The design itself is really cool looking! Bravo. It's way too busy for me to consider putting one on my vehicle though. I definitely lean toward entirely badge-less so offense intended.

I have a Pixel 9 Pro, Ford app version 6.9.0 - PaaK was very tempermental and almost useless when I first bought my 24' GT in December of 2024. Right after I bought the car, there was a major security update that broke PaaK for most folks. Whatever change they made a month or months later...

I'll be honest... I waited this long to reply because I basically forgot about it. The workaround is such a habit and works so well that I haven't worried about charging since I started doing it. It would still be nice if the EVSE worked as designed though! *edited for grammatical f&%$ery*

This touches so many nerves.... 😅 Just because you're at a point in your life that you can responsibly afford something fun, and then GET something fun, does not qualify as a mid-life crisis. Buying something impulsively that makes you happy doesn't qualify either. Enjoy your car guilt free...

We're now only a week away from 2026 and I haven't noticed an OTA update on the FCSP. Has anyone else?

As a 3D Printing enthusiast, I LOVE THIS. As a dog owner that has had to deal with this.... I can NOT handle riding with a dog in the front passenger seat because they do things like that. I got a pet hammock for the rear seats with mesh inserts for the vents and zip up panels that make...

Some automakers are doing it so of course they COULD make it a pay feature. It's likely not a matter of "if" but "when". However, I'd bet before Ford goes all-in on the pay features, they're going to watch Toyota and GM very carefully to see how customers respond. They (the companies) will...

PaaK was really hit and miss at first for my '24 but that was also in the midst of major update fuckery that caused all kinds of problems. It is now significantly more reliable for me. However, the car does not reliably wake up before I approach. I sometimes have to push the door button to...

My '24 GT pulls to the right. Done it since day 1.

I don't pay for anything other than my car payment and insurance. I don't need to pay for nav since I use android auto. And the hardware (unless it fails completely) isn't likely to age out anytime soon as all the heavy lifting is done by the phone. The car just needs projection to show...

ALWAYS.

Just like Amos, my wife was all too willing to fight me over that situation...

But then your utility bill will give you anxiety all over again! 😅

It's not just cold weather either. Before it got cold a few months ago, I took a two day trip (165 miles each way) that usually requires one charge on the way back. Starting at 100%, I had to charge once on the way because my efficiency got all the way down to 1.4 mi/kwh. Speed limit on that...

The Expanse fans will get it...
