When plugged in to an L2 charger I'm more frequently seeing the message "Charge Paused" instead of "Charge target reached" in the FordPass App. Note: The car charges flawlessly up to it's target max charge. When I return to the car, the charge port ring is flashing amber/orange as if a fault...

About an hour into @OutofSpecKyle 's F150 Lightning review, he was able to get it onto an EA charger and it seems Ford's charge curve strategy has dramatically evolved since MachE's release. It was able to hold nearly 150Kwh into the battery pack nearly up to 70%. Even then, it holds over 100Kwh...

Found this interesting and insightful on Ford's approach to EVs, but most notably... "That new charger-locator interface will eventually come to the Mustang Mach-E, which is due for a major software update later this year that will refresh the entire interface displayed on the screens in the...

Anyone here on the forum equipped with what's needed in order to do a bunch of updates to the car via FDRS and is in the NC/SC area? Would love to get the charging curve improvements done in the next week or two prior to some longer trips, but right now my dealer is crazy backed up with their EV...

Our local weather guy (he’s awesome) posted this in regards to a solar flare that occurred yesterday. I know there’s impacts to the grid in most severe storms, and as a result it’s probably not the best idea to be charging during a geomagnetic storm. Aside from that, I’m curious if any...

Struck a ~18x18 piece of what looked like a underbody cover on a road trip back home yesterday. Popped out a parking sensor, ripped through my PPF, did some serious scoring of the bumper and air skirt insert, and dislodged the splitter from the bumper and wheel arch. It also cut the tire. Here...

Drove 20 miles from a relatives to my hotel with three others on board with me. The winter storm over performed the forecast in Cincinnati, so we were met with 3-4 inches of untreated covered roads the whole way to our hotel. Key Takeaways: - As long as it’s not ice and just snow, the car...

After doing a short 200 mile round trip drive to the Boone/Blowing Rock area, we plunged in and took our Mach E GT from Charlotte all the way to Cincinnati, OH and back for New Years. The trip was my wife and I and a moderate amount of stuff. A pretty normal load for this type of 4 day trip...

I’ll be attending Charlotte Cars & Coffee the morning of 1/8 with my Mach E GT. Any other Mach E’s going to be attending?

I've finally put 500 miles on my new Mach E and the most recent 200 miles were a round trip from Charlotte up into the NC Mountains for Christmas. To track efficiency and get a sense of the car, I broke the trip into three segments that are fairly distinct in their profiles. Segment 1...

I’m waiting on my GT Order to come in through Town & Country Ford here in Charlotte. I’ve been working with Chris, and he let me know they had a canceled order come available if I wanted to cut the line. My wife and I went down there this evening to test drive the GT and see if it was the car...

Hey y’all, I placed a Mach E GT order today (Dark Matter Grey, CoPilot360 + Glass Roof options) with Town and Country Ford off Independence here in CLT. Any Charlotte owners here? What dealer did you go with and how have your experiences been? I’m hoping to take possession of the car in Late...
