Just drove 3500 miles from Cali to Maine, 1 Mach E spotted…

[Nklem]

No I was not driving my Mach E.

I was driving a Ram 3500 Dually truck I bought from a relative in Visalia, CA. Last week. Of the 3500 miles I saw two Mach E’s, one at a dealer Visalia, CA and one in MA on route 24 from the Cap/RI at rush hour heading towards Boston (Red AWD Select) last Thursday.

Wow, I was shocked. At 1000 miles covered per day, highway 99, I 40, I 44, I70, I80, I195, 128, and finally I95 and through CA, AZ, NM, TX, OK, Il, IN, MO, OH, PA, NJ NY, CT, RI, NH, MA, finally Maine.

I thought I would see a few more, we saw countless teslas, several Hyundai Ioniqs, a few Niros, two trailer loads of new Rivians on i40 heading south in Illinois, one pagani huayra and one lone Mach E.

I guess it’s nice to have a rare car on the road today, as rare as a huayra.

it’s also nice to be in the Mach E again. 11 MPG with a Ram Dually was fun but not economical.

The tour of Hinckley Yachts (my son is an engineer for them) was equally impressive in RI. I saw more million dollar Hinckleys than Mach E’s as well.

I used to live in Visalia. I managed the old Fox theater years ago. I agree with you on the rarity of the MME. I see countless Teslas in the Bay area and only a few MME. I want to try a cross country drive someday.

Gorgeous yacht. What a trip!
a lot of new Mache’s getting finished up lately. Many (like me) will wait for awhile or at least through the winter before trying a long distance jaunt like yours! We also have a small Motorhome with solar that is perfect for long distance. It’s a Ford turbo diesel @ 17mpg. I will probably feel guilty not using the Mache for those trips! Wish my mme had solar!??

where were you next to the wind turbines? We have a lot near us. Hoping to get a photo them with my Mme GT soon. Get it tomorrow.?

I’m sure you would see more Mach-Es on the coasts and probably Michigan, but definitely not very common. In LA, I’ll see one every 2 to 3 weeks or so it seems.

That Hinckley is gorgeous.

I've seen a decent number of Mach Es around the Bay (maybe 3 dozen or so), but not enough that I don't still give a thumbs up to the driver when I see them on the road, or chat them up if I see them at a charging station/parking lot ?

Wow, I have seen a grand total of 4 MMEs of any type on the Peninsula. 3 were on the road (actually one was up in Sonoma, so not on the Peninsula) and one parked on the street.

I gave the thumbs up but I don’t think they saw me since I was driving a Fusion Energi (my sister’s Saturn SL in Sonoma).

"You got anything I can set my 1.5 million dollar yacht on?" ...
"Sure, how about a few wooden blocks!"

I live in the City, but drive all over for work. I'd probably only seen about 10 Mach E up until about August. Seeing a lot more lately, not including the 10 or so getting serviced or delivered at Walnut Creek Ford when I was there a couple weeks ago. I seem to always see one on highway 24 lol

I've only seen one GT in the City, and two Grabber Blues, and zero Cyber Orange or Rapid Red.

I live in a small rural town in Ontario canada, and 3 in my subdivision, and I see at at least 1 a week on the highway. But it is rare car compared to the Tesla, as there are 4 in my subdivision
