That’s too bad, I love my lightning. I spend about $20/month on home charging, love the acceleration and it’s good enough to haul all the things I need for my small farm.

Also, it’s great for long distance recreational drives (from a very specific perspective)- I like driving 250-300 miles in a day and then parking at an RV spot for the night instead of a hotel room. I can run the heat and AC all night as well as have a “full tank” ready to go.





I would've loved to get a lightning when we replaced the farm truck this year. If would've been great to be able to charge it while our solar array was pumping out power. But the price on those things is eye wateringly high. We got a gas f150 for about half the price of the lightning. I'm not sure who they were trying to sell those to, to be honest.

I got my extended range for $51,000

Hello fellow Flash owner. I assume (that's basically what I paid for my 2024 Flash; I was a little under that, but close enough).

2023 ER Pro actually

Oh! Forgot they made ER pros. A great truck! All the battery without the dorky screen ;-)

Most campgrounds I’ve seen here (Northern California) explicitly say you can’t charge your EV in RV spots.

Ah, maybe they’re catching on then. I haven’t run across one yet.

It's less a matter of "catching on" here, and more that if they get too many EV chargers in campground spots, breakers start tripping.
