    "iTs NoT a MuStAnG!"

    A guy on the freeway rolled down his window, stuck out his thumb, and gave me the thumbs-down. It was hilarious. That’s the only hate I’ve gotten. Lots of positive attention. I guess I’ve been lucky.

    Software update speculation and wish list.

    More voice commands. “Turn on recirculate” would be nice.

    That’s been my experience also.

    Guess not.

    Wrong Battery Pack?

    Lately a 100% charge gets me about 300 miles, which is what Ford estimates. I have been driving in heavy L.A. traffic. Have you tried driving somewhere that has more traffic? Maybe the problem is that you don’t have enough traffic where you live. ?

    Wireless CarPlay and the "hot" phone

    I have had my phone shut down due to overheating while on the wireless charging pad during a longer trip. It seems to be a combination of Apple CarPlay and wireless charging. If I leave my phone on the charging pad but disable Apple CarPlay, the phone gets warm but doesn’t overheat. Likewise, if...

    iOS 14.5 & Wireless CarPlay

    Has anyone had any connectivity issues with wireless CarPlay after updating to iOS 14.5? The wireless connection keeps dropping, but I am able to connect using the USB cable. Any tips?

    Fast Charging at Electrify America: Lessons learned

    I agree. They seem to have the most consistent charging speeds at their chargers.

    Fast Charging at Electrify America: Lessons learned

    I don’t know what incentive Electrify America would have to throttle its chargers, since EA bills by the kilowatt hour. But I have often wondered if EVgo throttles its machines, especially since it seems they never charge the vehicle at the rate advertised on the machine and because they bill by...

    Ford Mach-E - Mustang or Mediocre? | In Depth (Now You Know)

    Me too. It’s pretty hard to miss.

    Ford Mach-E - Mustang or Mediocre? | In Depth (Now You Know)

    Both vehicles have so much to offer. Too bad they felt the need to unfairly trash the MME. If they had done their homework it might be a different thing, but both vehicles are fantastic.

    Ford Mach-E - Mustang or Mediocre? | In Depth (Now You Know)

    I couldn’t agree more. They didn’t even bother to make a half attempt to learn anything about the vehicle. Their minds were made up before they started filming.

    My speedometer is broken...

    I drive like a sweet little old lady and I am finding myself having to watch the speedometer constantly because it creeps up on you! Quietly.

    Three days of ownership and only two gripes

    Not a good idea to disable these important safety features. Blind people will have no idea that you are approaching them if the car is silent. And of course, if you do hit someone, you will probably get sued. And lose. And probably have to pay punitive damages. Which aren’t covered by insurance.

    Any early adopters with buyer remorse?

    Sync 4, not sink for.

    Any early adopters with buyer remorse?

    Take this to your dealer. I don’t have any of the issues with CarPlay, the reverse camera, sink for, or the noise from the instrument panel. there is a way to turn off the blue lights and a way to open the liftgate from inside the vehicle. Your dealer can show you how.

    Any early adopters with buyer remorse?

    I was looking at the Model Y as well. For me, it was also too spartan. No buttons. Everything is handled through the giant display. This would be OK if the Tesla had a robust set of voice commands, but it doesn’t. You can’t even control the radio with voice commands on the Tesla. And there’s no...
