You can turn that off. Page 52 of the manual.

Yea, I had to go out and look at mine again. I had it in my head that the fan was turned by the compressor and not an actual separate fan driven by an electric motor. In looking at the brushless manual (section 5.1.2) there is indeed thermo protection for the motor and it clearly states that...

Am I reading this right that the unit has a fan not run off the compressor? There is a separate electric motor to run a fan independent of the compressor? Just trying to get my head around the issue.

I have not. What is the stock battery not providing that you need?

Are you announcing your departure?

Don't pay for it, boycott any stupid subscription service.

I don't think the data is out on EV motors lasting as long as commercial 450v, 4160v, etc. electric motors that get a ton of maintenance performed over their lives. My background is Naval Nuclear Power where these motors go 50 years and never have an issue but they get tons of maintenance. I'm...

Are you talking about commercial electric motors or electric motors mass produced for passenger cars?

So you're saying that the AC may run year round? Or at least the 6 months of the year opposite of what we do in the south? Bottom line is that the test wasn't done in a realistic manner, it was done to prove a bias that ASS works.

Can't read your window sticker, but as a Base, $30-35ish. Last year we got $44 from insurance for our totaled '22 BL, MID, non-SAS.

Wonder if they ever use defrost in AK, ND, or ID? From the owners manual: Note: When maximum defrost is on, the air conditioning compressor may continue to operate even though you switch off the A/C.

Seems to me that they were looking for a specific result in not using the AC. I live in VA, my AC is NEVER off (12 months of the year it is on). What were they trying to hide, why not run with the AC to get an actual result? Not having the AC on my opinion invalidates the test. Why not run...

I like it, I'll be in the market for a replacement for my '15 Grand Cherokee around then, hope it ticks the boxes. I'm pretty disappointed in the Gen 6 4-Runner (my daughter just bought one and overall the car is really nice) due to how they changed the rear seats. Can no longer just flip them...

I love the ASS Virtue Signaling. I drive a vehicle that gets 16-22 MPG, 90% of the time by myself but I ALWAYS use ASS, look at ME, I'm saving the planet. Too funny.

I think it’s ironic that Ford “allows” me to turn off the seatbelt reminder so that I can drive around all day with no belt on and no annoying warning but I have to push the stupid ASS button every time I drive my car, well not me personally cause I installed the dongle.

This would periodically happen to my wife as well. I always accused her of grabbing the handle and putting her thumb on the lock button at the same time. I told her that she was "confusing" the Bronco. I never had the issue as I, of course, know how to open a car door. If they do find the...

We have the Ford mats in our BL (washout interior but I believe they make them for carpet as well). They fit perfectly and are very good quality.

I would love that, they should also be an ex EPA employee.

It cracks me up to hear people say, "Well they put in a beefier started and battery to compensate for the ASS". Ok people, so we build heavier components and use a gallon of diesel fuel to save a teaspoon full of gasoline all the while patting ourselves on the back saying how great we are in...

Can anyone that "likes" the ASS feature please point me to a study that shows how much fuel has been saved since its implementation and the overall net positive benefit to the environment? I would also like to see that study, if it exists, compared to the environmental cost of implementing said...
