Thank you Mid. The other guys on the forum straightened me out last year when I initially posted my “issue.” 😬 CAVUBob

Ditto!

Dear Triple A, Your website is irritating to view on an iPhone—the “Reviews” and chat buttons block the page. How much does the bed liner weigh that’s fitted for the 2024 Lightning? Thank you.

Yes. Thank you for the pointer! I still would like to be able to see the info on the truck instead of having to know what options we have to backward find out what version we have. 😳 CAVUBob

I’m still disappointed there’s no way to determine what BC version our 2024 Platinum has—at least that I nor Ford tech support could find. CAVUBob

The email came from “[email protected].” You’re right, it would’ve been better in the FordPass app. Bob

Sago, I received a survey request from tolunastart.com for feedback on Blue Cruise (which I’m not using due to the price). I used Grok and Trust Pilot to help find out if the site was legit. Bob

Trev, I was afraid of that. ☹️ Bob

On 04/09, I received an offer for free Blue Cruise for May. Today, I received a survey request about Blue Cruise (which I haven’t used since the three complimentary months of Blue Cruise expired at the end of October). These seem legitimate, but I haven’t seen anyone else mention it on the...

Myke, I have the same issue! Bob

Zprime29, Here’s a thought experiment for 2024 Lightning owners who “need” (I don’t) the 80A charging speed for their Lightning lifestyle. Could a second charger be added? I know most things can be done with enough money thrown at them, but could this be a reasonable modification? Someone...

capt_ramius, I found out the hard way that the 24s (including our Platinum) only have a single on-board charger which limits ANY EVSE charge to 48A. However, Grizzl-E gave me the same (wrong) info that a Ford Charge Station Pro would work (up to 80A) because Ford limited other, non-Ford, EVSEs...

EdRudy, 48A is adequate, but that’s not the issue. Ford’s sleight of hand would’ve been good to know (without having to go digging for the info) before we spend money for charging capabilities we can’t take advantage. CAVUBob

MWOLFF, I feel your pain. I just learned (from the forum guys) what you’re now learning. My thread was called “Lightning Won’t Accept More Than 46A From Grizzl-E Ultimate 80A Charger." I initially thought Grizzl-E was the problem, but the problem lies with Ford. They put out the info about the...

Firn, Lesson learned. Thank you for your comments! This cost us $300 more for the 80A over the 48A version of the Grizzl-E—I’ve made bigger mistakes. The good part that someone mentioned earlier is that we’ll have a little future proofing built into our charging setup. Hopefully this thread...

MrLoganRoss, Yes, I agree that the 48A is adequate. Actually, the mobile 30A has been adequate for the six weeks we’ve owned the Lightning. My plan was to run the 80A Grizzl-E at a reduced rate (48A) due to conversations pointing to better battery health with a lower charge rate. But…I was...

BeeKind, I looked on Ford’s multiple sites this morning to see if I could dig up what I know now about the chargers (EVSEs) and their verbiage still easily leads to the idea the 80A is still possible. They list miles per hour gained during charging which hides what the amperage is, although you...

JRT, looking on the bright side—nice! CAVUBob

JRT, Yup, I know that and still said it that way—sorry. CAVUBob
