So tempted. only 1,821 miles away! Or, about ten HV charging sessions at current temps. Which is about 44 hours travel and charge time, or 309 @HuntingPudel hours. Think maybe I'll go fishing with @IgorKl instead. Been wondering how many catfish will fit in my Frunk anyhow...

I'm betting the avg person at a car meet just thinks the MME is another crossover SUV. Curious about the reception you get at such events. If they made me park in the Tesla and Leaf section, pretty sure I'd just stay home anyhow.

The last one I went to had several other MMEs at it (also at Ford’s lab in Palo Alto - the vast majority of EVs were either Brand T or MME). People seemed to know it was an EV. A few asked me about my “grille wrap” since most of the other MMEs were not GTs. One or two asked why I was in the frunk. 🤷‍♂️🐩

I made a short video of the last one they had -- it was fun and my buddies at the lab tell me they are planning to have more concept cars and surprises for this one!

Great video!! I'm yet to run into a single MME in my area. How fun to hang with several. Looking forward to your next vid!
