  1. Slowest Selling EV In US - Mach E

    First of all winter gas is ALWAYS cheaper than summer gas. The reason is traveling. This is the WHY gas prices increase on holidays. What is hurting EV sales is lack of infrastructure for charging. Until Tesla opens up there will be issues.
  2. Charge Station Fault. No fix in sight

    Charge station fault is NOT the car but the charger. I stopped using EA because it happened regularly. EA gives out FREE electricity to nearly EVERY manufacturer. As such they are being used 24/7. EA is NOT spending the money on upgrading or repair. As such after so many uses 24/7 the charger...
  3. Charging outside the garage

    I have been charging in my driveway since February 2021. No harm to anything. What you will experience is lower total charge below 45 degrees and also above 105. In between is factory settings. I charge to 100% for two years daily and have ZERO degradation
  4. Apple Maps

    When you do Apple car play does that make it so that you cannot use the other features of Sync like radio etc???
  5. Long Term Review - Are you still happy??

    A LOT. I absolutely LOVE road trips. My longest one day drive was 13 hours straight from Bakersfield CA to Tucson AZ. My friend and I had a blast. We talked. We ate when we charged. It was relaxing. Once you leave Cali chargers are easy to get. He has an ICE car and he was shocked by the...
  6. Long Term Review - Are you still happy??

    2 years 91,000 miles. We have 2. LOVE my cars. I go by the saying once you go electric you never go back. I love long drives. I have driven from SoCal to Houston /Seattle and Tucson. I will be a LOT happier when Tesla is available so I can drop EA. EA gives away too much free charging and makes...
  7. ‘21 vs ‘23

    Ford bought my 21 FE back and I bought a 23 GT instead. I have to say that I like the 23 far better than the 21. I will also say that the trade in price on your 21 is crap. Would i do it?? Yes. I plan on trading in my wife's 21 in about a year or so. I am waiting for the tesla port addition. The...
  8. Highest Mileage on a BEV?

    I have two MME. my wife's car was two years old in September. she charges to 100% EVERY night. ZERO degradation. Put all the science crap away and just enjoy the car. her 2021 has 91,000 miles. My 2023 GT has 39,000. She charges to 100% EVERY day. The only factor of concern is temperature. below...
  9. Highway 93N Alberta

    Geez that is slow but slow is better than zero. Thanks
  10. Rare (around here) EV spottings

    Well I am in Bakersfield California. 90 minutes north of LA. Ev are EVERY 5th car. MME/tesla/hyundai/Kias everywhere. In LA the rates of EV skyrocketed. On the I-5 trip to LA we used to only see 1 transport of Tesla. Now 6-8 is not unusual. Hertz has teslas so if my car is in the shop I rent one...
  11. Highway 93N Alberta

    I am looking at driving from SoCal to abbotsford for AHL hockey. Do I need to be concerned. I looked at the drive and found EA Canada out of Vancouver and then you go north and then south to get there. Are there other fast chargers besides EA Canada in that area??
  12. Slow charge 350kw hyper fast electrify america

    EA SUCKS!!! When we got our two MME first editions in 2021 EA was AWESOME. Now they give away FREE energy to EVERY manufacturer. As such they will charge to 100% at 7 KW just because it is free. When all of the WORKING chargers which may be few are being used the charge rate decreases. This is...
  13. Self tire rotation

    MANYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TIMES.....SOMETIMES TWO TIRES AT ONCE. On one occasion my Ford fusion at the time came with cheap tires form ford. So when i bought the warranty they charged me the $25.00 but upgraded the tires to a much BETTER more expensive tire and brand. When i had to replace 2 tires I...
  14. Self tire rotation

    If Tire Rack services them then the warranty should be the same but I would inquire to make sure. I only deal with American Tire
  15. Self tire rotation

    I would contact Tire Rack and ask them......honest it is THE best company to deal with. NEVER a hassle. In fact one time I took my car into the local ford dealer because I was leaving town the very next day for service and they somehow ruined my tire but the only thing they had in stock since I...
  16. Self tire rotation

    NOT TRUE. American tire takes zero DEPRECIATION until the tire hits a tread depth of 3 or 4 millimeters. Many times when i have gotten a nail in the side wall they just give me a new tire. One time I had 20,000 miles on my tire and got a brand new one but I had to pay the $25.00 since I had to...
  17. Self tire rotation

    Well maybe this is just me. I spent $25 per tire for a lifetime warranty with American Tire. With that comes FREE BALANCING AND TIRE ROTATION for the LIFE of my tires plus any kind of road hazard with ZERO depreciation. For $100 it is well worth it. I do it EVERY 5000 miles or if I hit a...
  18. Increase range on GT for long trips

    I have a 23 GT and I drive from Bakersfield up the mountain and down to Burbank. Roughly 100 miles in total. I go from roughly 300 feet above sea level to 4400 and then back down to less than 300 in Burbank. At 78 mph and heat at 115 here in Bako and 100 in Burbank during the day with the air on...
  19. Trade in Value

    ford bought back my 2021 first edition. My wife has a 2021 AWD premium. We paid $58.000. I did the value and it is worth $35,000. I asked my dealer who I have an awesome relationship with and he made sense. He said what is an iPhone worth after the new model comes out?? It decreases drastically...
  20. Sticker Price vs. Sales Order Price

    I think it depends on your relationship with the dealer. I know when I ordered mine and in came in lower they gave me the lower rate. Everything honestly is kind of up to the dealer. When you order the car it tells you the price. If the price is raised after the fact they are supposed to go by...
