Rolling resistance is significantly better than the stock Pirellis. I guess this is to be expected, moving from a summer tire to an all-season, but for me the trade-off is negligible. I love how these handle and roll.

I love them! Every time I start driving the car when my wife is with me I tell her, "Did I tell you how much I love these tires?" Drives her nuts... But seriously, they are great, couldn't be happier, I think they are quiet, smooth ride, and lots of grip when you need it, in rain anyway. I live...

All Season - I'd say the noise is perhaps a tad more than the Pirellis. My wife noticed, me, not so much. Rolling resistance is much lower, I have to recalibrate my 1-pedal braking, I keep running into intersections, lol.

Replaced the factory GTPE Pirelli rubber at 15,400 miles with these new Continental ControlContact Sport SRS+ (245/45 R20 103Y XL BSW). Really enjoying the nice ride. One of the Pirellis had a slow leak and the wear on all four was into the yellow. Seemed a bit early to replace, but feel very...

Do you know the root cause of the initial problem that required you to pull over and be towed?

Love the build - congrats, nice grab!

What a flawed review. Somebody just mailed this in. Yes, the Mach-E rides and handles better, and its braking is superb, but the Tesla is the better all-around choice. 1. It gets going incredibly quickly, (but not as quickly as Mach-e) 2. has no qualms about reaching speed, (only superior on a...

Mach-E is popular is Germany, well, at least with this German. Nice comparison video...

Ok, cleaned up and final. Note first charge from dealer not included, so last charge to top up to 90% is included. Charged Charged Charging Charge Miles Useable Kwh Charge Spd Charge Spd kWh KWh Cost Cost From To Time Added Added Battery Added Miles / Hour kWh / hour Loss Rate Used $/KWh $$...

I had to calculate it based on %added, charged to, and useable battery size Wow!! Oh my gosh. 'dems crazy prices...

I get your point, but I would also have to include the cost of the very first charge. I did not include the initial charge from the dealer. So, I had to include my last charge to get it to 90%. Assuming the dealer charged to 90%, then it should be about right, a wash, no? And if it is, then...

Aha, so in stead on *(1+.12) i did /(1-.12) - gotcha. Cum Cum Charge Charged Useable Kwh kWh KWh Cost Cost KWh Cost Added To Battery Added Loss Rate Used $/KWh $$ Used $$ 17% 74% 88 50.16 12% 57.00 $0.116 $6.61 57.00 $6.61 54% 100% 88 40.48 12% 46.00 $0.116 $5.34...

Ok, got my geek on and made a spreadsheet. Seem about right? Cum Cum Charge Charged Useable Kwh kWh KWh Cost Cost KWh Cost Added To Battery Added Loss Rate Used $/KWh $$ Used $$ 17% 74% 88 50.16 12% 56.18 $0.116 $6.52 56.18 $6.52 54% 100% 88 40.48 12% 45.34 $0.116...

Great point - and I don't waste money (or my wife rather) on damn lottery tickets and candy for the kids, and other convenience store items. It all adds up... :)

Re the power draw from the house (source), does the car know this? I guess not. The EVSE should know it, or seems like it could at least know it. I guess this kind of data is the value-add of some of the higher end EVSEs.

Well, I live outside of Houston, so electricity is pretty cheap - well, it was until the deep freeze last February completely blew the grid and power markets in Texas... It's still below the national average here, but getting more expensive, the consumers will have to pay for that debacle...

Super helpful, thank you!

Am i computing this correctly? Charging log says 58% charged. I charge to 90%, so, 88kWh battery * .9 *.58 = 45.92 kWh added That part is about right, eh. Now, since I added ~46 kWh, does that mean I drew ~46 KWh from my house power, is is 1 to 1? If so, then @ 11.6 cents per hour, this...

Well Car & Driver awarded the Mach-e their EV of the Year award. and the poll at the end has the Mach-e ahead, 60/40, in spite of the considerably negative review, so... these guys just hate that it's badged a Mustang and a GT. I get it. Imagine if they called it the FordEcoSport GT instead...

Couldn't find anything online about it, so hey, thanks for the heads up. Is that in Houston? I'll have to check around here, I am up in The Woodlands.
