You're not supposed to live off DCFC.
That being said, our at-home rates also suck in New England.
Gas around me is currently $3.20, break even for my Lightning @ 2.2mi/kWh against an Ecoboost F150 with 22 MPG combined is about $0.32/kWh. Which is about the current electric rate for supply +...
In my experience it starts to limit power at 25% capacity. Anything before that is temperature dependent short of a drivetrain fault which would be obvious in its own right. I've had a 90% battery reduced to 65% power after a weekend out in sub-zero temps on a L1 charger. But after a minute or...
Guess I was pretty early. Seems only the "influencers" are getting them in March.
Also just noticed the drop shadow is oversized for the image and doesn't blend to the background.
These are the most verbose patch notes I've seen from Ford thus far. If this actually reaches my vehicle, credit where it's due. Hopefully no more vague "we made improvements to Sync" updates going forwards.
Waiting for the inevitable articles from Telsa owners moaning about us blocking spots.
Despite Tesla's blessing, I'm not sure this will be received well.
Luckily my presets were stored but it made no attempt to precondition this morning. Pretty pathetic I still have to look outside every morning and trust that it's actually following its own schedule. You genuinely can't trust it. Sucks when there's frost alone, I couldn't imagine if I actually...
My departure schedules never work the morning after an update. Doesn't seem to matter if the truck is plugged in or not. And I can refresh data from the truck but it won't let me remote start it. Is this a BMS issue or bad software? Still haven't taken care of the CSP because all the dealers...
Stopped in and they read the CSP letter and told me I'd need to drop it off for half a day to replace it despite only being a 0.3 hour labor allowance. They never even looked at the truck like they told me they "had to". They still wanted to schedule me for tomorrow despite not having the part...
Finally got around to try and schedule this after a few overnight updates failed this week. My closest dealer wants me to come in so they can "take pictures of my truck to verify my VIN" before they can even order the part, and I'll have to come back "whenever it arrives" to get it installed...
Did this update move the cruise control limit to the bottom left of the speedo underneath 0? Used to be much more prominent tucked underneath the speed digits. Good thing the release notes are so well detailed, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed. Right @Ford Motor Company?
Ah, yeah coming over from Troy/Albany isn't much better, but at least you can get a charge there before heading into the abyss. The Bennington Flo has been pretty reliable for me. But as you mention 7 is pretty desolate North from there until you hit Rutland.
Don't blame you. Don't know your route but the DCFC offerings along 91 into Southern VT are appalling. The most conveniently located Freewire DCFC in Greenfield at the RMV never works. At least Wilmington finally got its Blinks up and running. Can't wait for NACS so we can use the Brattleboro...
-AD in my Pro, module dated 2022-11-10.
Been regularly receiving updates, believe I'm currently on 6.8.0, only had update failures a handful of times but generally work on the next attempt. This CSP campaign appears in my FordPass, seems like a good excuse to try out Mobile Service.
Still have...
