I agree with @AZBill . The other factor to consider is where you will charge and at what level. With a long commute, you will benefit greatly from a Level 2 charger at home or at work so that you can start your drive comfortable that you have plenty of range.
Lastly, the A/C does a good job...
Just to add a couple more points... I did my MME test drive at Camelback because it's the most convenient dealer to me. They tried to sell me one they had incoming with ADM, but I was planning to order and use X-plan to buy. Plus, I'm not a fan of the way BH-owned dealerships are run, so I...
I have joined the SmartRewards program through APS. It's a small incentive, but I'm hopeful that it will be used to improve APS's understanding of EV owner's electricity needs so they can provide the services we need. As someone else posted, there were some technical issues for the MME tracking...
One area that the tech needs some work... the smart adaptive cruise control often picked the wrong speed limit while cruising and either increased or decreased my speed, usually by 10 mph, sometimes by 15mph, and once from 65 all the way down to 35. When you're cruising along at 78 mph and...
Overall, it's a good looking car built on incredible tech. The one I saw was pre-production, with camouflaged body, extra wheels in the back seat, and loose wires hanging out of the dash, so not exactly the look of a sleek new luxury sedan :cool: . One of these days I'll pay a visit to the local...

This past week my family took a trip from Phoenix to northern California (Bay Area). It’s approximately 745 miles each way, so around 1800 miles with all the stops factored in. Here are my observations:
Driving the Car
I really enjoy driving the MME, especially around...
Important to note that most dealers do not list the customer-ordered cars on the web. San Tan and Chapman are the two most notable exceptions in the valley. This gives the false impression that they are selling dozens more MMEs than other dealers.
Also, I did not order with San Tan because the...
I agree that the door pockets on the MME are not very useful. In other cars, I have been able to use them to hold a water bottle towards the front and papers (large envelopes or file folders) in the wider area since there is really no other place that those things can be held securely within...
Took mine home 4 weeks ago. There were two other Space White MMEs at the dealer, being delivered the same day (one GT PE and one GT). Similar to others in this thread, I have not seen another MME since leaving the dealer on Nov 4.
Honestly, the sales rep was fine, aside from having to slow-walk all the paperwork and Ford Options when we went to pick up the car. The survey was for the dealership experience, not just for the sales rep, and I made it clear in my survey response that my issues were with the finance managers...
Dealers will always register the vehicle for one year at the time of purchase. When you reach the renewal period, you will have the choice of renewing for 1 or 2 years. I have never seen an option to renew for 5 years, though maybe that exists for Alt-Fuel (i.e., BEVs). Also, since the annual...
If this is truly a national promotion, I will try to take advantage of it. I just wish I had known before I submitted my survey... Here's the response from my sales rep:
"I received a two star survey, that survey personally effects my ability at the dealership. While I appreciated working with...
Last night, finally brought it home! Love driving it, though it will take some time to figure out what settings I prefer. Plugged it in on the 110V outlet and got about 30 miles added (13kWh) overnight. I was also able to charge both my cars at the same time (both on 110V) with no issues.
The...
This should be my last day of being grumpy. The car arrived at the dealer a couple hours after the above post. It arrived with 4 other MMEs on the same transport. We had tickets to a show, but decided to try to close the deal and take our beautiful new MME home before the show. When we arrived...
I received the "Complete your purchase" e-mail from Ford this morning, so I reached out to the dealer. They don't have the car yet and said it's supposed to be transported from Ashfork AZ and could arrive any day/time. The train from Winslow to Ashfork (108 miles) took 5 days, but no telling how...
I'm right there with you, even though my order date was later. Is there really no record of a transfer to Argentine Ramp on Palsapp for your car?
Maybe our MMEs will be delivered to Earnhardt on the same truck (today? tomorrow? next week?)
Last update from the dealer for me, it was in Winslow...
The only way to find out any details between the Kansas City transfer on Palsapp and delivery to your dealer is to ask the dealer for the latest status. Some dealers are more helpful than others. If they tell you the railcar number, then you can use that information to track the progress of the...
