Hey Guys,
Just thought I'd post this since there are a bunch of 21's getting ready to make their 3 year anniversary. Outside of the first 6 months or so (July 2021 car purchased), when Ford did not have the OTA down very well; I have received regular OTAs generally about 1-2 months after the...
Hey Guys, way back in 2021 I remember forum members posting how they were managing thier home cables from their chargers. I recall one guy having a "spring loaded wheel" type of mechanism. I'm curious what are you all doing for your cords to keep them neat and tidy. Is there a down side to...
From what I read China may be quickly becoming the leader in electrification of automobiles. Yes Tesla Fan Boys they are nipping at your heels. How do we as Americans and Europeans feel about this? See the poll above.
This article/video below is a small but compelling BYD hatchback that is...
OMG, the prototype 2025 Porsche Taycan is looking like a BEAST!!! 365 miles/charge and 8%-80% charge in 16 minutes!!! Is that even possible? I may not have even made it to the restroom at Walmart by the time the car would be charged and ready to roll............see article below...
I had the opportunity to rent the EV 6 over the New Years weekend (3 days) while visiting family in Houston. I just thought I would give my impressions vs. the MME. For background I've been driving my MME since July 2021. So, of course I'm much more familiar with it than the EV 6. But just...
When will these elusive adapters be ready from Ford or Tesla. Yes, I'm aware of a 3rd party one already available. I would prefer one made by TESLA since it is their proprietary software/hardware. February is now less than 5 weeks away o_O!!! As we have all seen the video this week of a local...
Well, I guess since it is assembled in Mexico and the battery is from China; those who don't purchase before the New Year will be out of luck. I guess Leasing Loophole will make more sense come Jan. 1st.
How Bad will this hurt sales? What is the competition's situation...

The New Model 3 Refresh, reviewed by Kyle Connor.
Highlights:
1. Soft / Comfortable Suspension**
2. Much Quieter than Old Model 3
3. Ventilated Seats** ( I really miss ventilated seats)
**This all on the BASE MODEL...
Looks like the Feds are going to let you feel the instant gratification instead of having to wait for April 15th of the following year. This was on Electrek.com
Let's hope it is true. I wonder, what kind of shenanigans the Dealers will play with this.

It's National Drive Electric Week. Click on the link and find an event near you. Let's show 'em what a Good Looking EV Looks Like!!!
I occasionally watch Kyle review electric cars and stumbled across his review of this NIO Sport Wagon this am. I have some real ethical and moral concerns about China in general; and would have some issues buying a Chinese product (although everyone of us knowing or not have multiple Chinese...
I received this warning on the car and the Ford Pass App this morning after pulling out of my driveway on the way to work. I did charge last night (Level 2) - Juice Box. The funny thing is I really don't drive this car very hard. She's more my "Baby" than my muscle car. ( I get my "thrills"...
I've owned my 21' MME now for 2 years today!!! Outside of the initial Cluster F**** from the 1st few months when PAAK did not work really at all; then I had to take to the Dealer for an update; my updates since have all been pretty Flawless. I would keep an eye on the forum and generally 2-4...

Moving closer to the TESLA model. Yet, still have to have a dealer. An inventory that lets you get the car with in 10 days. All very interesting.
Will the dealers that agreed to the program...

Ford,
Not sure if you've read the forum over the last few years, but most of us equate purchasing a car from a Dealer like going to the Dentist for a LONG, PAINFUL PROCEDURE. I think Tesla has shown that we don't need a...
I came across this on insideevs.com. Thought it might be helpful to those new Mach E or New EV owners. If your new to EV ownership your car is not broken!! The cold temps negatively impact your battery. This is true across all makes and models. See below. It would have been better if there...
Anyone else having issues with the FP App today? I charged my car last night and when I looked at the App this am it had the same distance to empty and % as when I plugged it in. When I got in the car I noticed the car did infact charge. I refreshed my app several times this am and even...
Fall is here and it's a great time of year. However, I have my car set to Precondition the cabin before work. Well yesterday was a little chilly outside (59 degrees) and the insulated garage was (64 degrees) and my Preconditioning was still set to "Cool" instead of "Heat" or "Medium". So when...
Guys, my (Iphone 10) can only last on the wireless charger for about 40-45 min before the phone gets so hot that the phone shuts down and hence so does Apple Car Play. I was just watching a review of the Rivian R1T and he had the same issue; although he says it craps out after 30 min.
Am I...
Forum,
I could use some assistance. Last week I noticed my PAAK stopped working, which I find annoying as on the weekends the FOB gets hung up. I'm very much a PAAK proponent ever since the original Software update. It's been 95% Flawless for me during the 1st year of MME ownership.
I was in...
