Just took a 600 mile road trip with an Ioniq 5, used four EA stations and had no major issues. The first 3 stops were flawless. At the last one, there was a session fault about 3 minutes into the charge. I just had to unplug and replug. Besides that minor inconvenience, no issues whatsoever.

I was seriously happy when they put out the f150 lightning because it looks like a normal and useful truck. I was considering it until I saw this video and others about towing with the lightning. Thank you for saving me $$$. I'll stick to a truck that can be used as a real truck without the anxiety of getting a recharge. Also spending all that quality time at a charging station while on vacation, wow... so much fun... if it took me 20 minutes to fill up only 10% battery I'd go mad. The high cost of gas over electricity is worth my time and mental state while on a long trip. Seems like electrics are only useful as commuter cars, for now. I'll give it another 10 years then maybe reconsider.
If/when Cybertruck gets here I think we’ll see a mind blowing charge rate, that’s what’s causing the delay. They’re trying to figure out how to charge 3x the battery in the same amount of time (hint:it involves a 450 kw/hr charge rate which many companies are working on) also solid state batteries will alleviate many of these 2nd gen EV problems as they will charge much faster. For now, if you work out of it; towing or hauling a load daily it’s either gas or diesel.
The key 🔑 will be the new Chevy SILVERADO RS electric it has 400 mile range and will be better for towing for now once they come out next year... Ford needs a bigger battery pack and all these manufacturers need a much lower cost solution for families if the product is to take hold...
I absolutely love my Lightning, and yes, I use it daily for work...as a work truck. Have driven over 6000 miles (in 3 months) and only fast charged 1 time. Now, I have decided that if I were to do regular long-distance towing, I would go diesel.
Those freewires have a 160kwh battery in them. Charges at a fast level2 rate but delivers 150kw on 1 or 75 kw on 2. It charges using 240, might be fun to have one of those at the house. For the times you need to slam some power into it while in your garage VS waiting for a level 2. Best part is that since the machine charges at a level2 rate, so you only pay level 2 prices at your house for fast charging!
Oh no doubt. The cost of the unit is probably astronomical so it wouldn't actually be a phesabl concept. But it's a way to get DC fast charging at your house without needing over 400V and 3phase
That Julesburg Freewire station would be more than enough juice if I needed to stop with my 58 kWh EV6 Light. That’s because I rarely add more than 40 kWh and often it’s in the 20-30 kWh range which equates to 27-55% of the usable 54 kWh.
My Mach e would charge at a high rate about 160 kw for 160 seconds then drop for the remainder of the session at about 100 kw. Is the lightning doing the same?
The car tells the charger how fast it can take a charge. The charger will then be limited by either the ability of the car to take a charge or the ability of the charger to provide said charge. Limits are usually temperature, but other factors can come into play.
I believe back in 1930 they could not find gas stations everywhere, plus they didn’t have the option of have a gas station at home. I’m all for evolution. Things take time. I’m about to get my Lighting delivered next year and planning to sell my motohome. Buy an TT but try not be over 5.000 pounds to maybe suffer a bit less lost of range.
IMO, I don't think such a thing is really needed in the Lightning, even at max tow payload. If there's one thing I hear consistently in tow range videos, is that it feels planted and stable under tow. I imagine the traction/stability control in an EV drivechain can react much faster and more accurately.
Jim Farley CEO of Ford told the government of Germany to ban ICE vehicles. They shot back saying, "No, we are working on alternative fuels." I believe once all the hoopla is over from politicians and manufacturers, EV's will be a niche market.
@richardk6291 . Possibly. I could see a move away from electric storage batteries in the future if we figure out a way to synthesize liquid hydrocarbon fuels. Net zero carbon means. Then all you need is fuel cells to convert that to electricity. Any process they come up with not involving a flame will be way more efficient. I have a feeling my not yet conceived grandkids will be the ones to see electric propulsion vehicles reach a level where buying ICE vehicles makes no sense.
When you're driving a quarter of a million dollars of equipment on the road and have to stop for over 2 hours to get 500 miles down the road I would call that unacceptable
Perhaps it is depending on one's schedule. I just took a 400 mile road trip and since one session was free it cost me $11.34 for the entire trip. I like saving money. Charging time was used for lunch and a bathroom break.

Main difference paved roads already. Waiting on some company to make a 500 mile range tow rig so I can get 230 to 240 miles of range for my hobby of going out to middle of nowhere to buy old cars.
Electrify America doesn’t build their own charging pumps. So they need to pick a new vendor. Hey, I know, buy private label charging stations from Tesla.

EVs are feasible now, except towing long distance is not a good idea. If they were driving a Tesla Cybertruck, they would have tons of reliable chargers to stop at. Hopefully Gabe Klein can expand the nation’s charging network quickly.
Planning a vacation around maybe finding a decent place to charge and adding hours and hours to a trip is insane. How do you keep kids safe in bad weather when you stop to charge? How do you stay cool or warm? Isn't it nice to have a vacation ruined by HOPING TO HAVE A GOOD CHARGER OR GET STRANDED? Seems idiotic to laugh about the fact that you waste so much time concerning charging and get so excited over watching the charge meter. So sad to see people wasting valuable family time on vactions.

It even dropped to 0.7 miles per % as the temperature dropped to what is still very much a warm 64F. Your truck that was rated for 320 miles of range can now barely do 90. I'm curious how much lower that number will get if you were to repeat this experiment in winter.
The mile per battery percentage is not a logical unit for discussion or comparison as it would change depending on the battery size in the vehicle and its efficiency. The only factor that would have to do with 'acceptability' is what the kilowatt per mile is relative to other electric vehicles towing the same load. There is no relevance to the "vehicle size" miles per kilowatt in this use case (which is currently about as extreme as it gets for EVs).
@@PatrixBest it’s possible winter towing won’t be much worse. That’s because summer towing required Ford to install a second cooling unit to keep the battery cool. So unlike 99% of EV travel in the winter with an ice cold battery running at low power output a winter tow might hammer a enough power through the battery to keep it at 25-30 C where these batteries like to be and store the nominal amount of energy.

Not great to see that EA stations on this route managed to get quite a bit worse in a few weeks between this trip and my trip this past weekend.

charging is going to suck in -30'c weather up here in canada
That’s really cold
You can pre condition the battery while you drive to the charger. The batteries will be at optimal temp for the charge. NEXT.
How many total hours did you charge vs how many miles sorry I probably missed it just went on a 600 mile rd trip and would like to compare
You would have 2-4 extra hours for charging.
My Mach e would charge at a high rate about 160 kw for 160 seconds then drop for the remainder of the session at about 100 kw. Is the lightning doing the same?
It gets 127kw-125kw on a fast charger up to 80% then cuts back to 50kw up to 90% then 90%-100% it's about 7hw so there is no point going passed 90%
The car tells the charger how fast it can take a charge. The charger will then be limited by either the ability of the car to take a charge or the ability of the charger to provide said charge. Limits are usually temperature, but other factors can come into play.
Very interesting. So what was the total miles driven and total cost of the charges?

So main question, how many miles on a full charge towing the airstream?
They were consistently getting something around 75 mi. With 80% SOC…so less than 100 mi with full charge.
