Joyeux Noël et bonne année à vous aussi.

Some earlier qualitative reports were saying that braking was slow. These are very good stopping distances.

For those of you who have had iPhone battery drain issues using Ford Pass, I just received this.

Given Apple's track record with iPhone battery performance, life, and the way those force planned product obsolescence, I'll give their car a pass.

Cool. The 'K" series number plate tells us that the blue car is registered in Köln Germany (aka Cologne), but the video was shot somewhere else. I couldn't quite work it out for sure. The palms trees and features of the people suggest southern Europe. I'm guessing Spain.

There's an (in)famous 11' 8" bridge in North Carolina that's eaten more vehicles than you can believe. Drivers don't see the sign, ignore the flashing lights and still drive under it. There are lots of videos. Why do I find these entertaining? ??

The manual list of examples is very sparse. I found this in the manual for temperature, but so far haven't found a complete list of Sync 4A voice commands.

Dear Mom. How I lost my job today. ?

I have a 4k drone and am a licensed Part 107 pilot. But there's no way I'm making that trip!

Ford makes a big deal out of personalization, e.g. 3 memories and all of that for seats, climate -- tons of stuff. And then you reach down to unlock the steering wheel tilt/telescope and adjust it manually. A bit of magic lost. Having said that, agreed. It is a first world problem. ?

My Lincoln MKX has it. As much as the Mach E weighs, the delta weight is negligible. The resultant loss of personalization is inexcusable. It's pissing my wife off already before we even get the car.

I'm going to try my darnedest to hack the outside pedestrian alert noise to the Jetson's sound.

Appreciate your analysis and I’m not shooting the messenger here. BUT what was my $500 for? To make me feel special? Because it’s not working...??

Well, I'm happy that someone's happy! ?

Except that my order number has stayed the same since 6/24 despite my two changes. However the changes could have messed up my place in line (despite my reservation number). Am I wrong in thinking that VINs don’t get assigned until production?
