For those with Ford EV, looks like Google Maps has a bug with integration
Looks like rolling back to previous version of Google maps will fix it.
In the Mach-E integration, many of us are noticing that the destination mileage is being shown as 0.

See the following

"... installed version by version to see which was the last Google Maps version that worked... That version is:

@vpermar @caseyliss My #F150Lightning with a cheap Vevor EVSE had no trouble on an inverter type generator... but that's a good thought.

@jimsalter Wonder how much will just go into heating vs charging.

There was one night, going at 12A@120VAC, we didn't realize it was dropping to -28C outside... woke up to ~100 watt hours added. That's watt hours, not kilowatt hours.

At least it made the DCFC kick in at full rate when I got there.

(#F150Lightning XR for the record.)

#Ford ends #F150Lightning production, starts battery storage business for #datacenters
Ford says it will invest about $2 billion over the next two years to scale the new business. The Kentucky site will be converted to build advanced battery energy storage systems larger than 5MWhr, including LFP prismatic cells, BESS modules, and 20-foot DC container systems — the kind of hardware increasingly used by data centers, utilities, and large-scale industrial companies.

Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business

It looks like battery electric vehicles are out of fashion at the Blue Oval.

Ars Technica

I'm disappointed to hear that there wont be any more Lightnings for awhile. I hope the new EREV Lightning when it comes out will bridge the gap until battery towing tech gets there.

At the same time, Im just thrilled with my '22 and Im going to hold onto it for as long as I can.

So long to the only truck I thought I'd ever own...

@Engadget @tech-news-Engadget this is the problem with a lot of the #Tesla #Cybertruck ridicule. There are very few #EVs with its capabilities. And none in Europe. Now with the #Ford #F150Lightning out, there are even fewer.

(And I totally get hating #Elon)
