    Charging Port Door Lock Fell Off

    Hey folks, worst design ever. Door would not open so I pried it open and the pin broke the area around where it twists into place on the door. The pin survived 😂Might try Velcro but I suspect I need a new door. Ughh. Door does seem to stay closed but curious if a good bump would cause the door...

    Using space heater instead of HVAC system?

    Totally in love with my Mache. This will be my second winter with the car and when I use the heat to either heat the cabin or the windshield I have a significant drop in battery.

    California Begs Residents To Change Their EV Charging Routines

    With Ford Promoting the Lightning having 2 way charge port, have something on the grid where you get better rates if you keep the truck plugged in and the grid can grab electricity from the truck automatically when it needs it.

    (Updated!) Our 1st long road trip with 4 passengers/luggage (440 miles each way)

    I've not been able to get the EA app working so I've had to insert a card into a reader. glad it worked for you. My fordpass auto connect is also not working, also with our small bladders , we'd be stopping every 200 ish miles in an ICE anyways.
