  1. Rivian R2 Reveal w/ R3 and R3X Surprises! $45K, 0-60 >3 seconds, 300+ miles range, NACS port, 4695 batteries

    Also announced today is that Rivian is "pausing" the construction of their $5B assembly plant in Georgia. As a nearby resident to this pipedream, I don't know how to feel. They plowed under hundreds of acres of bucolic farmland and now it's going to be a brand new brown field...
  2. NACS Adapter Now Available + Ford EV Owners Can Now Charge on Tesla Superchargers in U.S., Canada! 🙌

    I'm in the Please try again click reserve again loop. It took a couple of dozen Gathering Data screens to get here. Patiently clicking Reserve.... SimS Update. ~5 minutes later after posting above, success!! Order # 4137
  3. Anyone else having problems with Ford Credit and the balloon payment at the end of Ford Options?

    Well, I'll pile on to this Ford Credit scrum. I contacted FC about refinancing my Options balloon payment and the rep said "We're not a bank, we just process payments. You'll need to contact a financial institution." He offered to send me a payoff letter that I could take to the "financial...
  4. Vehicle comes to jarring stop while backing up

    I have had it happen more than once when I back out of my shaded garage into bright sunlight. My driveway is level and there are no nearby objects. Just a very distinct shadow cast by the garage roof. I'm not a fan of how it slams on the brakes at low speed. I'll leave it on though, just in...
  5. What is wrong with this picture?

    You're parked in a garage that's moving at 1 MPH. Neat trick.
  6. Metro ATL Dealer for windshield replacement

    I have a Select (2/2021). FordPass will have reminder/notice if the windshield recall is set for your vehicle.
  7. Metro ATL Dealer for windshield replacement

    X2 I need an Atlanta dealer or shop to do my windshield recall.
  8. Post here if you have an active FDRS account and are willing to look up info for others

    Thanks for the fast response. As far as comfort vs tech, I have a basic Select with no options. I wanted to be an early adopter, but I didn't want the complications of all of software driven features. So far, so good except for the OTA process. Sim
  9. Post here if you have an active FDRS account and are willing to look up info for others

    January 2021 build SR Select VIN 3FMTK1RMXMMA08379 I haven't received an OTA update since September '22. I'm curious if there is some kind of conflicting software bug/module/update that is preventing further updates. Thanks in advance for any info. Sim
  10. Recall- 22S41/22V412 Ford Dealer can't (or won't) perform the update

    With all the talk about side hustle to do FDRS updates... I wonder if Ford, when they split off an EV subsidiary, would be better served if they would set up an EV centric "Quick Lane" service and delivery model. That and internet sales would eliminate a bunch of issues with the current...
  11. OTA 1.7.1 Stuck, anyone else have issue updating?

    Yes, we have AT&T coverage. But I watched the network monitor and saw the connected SYNC downloading data via my home wifi network. I see that other folks have received OTAs on residential wifi. I'm with you, maybe OTAs are working as originally promised.
  12. OTA 1.7.1 Stuck, anyone else have issue updating?

    I used to have this opinion until yesterday. My car connected with my home wifi network and downloaded and updated to 2.6.0. The connected device was SYNC not TCU. It had failed a few days earlier. On the failed attempt the connected device was TCU. So, I don't know what the preferred process...
  13. OTA Powerup Software 2.6.0. First update in a while.

    I don't doubt you. I only know how my MME is working. Everytime I check my network it shows the MME off line. I was a "stuckee" and my upgrade to 2.1.0 after my dealer visit occurred away from my network. I have fiddled with update schedule, automatic update, etc. and so far no joy.
  14. OTA Powerup Software 2.6.0. First update in a while.

    @Logal727 On my car, when I shut off the car, it drops the connection to my home WiFi. So I guess OTA data transfer only happens in the wild. ??
