We looked at almost every major competitor. Right now lease deals are pretty aggressively priced. I *wanted to like* the Ioniq5. But it felt like I was riding in a Jetsons car. And the seats were awful for me. I wanted to buy an EV9 but this is my wife's car and she didn't want that big of a...

I went 21 premium extended AWD to '24 GT nonperformance pack. There's a lot of little changes that are hard to notice but add up. Most of them are good. - We test drove a '24 premium and the suspension is significantly better. Our '21 was awful. GT is fantastic. -'24 AWD Extended get more...

A dog hanging out a window with the wind blowing in it's face living it's best life doesn't care how it looks. Neither do I.

I took my kid to school on the back of this for about 3 years, rain or shine. Took it grocery shopping, to the bar, to the game shop, to friends. It was a vehicle replacement. It was an absolute blast and provided a connection and ability to converse with my kids that you can't do from the...

You don't have to be miserable while also being more responsible. Both can exist at the same time.

And if I'm being super honest, the biggest "EV" impact isn't BEV passenger cars. It's e-bikes and other micro mobility like scooters that benefit from improvements in battery and electric motor technologies. I can go 25 miles ripping at close to 25MPH with an ear to ear grin for about $.10 on...

If I want to get really mushy on the environmental aspect of EV's... I'm paying for renewable energy to my house. A lot of my power is from the Columbia River. Energy to EV's is just going to get greener and more sustainable over time. And you don't have to do anything as a car owner except...

My first "car" was an '85 Ranger. It was a standard cab, RWD 4-cylinder that had the most finicky clutch you could imagine. It wouldn't do more than 55MPH unless it was going downhill. I've always lusted for a tire shredding, snarling small block like the Mustang or the Pontiac GT(Old Holden...

My 2021 is also a nightmare of warnings, alarms, dead sensors, failing paint, and camera issues. I'm at a similar crossroads. Just right now my 2021 is sitting in a shop trying to be diagnosed after a flurry of errors showed up a week ago after an OTA update. And now they can't even get the...

My primary dealer was 6 weeks out from being able to look at it. Took it to the other side of town this morning and waiting to see what's up.

Thanks for the Rock auto recommendation.

They didn't even try to suggest that. My liaison is supposed to call today. Should be an interesting conversation.

I would like to update that after posting this Ford Corporate reached out to me directly to help correct. I've got a personal liaison assigned. I did get it over to a dealer today to see what they could do. It's a 6 week wait because they only have one EV tech for one of the largest dealers...

@rugedraw - Bless you! Thanks!!!

Holding 12.29 on the 12v.

6 days at very modest temps on a slightly older than 3 year old car with 20k miles. I'd hope not.

Well it won't accept any driving modes and the errors say to immediately call a dealer. And frankly with as much sensor based things are in this vehicle I have no idea what is or isn't compromised. And no this happens now every time the car is turned on. Cycling through just leaves all of the...

Because that's not a solution. That's a band aid.

Was on vacation all last week. Got home, wife started up car. Oh yay updates. And then my app started going crazy with ABS faults, collision faults, ect. And she came in talking about all of the error messages showing up. Car is technically out of warranty. Thanks Ford. Another quality...

If I could walk away from this thing today I would. Still have 18 months left on a 2021 Options model. Had to have the roof panel under the fin repainted. Front camera repaired. Panoramic roof recalled. Windshield recalled. The cruise control randomly just stops working until I pull over and...
