    The PAAK POLL - does it “work” for you?

    1. PAAK will work fine one day - then not the next. It's random and unreliable. Overall, it works 25% of the time. This past Spring, it seemed to work for weeks in a row, and then it was back to sparingly. 2. '21 Premium AWD 3. Google Pixel 4a 4. There is no change in how I approach the...

    Extreme Price Disparity for Replacement Panoramic Roof (Part No. LJ8Z-74500A18-B)

    I cracked my pano roof on the right side above the front passenger. After a few hours, one of the crack's "legs" began to extend and now in about a foot long and ends at the front edge of the glass. I'm guessing that was from the car being out in the sun and heating the glass. In the 3 days...

    Have you been Coal Rolled?

    I've had ICE Mustangs (and a Corvette the other day) throttle their engines while alongside me. It's just them thumping their chest to try and feel important.

    How often do you have to reboot large screen?

    I've had it happen to me a few times - I think it only happens when the car is parked facing the sun. The center screen must be heating up while parked. So, now when I park, I drape a small towel over the back of the screen. I haven't had the issue since.

    SSM 49673 - Sirius Presets/Audio Settings Not Saving After A Key Cycle

    Totally worked. Thanks. At first I didn't mind so much that my equalizer settings didn't reload when I turned my car on. But then last week we put the fader on full-back so that the kids could listen to music without it playing on the front speakers. And the car decided to keep THAT setting...

    Huge VW ID4 ad push. Where is Ford??

    Just a guess, since the F150 is their best selling vehicle. I figured they'd make as many as possible. Yes, the Mach E was limited to 50k in the first year. It's possible they increase production numbers in the coming years.

    Huge VW ID4 ad push. Where is Ford??

    Ford is only planning on making 50k Mach E's per year. It's not supposed to compete with VW or Tesla is number of units sold. The F150 Lightning, on the other hand, is supposed to be sold in higher numbers, and we'll probably see tons of commericals for them.

    Drivers door suddenly not unlocking

    I had the same issue and Ford fixed it in 30 minutes. In the meantime, if you push the button on any other door, the driver door button should work You'll have to then close that other door - an extra step, but a quick short-term fix until you have time to bring it in to the dealer.

    Carbonized Gray Spotted in the Wild Monday near Kensington, MD

    I originally said it was me. Then saw your post was from today, so I deleted it. But after rereading the title (where it clearly says "Monday"), I updated my post again. If you're wondering why you had three notifications and only one reply, it was my inability to handle simple conversation :)

    Carbonized Gray Spotted in the Wild Monday near Kensington, MD

    That was me! I did see you crossing, but I mistook your thumbs up as a thank you for actually stopping at the red light and not hitting you. :)

    Ford Motor Company Introduction ?

    My biggest issue with the car is that when I am listening to music and receive a call, the music comes to a screaching stop as the sound system transitions to playing my ring tone. It is very jarring. It'd be nice if the music would just stop (or fade away) without the extra noise. Loving...

    SPOTTED: New Mach-e in Arlington, VA

    I saw a CG last week driving EAST on 50. It had NY plates, though. Wanted to wave, but they had just turned off the road.

    Can't open driver's door first

    I had the same issue with my front door. It would only open if I opened any other door first or physically pushed the FOB unlock button. Whatever caused it happened about 2 weeks ago. It was enough of an annoyance that I brought it into Ford (instead of waiting for an update), and 30 minute...

    Thought of your post when I came across this today: https://insideevs.com/news/507098/geely-battery-swapping-china-video/ They even mention the Renault testing. And, being Israeli - I hope you enjoyed your stay there!

    DIY car wash and ceramic coating recommendations

    Nothing yet. Two weeks ago I used Chemical Bros Butter Wax. It's not ready for ceramic coating - it may be easier to give the wax time to fade instead of trying to scrub it all off.

    DIY car wash and ceramic coating recommendations

    Thanks! After I read your previous comment, I went to their webpage and read up on their product. I was pretty convinced and was ready to buy (with the $25 code!). Then I saw the "how many bottles do I need" link and it said 6 (for 2 coats on an SUV). When I added my wife's car, it said 7...
