I have a GT without Blue Cruise that I pickled up in January (built in October). I haven’t seen any updates to the car at all. Anyone getting any updates to their GTs?
There’s a 120 mph limiter and I find that even when it’s warm out, I get the bars when I’m in the 85+ mph range. I’ve never gone close to the limiter speed but I assume the power is cut as you approach the max speed so you don’t go over and risk speeds faster than what the tires and brakes can...
You said you had the AC on right? We know cold weather decreases range on an EV. EVs are the opposite of ICEs. So by having the AC on you were cooling the truck which INCREASES range. It’s simple math.
If you’re running out of gas blast the AC and you get at least another 50 miles of range.
But why no pic of the result with the caps on the car? It’s confusing because in the third pic they are on the car and it makes it seem like that’s the end result when it’s the same as just removing the covers.
OP where’s the final pic so we can all admire your work??
I’m thinking it’s the cost of putting in fast chargers which is still a pretty big expense, especially for a privately owned station. Their amenities are also set up for a quick stop (grab a packaged snack or a coffee) and again it’s the capital expense for longer stays. Also keep in mind that...
The event was today and it was a lot of fun. There was a GTPE and Premium at one part of the event otherwise some really great classic and modern Mustangs. Everyone was very nice and only one or two snide remarks but all in good fun. Here are some pics from the event.
You have to think of the GT like you are buying an ICE sports car. You don’t really think about range or gas mileage when you buy a sports car as much. Now the MME is different because it’s comfortable and has tons of space and the range is still pretty good but if it’s not enough for your daily...
I don’t think battery tech is there yet for there to be a forever car. I think the next 3 to 5 years will see a ton of advancements that will make our current cars look like the first bulky Motorola cell phones. Think about all the advancements in just the last three years.
It’s going to get worse before it gets better. Even though a lot of people can charge at home so you don’t expect local traffic at charge stations, more and more you will have people who live in apartments who have no other option but to charge at charge stations. And the fact that most cars...
I'm curious if anyone has been to an event like this and if they got a lot of "not a real Mustang" aggression from the attendees? I am planning to attend this but I'm genuinely concerned that I will get a ton of hate from the Mustang "purists"...
Electric cars have turned performance into a commodity. Pretty soon you are going to have mini vans performing better than the hypercars of just a few years ago. When that happens, (some would argue is already has) then its less about 0-60 and quarter mile time and more about handling, weight...
Not to get in the middle of this but OP never asked for anyone’s opinion. He was showing everyone what he did. Not saying anything was also an option…
