I've seen a lot of people add "0.0" emblems to their Mach-E's. But has anyone added a "Turbo" emblem? I think that would be funny.

Something happened about a month ago and my range/efficiency has dropped severely. I've never watched the miles/kwh too closely before, but believe it's normally 2.5 - 3.0. This is my 2nd winter so I know the range drops when it's cold. However I'm seeing 0.9-1.7 miles/kwh. This past Monday...

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but when driving south towards Janesville, WI on the interstate (I-39/90), bluecruise always drops out at mile marker 165.6, and comes back at 166.0. I drive it often enough that I know exactly where, about 2 miles south of Edgerton (Lake Koshkonong...

Kia (& Hyundai) is providing free NACS adapters only to those purchased after Sept 4, 2024. Charging (pun?) $225 for others. Glad Ford provided for all. Thanks Ford. https://electrek.co/2024/09/24/kia-shares-timeline-rolling-out-free-nacs-adapters-to-new-ev6-ev9-owners/

I just got my Pulsar Plus charger last week (thanks Fisker). I had been using the FMC for the last year and a half. I immediately noticed how much thicker the PP cable is. I had noticed the FMC cable being warm during charging. I figured the larger PP cable wouldn't be as noticeable, but it...

I saw a few threads and comments about the Ford NACS adapter not having a case. I just received my adapter in late June and figured the box it came in was good enough. However I decided to 3D print a 2 piece insert that fits in the box. Printed out of TPU at 10% infill allows it to still be...

Here's my first attempt at 3D printing a lock for the adapter to prevent someone from just disconnecting the adapter and taking it while charging. It has 2 parts (plus a padlock). The inner sleeve that covers the release button is tapered to match the size/shape of the adapter. It has to be...

Has anyone used the Tesla chargers at Festival Foods in Sheboygan, WI? Tesla webpage says it's compatible, but both the Ford and Tesla apps say that it's not. Has anyone used the Tesla chargers there?

I'm a little annoyed that Wisconsin is telling me I have to put an EV sticker (actually EV Hybrid) on my license plates. It says so first responders can identify it as electric. Plus it says to cover the barn artwork of the plate. Do first responders really need this?

I've been willing to call my Mach-E an SUV for the past year until I got my federal tax credit. Now I'm now calling it a car. It's a little taller than most cars, but I'd say it's a lot shorter than most SUV's. It's funny that some people have raised their Mach-E's, and others have lowered...

While trying to get into my Connected Services to reserve the Tesla charging adapter, it appeared to show other subscriptions loading and I noticed the "360-Degree-Camera" being listed as a subscription service. By the time it fully loaded that tile went away, but I grabbed a screenshot. So...

They finally finished the DCFC stations at the HyVee in Janesville Wisconsin. Prior to these, the nearest DCFC was 30 miles away. At least until we can use the Tesla chargers across the street. 7 of the spots are CCS. Anyone else try these out yet. I haven't seen anyone using these yet.

Watching the ball drop tonight, I'll be thinking "Where's my bluecruise update?" 3...2...1... ?

I'm getting ready to ditch the Pirelli's for all seasons and don't plan to go back. 12k miles, mostly interstate between Madison, WI and Rockford, IL. How much are these worth?

I keep seeing new ev chargers at grocery stores, and all are level 2 chargers. Some are free for 2 or 3 hours max. But who shops that long? And that's really not adding much range. I know level 3 (dcfc) chargers cost a lot more. The level 2 chargers are rarely being used. How about movie...

Seriously, when I bought my mach E in April it sounded like 1.2 was being released soon. Then 1.3 comes along and it's even better. Expected "later this year". Will it be when the ball is dropping in Times Square?

I haven't had a tire puncture in like 10 years. 4 months with my mach E and I just had my 3rd puncture. Unfortunately this one was at the edge of the tread. Anyone else? Am I just unlucky?

I keep seeing reviews, but really why isn't it rolling out yet!

OMG, I swear there's a new article every couple days about someone trying out an EV on a road trip and coming out disappointed. Well, duh! I think every EV owner knows that longer trips require some pre-planning and expected charging stops, and sometimes those aren't smooth. Where are the...
