Hoping some of our more technical friends here can help an only guy out. What I’m trying to decipher is which CarScanner data points I should be looking at to tell if a DCFC station is slow because of my car, or because of the station. A few days ago I needed to drive 300 miles in the cold...

So I’ve been out living my best life and things have been going great. Earlier this week I received 25.14.22. Tonight I’m trying to get to a different work site for work tomorrow. Pull in to an EA fast charger that I use often enough. I use ford nav to precondition. I arrive at 5% charge...

I’ve been wanting to do more lighting in the car. I tried one back when I went green but couldn’t get it sync so returned it. When I went purple the one I wanted wasn’t available. My wife got me one for my birthday last month but between vacations, spring yard work, and OT at work, I hadn’t...

Big pet peeve for me here. I just can’t believe after 4+ years, nobody at FordPass has been able to code a very basic algebra equation into their software. Plugged in this morning when I got home from work. Battery is at 78%. I have to drive a few hundred miles this afternoon so I tell the...

My car and app have been updating. Now when I “remote start,” FordPass shows me a slider to set the cabin temperature. But I’ve noticed that when I get to the car, 3 times now, when I get to the car, the steering wheel heat is still off. For 4 years now remote start, in cold temps, has...

Documenting this just for the info of others. Not that it needs much more documentation. But I’m keeping the saga alive. I was at the dealer yesterday getting my new hood latch actuator. I had that failure just last month and the dealer was able to follow Mach-Lee’s advice Here to get it...

Lime Green was polarizing. Let’s hear what everyone thinks of my new look. KPMF Hypnotic Purple wrap (with black color shifting) by Upward Graphics of Fulton, NY. Custom 3M Liquid Copper accents and graphics designed, cut, and applied at home by me (though admittedly inspired by @dixiekidd88...

I had an ooops a few weeks ago. Backed into my friend’s mailbox trying to back out of his driveway onto a fairly busy street. It was in the blind spot of both the backup sensors and the mirrors. I was getting cross traffic alerts so even if it did beep I may have assumed it was seeing traffic...

Because there aren’t enough positive threads around here…. Because I don’t care about my resale price on a depreciating asset…. Because no car I’ve ever owned had the speedometer in the center of the dash…. Because I understand the cold temperatures make chemical reactions less effiicient…. And...

As we begin 2024 and quickly approach 3 years since I bought two MME’s (then sold one to buy my GTPE) I wanted to take a moment to thank the folks here for the education, the laughs, the chance to vent, and sharing of joy as we’ve all learned the ups and downs of MME ownership. I hope I’ve...

My wife’s car got a new driver monitor camera today. When I went to pick up the car I was told that they found the DTC’s for HVBJB replacement and were ordering a new one to get it replaced. That car has never had a Powertrain malfunction, stop safely now, or service vehicle soon message. But...

For my Birthday my wife paid for me to get a digital cartoon drawing done of my car. I washed it up and sent them some photos. The initial background wasn’t to my liking so they redid it and I think it’s perfect. I’m waiting on the print that I got made. I’m also getting the Vector Source...

So I’ve been rather quiet around here lately. It’s cold and snowy and haven’t been doing much of anything with the cars. But I thought I might update on an issue with the wife’s car, as well as vent a little. The charge port on the wife’s 2021 Premium AWD ER started going bad back around...

While I’ve been driving my rental Nero for a couple days, wife’s been in a loaner ‘23 MME Premium AWD ER. I took it to dinner tonight and noticed that the auto-dimming headlights now fade up and down between regular and high beam. This is something I had noted when I had the loaner F-150...

I know there is a lot of hate for Amazon/Alexa on here. But I use it. Happily most of the time. My question is, to the others that do use Alexa from the Mach-E, is yours intermittent? Does it work more than 50% of the time? About 50% of the time Alexa in my Mach-E does exactly what I ask. The...

I haven’t been too active here lately. Haven’t made any more modifications to show off and haven’t had any problems so nothing to contribute to the hive mind. But I just got a call from my son. He says my vehicle has a couple dash lights and told him to “Service Vehicle Soon.” I can only...

My REVIEW . Feel free to ask questions. I know it’s not the most secure thing in the world. Nothing that’s not bolted to the frame will be. But it’s the best car safe I’ve found yet. Good for temporary out of sight storage of your valuables. Edit: Installation Video. Because the safe didn’t...

Wasn’t really happy with the way this sat on the car. Went with Craig’s Custom Bracket. That means I have a Sto-N-Sho I don’t need no mo. I even put new VHB tape on it for you $50 and free shipping. DM me.

For Sale: Complete set of Ford official seat cover's Bought the Ford MME front and rear seat covers last year. $350 for the set. Upgraded to the Wet Okole covers this year so we no longer have need for these. Full disclosure, my wife allows the children and the poodle into the car. The...

Hey folks, So this isn’t particular to the Mach-E, but I’m hoping you can all help. I picked up a rental Dodge Ram this morning. It was only at half a tank but when I got it home the dash range said 215 miles. Well, I had a long night at work last night so before hitting the road I went in and...
