  1. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    As Rick already answered, you can't get member pricing from any of the companies that have memberships by way of the FordPass app. For many of them (including Tesla and EA) you can charge via the FordPass app or simply plug in and charge (no app needed), but you pay non-member prices. Having a...
  2. Ford Pass v5.22.0 iOS & Android

    That's funny. Updated my #$%^& iPhone (not available on android yet). I get a different screen than either posted above. 2024 Flash. Yes, I logged out and back in. Also noting that next departure is shown as 0530 Monday - 6 hours ago
  3. How to lower the headliner on a 24 Lightning?

    Unfortunately no. For starters, he shows a clip to press on the coat hanger - does not exist on my Lightning. The list goes on.
  4. How to lower the headliner on a 24 Lightning?

    The complement I am planning on is: Cab antenna 1 - VHF Q-wave for a VHF XTL-5000 Cab antenna 2 - VHF Q-wave for 2M & 440 with diplexor for Kenwood tri-bander Cab antenna 3 - 220 Q-wave for Kenwood tri-bander Cab antenna 4 - VHF Q-wave for scanner Cab antenna 5 - UHF Q-wave for Low UHF XTL-5000...
  5. How to lower the headliner on a 24 Lightning?

    I am aiming for four or five antennas on the cab roof and three on the shell (may not use all three however). So something like that is not enough. Really need greater spacing than that offers as well.
  6. How to lower the headliner on a 24 Lightning?

    I have that. It is primarily talking about stuff below the body. Very little about the roof. I still need to get the headliner down a bit and open the C pillars in order to route the antenna cables.
  7. OEM built-in center console lock... Who Knew? (I certainly didn't know)

    Well thanks! I had not noticed that. Not exactly high security, but on par with a standard glove compartment lock. I'm just the opposite. I always carry the fob, but it just stays in my pocket. Just grab the door handle to unlock and open the door. If I needed to use the door keypad, I...
  8. How to lower the headliner on a 24 Lightning?

    Let's see if someone knows how. I am trying to install several 2-way radio antennas on my 2024 Lightning Flash. In order to do that, I need to at least partially lower the headliner enough that I can see where there is anyplace I can't drill holes, and be able to route the antenna cables down...
  9. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    As I said, NOT an equivalent vehicle. Of course a mid size SUV is going to get FAR better gas milage than a full size pickup. Apples to Oranges comparison.
  10. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    I could only dream about gas prices that low. This is southern California and CostCo is around $4.00 and high priced stations are well over $5.00 per gallon (for the cheapest octane gas). My Dodge was averaging 10.8 mpg. By comparison in the just under four months that I have had the...
  11. Pro power and AC on at start

    Auto only goes down to 1. However, you can manually turn the fan down to 0 with the fan button (that also takes it out of Auto).
  12. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    You must have gotten really good gas milage to make that statement (or not using an reasonably equivalent pickup). At the time I traded in my 4x4 Dodge Ram 2500, I was spending about 38 cents per mile for gas. To have the SuperCharger cost that much per mile would be 90 - 95 cents per KWH...
  13. Pro power and AC on at start

    I was asking about the Auto switch - not the A/C switch
  14. Ford NACS Adapter Poor Temperature Control

    Not that I'm aware of, but I have and use my A2Z Typhoon Pro when I visit a Tesla SC.
  15. Pro power and AC on at start

    Do you have climate set to Auto?
  16. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    Yea, I know. I have run into that exact scenario on L2 chargers that I have reported as having a problem.
  17. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    And I gotta say that pulling into a charging location with 120 stalls is seriously impressive! And a few of the stalls are specifically set up for and signed for vehicles towing trailers. As I type this, according to the Tesla app, all 120 are operational with 111 available. Cost is $0.45 /...
  18. Reflections on the State of DCFC Charging in the US

    Much smaller sample size as I'm only used DCFC 10 times since I bought my truck a few months ago. Nine of those were Tesla (six with a Tesla subscription) and one at EA (with a subscription). I have never had a failure at Tesla, but have noted that the Tesla app indicated one of more stalls...

    Hi Micheal. Welcome to the forum. Do you have a Lightning, or are you like me and joined before purchase so you can learn first?
  20. Leave plugged in?

    That's not quite true. For "charging" that is very likely the case, but if you have a departure time set and the truck is still plugged in, the power for preconditioning will come from the EVSE. I have confirmed that by looking at power consumption on the utility meter.
