  1. Road rage incidents?

    The only thing I have encountered is while rolling into a concert the local sheriff directing traffic shouted into my rolled down window "that's not a Mustang", and I politely smiled and said "it sure is a Mustang, Sir" and kept rolling. I could see him laughing as I continued on. Other than...
  2. Windshield nightmare

    I'm in the same boat. I called ahead to both my insurance company and Safelite to make sure they would have the correct part before I showed up for my appointment. The MME was mis-identified in the online claim somehow. They assured me the VIN of my vehicle would ensure that the correct part...
  3. Dear West Virginia....

    Electrify America already called me back and said they are passing the suggestion along. Impressed by the quick response. I wish she had said that there are already plans in the works for charging stations along I-77 (or anywhere in the state of WV) but big kudos for the responsiveness.
  4. Dear West Virginia....

    That's not bad at all and would be the one alternate route that seems reasonable to me if we decide to take the MME.
  5. Dear West Virginia....

    Yes. None are really reasonable. They add far too much time. To the point that we would take my wife's ICE car instead.
  6. Dear West Virginia....

    US 33. I live in Pickerington, OH. Going out I-70 to Cambridge is an option but I am not sure I gain anything by charging in Cambridge.
  7. Dear West Virginia....

    Done! Good call out for sure.
  8. Dear West Virginia....

    Excellent point.
  9. iOS maps Adds EV Features

    That's great! Thank you! I wish it showed an icon for "speed check" on screen though. But I am going to give this a try for awhile. I would imagine it will take awhile for enough drivers to start reporting to be accurate but someone has to be an early adopter....
  10. Charging to 90%

    Got it! Glad I am not the only one who thought this was a little backwards. I'll make that change. Thanks!
  11. Charging to 90%

    Thanks. Now that I think about it, I am pretty sure I set this up in the car and not the app. It's been a few weeks now. However, the charge schedule is probably it..... Betting I have that set incorrectly. I think that felt counter intuitive to me for some reason and likely have it wrong...
  12. Charging to 90%

    FordPass app is set to only charge to 90%. Notification in app says my car "has charge to 90% per your charge settings. Enjoy your ride!". However - the car always shows 100% charged when I get in each morning. Is this normal? I can't believe that it is and I my car is actually charging to...
  13. Dear West Virginia....

    I-77 needs some EV love. For such a major interstate (and a toll road), the charging network is non-existent. I know you love your fossil fuels. But stubbornness will only isolate you. I am trying to route plan a trip to North Carolina and it is making me a bit nervous with a razor thin...
  14. How long to get that predicted 270 mile range?

    I've been ignoring the estimated range. It seems random (but so is my driving). In fact the other day, I got in and my car said I had 308 miles of range. Most mornings it reads 280-ish.
  15. iOS maps Adds EV Features

    Waze needs to do the same or.... Apple Maps needs to add crowd sourced data for police. The latter being preferred. I am over Waze. I am going to try switching to Apple Maps today and leave Waze running in the background to see if I still get the Waze alerts. Hanging with a friend over the...
