Picked up the MachE today and it is AWESOME!! Sorry for all of you that have to wait, but I promise, it is worth it!! I love the ride, the speed, the handing, the seats, not all in that order. I also have a LOT to learn! The one pedal breaking takes a few minutes to get used to and the Ford Pass app doesn’t work yet, but it will. Looking forward to fun weekend of driving if the weather will cooperate!!

Hope you're enjoying the electric pony !

When you have a moment, please do post if you visit your local EA charging station. My road trip will include a charging stop in Springfield. I've been tracking the checkins on PlugShare for that location and there has been some reports of being out of service. Hopefully EA has resolved that.
There is an EA charging station at the Walmart on the south end of town. We went there last night and used it just to get an idea of how this all works and didn’t have any issues. I hope that helps!

Congrats! I'm on the western edge of IL - you car probably went right past me on its way from KC. I'm on the same direct highway from KC so I hope I have the same short delivery.

One question about your license plate - It's my understanding that in Illinois we have special EV-plates ($100 surcharge because they don't collect motor fuel taxes from us) and vanity plates are not available. It looks like you got a vanity plate - very cool. Anything you can tell me about how that came about??? I wonder if the dealer didn't know what they were doing and gave you a standard vanity plate instead of an EV plate?


Edit: I just noticed the 4/21 sticker date. It looks like you transferred an existing vanity plate. Maybe that's a loophole that will allow us to get vanity plates on an EV. My car is due week of Feb-6 so it's too late for me to try.

I was going to ask the same thing. How did you get your vanity plate to the MME? I've been asking my IL state rep for months about getting around the stupid EL plates.

Amen! You'd think that as broke as our state is, they'd want to be able to collect some extra money for vanity plates.

I asked the rep why they just don't add the extra $100 onto the regular plate fee if they're wanting the fuel tax they lose. She just said they're working on it. I agree, Illinois is always looking for a way to make an extra buck, so it doesn't make sense. I'm sure they'll fix it.
