Atlanta area?

[Stevey]

When was that? I was considering buying their Select 21 AWD (they have a few), but they wanted $5k ADM. No premiums available. They had one GTPE they wanted $14k on it.

Last week in Jul '21. Worked with Eric (EV owner) and he was very helpful. Avoided the ADM since it was a reservation. He has been keeping his eye out for a Premium RWD extended range but he said they are few and far between and most people who order them usually purchase. I am also bring kind of picky as we already have the '21 and the '22 is on order. Part of the reason they have some available is the purchase them from other dealers which is why there is an ADM in addition to a little profiteering .

Yes, they told me that. They got all these Selects from northeast dealers, since the regular range battery in the winter is a joke in cold states.

Any one in the Atlanta area got TSB 22-2117 applied successfully to get the 1.7.1 update unstuck. If so, what dealer? Angela Krause Ford of Roswell hasn't given me a lot of confidence in their ability to handle this.

My GTPE gets built this month and should be here late May or early June. I’m using Autonation Ford Marietta. Anyone have good or bad experiences with them? Anything I need to know about them to prepare?

What's everyone's pricing for a 240v outlet? I got some quotes for $700-1500 which seems a little outrageous

I paid $685 for "labor and materials (see description) -supply and install the following for (1) Nema 14-50 amp outlet: wire, conduit, outlet, cover, trim for up to a 60' run" That was with By The Book Electrical Company (BTB Electrical Contractors) at the end of 2020.

Just my opinion - costs vary wildly across the country. I read as many posts on here as possible. Lots of power companies are offering incentives as well as federal tax credits. I'm not a real estate agent but I think adding a 240v outlet is one of the smartest additions to parking spaces that will almost always be worth the price.

I agree, but that wasn't que question posted above. ?
It NEEDS to be done, no doubt. It's a matter of price. An issue I will have to deal with as well, if this damn frustrating car is ever delivered to me. ?

I was able to get a 30 amp installed for $300 a little over 2 years ago.

In my case the basement where the panel is located is finished but the kitchen cooktop area was wired for 30 amp electric and gas. We have a gas cooktop so the 30 amp circuit was unused.

The electrician was able to extend the circuit 10 feet and install a 14-30 receptacle in the garage in about 10 minutes since that was the one part of the basement unfinished, accessible, and shared a wall with the garage.

I have not had any problems with charging speed using the 30 amp circuit at 24 amps. My wife drives the Chevy Bolt about 20-25 miles a day. It takes a little over an hour each day to return to 80%. Then I plug in the MME sometime before bed and it is charged to 90% well before the morning.

If I had wanted a 50 amp circuit it would have cost at least double as it would have involved messing up and repairing the drywall in the finished part of the basement, a new circuit breaker, more expensive wire, and more time.

I am scheduled to drop off at Gwinnett Place on 4/11. They estimate 4 days since it will be re-sealing the glass roof and the windshield. Fingers crossed.

Recall wound up taking 5 days to remove/replace windshield and reseal pano roof. Same parts after so no breakage. A little chemical smell after but all gone now. Gwinnett Place Body Shop did a good job as far as I can tell, no problems,

A quick update...

I got my car back Tuesday (4-19-22) after dropping it off the previous Wednesday night to have 21P22 (probably not needed due to 2.4.2), 22-2117 (22-2150), 21G01 applied, and I was one of the lucky ones. We now have SYNC 22034_PRODUCT Revision 363 (Power up 2.5.3), and have already tested/used Blue Cruse. I initially had my doubts, but Angela Krause Ford in Alpharetta GA did a great job and even found a loaner for us.

I paid $600. I agree a bit much, but Electric Bug had done some other people's install with great reviews.

Thank you, I will reach out soon. Just got my production date today, 5/30. Time to start planning, about 4 months to go.

In Fayetteville here. Ordered a 2022 GT in Grabber Blue... couldn't pull the trigger for the PE... on 2/25/22. Received my build week of 5/30. Looking forward to increasing the GA MME population.
