I've got a Ed1 I put the 22" OEM rims on a more road oriented Wrangler AT and I'm getting close to 380 miles at 70mph at about 72F and no wind. Instrumented acceleration in WTF is 3.05sec to 60.

The drag due to wind eliminates not in a loop because the drag is non linear! This applies also to velocity differences. If you go faster to compensate for a lower speed in order to keep a certain average speed it will not work that way. Because of the non linearity!! Keep that in mind!

While I love my F150 Lightning there are some things I'd like to see. One would also be handy on a Rivian or even a Hummer EV, the "eco" mode option that would say switch to 2-wheel drive instead of all 4 (so, in Ford's case only powering 1 motor instead of 2), but it could use the non-propelling motor to regenerate while braking. I think that could really extend range in situations when one isn't towing/hauling or driving for sport performance or off-roading.

I like the big Bolt layout. Push button start no pop out door handles and the Regen paddle. Plus it has the same turn circle SUV=EV, Pickup=EUV.

What an absurd vehicle with actually pretty solid range

In the UK Instavolt uses the same chargers. Even those rated for 50kw rarely reach their potential. The 350s are much better but the 50 and 150s aren’t great. We have to pay 79p per kW for the privilege of using them, meaning that even a small battery will cost as much as an ICE for a full charge.

10:02 We are going to go automatic at 68 degrees"....1 second later moves it to 70 😂

I would have left the spare in , it probably only makes a small difference, but still you test it as you would normally drive it .

Looks like for every 100 miles of highway driving, you need 1 hour of charging. So on a long distance trip, drive for 2 hours the charge for 2 hours. Unless, you have to wait in line to charge. Would hate to be 18th in line. The vehicle and batteries are new. Your performance will only go down from here.

Top Speed is 105MPH. Which is incredibly low, even for such a large vehicle. I mean at least make it 120MPH so that your highway cruising speed of 80-85MPH isn't nearly maxing out your over priced EUV. I heard the top speed is set so low because of the tremendous 9,000 lbs. weight and limiting the speed to prevent tire blow out. So perhaps with better tire compound that can increase? I am sure it has the capability to go faster. Just a matter of software update or a hack.

My Duramax (Silverado 2500) governor was factory set at 95MPH and my Chevy Kodiak 5500 was factory set to 85 MPH. My Jeep Grand Cherokee (5.7L Hemi V8) was limited to 106 MPH if I recall.
