While some of you are still awaiting your ponies, some of us have hit our one year anniversary. Let's celebrate the anniversaries with good news stories.

Marlin was delivered one year ago yesterday.

Ford Mustang Mach-E It's anniversary time! IMG_9841

Some highlights:
  • Two trips to FL, one to NY, one to Indiana, several shorter ones.
  • A Mustang Show
  • Changed lots of minds at the Mustang Club of Maryland
  • Lead car in EV group at Poolesville (MD) Day Parade (largest National Drive Electric Week event in the country)
  • Multiple EV events
  • No serious car performance issues since the first month (there was a little LVB issue that resulted in a TSB that first month)
  • Looks great after full front-end body work (result of a flying retread), although it was the hard way to get a front plate holder delete
  • Looking forward to BlueCruise (soon please)
Ready for year two and delivery of my Lightning!

No honorable mention of PaaK ... the disappointment sets in. Congrats on 1 year.

I'm coming up on 1 year also (Feb 25th).
One long-ish trip to Texas and back. 650 miles each way.
Several shorter "trips" that required a DCFC. I still have about 220KWH remaining of the original 500 gratis.
A cracked pano roof was the only major issue - handled well by my dealer.
About 8600 miles on the odo.
Really enjoying this car.

Does "Ready for....delivery of my Lightning" mean you've been able to place your order? If so, congrats! I'm sitting (im)patiently on my reservation waiting for the invitation to order.

Happy Anniversary!

I completely forgot I missed mine on Sunday February, 6th, until Google's photo memories reminded me. I'll hijack your thread to post my own memories... sorry in advance for the pic spam.

Still very happy with my Mach-E. Every day I drive it (I share my commute between her and my i3) it's just as fun as the first drive! I've put on about 12,000miles in this year. Which I'm very happy about, since I'm able to split my 100mile round-trip commute between my Mach-E and my i3 (used to put at least 25K on my cars per year).

Only major issue was the front half-shaft, which my dealership very quickly diagnosed and replaced. Few software hiccups every now and again, but nothing major.

Here's Saphira the morning after she got delivered (she was delivered on a Friday night to their "receiving lot").

I remember anxiously checking the trackers every hour back then. I had a few drinks the night of the 6th and it was around 10PM when I saw it update to delivered. I actually got my partner to drive us to the dealership that night to see if we could see her, but wasn't aware they had a separate gated area for night receipts... Texted my salesperson letting them know I'd be there as soon as they open that morning. ?

Got Xpel PPF applied to the whole front end shortly after delivery:

It's been a great year with her! First DC charging stop on first road trip up to DC area (March 2021):

First time realizing just how much she could haul (from IKEA, of course!):

First time seeing another e-pony in the wild was June of '21 in Downtown Roanoke:

Khaleesi (my Malchi) testing out the rear doggie cover for a trip to Delaware:

She had a great time on the trip and enjoyed her rear seat relaxation spot!

And obligatory beach pic (she's loves the ocean!):

So many 1 years now...my car also celebrated its 1 year anniversary with us yesterday. I got reminded of it, surprise surprise, by an e-mail from my dealer! :gasp: LOL

With 10,000 miles on ours it still hasn't gone as far as other peoples on here. Its only been DC fast charged twice (I still have 95% of the "free" kWh in FordPass available).

So far when it travels it gets driven along with another vehicle...

Grabber Blue FE represent! Mine was roaming the country by rail for quite a while, so I didn't take delivery until March. Really, really fantastic car, even with the bugs and quirks (which are getting better!)

Not quite a year of ownership for me. But, on this day in 2021, this Premium ER AWD rolled out the doors of the Ford CuautitlĆ”n Assembly Plant, turned left and got on a train to Kansas City 2 days later. It was delivered to me 12 weeks and change later because you canā€™t get here from there.

Just rolled it over 7000 miles right after this picture was taken (This past Saturday). Yes, thatā€™s winter in upcountry Hawaii. Itā€™s brutally mild.
