"range anxiety" is a thing of the past with every electric car going 200+ miles per charge. It is morphed into "charger, anxiety" because there's not enough chargers on the road. Tesla soon will change the game letting us all use their superchargers. There's a minimum of 16 to 30 at most stops.
I recently went to a Tesla Supercharging station with my 2023 Mach-e. All of the stations were back-in and the cord wouldn't reach. I have that small tesla mach-e adapter but the cord wouldn't reach unless I parked sideways which would have taken 3 parking places (and chargers). Is there some sort of extension cord I can get so I can pull in forward and plug in the Mach-e?
Loved the video! Dude was chill. The secret word Gummy Bears. I think the model x is cool. Still would never own an ev personally. Fast charging. 😉 Love ya brother and tell the family we said hello 👋
" fast charging" very informing and appreciated !! I especially appreciate the info on the "Tesla" chargers with buit in ford adapters .....must be something recent and I guess on DC superchargers only [my ride = '23 Mach-E premium AWD extended range 91Kw battery , dual motors] and I am in = Central , Cold , Country = Winnipeg , Manitoba , Canada KEEP up informing us !!!
This video didn't help me at all because I ended up with my adapter at a Tesla charging station and my Tesla app wouldn't recognize I was there, my Ford app wouldn't recognize I was there, even the EVconnect app wouldn't work for me. How is the charger supposed to know I'm there and how do I pay for the charge, I had to drive all the way to a Chevrolet dealer in terrible traffic to get a charge.
Not all Super Chargers have the Magic Dock. Most don’t. You have to use the Tesla app and the Tesla app only. When you go on the Tesla App select Charge My Non Tesla. It will show any with Magic Docks that are near your location. If it shows a Charger with a lock that means you can’t access it. As far as I’m aware you can’t use your own adapter at the Super Charger. That will change in Spring if you own a Ford Mach E or a Lightning. Hope this helps. I will make another video to be more clear.
I just ordered an adapter that is NACS to CCS for my Mach E. I see in your video that the Supercharger already had an adapter. Do you think my new adapter will work the same on the Tesla charger and not give me any issues even if the Tesla charger is not set up for my Mach E?(ie standard Tesla plug)
In this video they're using a Magic Dock Supercharger. The Ford/Tesla NACS to CCS adapter is pretty much identical to the magic dock adapter. I imagine you bought something like the A2Z adapter and that's pretty similar too. I hope you've gone and requested your free Ford adapter too! - Liv
No, it used to LOCK the car in neutral. Regen gear is activated when one pedal driving or whisper mode is enabled. It takes me 10% to get to work but with regen it takes 5%-7%.
I know nothing about electric cars, so this question may be dumb. If you ran out of electric, could someone with another electric car help you out? BTW, the secret phrase of the day is "Fast Charging".
So far, some electric trucks can with 240v, while cars can with 120v which is very, very slow. But still possible. I've also seen some do it with portable solar panels. Again, very slow, but possible.

How do you know which Tesla chargers have the Mach E adapter?
When you go on the Tesla App it there’s spot where it says charge your no. Tesla. That will tell you if you close to any with the adapter built in.
Fast charging!
How do you know which Tesla stations have the adapter for other brands?
The Tesla phone app let's you know. If you don't have a Tesla, it will only show the superchargers you can charge on in their map.

Gummy Bear huh? Interesting. Sounds good. The gold ones are the best. Yeah he was a cool guy.

That CCS plug is obscenely BIG. why is is to big, what does it do that the Tesla wand doesn't?
Connect to non-Teslas at Tesla superchargers
What do I get for saying fast charging?
What happens if your car runs out of electricity? I never thought about it Germ
Same thing if it runs out of gas.
@@thegerm574 Can someone with an electric whatever-you-call-it come & give you a charge to get you to the next charging station?
@richardhales92 right now only the electric F150 can charge up another electric car. Rumor is the Cybertruck is supposed to be able to do it too.
@@spiritedgarage thanks. I never thought. Appreciate your input.
@@richardhales92 Hyundai Ioniq 5 can charge another ev, and appliances in your house if needed . I think the Ioniq 6 can do it too.
cool, hope it's working in Europe soon

Is L the regen gear selection on mach E?
No, it used to LOCK the car in neutral. Regen gear is activated when one pedal driving or whisper mode is enabled. It takes me 10% to get to work but with regen it takes 5%-7%.

Germ, do another video with special guest, Tonto
Can anyone recommend a good Tesla-to-Mach E charging adaptor??
