    My 2021 Ford power boost was doing the exact same thing. 20,000 miles in gas and 1200 miles in Electric over its life is not worth the Drama ..Traded in on 2024 F350 diesel 4x4. They're gonna be the best looking things in the junkyard.

  • @1NastyGit
    @1NastyGit Před 2 dny

    So…the lesson here is, if you’re taking a long road trip with an EV, bring a charger and an extension cord that you know will work, and understand where your charging options are along the path in case your battery runs out due to unexpected weather/load. If you only daily drive your EV within the limits of your home city…this is probably not a concern.

    Tip for anyone interested in an EV. If you are planning on only keeping the vehicle for a short amount of time an EV is not for you. They depreciate even more than internal combustion vehicles. As long as you’re not planning trips over 120 miles away it’s not that bad. The electrical infrastructure needs a lot of work but it’s improving. City driving is the best when it comes to EV’s. I drive to work a round trip of 120 miles and my Chevy blazer ev is perfect it’s already saved me money.

    • @JettersGarage
      @JettersGarage Před 2 hodinami

      When I bought it. You could plug it in but charging wouldn't start until the location was registered with the truck. So it wouldn't just start changing. I think they have since fixed the issue. Or at least I hope they have.

    I’ve put a deposit on a 2017 Model S from a BMW dealer and it had free supercharging as per the previous owner. They don’t know anything about Teslas at all. But I noticed when I go on the charging screen it just says please add a credit card. I think the old Owner reset the car or something. Does this mean the free supercharging is gone? Will appreciate your help! Deal closes Friday

    • @JettersGarage

      The app needs to be transferred into your name from the last owner. If the app says free supercharging as features and specs when you transfer you are good to go.

      The price to charge an ev is much cheap than fuel, but can take time depending from what level you are charging at, from an hour on level 3 or days on a 120 volt. EVs are not worth buying right now, too expensive and in some years they'll learn to making better batteries and chargers

    I wanted one really bad. But first I took a trip to Key West and noticed that there was practically nowhere on the island to charge. Then when I got back and went to the dealers all the local dealers had marked them up almost $20k over MSRP. That was the nail in the coffin. I wasn't about to pay almost $80k for a vehicle that will be inconvenient to power. So.....I went down to the Jeep dealer and bought a Gladiator Mojave. Is it fuel efficient? No not at all. But at least it's fun and only cost me $60k 🤷‍♂️

  • @9pt9

    I paid $54k for a mid level trim model with the small battery. 4200mi on it and no issues. I live near a public charger and leave it overnight 2 times per week to charge. I’ve paid close to zero in fuel costs so far. We use this as our main family car and for running all errands. The truck really is amazing to drive. But at .35¢ per kWh in my state this truck would probably not be cheaper to run than gas. The free charging saved me from regretting my purchase.
