New (to me) truck taking my old car to its new owner. Photo is from the top of Lizard Head Pass (~10,300'). Saw another Lightning towing too. ~1.0 mi/kWh climbing up here from 7000ft, but was showing nearly double that by the time I got back down to my starting elevation in the other side...

So far the product / kit is only CAN intercept hardware and optionally physically touching the AC lines into the vehicle's onboard charger (to add the rear inlet shown)? Ford might still have a beef with just these parts even. Not sure how they'd prove modification induced failure, especially if...

Dedicated winter tires are a problem up here, where I can be driving in 10F up here at elevation in the morning and 80F down in the city in the same afternoon. True winter tires wear super fast at those temps, on gravel, etc. CC2s were a very good balance between winter traction (shockingly good...

Clearly an AI image processor does to reality what a food processor does to food.

I asked Gemini about adding a V8 to the Lightning. That snot spit out this image...

Just got an email from Enphase... "It is slated for a late 2026 release"...

Nevermind, Enphase website for this product says "Available in 2026 " at the top...

I got the same model as this, but for about third the price, on Temu. https://a.co/d/evIlJzo For a single person, inflate the wider section for you horizontal, and use the narrower section as the support into the foot well. Don't need to inflate the narrow section to full inflation, or you'll...

Some of each. I70 East of Grand Junction is 4 lane divided, but BC 1.0 really struggled with a few of those tight curves. I also drive a 2 lane not divided in CP360 mode pretty often that was pretty dicey on 1.0 ...

Just got this update on my '22 Lariat. Really hoping it speeds up the control loop cycle time that makes for late corrections, especially on high wheel angle corners. This makes me have to put in some torque to help BC / CP360 getting into and out of corners on the twisty roads along the river...

Round trip efficiency might not be quite as bad as I had seen claimed elsewhere....

I use this for real time tactical information while enroute, but not so much for planning really. I find it to be pleasantly pessimistic in it's guesses on SOC at arrival. I'm usually about 3% better SOC per 100 miles traveled vs Google Map's initial guestimate. ABRP's guesstimates are often...

Na-ion is honestly better suited to fixed storage. Not that it can't go in vehicles, but it has got some ugly drawbacks in vehicular applications. The key one that makes it a poor choice for vehicles is bad round trip efficiency, especially at anything higher than trickle charging C rates...

ABRP for a quick and dirty, usually quite pessimistic, and definitely needs sanity checking initial plan. Plugshare to make sure the stations ABRP picked are really the best. About 50% of the time, I can come up with a better combo of stations that saves on total charging time, stations that...

Not sure what's up, my app does not show chargers over there either. Just stuck on "searching" with the back and forth chasing status bar. Alternate sources of charge location info that I would consult, in rough priority / accuracy order: - Plugshare.com / app - Supercharge.info...

I am currently, horribly stuck on the name "Woogie". Because, it's electric, boogie woogie woogie... I promise I'll break through the writers block and think of something better for the future, but that's where I am mired for now lol

These guys are advertising pure DC (solar) to DC (vehicle). But considering this is now the third iteration of their product design / model number in as many years, I'm really not holding my breath for actual product release. https://www.enteligent.com/#product Little known fact: some vehicle...

I was taking the onscreen message at its word, that PPO being on might reduce charging speeds. I do not have any proof that it does so... has anyone measured it with and without PPO being on and seen any actual difference in charge speeds?

I am not asking about keeping PPO on once it has been intentionally activated. I am asking about why it turns itself on, uncommanded, after being specifically turned off on purpose.
