Does this Motor Manufacturer produce EV motors for other Automotive Manufacturer? Basically I’m curious if a GM, Ford and a Chrysler really have Electric Motors that are specifically designed and built for there specific EV?
Nearly every day I can read about all of the different EV Batteries and about there range. But you never really hear much about the actual motors! Does each Manufacturer of all of these different EVs Develop and build there own motor? I find it hard to believe that that there are really very...
This morning when I got into the MME everything appeared just fine, the car started perfect and I could see the camera as I backed out of the garage. When I went to put the car in drive I couldn’t help but to notice that the center display (above the console) was totally black and totally...
My wife really pulled a great early April Fools Day prank on me today. This evening after I pulled our MME into the garage the car went a little crazy! First thing that happened as I was walking away from the car the horn started beeping. What the hell? So I went over to inspect the car, trying...
Akgrampy, after living in your home state for over 30 years I am very aware of what you folks pay for your utilities! One of my sons in Alaska has solar on his home and we compare our production regularly. Much to my surprise, over the year our production is fairly close. I would think that...
Electricity rates in this part of the country are some of the lowest in the USA. But I still think that going green as much as possible is the correct thing to do, for every kilo watt that we produce it’s that much more water that doesn’t go over the dam. I like to think of it as “Banking...
With the price of fuel going up so rapidly, it’s just a matter of hours before our electricity rates take a huge hit. When we built our house several years ago we had anticipated owning an EV, so we installed a 6KW solar panel system. The system has far exceeded our expectation! So it seemed...
We have encountered this exact same situation! Our problems started with very erratic operation with the PAAK, mine hardly worked at all and my wife’s PAAK continued to degrade. We lost all contact with the Ford Pass system, receiving no updates or control with charging. Now we are at the point...
I know that the MME has a switch for parking assist as well as some settings on the display. Is this only a visual assist or does this thing actually park the car for you? Sorry guys for asking such a silly question but some times all of this new high tech is a little bit over whelming to an Old...
Over the past couple of decades we’ve all had plastic/Lexan lense covers over our head lights. It seems that without fail they all turn milky looking and cease functioning as well as originally designed! Is there any kind of protective covering or UV shield that can be applied to provide a...
I haven’t been very excited about the heating system in our MME. One of the only issues I have with the car! I have been highly discouraging my son from purchasing a Lightning for this very reason, he’s in Alaska so this is serious stuff. But being a true Alaskan he has a solution for this. If...
OK, I realize that it’s an AWD vehicle and I’VW got over thirty years of driving in Alaska under my belt. Driving in real winter conditions is something I know how to do! Currently I live in the PNW where generally we have rainy wet conditions. We’ve only owned our MME for a couple of months so...

We’ve got a MME and absolutely love it, even though there are a few oddities. Heat is high on my list of annoying features. Other than that it is awesome. My son who lives in Alaska has his mind set on purchasing a Ford Lightning, can’t say that I’m encouraging him on this purchase mainly due to...
