That’s the thing, right? You can definitely see 50% range loss if you’re commuting 5 miles each way and warming up the cabin. Of course, range loss in that situation is totally irrelevant. Range loss is only relevant when you need to drive a long distance and in those cases you can prepare so...

Based on Ford’s track record, they’ll probably update the web tracker to “built” after you take delivery. :rolleyes:

Well, on a more positive note, i don’t get anything like 50% range loss in my Bolt in New England winters. Most of my driving is in MA/NH. EPA combined range is 3.9mi/kWh, i’ve never seen below 3 mi/kwh as long as i plan ahead a little. Pre-conditioning and using conservative HVAC settings...

Yeah, i’ll probably start trying to sell in May. I have 4 cars and i’m probably selling 3. I had been planning on selling 2 either way but i’m also getting rid of my Bolt now with the Lightning coming. I might end up with just the Boxster for a while. Which is fine, but kinda makes carting...

Ford originally communicated that there would be 6 ordering waves and then a "clean up" wave in April. They only did 5 "waves" and this is the clean-up wave, which would make it the 6th.

Is Ford going to do this in other cities? Most importantly, Boston. :)

Wave 6

This is the best build week. That’s why we’re the only build week “crew”. :LOL: EDIT: Awwww...we've been downgraded back to "group". :( BTW: Lariat ER, SQM, Max Tow, Bedliner

I don’t foresee any “reasonably” priced EV with significantly more than 300 miles of range until a new type of battery tech is released. Might be 7-10 years. Might be more. I wouldn’t be holding out for a 400 mile EV for under 70k-ish. Definitely not a truck.

Ford’s CRM system is so screwed up. These automated emails are a total cluster.

Let's all chip in to start a DCFC network!

I can't wait to see our first BUILT Lightning on the forum!

This is the Note you get when you add it to your calendar.

Exciting times!

You're giving people heart attacks here! 🤣

With sales managers you never know if it's good information or they are pulling out all the stops to make sure the vehicles come in so they can book the sale. They know bedliners have caused delays in the past, so call everyone with a bedliner on their order and tell them they are causing...

Mystery solved! 🤣

Lightning prices were released just recently so I wouldn’t expect as much of an increase as the MME, Ford should’ve factored in most of the increase that the MME is seeing. But it remains to be seen. It’s a double whammy for EVs since the tax credit will be dropping off over the next several...

If only I could get more I would!

According to this link only Hawaii has higher rates than Massachusetts. 😔 https://www.chooseenergy.com/electricity-rates-by-state/
