Update on Mach-E launch progress from engineering friends in Mexico

[dbsb3233]

Wonder if it was made in Canada if we would hear the same. Never had a prob with Mexico; for me it is better than made in China. We are all on the the same continent; in fact I think I can walk to Mexico and never get my feet wet. I thought the new free trade had something about pay in it, this time around, in an attempt to try to equalize that? Hope the employees feel that they are all treated right. That has a reflection on production quality for sure. So far sounds like not a prob.

Agreed. Market pay just varies a lot based on cost of living in each area. I'm sure the Ford employees in Mexico probably get paid well for that market, but good pay in that market is surely significantly less than the US and Canada. Mexico City (which Cuautitlan is part of) has a cost of living index of 37 (relative to NYC 100). By comparison, Louisville KY (where Ford builds the Escape) is a 66. Windsor ON is a 61.

89% charge = 201 miles remaining? 100% = 225 miles then
New boot/start intro on the steering wheel screen?

"Alarm System - Turn off motion sensors?" YES/NO

Does that mean Sentry Mode?

I'm stumped too besides the estimated 225 miles at 100%

If it's Standard Range AWD, that would not be too bad. If it's Standard Range RWD, then it's not very exciting .

So is the missing rear occupant playing with buttons?

For sure the opening sequence is very short now and only in the front driver screen and the center screen opens immediately.

It’s NOT making the same sounds as the one I saw at East Windsor! This one sounds very cool and modern!

I hope these are the production sounds ???

"Alarm System - Turn off motion sensors?" YES/NO

Probably refers to the rear occupancy sensors

Does the car know there is a child seat installed and prompt you to not forget your kid?
