This has probably been posted in the "Norway" thread, but I figured it was worth posting on its own. Mach E sales are still going strong in Norway, and more importantly ICE cars are not.

After an exhausting day of yard work I checked the mail, and lo and behold my center caps finally arrived. Scarlett needs a bath but I really love how the covers look, so here she is dirty and all. Oddly enough I wanted to post a link to the amazon page, but for some reason the seller and/or...
I am looking for anyone with experience getting their Mach E's serviced in a reasonable distance from the Marlton/Cherry Hill area. I bought my car from Medford Ford because I've had good experience buying from them in the past, but I didn't realize they weren't EV maintenance certified. I want...
Question for those that might know - after taking my Rt1's aero covers off, do I need to get my wheels rebalanced? I have no idea if the wheels are typically balanced with the covers on or off?
Both @usmcsatcom and I got billed for our "free" charging sessions today, AND our remaining "free" charging got reduced too. Anyone else having this issue?
Fortunately I only did a quick session during a bio break, but if this happened during a long trip it would be annoying. Receipt from Fordpass:
I was playing with Android Auto tonight, and thought I found a loophole when I saw that VLC was available as an AA app. For those that don't know, VLC is a powerful third party media player available on tons of platforms. I copied an .mp4 to my phone, installed VLC, and checked that it could...
I was with my daughter buying a new Escape at Miller Ford in Lumberton, and they had 4 Mach E's on the lot. 1 was a CA RT1 that is their demo model, but the other 3 were apparently orders that backed out. Forgot to ask if they are adding ADM, sorry
*** EDIT: Asked today, and no ADM
Now that I've got my car and a new roof on my house, I need to buy solar panels. There seems to be plenty of sleazy companies out there, so I'm wondering if any of the bigger players are reliable or if a smaller company would be better- I have no idea how much aftersales support is necessary. I...
We've had really crappy weather since I got my Rapid Red Route 1 in mid February, so I haven't generally gone places where there are a lot of people. I have driven to work, gone for takeout, and generally driven "to nowhere" just for the fun of it but mostly at night. Up until today I haven't...
I was off yesterday and apparently she arrived at the dealership overnight Sunday and into Monday - so I SHOULD have been able to take her home yesterday and give her a full workout. Unfortunately the dealers' software wasn't able to print the contracts properly for options yesterday, so I had...
For those of you with your cars, are these the correct steps to enable and then use the Lane-centering while driving?
First you have to enable adaptive cruise control and automatic lane centering in the settings
get up to speed on a road with clear lane markings, centering the car in your lane...
Tonight I read an article on insideevs about how Ford descoped the range on the Route 1 (which I have on order), and mentioned it to the wife and daughter.
The vacant glassy eyed stare I got back leads me to believe I might need to talk less about the car.
From inside EVs, apparently Ford scaled back the range from 314 miles to 305. I had a feeling the real numbers with 18" aeros had to be better than a +5 mil advantage.

tl;dr: 219 mi range at sustained 70mph in 50 degree weather

There's some bad math at the end trying to compute the rate of the other models. The ER RWD should be in the...
While 2020 has been a horrible year for many, I'd like to "accentuate the positive" and look forward to a much better 2021 for all. I myself have been lucky as hell that this year has been nothing more than an inconvenience: I still have a steady paycheck, no one in my family has come down with...
Please only make your poll selection when you take possession your car. It might be interesting to see the evolution of where deliveries happen over time
Now that the cars are actually starting to ship, seeing Tom Molougney's plug-and-charge session as well as his follow-on comments in this week's insidevs blog has once again got me thinking about the mysterious FordPass charging network and the procedure for actually using one's account for...
**** UPDATE April 15 2021 ***
Apparently Ford is stepping up their game!

Apparently it is indeed true that if you ordered before 12/15, took possession of the...
