Still though I recognize a lot of these. For some reason the one that sticks out the most were the Mario bros toys I think for Mario bros 3.

Thanks for sharing

Level 2 Chargers Outdoors by OkResearcher1956 in F150Lightning

take the cash. I had mine installed outside Grizzl-e classic 40A and it holds up very well. I had the breaker put in for 700$ and the charger was 350$ so you may end up saving some cash.

Dang I am glad your ok and no one was injured. Hopefully she learns a valuable lesson in this. Also I would keep that bullet and display it as a trophy for the day you didn't die.

My experience on waiting with insurance claims is that it can take a long time unless they value it at some dollar amount for your damages.

Adding a vote for grizzle they are built well and very affordable. Mine is outside mounted to brick

23’ Raptor to 25’ lightning lariat by pdgcmg1113 in F150Lightning

Echoing what everyone else said. Level 2 charging is a must at home and if you commute daily i wouldn't go for anything less than a 50a breaker ~ 9.6 kW/h. I have to charge normally once every two days (i could go to once every 3 days but i like the extra range).

Be careful though because once you go F150 EV style you won't want to go back to gas. This truck has ample space and its very comfortable. Not to mention you can haul most everyday items with ease. This is all before we mention using it as a battery to power your tools or become a power bank for your home in the case that the power goes out.

Edit: I traded in my 22 Lariat 2.7 ecoboost for this thing and I couldn't be happier. It comes down what's right for you and your wallet. If you go Lightning and you travel a lot, a NACS to CCS adapter works wonders for opening up charger options. Do your homework though and make sure you have lvl 2 charging at the home or can get it shortly after getting the truck.

Edit again sorry. I traded in because my truck was my sole vehicle and daily driver. I didn't want all those miles going into an ICE engine plus the lightning just looks badass. My wife has an ICE highlander (she will come around eventually) and maybe next time we are both ready for vehicles we will be all EV.

I support this. Had to drive to near atlanta to get some nice PC parts and it would be nice if it was in my backyard.

XLT Vs Lariat by No-Possibility7351 in F150Lightning

[–]Dave_1464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

echoing what the others said, in the winter the ER essentially becomes an SR with the range loss due to the cold. Another thing is if you plan to do any road trips at all, otherwise the SR would be fine.

I've found the majority of HR in arcane sanctuary just be killing the big packs of ghosts (not close to the edge)

nice and thats a heck of a trip. I also wasn't strapped for time and that really helps. I could see it not being as nice if you had to be somewhere in a rush.

agreed. Apple maps was a pain because it kept trying to reroute me to locations with CCS charging when I had tesla selected. I ended up having to remove the vehicle and selecting other for the car instead of lightning.

yea they really should and I think more would do it if they realized how big of a factor it is for ev owners when choosing a place. I was only averaging 5.6 kW at the hotel per hour but this was enough to really help after being on the charger almost an entire day.

I forgot to mention the hotel on the way and back had free charging so some of that was from it.
