  1. Sandy Munro Mach-E Review with Chief Engineer Donna Dickson

    Yes, I would recommend a second key fob. I'll probably go back to get another. The cooling system may have many hoses, but it does seem effective. The cabin cooling is excellent, and based on my limited experience you might want to confirm that in other EVs.
  2. Does anyone actually love their MME?

    The car is more fun to drive than anything I've ever owned, and it isn't even close. While sporty and fast, it is also quiet and feels refined. I'd definitely buy it again, and if my wife doesn't stop taking mine, I might have to.
  3. Can I use a 3-prong 240 volt plug with an adapter?

    Yes, I would think Ford could make a NEMA 10-30 adapter available for the mobile charger that would automatically set it to a lower amperage. We already have two adapters included. Maybe they worry these older circuits are not a good everyday plan ....
  4. Can I use a 3-prong 240 volt plug with an adapter?

    It is 200 miles to my brother's house, far from any fast charger, and I'd like to use his NEMA 10-30 dryer outlet to get enough charge to make it home. So of course be careful with your home charging outlet, but I can imagine many scenarios where one might want to temporarily use a 30 amp...
  5. Munro Mach-E Teardown - Thermal System Part 2

    I'm not sure how much of the system is devoted to cooling the cabin vs. the battery and mechanicals, but I'm highly impressed with the effectiveness of the AC in the Mach E. By contrast, I rode in a Model X this week in 90+ degree weather and it couldn't keep the cabin comfortably cool. Never...
  6. Munro Mach-E Teardown - Thermal System Part 2

    Yes, he does have quite positive things to say about the Mach E (other than thermal management). Definitely looks to be built as an EV from the ground up, and not a retrofit. I've enjoyed the videos!
  7. long delay on the driver's door touch to lock?

    Had you specifically asked the dealer to look at that problem? Or was the fix part of a general software update? Wondering what I need to ask of my dealer in order to get this corrected.
  8. 4,500 Mustang Mach-E owners will have to wait even longer .

    Same here with the 2/28 scheduled build. The tracker now says build data of 3/5 (yesterday) but the delivery date has disappeared. It previously showed 4/15.
  9. Michelin launches Pilot Sport EV Tires

    I'll be interested to see how quickly tires wear on the MME, given the weight of the car.
  10. Thanks to my son...I have (we have!) a Mach-E after just 24 hours and 800 miles

    Congrats! The trip and story will no-doubt make everything about the car more memorable!
  11. Update on Mach-E launch progress from engineering friends in Mexico

    Wall Street Journal is reporting that Ford is slowing F-150 production due to the industry-wide chip shortage. https://www.wsj.com/articles/fords-2021-to-do-list-is-topped-by-fixing-quality-problems-11612450536?mod=hp_lead_pos6 I would think Ford would only slow F-150 production after it had...
  12. Order Scheduled for Production Date

    Build date was just pushed back from 2/14 to 3/1. Order Date 6/30/2020 Order Number 100104xx Premium ER AWD The fact that a few people are actually receiving their vehicles does encourage me, but I feel like the last kid picked for kickball.
  13. Order Scheduled for Production Date

    My Premium ER AWD production date was just pushed from 2/7 to 2/15.
  14. Delayed delivery date now moved up (sooner)

    Just received an email that my production date is slipping a week to Feb 15th. My relatively early reservation and order - order #10xxx - haven't put me anywhere near front of the queue for whatever reason. I wonder if production was delayed over the same issue causing the rework. Premium ER...
  15. AWD Mach-E Slip Test vs Model Y by TFL

    I wonder if Ford could change the traction control behavior when in L, to prioritize getting unstuck in the snow or mud. If so, I assume we could receive it in an over-the-air update.
  16. Shipped Mach-Es Arrive at Kansas City Terminal With Deliveries Imminent

    I wonder if we should generally assume seven weeks between build data and US delivery. Or is that too simplistic?
  17. Embargo lifted! Discuss the Mach-E first drive videos/articles HERE

    That should help. Wasn't his only complaint about the frunk design.
  18. ARTICLES Compilation: Mach-E First Drive Reviews

    I think he was intent on comparing the driving dynamics to that of a Mustang coupe, rubbing Ford's nose in the decision to use the Mustang badge. Not a helpful review.
  19. Embargo lifted! Discuss the Mach-E first drive videos/articles HERE

    I suspect a few reviewers, like Tech Crunch, were intent on comparing the driving to a GT 500 coupe - maybe their payback over Ford using the Mustang name. Those who compared it to other roomy crossovers seemed well impressed.
  20. Embargo lifted! Discuss the Mach-E first drive videos/articles HERE

    Yes, he was thorough and positive. He does savage the frunk design - didn't realize it would be so hard to access.
