  1. NACS Adapter Shipment For Canada - Official Unofficial Update

    Reached out to Ford Canada today to ask where they are with adapter shipments, given I was updated to "September" and we are half way through with no word yet. Here's the answer (emphasis mine): "Our latest information is that we will receive our first shipment of Adapters here in Canada in...
  2. Are The Brembos On The Premium Actually Red Under The Gray Paint?

    Saw this on the weekend on a parked Premium 4X - seems like Ford just paints over the classic Brembo red? Has anyone seen the gray paint peeling off the callipers like this?
  3. Stolen Ford Bronco Tried To Drive OVER Cops

    Wild scene in Mississauga, Ontario yesterday as a stolen Ford Bronco *really* wanted to escape... https://www.cp24.com/news/terrifying-suspect-tries-to-drive-over-cruiser-to-escape-after-police-surround-stolen-bronco-at-mississauga-drive-thru-1.7024794
  4. Munro Comparison: Borg-Warner Motor vs. New In-House Unit

    Haven't seen anyone mention this vid yet, apologies if it's somewhere. I looked (ish). Hints at possible 800v architecture to come???
  5. Audi Q4 e-tron AC Compressor Failures Destroying HVBs?

    A friend of mine has had a Q4 e-tron since mid-2022, and has so far been "OK" with it - doesn't love it, doesn't hate it. Until April. He texted me a picture of it on a flatbed being towed from his house to the dealership. Wouldn't start. Dealership told him this was the *eigth* (!!) e-tron to...
  6. NACS Adapter Worm Hole

    I'm fully expecting Marty McFly to hand deliver this to me now...anything less will be disappointing :cool: Anyone in Canada get one yet?
  7. Poll: Do You Have The Charge Assist / Public Charging SYNC App?

    Based on the "Does Charge Assist Exist" thread I thought a simple poll to aggregate responses would be interesting. I for one thought the vast majority of us had it already. Seems not. So, do you see the Charge Assist / Public Charging SYNC App yet?
  8. It's the Preconditioning, Stupid!

    So...given my US friends are knee deep in 2024 election-ness, I thought I'd borrow one of my favourite political spinmaster quotes. Long story short - I have never seen, in a year and a half of owning my Mach-E, more than about 80-ish kW at a DCFC. I just came back from a road trip to Montreal...
  9. WARNING! This may be a trigger for some of you....

    The new Honda Prologue (rebadged GM Blazer) IPC with the speedo in the....center:
  10. The Tesla Hard Sell?

    I appreciate a sample size of 1 (me) is to be taken with a grain of salt, but I was at the Toronto Auto Show yesterday and wandered over to look at the Cybertruck. Took a few pics, then sat in the new "Highland" M3 with a friend of mine who has been on the fence for a while. So Johnny Salesguys...
  11. Did Something Kinda Stupid Today…

    I use PaaK exclusively and today I inadvertently let my phone die while I was out. In fact, it died as I walked up to the car - I launched FordPass and….dead. Thankfully I was with a friend of mine who had not left the parking lot yet so let me sit in his M3 to charge the phone. Because a dead...
  12. Will You Buy The Next Gen Mach-E When It Comes Out?

    As we roll into the fourth model year for the Mach-E, I'm curious how many of us will be interested in the next gen Mach-E when it debuts in 2025 2026 "soon". @Ford Motor Company you're welcome for the free market research :cool:
  13. Speedo No Longer Shows 0 kph After 6.8.0?

    In PARK, in my driveway, apparently still moving... :cool: Anyone else seeing similar after 6.8? I only noticed it today - stopped at lights etc - speedo never goes back to 0.
  14. London Ambulance Service - Emergency Response Mach-E

    Haven't seen this posted yet - Ford Europe put this up a few weeks ago. First time I've seen a video featuring the Mach-E as a first responders vehicle. All I've seen so far are news articles. Custom SYNC module integration is pretty cool!
  15. Made In Canada! Jule DCFC Charging Stations at Longo's

    Just ran across a band new DCFC charging option I've never seen at our local Longo's grocery store in Oakville. Seems like they have just gone online recently and are in "soft-launch" mode with reducing pricing for now. Super impressed with what I saw: - Seven CCS bays, one CHAdeMO - Three...
  16. Fun At The Ford Dealership (Seriously)

    Got the recall notice for 23B50 in the mail recently and since I was doing errands near the dealership I decided I'd pop in a make an appointment. Must have been a bit slow as the service advisor asked if I wanted to stick around and get it done now, so of course I said yes. Called the EV Tech...
  17. Defective ChargePoint Home Flex - PSA

    *** UPDATE ***** After @Mach-Lee ran my VIN through FDRS it seems more likely that this is an issue with the on-board charger, and not an issue with the ChargePoint unit. ***************** In case anyone with a Home Flex encounters the same behaviours: Plugged the car in Friday night and...
  18. Toronto to Montreal And Back - Barely Survived the Ivy Network

    This is my third trip in the Mach-E from Toronto to Montreal since June. It seems like in less than six months the Ivy network, featured at almost all ONroute rest stops along the 401, has gone from rock-solid reliability to an Electrify America-style crapshoot. In June my charging experience...
  19. IVY's Per-kWh Pricing Pilot Program Starting Nov. 1st

    Just announced this morning for ONRoute chargers. I'm headed to Montreal for the week-end so I'll have a good idea whether or not this is cheaper than the old per hour pricing as I did the same trip two weeks ago. Price is $0.62 per kWh which is way more expensive than the old pricing. Here's...
  20. Making the most of "Scheduled Maintenance"

    For those of you familiar with the every 10,000 mile / 16,000 km scheduled maintenance, you'll know it includes (b'cause you read the manual) a tire rotation. I live in a winter climate, and so when I took delivery of the car in November I had the dealership fit the winter tires for me. As it...
