I take my MachE into the city many times. Scratches/door dings are a way of life in the city, but like someone else mentioned, it occurs in the suburbs...
I live 75 minutes from NYC, and my family visit the city at least once a month for daytrips. 95% of the time we drive down and either street park or parking garage. I've had my MachE for over 18 months and have taken it down to the city and so far I either street parked it or used self parking...
I believe you need the Clean Pass Stickers on your car in order to use the HOV lane on the LIE if you are a single occupant. Check the following: https://dmv.ny.gov/more-info/clean-pass-stickers-high-occupancy-vehicle-lanes-long-island-expressway
Hi, I dropped off my car on Monday, and last night I picked it up. I had the 10K service and state inspection, as well as the windshield and pano roof reseal recalls. My dealer also did the PaaK update as well as 21P22 s/w calibration update (but not the BlueCruise update). They said I was...
I also just dropped off my car at the dealer for the windshield and panoramic roof recalls (plus my 10K service and state inspection). They mentioned they will also do the PaaK update, but they will not do the BlueCruise update because their wifi service is not reliable nor fast enough to...
I did not get an email. I got a phone call. My local Ford dealer left a message telling me I need to schedule an oil change for my MachE. They must read from some canned text and substitute one's car without thinking. Funny!
Thanks for the pictures and comments. I'll be in Binghamton in 2 weeks for a college visit, and I was looking at PlugShare and saw the same charging location.
I sometimes drive Sprain Brook to west CrossBronx to cross GWB into NJ or Sprain Brook to east Cross Bronx to the WhitestoneBridge. Yes, ride quality is bumpy. Though being the driver or having a front passenger, we notice the bumpiness, but it isn't too bad. However, rear seat passengers (at...
Over the weekend, went to son's soccer tournament in Somerset, NJ. Twice charged my car at the EA location at Target in Bridgewater. Both times, saw another MachE (another Red and a White MachE) getting charged (free EA weekend)
Sorry, I wasn't impressed with my cold weather trip yesterday. Have a Premium AWD with ER. Charged it up 100% the night before for a 178 mile trip plus an additional 17 miles on the return leg to get to a EA fast charger (total 195 miles). My GOM showed 228 when I left. Car was outside, and...
Hi, in NYC, there is the Delancey and Essex municipal parking garage in lower Manhattan where it contains charging stations and it is self parking (no parking valet). The White Plains EA on Central Ave mentioned earlier has a lot of food options (Shake Shack, HMart with food court). If you...
Greetings. I'm in Dutchess County, and I have seen only a few other MachEs since I got the car back in April. I really enjoy driving the car and I drive it a lot more than my Ecoboost Mustang Vert (especially with the increasing gas prices). You will love the car when you receive it.
Ah, finally, after 6 months with the car, saw another MachE owner on the road (I saw one parked in Manhattan when I was walking around, but no other sightings until now). Saturday, mid-afternoon, northbound I-684. I was following a Ferrari, when I noticed a white or silver MachE coming up fast...
Hi, it might be too far away. But I got mine done in Carmel, NY with Ultimate Auto Detailing (ask for Sabrina). Great work IMO, and it was less expensive than I thought it would be. They use IGL ceramic coatings.
Just a shout out to Ultimate Auto Detailing in Carmel, NY. Sabrina and her crew did a polish, compound and IGL Kenzo ceramic coating to my car, and it looks fantastic!
Just got back from the detail shop. Polish, compound and then IGL Kenzo ceramic coating. Not sure if I want to drive it. I just want to stare at it. :)
Back in July 2020 when I ordered my MachE, I knew my current car was on its last legs, 2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Limited. Sure enough, in February 2021, it died at 199K miles. Then a month later, I picked up my MachE
Hi, just visited the Allentown area last week. Went to the Village West shopping center EA DC fast charger twice last week. No issues, just plug and charge. Odd thing. I think it was free charging. I have yet to see any bill or deduction from my FordPass Charging Network bundle of...
Made another trip to Manhattan yesterday. This time parked at 123 Baxter Street, which is an automated garage. Garage door opens, one drives in, park, turn off engine, lock the door, walk to the kiosk, answer questions to ensure you got everything from the car. Garage door closes, and from a...
