  1. Ford Patent Filed For ‘Pet Mode’ System, Would Rival Tesla’s Dog Mode

    I've owned my MME since April 2021 and think I was one if not the first person in NC to receive one. I've had zero problems withe the vehicle, mechanically at least, and generally love the car and recommend it to prospective buyers. The biggest complaint I've had since day one has been the issue...
  2. Draw-tite Trailer Hitch Receiver Install

    Lots of very useful information on the Draw-tite hitch install. After swapping cars with my wife for over a year so I could use her car equipped with a hitch, i realize it's time to bite the bullet and just install it one the MME. Looking at the e-trailer website I see that Draw-tite now offers...
  3. What's Your ONE THING for Ford to Improve?

    I'm having the same issue with Ford Pass not detecting the Bluetooth signal and preventing use of PAAK for starting. I visited the dealer this weekend and told them about SSM 49730 and to make sure the RFM is updated. I don't think the tech did the update, stating that "no error codes were...
  4. mustang mach-e "alarm system turn off sensors?"

    This definitely should be a setting that "sticks" and I sincerely hope that Ford recognizes the problem and corrects it. What I'm experiencing is disabling the interior sensors because I must leave my dog in the car while shopping of dining, locking the car automatically then finding a message...
  5. Envious of all those who have actually received your MME!

    The dealer hasn't received any of the demo vehicles they've had on order for some time. Nothing to look at, nothing to drive. Either I'm getting told a story or they honestly don't know because they told me they have no way of knowing where or when our deliveries will arrive.
  6. Envious of all those who have actually received your MME!

    So, I'm now well into my 13th month since I made the reservation for the car of my dreams and looking forward to the day it actually arrives. However if the algorithm for calculating the delivery date is accurate, that day could be well into the future. On both tracker sites available to me...
  7. First Mach-E dyno test results: 375 hp / 409 ft-lbs torque

    Where do they measure the torque and rpm? These numbers are definitely not wheel speed which would be used in the wheel hp calc. If it is motor output, there are two, how do you get the values from those? Needs some explanation.
  8. Has there been a solution to the hitch/bike rack conundrum?

    EcoHitch is not an option as they do not have a hitch available for the MME. Here is their response after I sent a Nov. 2020 request for a hitch solution: Thanks for reaching out and for allowing me the opportunity to add some value. I wasn't able to find a fitment for your vehicle. I...
  9. Has there been a solution to the hitch/bike rack conundrum?

    Thank you for the links. Lots of discussion and good intent but no definite solutions or timing estimates for a functional hitch.
  10. Has there been a solution to the hitch/bike rack conundrum?

    As the day to the delivery of my "dream car" get closer, the stress around the issue of taking a bike with me on the ride gets greater. I love to cycle and probably put more miles on the bike than I did on my car last year. I can't ride out of my home so every ride means loading the bike on the...
  11. Ford sends mass Mach-E delivery delay emails [Updated with Ford's response]

    The "Order Status" page is not loading on my Ford.com site. Since the week of 1/18 was listed as my build week, this makes me a bit nervous!
  12. Mach-E at the Car Wash - Best Practices

    You may not need or want to go through the expense of a detailer installed ceramic coating to get a protection that looks and performs just as well. I've been researching the current state of the art paint protection products available over the counter for customer application and all reviews I...
  13. installing 240V Plug

    I had a 14-50 outlet installed a month ago and total cost to install was under $250. It was inexpensive because the distribution box is in the garage and the outlet was mounted within 6 ft of the box. I used 6 gauge copper, capable to supply a 60 Amp Level 2 charging system but fused the circuit...
  14. Purchase Commitment

    It looks like Ford has discontinued the unique Mach E hotline option #3. The call is now diverted to questions regarding the Bronco and that number is swamped such that the only option now is to leave your number and someone will call you back. That someone hasn't called so how do we now get...
