Ford F-150 Lightning owners are surprised with an attachment that can recharge stranded Teslas

Ford has been loud about the new F-150 Lightning’s bi-directional charging feature, which allows owners to use the huge battery of the electric truck to charge other EVs. And, reportedly, the company is now incorporating a new adapter so that these Good Samaritan truck owners can assist stranded Teslas.

A user of an internet community for new F-150 Lightning customers posted a snapshot of the new accessory, a J1772 Adapter for Tesla automobiles by Lentz, an EV charging firm. The owner was taken aback because the adaptor was not listed among the normal extras that came with the new truck.
