    Washington Surprise SC rates.

    A few weeks ago I used the Tesla Magic Dock in Glendale, AZ and it was $0.39/kWh while all the EA and EVgo chargers on the trip were between $0.43 and $0.49/kWh. So I had the same experience that the Tesla SC was less expensive. It was equally as fast as the other chargers.

    Tesla Supercharger network now up to 66 locations with Magic Dock (4/17/24)

    Agreed. The second time I tried it (after failing because I didn't hold, then push up) all I needed to do was hold the button down on the handle and push up until I heard a click, and then the adapter comes out. I did not even need to identify the stall number. This was at the MD in Glendale.

    San Diego Police have the Mach-E!

    Well, the San Diego Police Parking Enforcement are now driving Mach-Es. The friendly police officer said that since December the Parking Enforcement Division has been replacing their Chevy Bolts with Mach-Es. She likes them much better. In fact, she said that she likes them so much that she is...

    Day Trip from San Diego to Anza Borrego and Back to See "Super Bloom"

    There are no chargers in Anza Borrego so it is nice that there are some in Ramona. Did you stop at Dudley's Bakery, across the parking lot from the Julian Pie Store? It's one of the best bakeries in San Diego.

    Day Trip from San Diego to Anza Borrego and Back to See "Super Bloom"

    Sorry, no I didn't. But the temperature was only that low for a short time as we crested the mountain, so it might not have made a big difference.

    Received First Part of Rewards for Completing Recall 23S56 for HVJB

    You have another really disappointing story about getting this recall performed. There are several reports of the recall going well, like for me, but more stories like yours where it takes an inordinate amount of time. Some say that this forum is heavily tilted to negative posts because that...

    Day Trip from San Diego to Anza Borrego and Back to See "Super Bloom"

    The heavier than average rains this winter and spring in Southern California reached the Anza Borrego Desert, and resulted in what is called here a "Super Bloom" in the desert. In the 30 or so years I have been around San Diego, there have been about 2 blooms per decade. Each is unique...

    Received First Part of Rewards for Completing Recall 23S56 for HVJB

    I didn't see this posted yet. On March 15, 2024 at 12:52 AM 30,000 Ford Pass Rewards points were posted to my account for the Mustang MachE Appreciation Award. My dealer must have done a good job with the paperwork for Ford showing the completion of the 23S56 recall on my car on 1/25/24. I did...

    Enjoyable 3000 mile trip

    I was specifically measuring the driving efficiency on the highway, with no city traffic included.

    Enjoyable 3000 mile trip

    That's impressive that your GTPE gets 2.7 mi/kwh on the highway at 75 mph. I can get about 2.5 mi/kwh when I drive under 70 mph on the highway, and only 2.2 mi/kwh at 75-80 mph. I just took some long drives and measured the efficiency carefully.

    Blue Cruise stopped working (Fixed!}

    Sorry, I don't have any other suggestion. Perhaps it's time to call the service center at your dealer.

    Plug and charge is awesome

    I have not taken many road trips in my Mach-E, but I recently took a round trip from San Diego to Phoenix and Plug and Charge worked flawlessly with several Electrify America and EVgo stations, as well as the Tesla Magic Dock in Glendale. The charging experience was easy and all the receipts...

    Finally personally saw the difference between battery preconditioning and no battery preconditioning

    I didn’t directly compare charging with and without preconditioning, but I did precondition the car on this trip using Ford navigation to get to the EA charger in Yuma and it was the first time I saw a peak charge rate of 162 kW.

    Using FordPass at Tesla Magic Dock in Phoenix

    Yes, the adapters are built into the system. As I described above, if you simply pull the plug from the holder the adapter is left behind and a Tesla plug is available. If you push the button on the handle for a couple seconds and push up until you hear a click and then pull down, the adapter...

    Using FordPass at Tesla Magic Dock in Phoenix

    No. The site showed up as usable for non-Teslas on the Tesla app when I checked from San Diego. When I got to Phoenix I was using the Ford navigation in the car and I searched for nearby chargers. Along with EVgo and EA the Tesla Magic Dock station showed up. When I got there the Ford navigation...

    Using FordPass at Tesla Magic Dock in Phoenix

    I wanted to see how easy it was to charge at a Tesla Magic Dock using the Ford app. It worked pretty well! The Magic Dock appeared as an available charging station on the Ford Navigation screen. When I arrived there were 12 of 16 stations available. I could drive up to one and the charging cord...

    Blue Cruise stopped working (Fixed!}

    Has Blue Cruise ever worked for you? Did you sign up for it when you got your car 2 weeks ago? If you do have Blue Cruise did it ever work? Did you try pushing the “lane centering “ button on the left side of the steering wheel ? Unfortunately I don’t see an image on the dash that shows if...

    Blue Cruise stopped working (Fixed!}

    In my case the blue bubble around the car did not show up, just a blue half-circle line at the front of the car.
