    Please, no political rants! Interesting article. Not surprising since there are so many more EV options than in the past. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/02/business/tesla-auto-sales-first-quarter.html?unlocked_article_code=1.hU0.qI0-.acqhqLFXfbbr&smid=url-share

    Departure Time Toggles On By Itself

    I decided to set some departure times and toggled them off because I don't need them just yet. This morning it had toggled itself back on. I turned it off. It did it again after stopping on an errand. Why is it doing that and how do I get it to stop?

    Frunk opened by itself!

    The oddest thing happened this morning... Before I left the house this morning, I remote-started the car. Went out to the garage, got in, drove to work, and everything was normal. I get to work, park, shut the car down, and ("thunk, thunk") the frunk opens all by itself! What the heck?! Has...

    Deep Sleep Question

    In passing, I have come across several mentions of Deep Sleep only happening when your MME is sitting unused for two weeks. OK, but I have noticed my car going into Deep Sleep several times overnight after having been driven the previous day, including right now! It wakes right up when I go to...

    Two Weeks In: Random Thoughts & Observations about my New MME

    Ford BlueCruise 1.2 “Prep Package?”

    I’m confused. I noticed that my shop.ford.com timeline page was updated today. Nothing seemed to change on the main page, but I clicked on each of the drop-down categories (Accessories, Packages, Interior, Exterior, Model Information) and noticed a change, or at least I think it was a change...

    I'd Like Some Opinions - Keep My Current Order or Cancel and Order a 2023.5?

    Today's announcement has me in a quandary. My order is built, shipped, and about 3-4 weeks away from delivery. I am trying to decide if, after months of waiting since ordering on November 25, 2022, should I dump my current order and re-order a 2023.5? My order would be identical to the one...

    2023-Model Mach-E VIN Specific Bonus Cash Question

    OK, this may be a dumb question, but I thought I'd ask anyway: You may or may not have seen dealers who are offering " 2023-Model Mach-E VIN Specific Bonus Cash" of $5,900 on models they have on the lot. Quite the deal! It expires in early July. Is there any hope that ordered models get this...

    When does the image of my car appear in FordPass as build week approaches?

    Yes, I searched for this first but could not find anything, so... When I got my VIN in February, I entered it in FordPass and since then it shows the words "2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E" but no picture of the car itself, as I've seen others have on theirs. My question is this: "As my build week...

    Spring '23 Build Dates: NMC or LFP? How will you be able to tell which you have?

    OK, I searched for this and couldn't find it, so I started this thread. According to Ford, LFP batteries are coming and supposedly are being installed on MMEs "in the Spring." One source I saw said they are only going to Europe to begin with, but I'm not sure of the veracity of that source...

    iPod Classic & Mach-e: Can they ever be compatible?

    OK, before I get blasted about old technology, I love my old 2014 iPod Classic. I replaced its failed HD with a modified SD Card setup so it will last a long time. I searched old threads and found a couple of mentions of iPods with few to no specifics of any clarity about whether or not they...
