  1. Can the F150L Plug and Charge

    Plugshare shows a DCFC going in just West of the I-475/I-75 intersection on the South side of Toledo, but does not indicate how many connections are going in. This would help greatly in the lack of chargers on I-75 from Detroit to Dayton.
  2. Can the F150L Plug and Charge

    I would agree this section is as bad or worse. The US-23 TO US24 to I-469 to I-69 route to is just as bad. I am surprised that no DC fast chargers have popped up yet in Fort Wayne also (I-69 or I-469 side). I travel once every 2-3 months from the Detroit area to my parents that are 40 miles...
  3. Can the F150L Plug and Charge

    On your Michigan to Florida trip (I am assuming a trip straight down I-75), where did you charge between Detroit and Cincinnati/Lexington area? That seems to be the section that has the largest hole with respect to DC fast chargers. I expect to make a couple trips a year from NorthWest Detroit...
  4. Exclusive look @ F-150 Lightning next week at SEMA Garage! Post your questions & requests!

    I would agree with item #8 above as I am interested in the ability to add a snow plow that I already own.
  5. Exclusive look @ F-150 Lightning next week at SEMA Garage! Post your questions & requests!

    I think Ride of the Valkyries with the added chopper noise from Apocalypse Now would be better :)
  6. Ready For The Ford 80A Charge Station Pro

    Duke Energy did a similar thing with adding a box between your AC compressor and its external disconnect that could have the power shut down via wireless control. During times where electricity needed to be conserved, your AC unit inside would just have the fan running and circulating air while...
  7. Mike Levine Tweets 100% Charge @ 288 miles

    Considering we got around 1/2" of snow yesterday 15-20 miles North of Dearborn the same day of the tweet, it is still cold in Michigan. My Chevy Volt has shown around a 20-25% degradation in range for the last week or so at these temps, so my expectation is that it is an ER version of the truck.
  8. Stealth Camping in the Lightning!

    I agree, I would have added them to the Lariat that I ordered.
  9. I received my Lightning window sticker today!

    Thanks. My build week has been communicated to be 5/9/22, so I should be seeing a window sticker available in another 4-5 weeks.
  10. I received my Lightning window sticker today!

    What build week were you provided for the build of your Lightning?
  11. Electrify America Unveils New "Oasis" Charging Station and Charger Design. Press Release Features F150L and Pull-Through Charging Spots

    You look at their nationwide map and there are HUGE gaps in the center of the US. implementation needs to improve in areas beyond the huge metropolitan centers if the politicians have any chance of meeting their pipe dream of 100% EV usage. Many of us that live in the MidWest will have a...
  12. DC Charging Peak Speed: Extended 155kW, Standard 120kW

    Care to spell out what AUC means in the statement above?
  13. EV routing for Lightning coming?

    Built in navigation systems have very significant lag in their databases for information. Typically a data set has go through a production approval process that takes several months and is usually done with data that can be over a year old. My home that is only five years old does not show up...
  14. Got my transfer to the Lightning plant and saw first dealer mannequin trucks go down the line!

    I would expect it would fail head impact testing in a crash also. I would much rather see further implementation in a heads up display.
  15. Ford jerking my chain...

    I have a build week of 5/9 and the Sunrun link works for me. I plan to just have them ship me the Charge Station Pro as I will use a Chargepoint Flex instead that requires just a 50A services run.
  16. No more Lightning ordering waves for MY2022 !

    You might be able to determine roughly based on the VIN numbers provided by those that have a build date. The VINs are definitely sequential by assigned build weeks, which is confusing, but the largest number I have seen for the last five digits has been under 6,000 so far.
  17. 2022 Lightning Pro sold out [update: confirmed]

    I am not tied into the Cybertruck much, but it seems like it is plagued with a lot of delays in development. In 12-18 months you will have the Silverado and Sierra EVs that have improvements in charging time and range that will most likely be offset by some negatives relative to the Lightning...
  18. LIGHTNING CURIOSITY -- Why Did You Choose It?

    Don't expect the free EV charging at night to stay around very long after more and more see how nice it is to own and drive and EV.
  19. Get ready to charge your F-150 Lightning™ -- email link from Ford

    Their app is pretty useful and I do like as you do how much is spent monthly in electricity to charge your EV. What I could not find definitive information on is how it handles in the app having two charging stations. It appears that you can give each station a different name, but it will not...
  20. Get ready to charge your F-150 Lightning™ -- email link from Ford

    Per the installation guide, the hard wired input can go up to 80A, but the output of the charger maximum is 50A. If hardwired for 60A maximum, the max output is to be set at 48A that is a minimal reduction from the 50A if a greater input circuit rating was available. From what I have read in...
