    The Mach-E needs a REAL refresh!

    We use the frunk every week when my wife and I go grocery shopping. Everything we need fits in it, and after pulling in to the garage, everything is up front and close to the door, making unloading a breeze. It's a small feature that we truly appreciate.

    The Mach-E needs a REAL refresh!

    Certainly the lack of eligibility for Federal incentives isn't helping, as leases aren't for everyone.

    The Mach-E needs a REAL refresh!

    Ford, please stop with the 'special editions,' where the core of the car pretty much remains the same. The Mach-E needs a REAL update! In evaluating the EV competition out there, the following are a few observations of mine. With the Mach-E, @Ford Motor Company hit the mark on many aspects...

    2024: America Decides. A New SUPER POLL.

    My unsolicited addendum: Announce and get the Mach-E Inflation Reduction Act-compliant ASAP. Give the car a better ride, please. My wife's XC40 has much better manners when driving over bumpy roads, while the Mach-E bounces over the bumps. This shouldn't be that hard to fix. Offer a...

    Lectron NACS to CCS Adapter

    I got it too, jumped on it and ordered. Maybe it will help to chill out my wife for road trips! 😂

    Tesla Charging Station Adapter

    Ditto on thank you for doing the legwork on this! I haven't needed a Tesla destination adapter until now, so your detailed summary on avoiding the "Wild, Wild West" crop of no-name adapters is greatly appreciated! My Lectron is on its way!

    Illuminated pony Proof of concept.

    No, as another member did so, producing ponies via a Kickstarter.

    Mach-E Inventory Everywhere

    Those factors, plus with interest rates higher, financing is far more expensive than it was a year ago. Market adjustments will happen, as dealer lots fill, and the ADM trend becomes impossible to sustain.

    First roadtrip with Curt hitch and Thule T2 Pro XT bike rack

    I have the Curt hitch, and yes, kick to open works, but it’s much more temperamental, and often takes multiple kicks to get it to open. The good news about the Curt is that I can also open the hatch with my Küat rack mounted and folded up without bikes loaded.

    First roadtrip with Curt hitch and Thule T2 Pro XT bike rack

    I’ve tried both sides, and got it to trigger from the right side of the hitch after about 10 kicks! Not very usable…

    Installed a Draw-Tite Hitch (for bikes), now my "Kick to Open Hatch" is impaired.

    I highly doubt it, as I trust my mechanic 100%...he's an old pro, and quite meticulous. He told me he spent extra time on the cutout, just to get it perfect; so I highly doubt he cut any wires.

    First roadtrip with Curt hitch and Thule T2 Pro XT bike rack

    Mine, after Curt hitch installation, unfortunately does not work any longer. Damn!

    Installed a Draw-Tite Hitch (for bikes), now my "Kick to Open Hatch" is impaired.

    I just had a Curt hitch installed (for my Küat bike rack), and no matter where and how I kick, the tailgate will not open. It worked flawlessly prior to the hitch, and I use it every week when returning to the car from my hockey game, when I'm carrying my equipment and don't have a free hand...

    Snowspeeder gets Grille Wrap & Hatch Blackout Bar

    Mine has not faded or degraded in any way so far. As for the ‘look,’ I had to correct an admirer of my Premium when he asked me, “How do you like your GT?” :)

    Does this sound right?; STO N SHO

    Same with mine...at least if you accidentally hit a concrete parking block with it, the front valance may be spared. It's easy enough to straighten out a bent plate, after all.

    Definitely excruciating. Note that my requesting my dealer reach out to the Ford regional rep is what finally got my car freed from the god-forsaken rail yard!

    National Grid Massachusetts new Charging Program

    I have the same with National Grid with my Ecobee thermostat.

    National Grid Massachusetts new Charging Program

    I think it's necessary, since that's where charging is controlled, rather than via our ESVEs.
