What's your Miles/kWh average so far?

[cvalue13]

Have a question on this, venturing tin-hat but seeking clarity: can someone hand-hold me through how do (or how we could confirm) that we have complete comfort that our total mi/kWh “in dash” are reflecting (A) the “all in” data (eg not just driving but also all other metrics like climate use loses, accessories, etc.), and •not* (B) some modified version that is miss-weighting the resulting mi/kWh numbers (eg ignoring everything other than driving, or driving and also accessories but not climate usage, or some other permutations)

3,000 miles in and 2.1kw, probably 90-95% around town and a fair bit of goosing the peddle for fun (in Texas, climate-wise)

masking the question in order that I understand how much is mere faith in what the dash is feeding us, vs some ability to also critique the dash’s accuracy (or choices about what’s in/out)

BTW, I have my own answer to this but don’t want to muddy/bias the confirmations or critiques that may result from asking the question

Now that it’s winter, there’s a lot of chatter out there about how “bad” the F150L is regarding range, etc., fueled by YouTube click-bait, etc., but fundamentally a true 2.1mi/kWh (if the dash is incontrovertible) should I think be a solid retort (with all the obvious caveats).

Around town I am seeing big efficiency numbers. 2.4-3.9 (!?) m/kWh.

Is this accurate?? It seems so based on how much juice I'm putting into the vehicle but the GOM doesn't seem to ever show big range numbers. Every recent trip in warm weather is 2.4 m/kWh minimum.

*Ignore the trip timer, I'm often doing work in the truck while parked.

What was your actual MPH when moving?

I do 110 miles round trip to work each day and if I shut off the heat, which isn't always optimal when you live in New England, I can get closer to 2.3. I'm typically at 2.1 with the heat since I'm on the highway at about 70mph for about 80% of the ride. Around town I get closer to 2.5 unless I feel like goosing the accelerator a bit

I don't have a lot of miles on it yet, but after a weekend of 3-12mile errands and my usual morning commute I've racked up close to 100 miles and Trip 1 was showing 2.8.

My morning commute: light traffic, temp at 36, no wind, didn't precondition (I'm on level 1 for the moment), 27 miles mostly city between 45-50 mph, only did 65 mph on the freeway, ended up showing 3.1. I'll check % charge when I get home and avg the round trip as there is a slight elevation gain going home. Thus far, I'm very pleased.

I average anywhere from 2.3-2.6+. Highest I ever saw was 3.1 on a cool, calm night where ac wasn't required. Now that it's warmer my efficiency is dropping with AC usage. My commute this morning was 2.5. I typically don't go faster than 50 or 60mph though, as I'm in an entirely suburban area.

Cold here over the winder has mine trending downwards. Was ~2.0 in the fall, now it bounces between 1.7 and 1.8 total average to date over ~6,600 miles.

I pressed my tow button accidentally and now my Gom thinks I'm towing and cut my range in half. Is there a way to reset that.?

Just came through a winter like a large percentage of the country, the last 9,534 (of 49,534) miles has averaged 2.1.

 

[TaxmanHog]

I finished the winter season with 1.8 MPK as of 3/31/2023

I would expect a Mass winter to be a bit harsher than mine. The difference in m/kWh isn't surprising.

 

[TheBigBezo]

I think my average is 2.3/2.4 over the past 4 months of ownership. My highest so far has been 3.1 to 3.2mpk commuting. I legit charge once a weekend with the mobile cord, it's all I need. I legit love this truck, it might be the perfect fit for what I needed in a vehicle.

Purchased October 5th. Had about 10 miles on it. Currently have 14730. Trip must roll over miles at 10k.

This past winter was actually pretty mild, I never used the snow blower and only hand shoveled my driveway 3 or 4 times. I think my lower MPK is due to the warm cabin requirements of my wife and resulting happy life.

7,333 miles and 2.7 miles per kWh. Dipped to 2.5 miles per kWh for a short time this winter, but then came back up.
