    Do You Love Coffee?

    It's Coffee Talk! The $50/pound includes shipping lol. Not everyone knows about Da Kona! Just thought I'd share with the larger community.

    Do You Love Coffee?

    After living in Hawaii most of my life I'll say that drinking Kona Coffee from the 3,500 acres of volcano land on the Big Island is an awesome experience. If you love coffee and can afford $50/pound coffee beans, then you should try to order some Kona Coffee that can be delivered to your house...

    High Voltage Battery Junction Box (HVBJB) Replacement Recall for recall HVBJB in 30,013 Mach-E

    The second generation ones were installed on those newer cars and the new HVBJV parts were 'beefier', and supposedly fixed the problem. Doubts remain.

    GTPE P-Zero Tires and New EV Tires on Market

    My old tires P-Zero at 90% charge were solid at 230 mile range with half tread life (same commute every day), the new tires dropped the range to 220 miles (disappointing) after a week of driving, then slowly returned to around 223 mile range after 5,000 miles of driving (same commute with...

    GTPE P-Zero Tires and New EV Tires on Market

    Yeah, I haven't noticed any big handling changes. However, I take freeway 'semi-sharp' merging turns at around 60 MPH with zero loss of control. I'm not much into track racing so that's my limit on the handling part. A bit less noise no significant differences otherwise.

    GTPE P-Zero Tires and New EV Tires on Market

    After tire break in period ~5,000 miles, still seeing a slight 3% loss of range from the Bridgestone Turanza EV tires as compared to the tires I replaced(stock Pirelli P-Zero) on the GTPE. =(

    I wonder if this blue cruise 3.0 will update after I get my 20,000 mile checkup?

    Should I have Hands Free Tailgate Kick Lift function?

    When will Ford re-enable this feature as they 'promised when chips became available' for 2022 Mach-E's?

    What is your solar set up if you have one ?

    62 solar panels installed in 2012, generating 21 MWH per year. Enough free electrons for the entire household + 50 mile roundtrip commute.

    Coming soon: BlueCruise 1.3

    I'm looking forward to 1.3 to test out how it works on the narrow lanes of H1 Interstate in Honolulu. Let's just hope it can drive me all the way to work instead of half way to work. ROFL

    Blue Cruise map enhancements.

    Half the H1 freeway network in Hawaii is not available for BlueCruise. Lanes are too narrow.

    NACS adapter coming when?

    All the Walmart's on Oahu are getting Electrify America superchargers! https://electrek.co/2023/03/15/electrify-america-hawaii/

    “Drive Mode not available”

    Happens to me only occasionally, drive mode gets reset to Engage Mode. It will not switch to Unbridled typically for the rest of the trip. Eventually the car allows you to change back to other modes. Annoying bug.

    New Bridgestone Turanza EV tires (with "Enliten" tech) for Teslas, Mach-E promises better durability

    Yes, I am also disappointed by the 10% range reduction on an EV specific tire. Maybe I'll try the Hankook's in three years when they're cheaper ;)

    New Bridgestone Turanza EV tires (with "Enliten" tech) for Teslas, Mach-E promises better durability

    My initial estimates on these Turanza tires is you will lose some range as compared to the PZero Pirellis. I'm estimating around 20-25 miles of range loss on a 90% full to 20% battery charge, or around 10% less mileage on a GT Performance model. Three 50 mile round trips to work usually...

    New Bridgestone Turanza EV tires (with "Enliten" tech) for Teslas, Mach-E promises better durability

    Update: Tires are harder than the Pirelli PZero's so they tend to slip a bit on a slow roll launch. Hope that translates to more road miles before the tread wears out. Quieter for sure. Still evaluating the handling and range.
