First Mach E Delivery in Washington State/PNW e(Seattle)

[kgautam28]

Proud to receive by First Edition from Bill Pierre Ford, Seattle (they have a DEMO, thats right a DEMO is ready today and two dealer orders available coming next month in premium) Thanks to Kelly & Raymond for helping me out, these guys were awesome, by delivery window was 02/13-02/19, they brought it in on 02/10! Super grateful to be the first one in the state.

Excellent so far, Haven't explored everything but my biggest concern of range has been met, on flat roads at 55-60mph i saw 4.4miles/kwh and on hilly Seattle streets it was 2.2miles/kwh at 25-30s F (-1 C) outdoor temperature with 40% of the energy going towards external temperature. I'm guessing the summer range on this will be at least 300miles per charge.

Bonus, there is a way to cast your phone screen onto the big central display, yet to figure it out.

Enjoy the pictures for now, more updates, facts, reviews coming soon.
Last picture, hopefully my last time at a filling station, just before i picked up my car from the dealer. (returned the loaner)

Had the reboot issue with android Auto, uninstalling updates on Chrome fixed that

Beautiful car! Hoping I might be the next in Seattle .

Do you have your car set to Celsius? I don't recall it getting that cold...hoping that is the case and your thermometer isn't going crazy!

Yes it's set to Celsius.
Thank you

Cool, my dealer got their FCTP today in Puyallup, I am going to take a test drive tomorrow, weather permitting. Enjoy your new ride!

Congrats!! Those are some beautiful shots.

Sucks that the weather is so crummy this weekend for driving. As soon as it's possible, I'm dying to know what 70mph range is. Everyone is posting about their GOM estimate but I haven't seen anyone drive for 200+ miles from 100%.

Someone from the Puget Sound area, please drive on I-5 up to B'ham or down to Portland and see what the range is. Or maybe over to Ellensburg or Yakima.

Eventually I will most likely be going up the Bellingham area for a drive. First I need my car and the XPEL installed. I hope to have my car in about 10 days, judging by the time it took for the FCTP to get there from KC.

my favorite part is the bored wife in the passenger seat ?

First-congrats on the new car Gautum —GREAT downtown pix!

Hey Dave.
I’m wondering if you’d share where you’re planning on getting XPEL installed, and I’ve you’ve any quotes yet?
I live in Edmonds and am planning on swinging up to a place in Lynnwood on Monday to chat with them a bit about doing mine when it arrives (3-5 to 3-12!).
Hoping to do some comparison shopping from the couch, if possible.
I‘ll also be driving up to Bellingham shortly after we get the protection on the car to visit our daughter and friends (and to show off, of course!) so I’ll be able to add some consumption data then to the forum.

I am going to Accutint in Bellevue. A BECU member with passport gets a 15% discount.
Passport Corporate

They have other discounts also, see their website.

Partial Front Kit with Full Hood: $1,315 before discount.

Full front $2099 before discount

They will take $64 off for no door cups.
The area covered for full front is not much more that partial for almost $800 more. Full front does cover the fender behind the wheel where it would get hit by tire spray. A splash guard would protect that area also for a lot less. I will probably do the partial with full hood. That would be $1,064 after discount and minus door cups. They do a wash, x-iron, and clay bar prep, plus a polish for extra $$ if too many scratches. They did my Subaru Outback in 2010.
I am considering a wrap on the front, below the "smile", depending on cost, for this effect:

Great information-very appreciated!
I too would go with “partial” since not much more is covered.
...and don’t forget since we‘re WA you’ll likely have a plate holder under the front pony ?.
I’ll be ecstatic if mine shows up un-encumbered but that’s a pipe dream. Thanks for the pricing. Very helpful.

I see there is an accutint in Shoreline also. I have a Craigs license plate bracket, I want to remove the factory bracket and use bumperplugs
