Thank you very much, on there briefly and looks like a good resource for many things.

Ford passion coming out in this thread. I have never owned a ford car, but have had (and still have) real ford work truck, Transit 250., previously was a Ford E250, and an older Ranger. All served me well, so I decided to try maverick for my personal vehicle. I looked at the Nissan...

Why hybrid responses only?

I wouldn't call it a problem with AI, instead it's something to consider when using the tool. Just as when the internet was new to everyone, we had to learn to be careful what info was presented to us. You're right in the sense that the output AI engines spit out is only as good as the...

I can vouch that the bike fits in the back but I have to take the front wheel off , even then bike has to be on a 45 degree angle and have to turn the handle bars facing up, then I can close to tonneu cover.

You can't be serious, but maybe you are, such a detailed message.... So let me get this straight, you work and you can't spend your hard earned money? Stand up for yourself , show her you're the man. and that you're not going to take this anymore..... Oh wait , I hear my wife calling...

I couldn't help notice you have a raspberry pi in your profile pic. Nice :)

I don't see any problem with these, and they have the added benefit of raising the objects you have a little and water will drain through .

cheaply done? I don't think so, it is simple and clean, does the job, I don't want to pay for glitter and what some gucci or prada designer did, it's not going to make the vehicle more reliable or functional.

I don't know what this has to do with maverick, but I'm going to jump on the wagon. Every morning, this is what I have for breakfast.... A table spoon of each, Walnuts, Pecans, pumpkin seeds, Pitted Prunes, Granola, All Bran Buds, Oatmeal, Almonds, Maple Syrup, drowned in coffee...

It doesn't take much for the vehicle to be a writeoff,. Anyway sounds like you escaped injury, cars are replaceable, people not.

Wow I better be careful... Maverick police lurking.

Go easy on OP,he did mention hybrid in the original post.

Got it , because those appliances are not on full time.

Ok thanks, but I think this is a missed opportunity by ford engineers. No alternator needed and they could have charged the 12volt from either source.

Maybe this is how it works, if someone who knows could verify. Perhaps the 12 volt batt is indeed being charged when the ICE is running, I think it's possible. The ICE is already producing DC to charge the HV battery, it's easy to tap off that line, step down the HV DC through a DC-DC...

BTW, I don't think it's easily fixed, otherwise the software engineers would have done it long ago. I imagine getting the algorithm tuned is a balancing act, a compromise , a hole which they have dug for themselves by not including an alternator. I have read many posts here that suggest...

Why suck precious power from the HV battery when running the ICE and alternator, power is essentially free.

Thanks Gary, I wonder why the engineers left out the alternator, no room ? I understand that while the car is running on the HV battery, the ICE is not running so even if it did have an alternator, it wouldn't help, but for the time the car is under ICE power it could have charged the...

I'm not sure that's a good idea, but if you're going to do this, you need to know how many Amps inline and get a diode that can handle the current. But, just curious, do the Hybrids not have an alternator? They charge from the high voltage battery?
