estimated... Ford have not confirmed battery sizes. They just assume as the F150 is a bit of a heavy brick, 2 miles per Kw/h and Ford has said 300 mile range on the big battery model. My guess is 120/130Kw/h as the regen will be huge. But that's just another guess.
Nope, you're right but I think 99% of investors are simply looking at the market. I heard that soon Ford will have more Over the Air Update capable vehicles then Tesla... a point they made in the investor conference, so it's very clear technology and batteries plays a huge part in capital value...
Ford share price over their EV period and yesterday 7% jump after their investor days and a $30Bn announcement re investment in batteries and all things EV.
really interesting to hear about non-bitey brakes. It wasn't my only issue but it was a significant one. What's fantastic is to see the smiles and face to the names with cars delivered. I might have bailed out but I'm still very interested :-)
Just a warning... changing dealer is NOT easy. Essentially Ford cancel your order and then re-order hopefully the same VIN and pass the order to the new dealer. If you can be bothered to search for it see my story about changing colour. I was promised no problem, no delays and it screwed up...
Congratulations!!! Both of you... the patience of a saint but worth it all in the end. Sorry I can't be joining you.
I can wait for the reviews and reports on how you get on.

"Ford’s a customer company. We’ve been in business for 118 years because we’re focused on customers, especially in these kind of iconic spaces like Mustang or Bronco or F-150. I admire companies that are like us who are focused on customers. And I think they’ve done a great job."

Great to see some firm dates for hand overs... as you know I feel your pain but all that will be forgotten soon.
Just wanted to change the subject a little if you will indulge me. The F150 Lightning. 9.6Kw V2L!!! wow... they are also taking about an intelligent charger which will...
Fantastic you are all getting so close to delivery. I thought these last few seconds of the F150 Lightning video might make you smile.
Apparently Ford are putting their customers first... that would be nice. ;-)
I don't wish to wade in on the discussion about alternative EV's here as I don't think it's the place. Others shouldn't feel buyer's guilt and every single one of us have looked at other options and considered our use case and needs. The Mach-e is an excellent choice, will be a great car and...
I've always used GTechniq and it is fantastic stuff. My four year old Discovery looks great with no paint swirls. The home applied stuff is good but you need to be meticulous and it's a whole days work in good weather. I'm not sure the Pro stuff is better... perhaps.
I know exactly how you feel... I think the PiCG is lost as the next customer will not qualify. I finally got my deposit back from Ford today having served them a Notice before Action letter. I looked at my emails - I gave them a grand on the 18/11/2019 and I got it back nearly four months...
