Wondering if I could have done this differently?
The other morning I went to tope the lift gate and I could not. Tried the PAAK, tried the fob, tried the control center button. No joy could not open the lift gate. And then I saw that the VIN based bluetooth connection was coming on and off...
Having agreed to test a new feature I went to use it. Only problem is in following the directions I could not find it to use it. So I called the toll free Early Adopter support line. I ended up taking to Marketing and In Vehicle support 4 times and 3 times specifically. No one from the Early...
My Mustang Mach-E quickly showed me that owning an EV is easy and you can take long trips. Then I needed a new second car. So I wrote an article on getting that second EV...a Mini Cooper S EV. Ford guys so what about a second car EV?
Living with only Electric cars – can it be done?
Was at the dealer getting service (PAAK update) and was chatting with my salesman. Good guy! They have a Mach-E acquired at auction (my guess is a Ford Exec short term car.). If intersted call Rodney Nowells at +19199611029. Crossroads Ford Wake Forest.

On NC-147 south bound when the speed changed from 55 mph to 65 mph the car said it was 85 and began to accelerate to 85 immediately till i tapped the brakes. Soooo glad I was not tailgating. Sent a message to Ford via Twitter since I could not get hold of a concierge on a Sunday evening.
First this is a nice group of folks. Really enjoyed the conversation. Lots of comments from several people on the Mach-E. And couple of fascinating conversations on solar power and Tesla Power Walls. The conversation on how to add a drain the Model 3 and Y frunk was entertaining. They...
The good news is that 1,102 (honest, car had 8 miles on it) cost me $15.45 (NC Duke-Energy 9.23 cents per kW). No long trips all shopping, eating out, and doctor miles.

First I must say that the phone support person for Electrify America was great. An example for all phone support people. What happened is the same as I have seen in nearly all the YouTube videos like "State of Charge".
Went to the EA charge station in Raleigh NC at Parkway and Glenwood...
