  1. 2022 vs 2025 Leg room

    We were considering upgrading our 2022 to a 2025 so I went to sit in one and see the differences in the dashboard, etc. Much to my surprise the driver's side leg room was less on the 25 and on our 22. As I'm 6'4" w/34" inseam this was a deal breaker. I mentioned this to our SA whom we had bought...
  2. Trip Report 1200 miles to Lassen National Park and back

    We just got back from a trip on the Central Coast of CA to Lassen Volcanic NP and I’m writing this to assuage peoples’ (valid) concerns about range in charging deserts like Lassen NP. But first a word about Lassen. It’s a spectacular NP with all 4 different types of volcanoes and ranges in...
  3. A2Z adapter: Kudos for their customer support

    I received my @A2ZEV adapter a couple of days ago and was not able to charge at 2 different Tesla SC locations. After the second on Sunday I emailed their customer support and got a reply shortly thereafter that same day. He asked me to try again and facetime him when I got to the SC station. I...
  4. Temp CA HOV sticker placement/use?

    Hi all, We recently got the HOV stickers and have not put them on yet as we don't need to around here on the central coast. We do have a trip planned to SoCAL in June and I'll need the sticker(s) on for part of the trip when I'm driving solo. I'd really rather not permanently apply them though...
  5. 18" vs 19" wheels/tires efficiency on AWD Premium

    If you have a Premium AWD and have switched out your 19" wheels/tires for 18" aero wheels/tires, how has that impacted your efficiency (miles/kwh)? Please post here.

  6. OEM 240v charger warranty: 3 years

    I've been using the OEM charger for a year now and on our 1 year anniversary of getting the MME, it just died and was replaced under warranty which is 3 years and the new charger's warranty is also 3 years. So you might want to consider using it while it's still under warranty to get it...

  9. Hitch for Thule bike rack: Curt or Draw Tite?

    Hi all, I have a Thule "helium" hitch bike rack (pic here) and am trying to decide between the Curt or the Draw-Tite receivers (here). The Curt receiver looks like it might be a little bit longer and stick out farther from the back of the car. The end of the receiver needs to be at least 4.5"...

  12. Efficiency of Premium AWD w/18" vs 19" wheels

    I'm wondering what the increase in efficiency would be on our Premium AWD if we went from the OEM 19" wheels to, say, CR-1 18" wheels. Does anybody have any data on this topic? I'm well aware of the EPA stats that the CR-1 model w/18" wheels, Extended Range and AWD has a listed range of 312...
  13. Service Vehicle soon 2/19 w/battery charged to 89% & blue lights on the charger

    We got the Service Vehicle Soon notice on the dashboard and in the Ford Pass (powertrain malfunction/reduced power). It had charged up to 90% (we think) overnight and was at 89% when we turned it on but preconditioning was happening too at 0800hrs. We've gotten the latest software update that...

    Although we got our MME on 11/5/22 I hadn't tried out the OEM charger until last night as we've got 2 other 240 chargers but I wanted to make sure this Ford OEM charger works OK. I plugged it in last night and this morning the solid yellow light on the charger was on and no charge had been...

  16. Advantage(s) of Blue Cruise over adaptive cruise control with and without lane keeping?

    I've driven our 2022 MME for about a month now and have used both adaptive cruise control (ACC) with and without lane centering. I've also been trying out Blue Cruise when it's available on my driving routes. The ACC functions work well, far superior to the OEM ACC on our Tesla. The lane...
  17. How to charge to 80-90% at home outside of your "locaton" based preferences?

    I have our MME set up to automatically charge up to 90% by 8am but there are times I'd like to come home plug in during the day and have it charge up to 90% and I can't figure out how to do that. Right now I can disable location based charging but then when I plug in it will start charging...
