I am sure a more technical person has answered this, but still finding my way around, I have a dedicated circuit, 50amp and the dryer style wall socket already set in a new build home, are the chargers Ford is suggesting able to just plug into this or are they hard wired? Any thoughts will be appreciated

Can you post a picture of the socket? Preferably a close up.

If it's an electric range style outlet, it's likely NEMA 14-50, so the included Ford mobile charger will plug right in. Dryer's typically use NEMA 14-30, but if your breaker is 50A, that's not likely what you have.

Also the NEMA 6-50
