Exactly, don't put something rated for only 50 amps with a breaker that trips at 60.
Thanks! Sounds like this is the prudent way to go if I want to be sure I'm ready for the car.
Actually what is required for the 48amp charger is 6/3 Gauge, you can put a 60amp breaker on that, especially If the run is complicated like mine. 4gauge is very hard to pass in the ceiling especially if your beams are closed off. If your panel is in your garage than go ahead and pass the 4 gauge. In my case my charger didn't need a neutral, just 2 hots and ground. Not sure about the Ford charger. I forgot to mention, the charger being a 48 amp has to be hardwired.
In Jersey-That mystery meat can be one of two things-Depending on where you are in the state. It’s either Taylor ham or Porkroll.
I for the first bit do not need the 40 amp charger. A standard nema 14-50 (rv, stove, welder outlet) appears to work with ford, tesla and most likely others LR chargers to come. The road charger and a universal plugin has enough amps for me. The 40 amp gives what 10 kw vs 7 of the ford? I will likely grab a second ford plugin charger for back up at some point. Will wait to see if the Ford road charger does adequately . For me it is about it having enough juice to keep itself maintained sitting in the cold temps. Northern states should be able to relate to that. As far as the increase in charging speed that is just not worth the cost; if I really need it I can run to a 50 kw. Depends on what suits your needs and all have different.
Your 3 wire charger probably has a 6-50 plug on it instead of 14-50
I'm in the same boat (didn't really need 40A, and was just gonna use the included mobile charger first and maybe get something later). But here in the US there's a 30% tax credit for chargers expiring this year, so that effectively made the Grizzl-E only $250 for getting it now. Couldn't turn that down.

In quebec we get 600$ and municipalities add to it. Its a state/provincial incentive.I'm in the same boat (didn't really need 40A, and was just gonna use the included mobile charger first and maybe get something later).

Looks like you're in Canada though do that doesn't apply. (Ironically, the Grizzl-E is made in Canada though.

My guess is that's already happening. There are 2,000 + FCTP / Demo Mach-E's for the dealers that ordered one that will be assembled first and should be some on the line now.

Probably not coming off the line nearly at normal production rate yet, but hopefully soon be at a rate to finish these off and move on to the really important run --- The First Editions.
