Except range

@GRSEMETROMALL 2024 range listed is fully loaded with 4000 lbs of cargo. Real near empty range is over 200+ miles. Andrey tested the old version in wintry conditions to 165 miles. With a heat pump and bigger battery and faster charging. You should see 215-235+ miles. Chevy Bolt EV is considered long range with 238+ miles without heatpump. E Transit level 2 charging up to 19.2kW and DCFC NACS upto 180+ kW. 89kWh battery you're looking at a 200+ mile range with 30 minute fast charge. 8 hour level 2 charge with full 2.4kW internal power usage. Heater or AC with game machine TV fridge and Cooker.

@ dude I’m a courier. I need over 400. Really we need like five or six it’s about 1500 pounds. And one hell of a charging network.

@@GRSEMETROMALL bright drop offers 270-300 miles of range. You might get 500 in a stripped down Escalade iQ. I'm working on getting a police Vistiq five seater, cage, gun and computer safe, plus speed benefits 700/800 volt 170+kWh battery and 500+ mile range. Plus it is Fast. Police light bar integrated etc... and reasonable cost. Mind you police cost is more than courier cost.

@@GRSEMETROMALL you say you need do you need or do you need to pay for the operating costs. A WT4 Silverado work truck will give 450-480 miles of range. Charges up to 400kW and can give 400 miles in 30-45 minutes. Enough time to eat take breaks. Plus a 20 minute break three a day can give over 600 miles of range.

The two main options are: 1) An inset pannel, which uses pannel mount brackets. Less strong, but doesn't add any bulk and looks very clean. 2) A flush-mount panel that goes up against the aluminum. Stronger, but adds bulk to the external dimensions. I've seen a lot of people using this by default for all panels, which then makes the aluminum redundant. But it's a great option for easy cabinet doors.

@@ErikJohnson2020 could you include a KZbin link, seeing one would be very helpful

Honestly, it wouldn't be hard to just add a starlink dish on your own, rather than paying a premium for Ford to install it for you. Plus, that way, you can power it from your house batteries and not the starter battery.

It's fantastic for the weight and strength, plus it won't rot or rust. However, it does transfer a bit of heat into or out of the immediate floor space. I've measured it being a few degrees colder on the wood subfloor surface immediately above the rails vs in the center of an insulation pannel. If I was going to do it over, I'd probably use 1.5" polystyrene boards, with 1x1 aluminum tube, and epoxy a 1/2" strip of something like hard vinyl to one side of the aluminum tube to act as a thermal break from the van's metal floor.

Hey, I'm doing fine. Just had to focus on other aspects of my life for a bit, but planning on uploading more videos in 2025. Thanks for your concern though, it really does mean a lot.

🥰 Sincerely, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment. Genuinely made my day better.
