 150 miles of driving roundtrip. No hospital where I am is 50 miles away.
  18. Ford Launches New Electric Road Trip Hub Site

    Are iOS users gonna get the same benefit with Apple Maps at some point?
  19. Have you noticed... (lesser known features of our trucks)

    I found this. Evidently a fan does exist. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/wireless-charger-changed-for-2023.15481/post-318389
