The 15-80% in 41 minutes is from a DCFC station, not home charging. It's a different type of charging (Level 3 vs Level 2). So yeah, saying "it'll take hours to charge" isn't wrong, but it's completely ignoring the DCFC capability, which is what someone would use when they're on a road trip, or...
Ok, the quoted range is 300 miles, and you think it'll be 150 miles when fully loaded or towing. And "Time is money." How many contractors or commercial workers are driving more than 75 miles in one direction? After all, that's at least 60 minutes one-way depending on the roads, etc. and "Time...
Rachel,
Thanks for the update - while it's sad to not have the lights sooner, it's good to know that you're checking and double-checking before you send them out. That's much better than some companies who rely on the first batch of users to be their beta testers!
Looks similar to a Honda Ridgeline and serves the same purpose - get people into a truck that isn't a hardcore TRUCK truck. I think it's a great move by Ford and they might entice folks to move up to a Ranger or F150 as their next vehicle after this. It's definitely not a competitor to the...
I can't answer your first question but as to the second one, you request the badge after you've checked in, and they mail it to your house.
I'll be hitting Ocala in a couple of weeks, not looking forward to the pinstriping but it looks like one of the easier trails that I've done.
I'm heading out there on Saturday, looks like it'll be rainy. Any tips for wet on the trail? I did the Jeep Adventure Academy in Llano a few weeks ago so I have a new respect for the capabilities of the truck.
Man, I miss doing DK! I was overseas for the past couple and I haven't been riding enough to go for it this year, but I want to get back into it next year. I know there are a lot of gravel rides here in Texas so I need to get on the ball and start signing up for them. Lately all I've done is...
I was excited that it was in the Austin Craigslist because I'd love to go see it in person, but then I realized that it's actually in Miami and the Craigslist just defaults to my local city. Bummer.
If you just want simple sliders that aren't super fancy, get Rock Hard 4x4 sliders. I have the angled down version so it acts as a step for my wife, but it still gives about as much clearance as the Rubicon rails did. I've banged them against quite a few rocks and they've come through without...
I just read an article on The Drive about La Shirl Turner, the person responsible for the colors they use for Stellantis (formerly FCA) vehicles. I found the following quote amusing:
I love my StingGray, but if I had a Gobi I'd be glad to tell folks that story. The color looks good - some...
Yeah, I started biking a year or so after I started running. If I go out for an out-and-back run for an hour I'll see about 3 miles of the countryside at a leisurely 10-minute pace, but if I go for the same hour on the bike I'll see 8 or 9 miles of the countryside at a leisurely pace. I love...
1:35 - That's pretty fast! My best half is a 1:47. I did one a few weeks ago here in Austin and it was a 1:51 which felt pretty easy. I bet if I'd pushed a little harder I could have gotten into the 1:40's. But I'm not a fast runner. I actually started before that first hernia surgery 8 years...
