    Okay, those CarPlay problems are real

    Check to see if your iPhone is able to connect to the wireless projection SSID. I have found that when carplay doesn't want to connect most times the wireless projection SSID is being rejected either by the phone or the car. Usually I have to reboot both to get it working again.

    Taxes and tax incentive

    All that is needed for the Federal tax credit is your VIN. You should keep a copy of your purchase contract incase you get audited in the future. California does not have a tax credit, but there is a rebate available through the CVRP for that you will need to submit a copy of your purchase...

    Did you know there's a tax credit for installing a charger and/or wiring?

    Since the max credit is $1,000 can it be split over multiple years? For example, I had a Nema 14-50 outlet installed in 2022 $950 x 30% = $285 credit on my 2022 taxes. If I purchase an EVSE in 2023 and install it can claim another credit next year when I file?

    Phone As Key - Does anyone's work consistently?

    Works great for me. I have had the car for just over a month now. I carried a key for about the 1st week, but since then it's worked great. Every so often I do have to open the app for the car to recognize it, maybe once a week. Other than that no issues.

    Active Park Assist - when?

    Here's my take on this. Active Park assist was completely dropped from 2023 MY. I doubt we would see anything in the next year. If Active Park assist returns to 2024 MY, then Ford may roll out a package to install for those with a prep kit. I doubt it will be $325, the labor alone to install...

    Priority Code is no longer valid once you receive a build date. The Plant will not see your priority code. It is only relevant within your dealers unschedule order queue.

    Coming by "convoy"?

    All it means is that your car will be loaded on a convoy truck and the plant and transported to another rail yard to be placed in a rail car. Seems alot of So Cal cars leave the plant via convoy.

    2023 Mach E delivery time ? Also did anyone who is getting upgraded to 2023 paying the price differences

    Also at least in the US the private offer to offset the MY price increase are for 2022 orders that got converted to 2023 orders. If you dealer never put in a 2022 order for you then i doubt you would qualify for any private offer.
