    I bought a 2021 First Edition In March of ā€˜21. It has about 22k miles on it now. It simply put has everything that was available at that time. It has ER battery with 348hp and probably some stuff not available today, eg parking assist, hands free tailgate, etc. Today the car runs as intended and...

    Gone...

    Well, I tried. I got my Mach E First edition in March 2001. In that time I took several road trips of more than 600 miles. In the past 18 months it was flawless but I just had it towed for the third time. All tolled it has been in the shop 5 weeks with electrical issues that made it impossible...

    Different horses for different courses.

    Just an observation from the SE coast. Where I live on an island there is only one other MME. That one belongs to the dealerā€™s son. On the other hand, new Broncos are like you know what. They are everywhere almost spoiling my desire to own one in the near future!

    Here's some news you can use if you are waiting for your new Mach E.

    First things first. I have a 2021 First Edition Mach E I lucked into when the original order was canceled. It has everything. No more options were available when I bought it in March 2021. It's had its issues early on but has been fine since. I got BlueCruise a month ago and used it for the...

    Rear wiper

    Yesterday I was a little peeved when my rear wiper didnā€™t shoot out any fluid to clean it. My immediate reasoning said it must be plugged since I could hear the pump running. The front produced a meager spray but sufficient to clean the windshield. So today I went to check out the problem only...

    JuiceBox Charger

    My JuiceBox like many aftermarket chargers has an internet connection to my local network in my house. It really, in general, performs no function other than to provide information as the charging schedule/limits are set in FordPass. It does have some internal control as Iā€™ve found out. Some...

    Chip shortages

    While I've seen no discussion regarding the Mach E, Ford is obvious;y not immune to the shortage. The article just posted by C&D tells some of the story about some of the effects. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/g38179550/new-cars-tech-features-missing-chip-shortage/?source=nl

    Another “Nit”

    I just noticed today that the displays nowhere include the day/date. Of course you can display it In CarPlay but other than that all you get is showing the time in the upper right corner of the Sync screen. An oversight? Maybe itā€™s something that will get added in an OTA update? As I said, a nit...

    Six months

    Itā€™s just keeps getting better. Iā€™m a pretty aggressive driver (friends, relatives donā€™t let me forget) and only my lack of tech smarts keep it from being the best car (FE) in recent memory (out of 44 other cars, trucks). PAAk is working perfectly and range keeps getting better.

    Problems with WAZE?

    Is anyone else having a problem with WAZE? Sometimes it will come on when selected in Apple but will not hook up to a trip. Other times it will work fine except I can't send messages re traffic, Popo, accident, etc. It works fine on my iPhone but not in Sync??

    Have you heard…

    About the price of gas leading up to the 4th of July? Are you concerned? ?

    Intelligent Cruise Control only reads speed signs on the right hand side of the road!

    Been playing around with the ICC set with a +9 mph tolerance and it works pretty well. There is one thing though. Apparently it only reads speed signs on the right hand side of the road! At least thatā€™s what I experienced several times today.

    An Affirmation of the Mustang Mach E

    Over the past few months I've posted a lot of stuff about the mach E, some good, one very bad after my first road trip. But even that minor disaster turned into a great experience with Ford and it customer care. I don't know that I'll continue to post a lot but I wanted to leave with this one...

    Charge Point

    Today I was out and about with some time to spare so I decided to try to find a charging station on south side Savannah, GA. The Snyc app performed flawlessly identifying 4-5 stations within a mile or so. It noted that several of the Charge Point stations were free! I go to the closest and itā€™s...

    First Charge Point, now JuiceBox

    When I got my FE I immediately went to order a Charge Point charger only to find that there were none to had (except for one with 100% markup). I even called Charge Point and they said they wouldnā€™t have any more until the end of April! So, I jumped to JuiceBox 32, the new #1 on Amazon. The...
