    How much privacy would you sacrifice to get an EV?

    I guess my next muscular car will be this

    I don't think it makes difference in real life. For daily use, you don't need to charge to 100%, and for long trips you DC charge to 80% anyway because the charging speed drops after that.

    Scratch on the camera plastic, any way to fix?

    It's only a problem if you have OCD. Paint it over with a black marker to stop noticing it.

    You may suffer twice. He may get you towed. I knew one hole who parked his motorcycle just to keep a parking spot for himself. When arriving in his car he would move the motorcycle to the side, and parking in that spot. When somebody else parked a car next to his motorcycle on that spot he would...

    Rear Air Vent works???

    I noticed the same when the weather got cold and I needed to use the heater. The front an rear vents work fine when using AC, but nothing coming out of them when turning on the heat, even at max setting. I only see the heated air coming from the vents close to windshield.

    On the Fence after watching Mach E's thermal system nightmare

    And we all learned that the Government found easy ways circumventing the technicalities by putting pressure, incentives, colluding, etc. with private businesses. If anybody doubted that, Twitter files exposed that well. I've never been a fan of Musk, primarily because of him turning Tesla into a...

    When I lived in an apartment building our management used those really nasty stickers they put on windshield so you can't drive because you can't see anything. After spending an hour trying to get it off you lose any desire to illegally park again.

    2023 MME Unintended Acceleration

    In the recall notice it's said: "Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving your vehicle under this safety recall. You should contact your dealer for an appointment to have your vehicle remedied as soon as practicable. You can continue to drive your vehicle."

    Some Dealers Dropping Out of EV Program

    Dealers never had any problems selling cars to the other dealerships. When a car is in demand a dealer may get one for you from another dealer even far away. The problem is that the EVs are not selling now anywhere, so every dealer who ordered them have large inventories sitting on the lots...

    Some Dealers Dropping Out of EV Program

    I don't think Ford would want to run their own dealerships. It's a low profit margin business, and it brings nothing but negative popularity. Unloading all those problems on third party is really advantageous even though Ford would have to give them some 10% discounts for their troubles. Btw, I...

    Surely you can't be 50. I am 50, and don't call me Shirley.

    I don't care if it's "Mid-Life Reward" or "Mid-Life Crisis", the important word is "mid-life". Take that! Social Security Administration. 😃

    Surely you can't be 50. I am 50, and don't call me Shirley.

    When my boss turned 65 he bought a hotrod red muscle car getting a speeding ticket the next day. At the time I thought it was odd for a serious respected guy like him to act like a teen. Now 20 years later I understand 😃

    First time denied charging at dealer

    It's like going to a restaurant you had a dinner yesterday asking them to bring you a glass of water. And when they say no, you remember that the waiter yesterday told you that they would bring you water any time.

    Anyone using 16Amp 240V (3.8kW) home charging?

    You can find several on Amazon, just search for "Power Switch for Dryer and EV". But you will also need an EVSE that allows limiting charging at 24A. Ford mobile charger is drawing 30A and will probably blow the fuse.

    Anyone using 16Amp 240V (3.8kW) home charging?

    You can get 5kW (24A, 220V) from an electric dryer power line. There are switches that have two outlets, automatically switching between them.

    Native nav system turns on, picks random address, starts navigating

    I'm almost always using car built-in navigation. Google maps work fine, I think only once I had a problem with lost signal. I suppose the GPS receiver in the phone is weaker than in the car. But the bigger problem is that BT audio doesn't work at the same time as Android Auto, and I usually...

    Locked Out, 12v battery isn't dead.

    Enable notifications in FordPass when the doors are open. Unless it's broken you will know when they opened the doors.

    Native nav system turns on, picks random address, starts navigating

    Looks like you've got artificial intelligence OTA in your car or may be it's just demons, sometimes they look the same. Just be careful.
