No real impacts to me. For most of my longer trips, stops are more dictated by biological concerns than need to charge, and the battery still out ranges my bladder comfort. However, both our Mach-e and Lightning are ER. If we had standard range, the answer would likely be different. Cost is a...

Our clip is a little finicky but has held up well and we have no issues with it. It works better than the Ford charge station pro. Maybe you got a bum one.

How fast do you normally drive!!!! 400 miles in 3 hours is an average of ~133mph! 400 miles in 7 hours is still an average of almost 60mph. Not really bad at all!

I really wish the cross climate 2 was offered in a higher load rating. The stock tires on our Mach-e have been great, but the Generals on my Lightning are very marginal in winter weather. No real good options out there for replacements that don't absolutely destroy range (mostly LT rated all...

It isn't really free energy like you are thinking, the extra heat would effectively be initiating an "exothermic" (not sure of that is the right word here) electrochemical reaction that outputs more than the initiation energy. This couldn't go on forever because you only have a certain amount...

This can be improved via application / cycling of max acceleration and max regen. Might make other drivers (and police) hate you though. 🤣

Ok - while I get the discrepancy, this is a little bit apples to oranges. Those Tesla numbers look like they are worldwide, while the EA numbers are US only (maybe US and Canada?). EA is also not the only CCS network. That said, they do need to deploy faster and be more reliable.

Never had any issues with phantom braking in ~6,000 miles over bluecruise handsfree driving. As others have mentioned, I have had a to manually apply the brakes a few times when it wasn't showing down fast enough for my comfort.

Either something is wrong with you MachE, or it is the GTPE tires. Our GT is nice and quiet.

Yeah, but how much would it cost to swap out the sheet metal on the Model Y to get a decent looking vehicle! ;)

I will just add a couple pieces of advice. If you want this method as a backup, I would have a drop hitch along as well to help prevent the tow straps from cracking your front bumper. Also - your best bet is just to drive slower than you usually do, especially if a large portion of the drive...

My wife and I have been having this issue for about the last month and a half (Mach-e and Lightning / Pixel 5 and Pixel 7 Pro). We are pretty sure it happened after an android auto update and that the problem lies there vs. an issue with Sync since it started happening at the same time us and...

I can't agree with this until the infrastructure gets much better. There are times you need to go past 80% to reliably make it to the next charger and it seems wrong to penalize that. Even if not absolutely required, going past 80% can make a significant difference on a trip. I have a route I...

The ability to temporarily disable the front motor so we can do some proper burnouts! It is a Mustang after all. Heck, maybe a full up line locker!

You do have one of the more efficient trims. In our GT - 2.3 to 2.5 is normal on the highway, and it gets closer to 2.0 in the cold.

Nope, the Pro and XLT trims have Sync 4. Lariat and Platinum have Sync 4a - same screen as the Mach-e

Would take Knight Rider sounds too

Efficiency (mi/kWh) will be the big loss for me. I liked having that handy.

No, that is for current Lightning sales: https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/%F0%9F%92%B0-2022-f-150-lightning-price-list-invoice-msrp-options-codes.7906/

For the Lightning, Ford is giving dealers 10% if they follow all of the rules, so that is $5k to almost $10k per truck.
