Hi everyone. My car ceased charging at 3:40 in the morning had an electrify America charging station. A loud pop preceded the stop of the charging. I’m now waiting for roadside assistance to take the car to the nearest Ford dealer who can do electric service. I wonder if there’s a way to rate...
Mandy Patinkin (The Princess Bride, Homeland, Criminal Minds) just posted a TikTok showing his departure for a long road trip with his dog in his Mach-E. Hopefully, he’ll share his experiences with us along the way.

Must admit to being a little anxious before taking off on our recent first road trip in a 2023 MME CR1 EAWD, driving round trip from Petaluma, Calif. (north of San Francisco), to Eugene, Ore. With no home charger at the time, I charged it to 80% the day before departure at an EA 150kw charger at...
Hello MME owners,
Brief review from our roadtrip (AWD + big HV pack) and some 'good to knows'.

Please excuse the verboseness of this post and feel free to skip down to the end to see my conclusions and perceptions of the vehicle. Figured since I have the ability to work from anywhere I’d do a road trip and test out my range...
First road trip with MachE.
”Autopilot” excellent even with rain with some pretty sketchy lane markings. Really took some of the burden out of the trip.
Charging info -
There is a free charger at Alliant Energy headquarters near Madison. It’s on the Greenlots network but didn’t “just work”...
