    Android Widget for Mach-E [Less Complex]

    Hi Ken, maybe you can help your former student figure this one out... I have 3 fords and all 3 were working in an older version (F150, Mach E, Maverick) that stopped working in I think October. I figured I'd check back again if the API stuff opened back up because I'm having LVB issues on my...

    Is Mach E extra susceptible to windshield chips?

    Well, we've owned it nearly 1.5 years now, and since my initial post, we have had ZERO new chips. I had one chip in my 2013 Escape, in my previous 6 vehicles over 30 years, then 2 chips in the first month on this car seemed CRAZY! Very hard to prove anything but who knows. Anyway, no new...

    Chiming confusion.

    I had this same mystery with my F150 for a while, and it turned out that it considers railroad tracks a "hazard". So any time I was near or approaching railroad tracks it would chime. I didn't realize this for months until one day I had the Nav screen open while driving and noticed the symbol...

    California Clean Air Vehicle Decal

    My personal opinion? While I love the ability to use the HOV lanes (at half price or free, depending on when and where), I think sunsetting the program in 2025 is probably fine. Just using 680 and 880 as examples in the bay area, the portions of 680 that actually *do* have the HOV lanes, they...

    One pedal drive (vs) Brake regen

    Oh man, this thread has been highly entertaining! What I'm noticing is there may be 2 definitions of coasting and so folks may be arguing against their own assumptions. "Coasting" Definition 1) Shifting to Neutral to disengage the drive train, which will (in theory) reduce rolling resistance...

    Did you know there's a tax credit for installing a charger and/or wiring?

    I was happy when I read that the IRA was bringing the home install credit back (aka section 30C) but then found info about how it is income capped and zip code restricted. Basically, incentive to reduce barriers for lower income folks to enter the EV market. I'll certainly be filling it out in...

    When asked what kind of mileage do you get?

    This is exactly how I do it when folks sound interested. Very quick and easy using "current" prices or worst/best case prices. I like it better than eMPG which is energy equivalence, rather this is more like $MPG equivalence. Last summer gas here was $5/gal and summer efficiency was about...

    4.1.2 OTA pushes to Early Access Mach-E owners

    My first time trying this out, and I found I had to add a few more steps to Rick's directions. The "ota" filter isn't needed but it helps, but I found that by default my Chrome was on "Headers" but once I poked around I found that selecting "Preview" shows the bullets he intended folks to expand.

    How do I tell a '23 from a '22 on the street?

    Easiest way to tell a '22 from a '23 is that the '23 appears $3k to $9k more expensive

    Ordered Extended Range Battery, Got the Standard

    We're happy to help here at the Mach E Forum with just a few simple questions! First and most importantly, what color is the car?

    California Clean Air Vehicle Decal

    The rules are wildly confusing in some areas. I got the flex CAV so I can stop stressing that I gotta set the flex number correctly for the scanner/cameras. Now at least in express lanes they can either not charge or do the half toll thing. I got very confused on 880/580 stretch that says...

    Chart of charging times by level / type?

    I see you have a Premium ER? If so you are in luck because we have the easiest math to use as approximations. I posted about it here: https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/whats-a-good-kw-per-mile-range-on-highway-for-extended-range-battery.21604/post-507597 You'll have to adjust some for...

    Sync 4A Update Overview from Ford - Larger Apple CarPlay Android Auto interface, added dial functionality & more

    It's great to pull up random facts that may be interesting based on conversations going on in the car, or I have used it many times as a calculator while driving. She's a math whiz. Have never even considered asking anything about Amazon stuff, maybe someday though! We need to change the...

    Sync 4A Update Overview from Ford - Larger Apple CarPlay Android Auto interface, added dial functionality & more

    It was very much the same for our first Job1 '21 F150s in regards to trucks rolling off the line and at dealers with far more software features (cameras in motion, bluecruise to name a few) and we were waiting for OTA updates for at least another year. I believe it is a priority call based on...

    Winter city vs highway range loss question

    Very good info. Since my battery couldn't physically be lower temp than the ambient air, it sounds like I was likely still in the optimal range (15-35C, or 59-95F) and therefore not suffering winter range. The only range loss would likely be due to eHeat and I was fine with a jacket and seat...

    Winter city vs highway range loss question

    Thanks team. I'm pleasantly shocked at the performance so I'm really trying to find if this will be repeatable. I should have run Carscanner to check battery temp as well. Missed opportunity! I know my F150 likes to lock in the battery temp right at 95F and must run a tight heat/cool PID...

    Winter city vs highway range loss question

    Hey all, question for the experienced owners that have been through a winter. We've got the expected range loss and GOM predicts from around 250-260mi (extrapolated to 10%) for about the last month. During summer we were roughly 300mi (except when my wife has done a recent freeway trip!)...

    Haha, no, generic term for empty space. I use night/dark mode.

    All I Want for Christmas is (improvements to my MME)...

    Hell yes! My F150 lets you pick all kinds of things in the MyView list for the center of the 12" digital cluster. I was shocked at lack of customization on the MME. And I can't stand the stupid car and proximity/lane centering placed prominently front and center with all that wasted...
