I’d be very surprised if there’s not another price drop or another low interest offer after tomorrow.

I like the idea of the same color but getting 2 different style vinyl stripes would be fun. Same but different. As you can see from my Avatar, both my Mustangs are red!!

Thanks to everyone that contributed to my original post regarding the comparison to my Jeep Grand Cherokee.

My wife and I ended up getting a 2023 GT Grabber Blue 2 weeks ago and got the 0% financing for 60 months. The short review is...we love it. It is the best car either of us have owned and absolutely love it. Having a 48 amp home charger is key and everything has went just fine. The dog fits just fine in the hatch area and can even stand on all 4s without bumping her head and she has ample room. The speed of this thing is unreal with the instant torque and it is a joy to drive. The technology has been great, phone as a key has worked flawlessly for both of us (iPhone 12 Pro and 13 mini) and we've had no freezing issues or PaaK issues that so many have mentioned. Overall, we only have 2 gripes about the car.

  1. No ventilated seats...I mean, really?
  2. The suspension is rough on these pothole-filled PA roads.

Everyone that has seen the car has loved it and even people that told us before to not buy it because it's electric and too small have loved it. My dad actually is going out tonight to lease a 23 after seeing mine (he was a naysayer originally too).

Now to the "Are we crazy?" part. My wife has decided she loves the car much more than her Dodge Charger and wants to get her own Mach-E. 0% ends tomorrow and we re seriously considering getting a 2nd GT. We both like Grabber Blue but having 2 of the same color and car seems weird, so I was looking at a Cyber Orange GT or Vapor Blue GT for myself and the wife can have the Grabber Blue. There is a dealer by us that has a Grabber Blue GTPE and we are intrigued in the MagneRide and if it will be smoother on our crappy roads, but that leaves us with 2 of the same color...Anyways, are we crazy? Does anyone else have 2 Mach-Es?

We have the GTPE and bought it specially for magnaride, brembo and seats. Our daughters 2012 challenger srt8 392 has brembos and sports seats and its is a dream trip car. The magnaride tech has been on corvettes for years and dampens road imperfections for a very comfortable roadtrip. My wife bought a 2023 model y AWD long range Y with 20 rims and is getting 300 miles on pa turnpike at 65mph cruising. Its really great on trips as a supercharger is located everywhere and gives 140 miles in 15 minutes. We live in Valencia PA and roads here rt 8 and 228 are newly paved and
huge projects being completed along 228. Roads never been better. Thanks to President
Biden and Build Back Better. Good luck on your new GTPE.

2023 Mach E Premium
Country flag
I got my Premium about 3-4 weeks ago and after learning they are offering 0% and it ends today, I'm looking around to upgrade to the GT. Sure I got 1.9% and it really only adds about $2k over the 5 years, but it's an excuse to upgrade....I'm itching!!! But is the GT really worth it over the Premium?

So my personal opinion is absolutely. The power difference from the Premium to GT (to my wife and I) is so extremely different and better. We also much prefer the styling with the fake grill and light up pony on the front. I do think we'd both prefer the premium seats though for ease of cleaning (we have a 5 year old). The GT seats are comfortable, its just from a cleaning perspective.

Hello neighbor! We are in Robinson, over by the airport. We are going to test drive the GTPE tonight to see what we think.

We have a 22 GTPE and love it. WE have had it about a year now and so far it is the best car we have ever had. The ride with the PE is definitely better.

Hey "neighbor" I know you were talking to the other guy. I'm over near Monroeville.

Don't care which political party you subscribe to; but you may want to "tip your cap" to Elon Musk as well. With out him, this entire EV movement let alone this forum is non-existent. We all know what happened to GM's EV1. Legacy Auto would not have had the Guts to go up against big oil until market share started diminishing.

Awesome...glad to see some other Pittsburghers on here.
North Fayette Township checking in. Have had our Vapor Blue Premium ER for a month or so and absolutely love it. Lots of new owners around Pittsburgh I think because it's only recently that MMEs started to actually make it here and show up on lots.

0%? Have I not paid attention to the Ford site? (Oh I see what they're doing, the 0% is only for vehicles ordered before May 1st, so 2023's not 2023.5's, but for fun I'm headed to the dealer in 30. min to play the game)
The 0% financing can apply to the 2023.5s too. My dealership has a 2023.5 coming in next week (which I've put a down payment on), and they said I'm getting the 0% rate on that car. I believe the promotion ends today or tomorrow, though.

I agree. We decided to buy based on his underpaid workers in Fremont. At least 60000 workers are raising families and buying the ev made sense.
