Hello. I had a 23 Mach-E, and I have a 24 lightning. Both of them had a distance indicator to the car in front of you on the display above the steering wheel. I found it useful to help me regulate keeping a reasonable distance to the car in front of me. However, it does not appear to exist on...

I had a 2023 GTPE which I loved, until a corrosion issue ultimately resulted in Ford’s buyback. So for several months straight, I was driving my F150 lightning. They may as well call that car a Cadillac because the drive is as smooth as butter and it is dead silent. I am now driving a 2023...

Hi. I have another post here about how my 2023GTPE began to exhibit paint issues on the doors due to underlying corrosion. This should have been manageable, even though all four doors had to be replaced however, Ford rejected the use of the collision body shops recommended by the dealer, and...

For a lot of years, the idea of waxing a car was great, except it didn’t seem the last much longer than a few washes. Then came the very expensive ceramic coating, which at best lasts a year in most cases. I discovered through a trusted local detailer that there were other options...

When getting my car washed, we discovered small vein-like protrusions from the paint under with a windows. Sadly, the Ford dealer (and the body shop) have confirmed the aluminum doors are corroding. It will only get worse and the solution is to replace all 4 doors. Anyone else heard of this?

Hi. I need to remove the side panel in the trunk of my ‘23 grow. I need to do this so that I can hit the reset button on the aftermarket dsp. Are there any good videos that show the tools or process?

Hi, I am looking to help a relative who is considering there first EV. I am hoping to point them to one or more EV friendly and knowledgeable Ford dealers near Orange and Rockland counties in NY. Thanks!

Earlier on this forum, I asked vendors about a “keep the adapter cool” solution, like a mini umbrella. No takers. I started searching, and as a photographer hobbyist, I bought an adjustable hot-shoe flash reflector. See this: https://a.co/d/fuLGUih It serves its purpose of keeping the adapter...

When I bought my GTPE, it was in part because I really did not like the ride of the regular suspension Mache. We are traveling and rented a ‘24 Mache from AVIS. The ride is really really good and no pogo ride except some weird cement sections of highway here in southern Cali. The B&O system...

Hi. There has been a lot of discussion recently about charging times slowing down during the summer because our Tesla adapters or the charging handle gets too hot. It clearly affects people in the warmer part of the states. I was wondering if any of you guys would be interested in making what...

Seattle Area to the Canadian border town of Sumas and back. -All and all, really good, although I hoped the perfect weather would offset the need to drive 70-80 (it didn’t and I ended up with about 220 miles of range on my 23.5 GTPE even though it said 265 when I left the house) - I stopped at...

I am thinking about adding one. Anyone else have one? If so, thoughts on owning a mache and lightning? Anything to consider before deciding?

I posted in another thread how over the last few weeks my charging rate has been erratic. I have a Wallbox pulsar plus. I purchased the plug-in version that I run at no higher than 32amps. It is on a dedicated 50amp circuit. I have been trying to work with Wallbox over the last two weeks to...

Asking for thoughts on these two cars. Looking for a lower cost but very safe vehicle for the kids to drive. Need light towing ability Must be safe Prefer Carplay (really) No Tesla AWD

Hi. Lately I’ve noticed that my car periodically charges slowly, for example, between 1.5 and 2.5 kW per hour. That said, this is the first summer since I purchased my car and the heat has been fairly intense here in the northwest with the temperature ranging between 90 and 100°. I am wondering...

I am still trying to work around how the latest ACM update changed my audio system sound. Using FORScan, I saved a copy of the settings. I want to compare that to the Pre-ACM-Update version. Any ideas on how to do that automatically (almost like Microsoft work doc compare)?

Kicking off this thread in the hopes of getting more visibility into the ACM and issues/solutions.

Has anyone done this round-trip? If so, how was the charging experience?

For some reason today, I plugged in my MachE to my Wallbox Plus, which I have been using for more than a month. Normally, at 32Amp, my charge rate is around 7kw. Today, as shown in the pics, it is down to about 2kw. Any ideas? Is there some sort of safety mechanism or battery conditioning...
