  1. 2nd Mach-E/Blue Cruise involved crash

    The real solution is for the driver to pay attention to the road and be ready to take over for any ADAS/BlueCruise/FSD.
  2. New GTPE owner notes

    Every time I get to the end of my annual subscription, as soon as the price is supposed to jump to $22/month or whatever, I call them and "cancel". I never actually cancel as the mere threat gets them to honor the previous price. I think with taxes and fees I pay about $7 per month. The tactic...
  3. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    I understand what you're trying to say even though you approached it in an unconventional and unnecessarily confusing sort of way. You're trying to say that no matter what the refund, it's an amount that was your money to begin with because it was either previously withheld from your paycheck...
  4. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    I believe there is a 0.00001% chance the car gets bought back by Ford. And not because of the pseudo issues with the car, but more likely just so they never have to hear from this guy again.
  5. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    Wrong. The withholding is irrelevant. See my post explaining it. I'll tell you what, I won't argue with you about how Linux works or how system administration works, if you don't argue with me about accounting issues.
  6. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    I never gave any opinion about what the government does or doesn't do. I simply gave you facts about how the EV tax credit works.
  7. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    You could not be more wrong in your assessment of how the application of the EV tax credit or tax credits in general actually function. Your withholding is irrelevant. Whether you have money withheld or not does not affect the applicability of the tax credit. If, after your Adjusted Gross...
  8. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    This is where I’m confused about exactly what has happened with your emergency braking issue. In previous posts you mentioned backing out of your driveway when the emergency braking occurred for a phantom object. So are you saying that this has actually occurred on the highway? The car turned on...
  9. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    This is a good point actually. I hadn’t really made the connection before, but it does seem to happen after OTAs have been installed. I don’t think that’s the case every time, but probably have of the occurrences have been after an update.
  10. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    Other than the couple of times the message popped up, were you able to use Adaptive Cruise Control for the remainder of your trip home? The touchscreen crashing and rebooting happens to me 1-2x per week. It's usually right when I turn the car on, and it takes an extra 30-60 seconds for it to...
  11. LA to Vegas trip?

    The first two responses sum it up perfectly. I have also made the same trip, but from Vegas to LA and back, as I live in Las Vegas. Your best bet if you're staying on or near the strip is to find one of those Level 2 options. If you're going to be on the West side of the city though, the two...
  12. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    But I am on pins and needles waiting for the essay about the results of the EV Tech Wizard's service work on the car. I've invested the time in Acts I thru XIII of this drama, I need to see how it ends.
  13. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    I think what I have gathered from the (numerous) previous posts (including approximately 875,342 words) by the OP is the following problems: 1) While backing out of his driveway the collision alert went off and the car applied the emergency brakes for what appears to be a phantom object. -...
  14. A New Hope? The Story Continues.

    After reading this thread, one of my favorite quotes came to mind. From the 1995 Adam Sandler classic, Billy Madison: "Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to...
  15. MME vs Chevy Blazer EV

    I still haven't seen one of these in real life.
  16. Rivian R2 Reveal w/ R3 and R3X Surprises! $45K, 0-60 >3 seconds, 300+ miles range, NACS port, 4695 batteries

    I'm not a subscriber to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, so I can't read the entire article. But from the first two paragraphs, the article sounds very misleading... "Rivian, the electric vehicle upstart that announced more than two years ago plans to build a $5 billion vehicle and battery...
  17. Rivian R2 Reveal w/ R3 and R3X Surprises! $45K, 0-60 >3 seconds, 300+ miles range, NACS port, 4695 batteries

    I was thinking the same thing watching the live stream. I didn't notice a charging port if there was one.
  18. Rivian R2 Reveal w/ R3 and R3X Surprises! $45K, 0-60 >3 seconds, 300+ miles range, NACS port, 4695 batteries

    They conveniently left out any mention of specs related to the R3, including starting price or expected production/delivery dates.
  19. Rivian R2 Price & Specs Leaked: $47500, 0-60 3 Sec, 330 Miles Range

    I went ahead and reserved an R2. I have 2+ years to change my mind or to see if they stay in business haha. They didn't reveal all of the specs during the event, nor have they published any preliminary specs for the variations of the R2 on their website. All we know is they have a single, dual...
  20. Mustang Mach-E Rally Edition! Priced ~$65K, 480hp, 650lb-ft, raised 20mm, Rally Sport Mode, ordering open early 2024

    I can't stress it enough, I HATE the wheels. It might have a long tradition, but it doesn't mean they look good. Horrible. Love the yellow and eruption green though.
