  1. @qlp almost 3 years of #F150Lightning for me now - never looked back. And I do lots of long road trips! Soon to hit 77777KM too.

  2. @Priyajsridhar
    I'm happy & sad that my beloved truck is in the shop, but I wasn't hurt. Neither was the sign that *leaped* in front of me in the parking lot, wreaking havoc to my undercarriage.

    OTOH, I had PIZZA!!!! For the first time since 2015, when I realized I was lactose intolerant, I had delicious pizza, thanks to Amy's frozen vegan pizza. Can't wait to try the other available flavors!

  3. @Priyajsridhar
    Today, my joy comes from our visiting kitty, Fuzzbutt (we did NOT name him) coming out of his shell and starting to camp out on hubby's office chair back (with hubby in the chair!).

    Also, my truck messaged me to let me know I had a low pressure tire (there was a puncture) and the tire place put on the spare for free. Maybe they were embarrassed *I* had to google where the stuff was to lower the spare? [Behind psgr rear seat]

  4. Ford’s blue oval just wrote off the F‑150 Lightning, while GM takes a $7.6 B hit and Stellantis follows suit. What does this mean for EV investments and the future of Detroit’s automakers? Dive into the details and see how the industry is reshaping. #F150Lightning #ElectricVehicles #GM #Stellantis

  5. For those with Ford EV, looks like Google Maps has a bug with integration
    Looks like rolling back to previous version of Google maps will fix it.
    In the Mach-E integration, many of us are noticing that the destination mileage is being shown as 0.

    See the following

    "... installed version by version to see which was the last Google Maps version that worked... That version is:

    Google Maps 25.49.11.838461706"

  6. @vpermar @caseyliss My #F150Lightning with a cheap Vevor EVSE had no trouble on an inverter type generator... but that's a good thought.

  7. @jimsalter Wonder how much will just go into heating vs charging.

    There was one night, going at 12A@120VAC, we didn't realize it was dropping to -28C outside... woke up to ~100 watt hours added. That's watt hours, not kilowatt hours.

    At least it made the DCFC kick in at full rate when I got there.

    (#F150Lightning XR for the record.)

  8. #Ford ends #F150Lightning production, starts battery storage business for #datacenters
    Ford says it will invest about $2 billion over the next two years to scale the new business. The Kentucky site will be converted to build advanced battery energy storage systems larger than 5MWhr, including LFP prismatic cells, BESS modules, and 20-foot DC container systems — the kind of hardware increasingly used by data centers, utilities, and large-scale industrial companies.

  9. @Engadget @tech-news-Engadget this is the problem with a lot of the #Tesla #Cybertruck ridicule. There are very few #EVs with its capabilities. And none in Europe. Now with the #Ford #F150Lightning out, there are even fewer.

    (And I totally get hating #Elon)

  10. Ford, elektrikli F-150 Lightning üretimini durdurabilir! ⚡️ Milyarlarca dolarlık zarar ve zayıflayan EV talebi, otomotiv devini strateji değiştirmeye itiyor. Elektrikli araç pazarında neler oluyor?

  11. #Ford Considers Scrapping Electric Version of #F150 #PickupTruck
    Once hyped as a ‘smartphone that can tow,’ production of the money-losing #EV #pickup may be shut down for good
    #F150Lightning, once described by Ford as a modern #ModelT for its importance to the company, fell far short of expectations as American truck buyers skipped the electric version of the top-selling truck. Ford has racked up $13 billion in EV losses since 2023.

  12. @stephanie I frequent a small Caribbean Island Nation (for work), where I'm known as "the Canadian with the #F150Lightning" (at home, that is), and EVERYONE there sends me updates about whopping TWO Lightnings in the country - all the friggin' time.

  13. @auxonic @Dianora @lerxst will dogpile happiness with my #F150Lightning BEV, but I appreciate most people don't need a big truck. No ragrats tho - I use the hell out of it. Over 60,000KM in less than 2 years.

  14. @Nerdfest pretty seamless with my #F150Lightning - and yes, I have to tie up 2-3 spots at some stations. Mercifully I've only ever needed to use them about 4 times.

  15. @silvermoon82 it's happening more and more; the 'hidden' cost of setting up EVSEs is significant though. Been seeing a bunch of medium-sized trades with EV vans showing up, gobs of Elechickens are driving Lightnings too.

    I'm still loving the #F150Lightning - packetfactory.social/p/myke/85

  16. I've been charging my #F150Lightning on a standard North American household wall socket in my garage for over 2 years. For daily running around and longer weekend trips, it's more than enough. #EV #QT mas.to/@TechConnectify/1146884
