    About had it with poor CS charging infrastructure, when/how do we get the Tesla adapter?

    I can’t believe that we can run massive amounts of electricity under every ocean on the planet, power millions of servers and GPUs, power every single light standard and highway light and power hundreds of millions of large appliances in homes all without failure but companies cannot keep a...

    Ford suggests upcoming Performance Upgrade

    Yup. Says anything older than a 2024 ain't getting squat.

    Ford suggests upcoming Performance Upgrade

    I wonder if this upgrade can be had by older models? Not sure that is something that I would pay for, but I guess it depends how much of a performance upgrade we're talking about.

    Ford suggests upcoming Performance Upgrade

    Didn't tesla offer an OTA performance upgrade for a one time fee? Likely be inline with that.

    $50K to replace 2017 Ionic battery

    I understand my approach may not be for everyone, but $20k (even if that was the cost for a complete new battery in 10 years) is likely $20k cheaper than buying a new car. Granted some may want the new tech and features, understandably. I’ll see what’s out there if and when it happens.

    Recall Information: High Voltage Battery Junction Box (23S56)

    I just had my HVBJB replaced. Don't baby the car, enjoy it. Yes, it took a month to get the part, installation was only a day, and it sucked not having the car, but I bought the MME because of the performance and I'm going to continue to use it as such. If another HVBJB goes, it will still be...

    $50K to replace 2017 Ionic battery

    0.1% chance? Where did that stat come from. I would certainly put a new battery in if that extends my car by another 200,000 miles since there are much less moving parts in an EV. We can;t compare an engine replacement in an ICE because not only may that fail, but there is a whole bunch of other...

    $50K to replace 2017 Ionic battery

    And what will the technology be in 10 years, what advancements? And at what cost? I highly, highly doubt that the cost of a new battery for a Mach E in 10 years will be anywhere close to what it may be right now. As technology advances, the costs go down. I live in a Region where snow rarely...

    Why is Everyone Crapping on the Mach-E?

    My MME was in the shop for a month getting the HVBJB replaced and I was given a new Kona (non-EV). And let me tell you. I could not wait to get the Mach E back. Wow... I forgot how spoiled I was.

    Axle clunk

    While my car was in getting the HVBJB replaced, I had mentioned (three times now, but whos counting) that my front right wheel continued to creeeeeeak when turning to the right. Moving, stopped, it remained. They ended up replacing the entire strut assembly as they couldn't pin point the exact...

    After your current MME, What is your next EV?

    Depends if Bitcoin reaches my target price. If that is the case, off to get a Porsche Taycan.

    Replaced the HVBJB - yesterday HVBJB broke

    I don't know I'd want that. I'm 14 days waiting for repair. If I have to do this every two years I'm going to sell the car. The less my car is hoisted and being worked on the better. Always seems to be mysterious scratches when I get cars back from the dealer.

    Recall Information: High Voltage Battery Junction Box (23S56)

    My HVBJB went two days after Ford announced the upcoming recall. I'm getting an "old" part installed. They do not and cannot do any recall work on the HVBJB. Mine is covered under my standard warranty. Hopefully this is the HVBJB being put into the new models and the recall will only be...

    GTPE Pirelli's with 12k worth how much?

    Likely not much at all as that's about half life of those tires on average. I replaced mine at 27,000km and they were done, done. I will never go back to a summer only tire.

    Fondmetal rims

    This was the information I came for. Thanks for that.

    Fondmetal rims

    Are they rated for the weight of the vehicle? Driving an EV that heavy you can't just put on any wheel with the correct bolt pattern. Anyway. I do love the look of them so hopefully they are rated for the Mach-E.
