Pretty sure plenty of us own their Mach E’s so yes?

If it sat for years not driven though….12v is my first thought also. Hell my 23 couldn’t even make it off the lot without a new battery because they let it sit.

Probably have to put some type of clear plastic shield that would block touches from being activated.

They didn’t so…

I’ve been in a pretty bad below zero drive with a large head wind in my ICE before going to my in laws well my cars range (one again ICE) kept dropping more and more. At one point I had to look at my wife and ask…there is a gas station between here and your parents right? Cause if not…. ICE...

It’s amazing, it sucks. At least we got the whole spectrum of opinions.

Aren’t majority of BMW’s leased anyway? Do people even have to buy these subscriptions when they are trading in every couple years?

It would be at least somewhat new. When they still had the public charging app like a year ago you could easily route to Teslas via that but I couldn’t find them in search and when you navigated to them you didn’t get the charging icon.

An actual sorta “real world” scenario. Go back and reread The Lost World (1995) and they had specially made field research vehicles made, all electric, complete with solar panels arrays that could be used to recharge them. It made sense, they were taking vehicles to a remote island with no...

I do. Especially compared to what a lot of people around here post. Then they usually talk about how they drive 85+ and I chalk most of it to that. Being lighter on pedal and staying at the speed limit deff helps your numbers. Only going downhill is obviously great also; but that works...

My 12v was dead in the car before I could even pick it up from sitting on the lot. Does sound a lot like a bad 12v.

You can add it as a location and then limit the charge like you do at home. But pretty sure you won’t be able to do that until you’re back at the airport. Not going to hurt anything sitting at 100% for a couple days anyway…also depending on how low it was when you plugged it in it takes about...

Not according to the admins. Money > everything else. But I’m sure this comment is “political”.

2023 Premium Extended Range. It’s manufactured in July I believe so a 23.5, I got it May 24. But by then all the 23 and the one 24 on the lot all had either a 90 day trial or a 3 year BlueCruise charge on the sticker…at $700 a year ($2100). Which given that is almost what they are charging...

The same trip everyday? Find one charger a long the route with a good PlugShare score and there you go. Charge in the 10-80% range and you don’t need to do a full charge, just a couple minutes to have enough to get home. If you need to charge at all. I do 250+ mile runs from 100% all the...

Tesla sure, preconditioning not nearly as big of a deal. Granted I think the native nav also sucks but that’s a different argument. Never going to pay for it just for the ability to precondition. And obviously you can route to Tesla with pretty much any other GPS app you would want already.

Most the time period people “road trip” preconditioning isn’t really needed. Especially not as important as people around here make it out to be.

Never had an issue with my tri yellow mustang, but it was garage kept.

My 2023 sticker was like $2k for 3 years of BC so you are lucky.

Calibrated ABRP with the dongle has always been accurate within a few percent. Apple Maps is always 15-20% off at the start of a trip and then works itself out over a few hours. But now that I’ve driven up and down the country a couple times I pretty much know where/when I’ll charge anyway...
