road trip

Defining a road trip as any journey that requires at least one DCFC session. I also added choices for not taking the MME due to DCFC "issues" and using L2 charging at the destination. I voted less than annually since I've only taken the MME out of town twice in 27 months. Once with DCFC and...

Electrifying Journey: Our Cross Country Road Trip As my family and I prepared to move back to California after eight great years in Philadelphia, my wife and I saw this as an opportunity to fulfill a long-standing bucket list item – a cross country road trip. As our 2021 Extended Range AWD...

Road Trip Boston to Upstate NY First road trip with the Mach E CR1 2023 Had Penny (that’s her name) charged up to ~100% when we left Boston. Lots of traffic leaving the city (not surprising for Friday afternoon). We hit our first DC Fast charger in Albany at Electrify America outside Walmart...

I had a work conference in Houston. Usually I fly, but I wanted to push my comfort zone a bit and double my longest EV road trip by driving to the conference. I considered bringing my truck and travel trailer, but I didn't want to burn a bunch of gas and I have this wonderful EV. So, I packed up...

Recorded and uploaded part 2 of my road trip (1000 miles round trip). On the way back I faced a number of EA stations that weren’t working, as well as charging in near or below freezing temperatures. Outside of the main cities in Iowa (bulk of driving spent in this state), the charging...

I took a 2021 Mach-E Extended Range AWD on a road trip from Wisconsin to Nebraska (round trip 1000 miles). I documented my trip and uploaded a video that covers day 1. I charged mainly with electrify america, having mostly successful sessions. Although I didn’t have enough range to make it to...

The overview: In August, we road tripped with our toddler from DC to Massachusetts to Prince Edward Island in “Eva”, our 2022 California Route 1 Mach E. Overall, the trip went really smoothly. We broke the trip up into 3 days each way (on account of the toddler, not the EV). Eva’s range...

A little over 600 miles in total, this was my first “long range” trip with the Mach-E. Bottom line up front, the trip was smooth and largely free of issues. Even in mid-30 degree temperatures, ascending into the Appalachian mountains, and driving 60-70 mph for the most part, I still managed to...

My wife and I had a last minute opportunity to spend time with family over XMas and so we threw everything into a completely charged MME GTPE and hit the road. My garage kept car got dirty. We went from beautiful Palm Springs, CA to Flagstaff, AZ and then on to Albuquerque, NM. We had sunny...

Hello MME owners, Brief review from our roadtrip (AWD + big HV pack) and some 'good to knows'. Left Orange County CA Sunday morning 12/19. Relied on the Ford App to schedule chargers (Electrify America), also downloaded the ABRP app (very useful even in 'free' format) and the Electrify America...

Spent the weekend at my friends place in Chicago. about 30 degrees outside the entire weekend and I left home with a 80% charge. Made it to chicago with about 17% remaining and plugged in for about 24 hours. I left Saturday night with 72% charge and tried to fill up at an EA station at old...

We had a road trip planned and happened to take delivery of our extended range, RWD MME 2 weeks beforehand. Now or never... we dove head first and packed up the car, our 4 year old daughter, 2 year old son, and dog and headed from NJ to St. Louis. For those who like to delve into the data and...

It's been doing a lot of traveling the last couple of months. I have over 5K miles on it already. I have a standard battery. We've found changing at 20% is the most efficient and route plan accordingly. We can go about 2.5-3 hrs, down to about 20% (sometimes a little less) take a bathroom...
