    Track test performance figures for Mach-E Premium AWD EX (by Motor Trend)

    Some earlier qualitative reports were saying that braking was slow. These are very good stopping distances.

    For those of you who have had iPhone battery drain issues using Ford Pass, I just received this.

    Apple will reportedly start building an EV with a "breakthrough" battery in 2024

    Given Apple's track record with iPhone battery performance, life, and the way those force planned product obsolescence, I'll give their car a pass.

    What will be your first song? Playlist?

    Cool. The 'K" series number plate tells us that the blue car is registered in Köln Germany (aka Cologne), but the video was shot somewhere else. I couldn't quite work it out for sure. The palms trees and features of the people suggest southern Europe. I'm guessing Spain.

    Update on Mach-E launch progress from engineering friends in Mexico

    There's an (in)famous 11' 8" bridge in North Carolina that's eaten more vehicles than you can believe. Drivers don't see the sign, ignore the flashing lights and still drive under it. There are lots of videos. Why do I find these entertaining? ??

    Question About Extent of Voice Control Capabilities

    The manual list of examples is very sparse. I found this in the manual for temperature, but so far haven't found a complete list of Sync 4A voice commands.

    Update on Mach-E launch progress from engineering friends in Mexico

    I have a 4k drone and am a licensed Part 107 pilot. But there's no way I'm making that trip!

    Mustang Mach E Review by Alex on Autos - Part 1 and Part 2

    Ford makes a big deal out of personalization, e.g. 3 memories and all of that for seats, climate -- tons of stuff. And then you reach down to unlock the steering wheel tilt/telescope and adjust it manually. A bit of magic lost. Having said that, agreed. It is a first world problem. ?

    Mustang Mach E Review by Alex on Autos - Part 1 and Part 2

    My Lincoln MKX has it. As much as the Mach E weighs, the delta weight is negligible. The resultant loss of personalization is inexcusable. It's pissing my wife off already before we even get the car.

    Would you fix your own Mach-E

    I'm going to try my darnedest to hack the outside pedestrian alert noise to the Jetson's sound.

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    Appreciate your analysis and I’m not shooting the messenger here. BUT what was my $500 for? To make me feel special? Because it’s not working...??

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    Except that my order number has stayed the same since 6/24 despite my two changes. However the changes could have messed up my place in line (despite my reservation number). Am I wrong in thinking that VINs don’t get assigned until production?

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    I did change the color. That was in addition to making the earlier change from RWD to AWD when Ford dropped the prices. However, the dealer assured me that this wouldn’t affect my place in the queue.

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    When the road show visited my dealer on 10/19, they said that they had 7 other Mach E customers. I was their first reservation -- 1/8/2020. They were EV certified before then.

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    Perry Ford Lincoln of San Luis Obispo. They are EV certified. They've always been good to me, but the Mach E processes seemed to have perplexed them. Reading between the lines, I don't think they're getting the support they need from Ford corporate. With regards my situation and the "battery...

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    It's legit. I have a screenshot from WBDO with the 6/24 date and my order number 0224 on it. As I recall, dealers were able to get orders in early that week with the general web-based order conversion starting about a week later (but I may recall incorrectly). My dealer swears that my...

    Extended Range battery shortage?

    Thank you for your suggestion. At this stage, the Mach E helpline (Ford Marketing) can't give any insight and tells me to contact my dealer because I ordered through them instead of online. I appreciate your help.
