  1. Read before you order! Expect 50% range loss in winter in Northern states.

    Yes, gas is a small part of it, but I noted "due to winter gas, cold temperatures, and engine warmup" in the post you responded to.
  2. Read before you order! Expect 50% range loss in winter in Northern states.

    Nope. "... 15% lower at 20 degrees than at 77 degrees" "... drop as much as 24% for short (3 to 4 mile) trips" "...hybrids... 30% to 34%" "...electric vehicles... 39% in mixed city and highway driving, and range can drop by 41%" https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/coldweather.shtml

    Makes no sense. They are developing the capability for the battery to be warmed prior to DC charging, which will improve charging speed.
  4. Read before you order! Expect 50% range loss in winter in Northern states.

    An unheated garage (nearly all) isn't going to make a significant difference over outside, because windchill only affects people's skin, not vehicles. With the vehicle plugged in, when the battery temp gets too low the vehicle will pull current to warm it up. Preconditioning, which is setting...
  5. Read before you order! Expect 50% range loss in winter in Northern states.

    Every ICE vehicle gets lower mpg during winter, due to winter gas, cold temperatures, and engine warmup. Many lose 20% or more. Many consumers aren't aware of that either, or even know that winter gas exists.

    This thread has me LMAO. Who didn't know that a BEV takes a huge hit in winter?
  7. Ford Mobile Charger

    You cannot use that circuit for the Ford Mobile charger, that breaker is not big enough. See page 2.
  8. Ford Mobile Charger

    For those thinking they may want to charge TWO EVs at the same time in the future, there is another option to having tons of capacity in the garage - using EVSEs that allow two on the same circuit, share the power, and balance the need. One such charger is the JuiceBox. If you have two...
  9. EV Charging Network Will Target Interstates Before Expanding Into Remote Rural and Crowded Urban Areas

    Do you know why the Electrify America charging network exists? Private business wanting to make money? Opportunists that saw the future? Nope. $2B had to be invested by Volkswagen, as part of the settlement with the government for Dieselgate. Without the $7.5B in the current government...
  10. Got a call from my F150L dealer about incoming abandoned MME - highest offer / bidder gets it ?

    He talked to a couple. A couple is not "most". I don't believe that most dealers are selling dealer orders or abandoned orders above MSRP.

  12. Can the F150L Plug and Charge

    Red E charge. Very expensive at other locations.
  13. EV Charging Network Will Target Interstates Before Expanding Into Remote Rural and Crowded Urban Areas

    If it is free, landlord gives valet RFID card to activate, or you get a free one and attach it to your fob.
  14. Can the F150L Plug and Charge

    In addition to the Apollo Career Center, there is a Chevy dealer in Toledo with a 25kw charger. Apollo only has one plug, as does the Chevy dealer. We make it 200 miles form A2 to Huber Heights on a full charge. Last time we stopped at Chevy dealer for 30 min the cause it was 19 degrees...
