    PowerUp 4.x Poll

    Yet your 4.2.2.2 still leaves my 3.5.3.3 about 0.6.8.9 in your dust. Arghhh.

    What Happened to 4.2.5 in My Car?

    Jealous. I finally got off Window's 95 at least... Hello 98, just waiting for ME or maybe 7!! Seriously, finally got two updates this week. But only on 3.5.3.3. Still way behind.....

    New Shelby American Mach-E Reveal Tomorrow (4/26)

    I'd wager the Carbon Fiber is more of a tribute to buyers who dig it. What little they converted seems it would not make much of a difference on a 5000 pound vehicle. I dig the concept of carbon fiber, but not really fond of just trying to show it off. @dtbaker61 said something about...

    New Shelby American Mach-E Reveal Tomorrow (4/26)

    Yep. I agree. But I still want it. And it will come. Eventually. But it will take a bigger player than Shelby, and tech we probably don't have yet. Or Hydrogen! :) I think the coolant system is a step towards eliminating the 5 second issue. But maybe something Ford would need to adopt...

    New Shelby American Mach-E Reveal Tomorrow (4/26)

    Dear Shelby, please re-consider. First off, the awesome GT500 sounds, the up-shifts, the down-shifts. Cool? Sure. Once, maybe. But the MME is technologically way ahead of the 500. An EV making sounds like an ICE machine is like teaching a wolf to bark like a dog or putting a 5 1/4" floppy...

    Are those defects or I'm just too picky?

    I'm less concerned about panels, more concerned that the house on top of this car wash may slide off the roof! Is it just me, or is this building totally crooked? Photos can create optical illusions, but compare the lines to presumed level building in the background. I'm pretty sure this...

    What Do You Hate About Your Mach-E?

    Looks like your dust-buster is malfunctioning, too!! I got the same problem, now that it 's warm enough to roll the windows down.

    Are those defects or I'm just too picky?

    My only noticeable imperfection - Something environmental may be happening as my passengers often note elevated adrenaline levels, motion sickness, increased gravity. One stated he felt like lost his stomach. And cargo keeps sliding all over, especially on curvy roads.

    Just got my Goodwill FordPass Rewards

    Well darn, missed that one by about a week. Or two. But sounds like a great incentive!

    Just got my Goodwill FordPass Rewards

    Just checked mine. No 600,000 points, but it does say 211 miles to empty. Almost as good... I'm afraid to ask what you had to do to get those points.

    Do not use Florida Turnpike

    Florida you say? I suggest avoid Hwy 101 on that other coast...

    Easy way to keep your charging cable neatly wound

    Lawnchair, cold beer. And me. Right between the car and the 240 outlet, which also happens to be directly in front of that 62" TV hanging on the wall in my garage. My wife: "Honey, can you take the trash out?" Me: "Sorry babe, busy holdin' the charging cable up off the floor, otherwise...

    TERROR at the CAR WASH 🫧💦

    Next time I bid on an off-lease vechicle, I'll check, be sure you didn't rent that one!! :) Please post a link to GYEON product you are recommending, I'd like to consider getting some. Also, have you tried the cheaper, GYEON wet coat variety? No doubt, it is a lesser product, but curious if...

    May not be in my cards

    Sorry if I misled on any of this, more so for your tax bill! We got a refund this year, first time in twenty years maybe. And you got my vote for King! 😃

    May not be in my cards

    Man, pardon me for saying, but I think you're getting worked up over nothing. And maybe putting some words in my mouth (un-cool, man.) You introduced "Billionaire", not my term. Not my definition of anything. I suggested most folks buying this car probably qualify for the credit. I didn't...

    May not be in my cards

    Hey @Mach1E, seems I've pushed your buttons. Not my intentions. But your response is alarming. If I understand correctly, you think rich means billionaire and you believe billionaires are paying fair taxes. And you think that folks who leverage the tax credit, - for all you know, 100% within...

    Motorcycles

    We spend about half the summer on the lake. Fishing, boating, kayaking. Hiking. I can work from anywhere I have a good signal, so converted garage in our toy hauler into office space. Had jet skis when we were younger, thinking about trying that again. Sounds like fun! But figured you'd...

    Motorcycles

    My story is similar. Traded the V-max around '90, didn't ride again until the kids were grown. That's a lot of years to wait if you love riding like I do. Wife never touched the bike when we were younger, but took a ride a few years back and was instantly hooked, so my days riding solo ended...

    The Mach-E is a great adventure car

    My Rolls Royce: I ride a '14 Honda Goldwing Valkyrie today. Not a defector from Yamaha so much as I fell in love with the big boxer engine (zero vibration). Only Honda model I ever owned, and possibly all I'll ride here out. Love naked bikes, love the power. That said, my '87 V-Max was my...

    The Mach-E is a great adventure car

    You had me at Virago!! I never had a Virago, but I had several Maxims, including a Maxim-X (if you recall that one) which was very Virago-ish. Owned nothing but Yamaha for years, love 'em!! But never pushed one 10 miles. :) I guess this fails to relate to Mach-e as an adventure car, but I...
