  1. Mustang Tesla?

    I saw this conversion today in Leiden,NL, same idea as the mustang, very different result. The owner wasn’t there so no chance to ask questions.
  2. Mach-e would not start charging from 97% full

    I did a search in the .pdf of the manual, and 97% is not in there.
  3. Mach-e would not start charging from 97% full

    Will it charge at 96%, 95%? do you know the limit? Thanks,
  4. Mach-e would not start charging from 97% full

    The charging ring flashed blue for a few seconds, then stopped. Everything was set to charge immediately. I agree, 3% is less than 10 miles, so not a big deal. But I was about to go on a long trip, and those 10 miles might be the difference between stopping once, or stopping twice. In the...
  5. Mach-e would not start charging from 97% full

    I observed that my Mach-e ('25 premium, standard range, RWD) would not charge when it was at 97%. I tried both my Ford charger, and a portable charger that I have used when traveling. Neither worked. I had no problem charging once the level was down below 85%. It seems that there is some sort of...
  6. Set up iPhone as a key

    I've been using PAK on my iPhone 16 without any issues, other than an occasional odd message on the dashboard about no key found after the car started. I had problems with an earlier iPhone. There are instructions here for setting it up...
  7. BlueCruise is nice, but not worth what it costs.

    I splurged for Blue Cruise in December since I knew I would be doing a lot of driving. I drive about 1200 miles during the month, and about 900 with Blue Cruise active. That works out to about $0.05 per mile. My Blue Cruise cost per mile was very close to my electricity cost per mile. I really...
  8. CarPlay Drops Out

    I suspect you are correct about it being an iOS issue since the fix that I used was done just on the phone.
  9. CarPlay Drops Out

    I'm a big Car Play fan. However, half way home on a one hour drive, Car Play stopped working. I had been using wireless Car Play, so I tried plugging in the phone, but that didn't help. I was able to continue listening to my podcast through Bluetooth, but the Car Play interface was gone. Car...
  10. Re: Tesla may be looking to Apple CarPlay to boost flagging sales

    The lack of Car Play disqualified the Equinox EV for me. Apple pod casts was the app that I considered a must have.
  11. What is the point of BlueCruise?

    The main advantage that I see for using BC is I don't get yelled at to keep my hands on the steering wheel every so many seconds, even when my hands are on the steering wheel. I guess I just don't tug on the wheel enough otherwise. Ford needs to add the capacitive feature that Hyundai/Kia has...
  12. BlueCruise Price Drop?

    Can I buy it for a day? That might actually make sense for the random one offs
  13. PAAKL: What a difference a phone makes

    I like my '25 MME, but the software is buggy. The PAAK is just one example. It is great when it works, until I need to pull a fuse to make it work again. CarPlay is wonderful, except when it decides not to work, even with the cable plugged in. One day my rear hatch decided it didn't want to...
  14. Who would pay $650 a year to renew Blue Cruise?

    GM supper cruise runs about $25 per month for a very similar product. I might be willing to pay $20-25, but $50 is too much to pay for not having the reminder to steer pop up every few minutes.
