I hate the new UI on the drivers front screen.

I was updated a few days ago and don't see any of these issues...........so far. I especially like being reminded the speed at which I'm going is not knots but "Ground Speed" haha

My 67 Mustang has an empty bezel that should contain a clock but doesn't and a high beam indicator in the center of the cluster, the speedometer is off to the left side. What was Ford thinking? You all need to get over this, I'm sure Ford did it for a reason.

Why does my range suck in the winter though???
Good one, Pharaoh! Seriously, some folks may not recognize online sarcasm. And there are newbie buyers who have only just discovered this forum.

We only heard about this forum by word of mouth at a local EV exhibition. One year owner as of next month and I’m still learning about stuff here, including advice about issues discussed before I bought my Select.

i’d hate for the forum to become a “ clique” for guys who only want to show off their deep car knowledge and mock those who don’t and are only searching for advice or knowledge.

Let the pushback begin!

I joined because I finally had something I needed to say. I've been browsing since May 2023. I bought my MACHE CR1 in July. Oh, my battery is draining by the way. I know people are complaining about that in another thread. July'23 300@100% - January'24 289@100%. Still love the car more than my 2023 Tesla Model 3.
And where is the speedometer displayed on your Model 3?

I don't yet have 6.8.0
But I am in Europe and the Lane-Assist is always re-enabled by default after starting the car, I don't even bother to disable it to have the speedo centered ...

Don't know if the Lane-Assist is enforced ON at start in the US, but in EU it is by law for all new cars, and they even added new default alerts for cars made in 2024 like speed limit alerts ....
I sure hope Ford will not add these in an OTA .....

I liked how my screen looked before an update ruined it for me. I was used to seeing a blue bar along the bottom of the screen with the amount of battery remaining. My speedometer showed the speed right in the center of the screen. Now I have a car in the center of my screen and my speed is pushed all the way to the right where now my steering wheel blocks it. WHY FORD!? I hate it, it's a total waste of space. Unless there is something I'm missing. In the past I could get out of that screen layout by pressing the lane assist button and turning it off, then the screen would go back, but now it's stuck this way. I really hope I missed something.

Change can be tough for some.

I'm okay with the change, I mean it could always be worse, but that's not what bugs me. It's the "this is how it is now, and you have no way of reverting or changing it" approach that Ford's taking =/. We're at the mercy of whatever UI person's they have hired most recent idea of "cool".

Ah the irony... the same people whining about "oh good, another duplicate thread topic" are blowing up the thread with the same old and tired "oh good, another duplicate thread topic" rant. ?

Besides, the search functionality in this forum sucks, and more often than not, it misses on key words.
