Anyone else experience this? I had just been Level 2 charging. Depressed the button on the handle, unplugged, got into car, foot on brake, turned on, had blue bar on IPC (like it was still charging) drove for 10 miles with no speedometer, just the blue bar. Stopped the car, performed a “key...

Welp, it just happened, although I had run all the available FDRS updates months ago, and had the best of both worlds, enhanced BC and the centered speedometer when I disengaged lane-centering and adaptive cruise, and I had a few OTAs after that, and kept my centered speedo. Got a notification...

Bay Area to Burbank to Santa Barbara to Burbank back to Bay Area. NACS charging was great, except when P & C didn’t work in Kettleman City, but it didn’t work on EA there either, so had to use a credit card. Public charging in LA is crazy expensive. Used mostly NACS. Charging on the way down...

Still loving my Shadow Black 21 GTPE (even if it’s performance potential was neutered by Ford). I was starting to look at that 24 GT in Eruption Green with the Bronze Appearance Package and salivating about it, and the lady said “nah”. Wiser minds than mine are taking the day, month, year and...

Okay, I don’t take road trips. Car is almost entirely used as a commuter/daily driver. Longest trip in my GTPE was from the Bay Area to LA and back. That was about 11 months ago. Today I wanted to test it out with a longer trip. So I want from Marin to Rockin, CA and back this afternoon...

I have never seen this before, Ford Pass fails to respond to anything, has been for 15 minutes, might the servers be down?

Short answer: no, I don’t think I would. I have what might be described as an unhealthy obsession with the MME. There isn’t a day that goes by when I don’t spend more than a half hour thinking about the car. My MME story basically could be summed up like this: I saw the car as an...

Self explanatory.

Do you believe Darren Palmer was actually speaking the truth when being interviewed by Tom Moloughney?

First off, to say that I’m obsessed with the MME is an understatement. I think I’ve mentioned it a few times on this forum. I first test drove a Cal Rt One back in late May of 21. Had been eyeing the car as soon as I was aware of it, but that test drive sealed the deal for me. Bought a...

I really think Ford needs to get better at software. My car basically factory reset last night, with no known reason: drive mode reset, all radio presets cleared out, memory seats lost position, memory buttons reset, MyKey cleared out, follow distance cleared, one pedal drive setting cleared...

Welp, I have had two HVJB failures, in two different MMEs. Now, I have a motor inverter that has it’s temperature variance out of wack. This is the first I have heard of this. Car is drivable, but Jesus.

Okay, we all know EVs eat tires. The GTPE in particular. However, I’m just having the worst luck with the tires on my GTPE. In less than 8 k miles, I got a slice in my sidewall on the way to work. First tire shop couldn’t diagnose the leak by dunking the tire, re-inflated it and sent me in...

Hey all, I know we have all had issues and some of us disappointments with the MME. But, and I don’t know if I am feeling generous right now, but Ford actually did a really bang up job overall with it’s first non-compliance EV. I look forward to drive it, I find excuses to get behind the...

So, in general, my GTPE is a commuter car. I’ve been very precious with my car. This was a different experience. Part of my trip involved a kinda nasty dirt road (which I’ve never done in an MME) for about 10 miles. Rutted, with some washouts. Despite the 5 inch ground clearance, the car...

I don’t know how many folks hammer the accelerator here, but I have noticed that slamming the pedal to the floor from either a stand still or at speed seems to get worse acceleration response than rolling on pressure. Anyone else notice this?

We all know the top end issues with power and the MME, but it is quite quick in acceleration up to about 70. How long after ownership did you rack your first ticket?

Hi! Okay, 3 weeks after having my HVJB replaced (completely unrelated), I go out to the car to go to work (110 mile round trip). Car has less than 8k miles on it. Tire pressure monitor system shows front driver tire at 22 PSI. That’s not good…so I drive up one exit, inflate tire at local gas...

Long story short, I can see why people like it, but it feels a bit like a toy. More details later.

I have felt the 5 second full power limitation, and if you are aware of it, you can drive around it, kind of. But today, since I have a fresh new upgraded HVJB, I was passing a car on a two lane road, was immediately behind another car that was going below the speed limit (55), so I punched...
