Just returned from vacation. Took our 22 to Niagra Falls and back.
Interesting notes,
Navigation-
Started out using ABRP but after a few charge stops and fiddling with settings settled on Google maps. Never used the Ford internal Navigation.
Google maps has a buried setting we finally...
39k miles on our 21 Select RWD and got the turtle today. Reduced go juice and AWD malfunction notification in Ford pass.
So since we ran it down to 21% and this only happened on restart I now have it charging and will hope it just goes away tomorrow morning..
Looks like ICE Mustangs have some cool downloads.

Of course we will see nothing even close as it would require removing the useless little car from the center of the cluster.
Well, pulled in behind the wifes car the other day and observed the rear panel dangling out of sorts under the car. It appears that a stick or something lodged in the right side of the panel, puncturing it and pulled it down, and then possibly in heavy rain it shipped a bunch of water. All...
So spent the morning with my test light and figured out things.
I installed mine so the flat is inside the hatch since it will rarely be used at best.
Install required taking out the center sill and both lower side panels.
I mounted the unit behind the passenger side panel as there is plenty...
So travelling from East Tennessee to Florida today. Coming down 26 and only 2 of the 4 EA chargers in Columbia are working and those are derated to under 50kw. There is a que to use them.
Well I can make it to Orangeburg Nissan but plugshare shows it to have been broken for 3 days.
So drove...
I thought this was nice, a positive with the FordPass vehicle locating.
Alas, She was parked in Scar, so just take a photo of the sign and row, don't trust the Fordpass.
Of note during this trip EA has been giving away free charging
Well, drove to Virginia last week and came back yesterday. Started at 6am in Florence, SC with the only requirement to get to Daytona Beach before 5pm to get the puppies from the boarder.
Got up early at 6am, left the wife and...
NASCAR Foundation has periodic lap days. 2 laps for charity. We participated on Monday the 18th.
Got lucky and was able to get on the track before it was shut down due to lightening.
Pace car set the pace at 55mph and the banked turns were off limits, blocked by cones and trucks. The bank...

I am taking ours for a spin. Sure you only going 55 but the track is impressive if you have never been.
So this past week we finished our first real vacation in 4+ years.
The drive round trip-
Daytona Beach- Washington DC -Portland Maine- Mount Washington-Blue Ridge Parkway- Daytona Beach
Most of this trip could be classified under enforced moderation. Thanks to a limited range SR batter and...
Took the trip today. 90+ miles from the Maine coast to the Auto road, to the top and back.
21P22 was applied when our '21 Select RWD went in for the windshield recall.
It was very cloudy at the top.
Started the 7.6 mile climb at 62% and was at 45% at the summit. Distance climbed 6200ft...
Post here to part company with old rims here in Florida.
I personally am looking for a spare 18" rim and tire for my Select. Taking a long trip in June and want a full size spare just because. Post up here if you have anything to offer.
Depending on how things go I may just buy 4 new...
Anyone install and run these?
I am thinking of getting a set and am curious if folks like them overall.
Do they help with wind noise at 75 mph with the windows cracked open?
Do they add wind noise/whistle?
Anyone have any photos of them installed?
$38 a month if you have them install.
Not shabby.
Edited to add the rates. Free nights and weekends
Edited to add article.
Here is an article on the program. Looks like the author just went from information on the web page and has no real new information.

Ok, so Doc Brown states the Delorean can do 0-88 in 17 seconds.
My guess is a MachE GT would do it in 8 seconds, halving the time and the run up distance Marty has to drive.
Happy New Year..
Or would a Cyber Truck with its stainless body be the only real other option?
Ok, this is a petty rant but here goes.
So after 9500 miles we are low on washer fluid.
Ok, I get it,. But why the random big brown dashboard banner. Just ran low this week and have been busy with the Holiday and so forth and have yet to pour some water in.
Merging onto the highway...
Interesting interview.
A lot of interesting things about model 3 battery packs and manufacturing in general in this interview. Around the 15 minute mark.
