I just got a 3D printer (Bambu Lab A1) and I finally made the MagSafe (Qi2) charger I’ve always wanted for the car.
No visible cords or pucks! The best part is, it charges faster and consistently. Links to the models below.
It took a bunch of test prints to get the shape, pattern, and cord...
Does anyone have a 3D scan or model of the changing tray area? Not the rubber mat that goes in there, but the area it sits in.
I want to make my own Qi2/MagSafe charging mat to go in there, but I need the sizing for everything.
Thank you in advance!
I had a rock hit my roof glass a few weeks ago resulting in a small crack. I went to a friend who works at Safelite to try and have it filled it, but unfortunately it spread, so now a replacement roof is being ordered (covered by insurance).
My friend is going to do the work thankfully. He said...
Silent, clean, and calm, most EVs are lovely to drive. They’re easier on the environment and are less likely to increase your stress levels than traditional cars, too. But if you’re the sort of driver who’s looking to get your adrenaline pumping without burning any gasoline, you haven’t had many...
I’ll be up front, this is a workaround, but it does work and it plays by the rules.

- FordPass Skill for Echo
- Virtual Buttons Skill for Echo
How To:
Enable and setup the FordPass Skill in the Alexa app. It will ask you to setup a PIN for...

Who here is running the Betas, and how is FordPass and PAAK doing?
I haven’t run iOS betas since I got my MME 3 years ago because I rely on PAAK, but iOS 18 has me curious.
Here’s a new one. I got in my car yesterday after having just driving it 20 minutes before and there were loud popping sounds coming from the right rear speaker. It almost sounded like base thumps, but short and sharp.
I turned the volume all the way down to not damage the speaker and that...

Has one had FordPass sign out on its own recently? It happened to me yesterday and my husband today. I just had to sign in again and everything was fine, but it was still odd.
Last weekend I posted a few "What did you buy?" polls covering Trim, Color, and Battery & Drive. I also posted the same polls on the Mustang Mach-E Owners Facebook group. Here are the aggregated results if anyone is interested.
I figured we haven’t done a “What did everyone buy?” poll in a while. Let’s start with trim. Let me know if I forgot one. I also posted this on one of the FB groups, I’ll be curious if the numbers are different on here.
From a member of the Mustang Mach-E Owners FB group.
Sounds like they are finally telling people about preconditioning on the way to a DC fast charger.
Also power steering updates.
2 years in and I’m still discovering new things about this car. This weeks discovery, the “Medium” cabin temp setting in the departure times section, despite being orange colored which to me indicates heat, is actually more like setting the climate to 70°F. In the winter it will heat and in the...
With iOS 17 this year, Apple is further expanding on its set of features in Apple Maps for electric car owners. Starting this year, Apple Maps will show real-time charging availability information and let drivers choose a preferred charging network...
Had an odd one today. It was 70° and sunny outside and my car was parked in the driveway so I remote started it to cool I down.
When I got in the car was hot and the car was blowing hot air. I turned the car on and the seat heater and the heated wheel was on. I noticed the outside temp read...
