  1. Best wall charger for 2025?

    I agree with you. I use the Power Pro to charge either of my vehicles. I also own a Charge Point Home Flex station. It is working for 4 years now, although it was derated from 48 amps to 40 amps. Don’t have anything against the Tesla unit. I believe that it works just like the Supercharging...
  2. Best wall charger for 2025?

    You’re not the only one. I own a Lightning Lariat and it came with it. It is the one for power back your home.
  3. Active Grille Shutters

    Take your vehicle to your dealer. The gears are plastic and they brake just like mine did couple years ago. Don’t be surprised if they don’t have the parts, motor or gears to replace it. The dealer can verify what is broken or seized.
  4. Holy moly, is this what Ford service is like?

    Contact Ford and let them know about your dealer’s ineptitude. Ford will call them directly. Your dealer will not be happy about it.
  5. Am I damaging steering if I push against lane centering?

    At your steering wheel there is a button. Depress it once and the indication at the bottom of your instrument panel will go away. If you engage BC though, lane centering needs to be engaged.
  6. Question - how much time is added to your trip when travelling in your EV??

    I travel long distances with my MME Premium, (1200 miles round trip), to Louisiana, and it adds couple hours to my trip. I have the EX battery and at each stop I spend about 25 min to charge. Use the Tesla Superching network, primarily. On the 600 miles leg I have two stops to charge to 80% and...
  7. What Does This Icon Mean? (Orange)

    That is correct. I haven’t seen this yet on my MY21 early Job1.
  8. Chat GPT roast of the MME

    Holly smokes…….I like this poetry!!!!
  9. Found GPS tracker - is this normal?

    This is your dilemma. Now that you have removed it from the vehicle, it is your to keep. If you worry that it had broadcasted its last position of the vehicle and you don’t want to reveal its last position, your home, then take your vehicle some place to broadcast your last known location before...
  10. Tariffs — USA 25% and Canada / Mexico response (100% Tesla tariffs) [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    As I have said on another post/thread here, here come the severe consequences. Strap yourselves down. If can’t afford a vehicle (EV) now it is not going to get affordable from here on. Everything and I mean everything is going to go up in price by 10%. Food, clothing, furniture, fruits and...
  11. Ford Now Offering Free Battery Checks

    That is exactly what will happen. Many dealers will take advantage of their customers. Some batteries will need replacement and some won’t.
  12. I bet no one here knows this: Ford made a car that looks so good as ours, and I found out today

    The Fusion was supposed to survive in Europe under the Mondeo name. Now it looks like a Mach E in China. I hope Ford brings back the Fusion in NA. It was a desirable vehicle with wide appeal. I own one in Hybrid version which I gave to my daughter to use permanently. Now the Fusion customers...
  13. 12v Time to replace?

    I learned my lesson. After 36 months replace it. Almost every parts store has the battery available. Go with an AGM type battery.
  14. Who has the oldest functioning original 12V battery??

    Mine just left my wife stranded while visiting a local state park. The Mach E was built the first week of January 2021 and took delivery on the second week of February 2021. 48 months. Funny how those batteries just give up. I will give my Lightning 36 months and change the battery before I get...
  15. 2021 Select to 2024 GTPE - Night & Day Difference

    Someone from my old town of Framingham. Back then when I attended Framingham State College. I heard that now it is a University. Need to visit Framingham. I still have a good friend in the area. Well……enjoy the “New Ride”. Good luck.!!!
  16. Opening the door with a dead battery

    If that is or was the case, it is long overdue. Now that you mentioned it, FordPass didn’t even generate a message of the LVB failure, other than the vehicle was “active “.
  17. Does your BlueCruise hug the right lane?

    No, you’re not crazy. My Mach E had the 1.4 beta version BC. It does that when trying to pass a big rig or the rig is passing you. It scouts over a bit away from the big rig. Now the beta version is gone, which my Mach E got the 1.3 BC. The latest BC version is extremely conservative. I wished I...
  18. Opening the door with a dead battery

    Folks after almost 4 years of running around happily with my MME, I experienced a LVB failure. My wife managed to drive for 45 min to one of hers hiking trails only to experience the Dead battery issue. The phone rank, her voice a bit concerned that she did something wrong. All was working until...
  19. Can I charge with excess solar only without draining my Powerwall 3?

    Hello Mike. I have a similar setup at my house. I have the Enphase system, battery storage, Grid switch and 28 solar panels with Enphase micro inverters. If I wanted to do what you want to do with the excess power, I put my storage system on the “backup mode “, which locks the batteries to a...
  20. Lessons learned from renting a Mach-e without a home charger

    Excellent choice for the OBDII adaptor. It is my traveling tool for my Mach E and my Lightning. You rented a Mach E to learn more about the EV experience. Unlike others who rented EVs, knowing very little or at best nothing, to return them with the belief to never go near them again in their...
