  1. Premium RWD or CA Rt 1 AWD

    Hey everyone, I’ve got a situation I’m struggling with and I could use some additional thoughts. I put a RWD CA Rt 1 on order in Nov 21. I decided I wanted AWD in January for the faster motor (I live in Southern California, so I don’t need AWD), so I changed my order. This reset my spot in...
  2. Adding Power Lift Gate & Speakers

    Hey Ya’ll, I’ve got sort of a weird situation that is making me consider adding some premium features to a CA Route 1. I’m considering upgrading the base sound system & adding the power lift gate. I’ve seen links to the aftermarket power lift gate. It seems like a very reasonable solution. I’m...
  3. Really hate the dual phone update

    My wife and I both drive our Mach E various times throughout the day. We’ve both got our phones paired, and we both use wireless CarPlay. When I first got the car, I favorited my phone. It is actually my car, and my wife does not mind waiting for her phone to connect each time she gets in. My...
  4. Waiting for ‘23 orders to open- response from dealer

    It’s not a great reply. They seem unwilling to commit to anything. I don’t blame them though. I don’t think they are making much margin on these orders, so they aren’t really incentivized to take a risk on any promises. You’re also asking all the right questions to make sure they get the least...
  5. Color change before entering production

    Has anyone tried changing the color of their Mach E after they got a build date, but before it entered production? I don’t think this is allowed, but I’m considering trying it. Has anyone had success with this?
  6. ⏰ Mach-E Scheduling Next Week (7/18) For Build Weeks 9/5 Through 9/26

    Ordered Nov 28 - Ca Route 1, RWD, Red. Changed order to AWD in early February, still no build date. Ordered a second car because my first one is through a dealership I didn’t want to work with. Ordered Jan 31 - Ca Route 1, AWD, Red. Scheduled today for September 26th build week. — I ended up...
  7. A 360/Rearview camera option we would like.

    There is an option for this. I think it’s called camera delay or something like that. It has solved most of my desire for a dedicated camera button (although, I would still like one). I now just flip to reverse and back to drive, and then I have a camera until I hit the accelerator.
  8. Tesla's Non-Tesla Supercharger Pilot Program To Open In US In 2022

    This is all a much better answer than I expected, so I am glad I asked. I will note that number 5 is very true. I rarely pay attention to a poster’s name, but anytime I read Jes Sayin, I know exactly who posted the message. It’s the Jes Sayin person again.
  9. Tesla's Non-Tesla Supercharger Pilot Program To Open In US In 2022

    I’ve been meaning to ask… why do you put “Jes sayin” in every post? Isn’t it implied at this point? Jes sayin.
  10. High Temperature - Leave plugged in

    Hello, I just got an interesting message on the dash when I placed the car in park. It is 93 F outside, but the car’s temperature reading says it’s 111 F. The message suggested that due to the heat, I should leave the car plugged in. I’m able to do that, so I did. I assume this allows the AC to...
  11. Mach-E Production Costs Increases and No Longer Profitable For Ford

    Ah, I made a mistake. I did a quick Google search and didn’t study the knowledge panel correctly. I thought the Titanium MSRP was $30k, but it’s actually $37k. I think if you were upgrade the escape interior to match a MachE, it would be around $40k. I actually think that’s pretty generous if...
  12. Still Waiting on a 2021 MME and Now This

    Folks at dealerships are usually less informed than folks on the forums. This actually makes sense. The forums are filled with people who are passionate about this specific car, and compile information from a variety of sources. Dealerships only get information from a single source. Employees at...
  13. Still Waiting on a 2021 MME and Now This

    Ford has announced the software update that fixes the recall. The update is expected mid July. I’m assuming your car is in transit. If so, it’s reasonable to expect that the recall likely won’t add too much wait. Maybe a few weeks. As annoying as it is, you likely won’t remember this after a...
  14. Mach-E Production Costs Increases and No Longer Profitable For Ford

    I’m assuming it would be something like an Escape. I’m not really sure why everyone compares the Mach E to the Edge. It proportionately more similar to the Escape, no? I’d rather have a Mach E than an Escape. I like the amenities and the drive more in a Mach E. However, assuming you upgraded...
  15. What features do you think Ford will include in PowerUp 3.0+

    We’ve been told that Ford intends to do a UI update before eventually implementing the Android OS that will come from Google Automotive Services. It seems likely that they would use a 3.0 version number bump for a large UI update. I’d also caution against assuming we’ll see 2.8… 2.9… then 3.0...
  16. 15K mark-up!

    Looks like a blue window sticker, so it’s dealer ordered. This point is even more true.
  17. CA Clean Fuel Reward + Premium ER

    Hey Everyone, I thought this story might help out others, so I wanted to share. I recently purchased an Extended Range Premium Mach E. When I showed up at the dealership I was told that the car would not be eligible for the $750 California Clean Fuel Reward program. According to the website...
  18. Experience with dealer markup

    Congrats, sounds like you got an amazing deal! If all your local dealerships are putting a $10k markup on GTs, I’m surprised you got a Premium at a $3k markup. The Premiums are much more rare.
  19. May sell the Mach-E...

    Folks in this thread are turning down offers to sell their 1+ year old Mach E for a profit. Folks in other threads are saying it’s dumb to pay over MSRP for a Mach E. Go figure. Mach E’s are only worth MSRP until you own one… then they are priceless.
  20. New CarPlay vehicle integration in iOS 16 coming to the Mach-E?

    I love my iPhone, and love using CarPlay, but I do not think Apple is demonstrating a quality UI here. These mock-ups are designed to look pretty first and foremost. They do not look functional. Hiding all those climate control buttons is a menu is terrible. Those dashboard bubbles do not...
