    Foot to open rear hatch.

    My favorite random gate opening was when the wife and I were walking to the car from the grocery store. We both had our hands occupied with bags and when we were about 40ft from the car, up went the gate. It was awesome and disappointing at the same time.

    Your next EV

    I am strongly considering the Blazer SS when it comes out. Thought about trading in the Buick for it, but then I'd lose my 'long range' driving vehicle. I don't drive far often but when I do I have no desire to stop for more than 5-10 minutes. So I think it will a while before I ever (if...

    Per Study, ICE fueling costs fall below price of EV charging

    This is what I show friends that ask me about cost. For my ICE cars, the average cost per mile has been 15 cents per mile, spiking up as high as 30 cents per mile when gas is $4.50 and my MPG is low (city driving). After 13 months, the Mach E has saved me around $2000 in 'fuel' costs. I do...

    FordPass 4.23.2 released for iOS

    I also had this problem (and I was embarrassed when I figured it out). On the profile setup screen, there is an option to link Fordpass to PAAK. Somehow, I missed that during initial setup (over a year ago). So for the past year, both the wife and I would get the guest profile whenever we...

    Another Damaged Liftgate! Ford should be embarrassed...

    This has happened to me 3 times so far since Jan 03... Once in the garage a few weeks after purchase (within 2 seconds of unplugging the car). The second time happened while I was mowing lawn 3 months later (car outside and no FOB or phone nearby). The Ford Rep here opened a ticket for me and...

    Door hinge covers | Update: striker plate covers

    Sorry Ben, I work for an auto manufacturer (non Ford), so I get unnecessarily flustered when I see parts called out incorrectly. Oddly enough, even that Amazon posting doesn't call it what it is, so I half wonder if the guys selling these parts are even remotely car folks. LOL

    Door hinge covers | Update: striker plate covers

    I came here to see a door hinge cover and instead was treated to something completely unrelated to a door hinge. This is a striker plate cover, not a door hinge cover.

    Walk away lock

    So you guys are leaving a fob, in foil, in your car at all times? Can I get your address please? :cool:

    Louisiana Ev Tax

    I paid 213.70 in EV tax here in Georgia. I'd expect every state to do the same.

    Are you kidding me?

    So this morning, I had my second occurence of the mysterious lift gate anomaly. I was mowing the lawn and was about 20ft away from the car when up went the lift gate all on its own. I checked my phone in my pocket, it was locked and when I unlocked the phone I confirmed that the FordPass app...

    What did you do with your old ride?

    I parked mine out on the street! J/K It (the Buick) sits in the driveway, the Mustangs get to rest in the garage.

    Where's my range Ford?

    I think it is worth mentioning (I apologize if someone has already stated this) that even repeating your test at 60mph is still going to be disappointing (especially in Whisper Mode) as you would be getting minimal regenerative energy back from braking. Personally I think you have the data you...

    So when is Blue Cruise not Blue Cruise?

    Clearly I have something mixed up or imaging what is happening as I completely agree that it should have no affect. I'll do some controlled tests later, as the wife has the Mach-E at work and I dropped off the Buick for some warranty work this morning.

    So when is Blue Cruise not Blue Cruise?

    It works the same way in my Buick Regal... beeping in line at the drive thru? turn off lane centering and it stops beeping. Magical

    So when is Blue Cruise not Blue Cruise?

    Oddly enough, I thought that was the purpose of the button (ha). It comes in handy, for example, when in a drive through (grabbing a burger), the car beeps if I am too close to the wall. Press the button and away goes the warnings.

    So when is Blue Cruise not Blue Cruise?

    Correct, I should clarify, it's lane centering and not lane keep as I misstated. Lane centering needs to be on (in both spots) in order for BC to work seamlessly. I had it turned off on the steering wheel as the parking assist warnings go bonkers when I pull in the garage with it on, when it...
