Last trip was about 100 miles 20s or so. 100% charge, I think the guess pre-drive following that last drive (for this one) was 161 miles / 100%. Goal was to take soc down to below 90% to test my charging limit.

At 35.7 miles (way past the destination grocery store), 55 minutes, 50F, local roads and two lane highways, 2.6 mi / kW (lots of heat on) GOM read 160 miles / 89%. (384 mi total on car), return trip was 6.7 mi, 16 min (may include some parking lot tablet settings time), 3 mi/kWh. Got home with GOM 160 miles / 85%.

I vaguely recall GOM readings of 157 to 161 mi during the trip.

Not worried, it is probably just learning. I wonder if the GOM has a problem raising the number over what it is/was? In other words, it might not "catch up" until I get the actual range under 160 miles?

Anyway, mission success, I set the charge limit to 85%, and got a Ford Pass ping, you are charged to your desired 85% limit!
