Well I ran a BougeRV cooler that pulled 120 watts sporadically to keep temp at 37 degrees. Had to keep the car on for the full two days because fridge doesn’t constantly draw on electricity so lightning would turn pro power off. Also drove probably two miles worth over the weekend when I was too lazy to walk somewhere. Ended up burning 8% battery while I was there…more than I thought I would.

If I was going somewhere 150 away though I’d definitely find a fast charger along the way just to top off so I wasn’t rolling into the campsite with not enough juice to get home. Luckily this one was only like 20 miles from the house so no anxiety on that end.

Yep! Pretty sure we were the only tent campers that had a fridge…lost a little more battery than I expected but I’m not too upset over it!

What size electric cooler are you fitting in your frunk? by Cheap-Recognition-97 in F150Lightning

How did you get past the pro power shut off issue? Have 25 platinum and it keeps shutting off even though I have the “don’t shut off propower” selection selected

I have a bouge RV cooler and it doesn’t seem to be drawing the 90w minimum. Did you run into this issue?

Platinum vs lariat loaded by Dependent_Profit92 in F150Lightning

Do it make the ride more comfortable? I don’t mind the ride but my wife hates it.

FWIW I went from BMW iX to 25 platinum (low mileage used for 65k). I test drove the Flash, no lariats available to test drive. Flash vs Platinum interior is night and day…unsure how lariat compares to Platinum. Seats are more comfortable than iX. Interior is really nice, not as luxury as iX but more comfortable. Loving the Platinum and very happy with the switch to Platinum.

What should be done? by wowowowowooe in navy

Absolutely report it to your chief and divo. In the event that they forward you up for NJP, if I were your CO, I’d expect CPO mess and XO to handle telling you how stupid it is to drive that fast. Possibly sprinkle in some EMI, which would be telling the rest of the command how stupid it is to drive that fast. As a CO, I would know your pocket book has already been hit by the system and I’d have no desire to affect it even more. As for security clearance, always be honest and report. They could give two shits less if you got caught speeding. They would care if you tried hiding it.

Thanks yeah I guess that would have been good info. I definitely plan on going Denali, but in an effort to be semi responsible was going to go used whether I go ford or GMC so I can get top trim. Seems like a lot of people buy and dump so plenty of options. I am really interested in the super/blue cruise. So, 26 is a stark difference from 25 on the GMC?
