Separate names with a comma.
Yeah 200 miles would get me partially into Oklahoma.... LOL.
I didn't start the thread. I took a serious look at both the MME and the Tesla Model Y, test drove them both, and came over to share my...
As I've said repeatedly, I think Ford is being too conservative. I think Ford may loosen up a bit with time, particularly to compete with Tesla...
Ah... I think in your rush to slam all things MME - correction, you're just very "worried" LOL - you misunderstood what I said above. As I...
I wish. Then I'd get A-Plan pricing! I do not expect Ford to be as quick or far reaching as Tesla with OTA updates. The first major issue the MME...
I believe it. Ford’s gone all in on the MME as a Tesla competitor. Competitive charging and OTA updates are a part of this.
Yes, Ford is currently being very conservative with the battery, both in terms of charging curve and useable capacity. The "80% cliff" is real,...
I’ve watched a lot of MME vids. Kind of obsessed. And it is funny just how many of them are driving around in that white stuff. Like, a majority...
There are three different modes: Whisper, Engage, and Unbridled. Best I can tell, they make slight differences in responsiveness of the gas/brake...
No heated windshield in the US. I gave up pretty fast on the video. I get this guy is some sort of EV Celeb, but when making my decision I did...
I don’t get all the buzz about this stuff, personally. I like my iPhone but I’m not sure why I’ve gotta have CarPlay. I don’t know - maybe it’s...
Yup, that’s fair. No offense taken. I’ll be first to admit I’ve never been a sports car guy. I like the way they look but I’ve never wanted one...
You guys are weirdly obsessed with these first run issues and the vast media conspiracy to not cover them. I mean, really, how much free garage...
That was a fun review. It’s fun to watch a Mustang fan having fun in the Mach E. He did get one thing wrong: the “flimsy parcel shelf” is just a...
Agreed. But I still consider the Supercharger network (and faster charging) a relevant advantage because most people would probably like to take...
Yeah but, like, isn’t it reasonable to expect that Kansas - and virtually everywhere else - is better than New Jersey? I feel like that’s not a...
Good news my Tesla friends, Ford believes they have fixed the MME’s 12v battery issue - less than a week after it popped up. They had to divert...
Trust me, a lot of turbines froze this past week at a time when power consumption for heating surged. Most don’t have the more expensive...
KS is closer to 4mil population, but the point stands. It’s really really inefficient. Next consider that every one of those counties has a county...
To be fair, if I left my car out overnight in -20 degree weather, it wouldn’t start, either. I have virtually zero concern about this issue...
Oh don’t I know it. The tradeoff is supposed to be low cost of living. To some extent that’s true, and to some extent it isn’t. I can’t believe...
It's.... complicated. Kansas has a very red legislature. But the governor tends to flip about every 8 years, and the Supreme Court is almost...
We're very friendly but it's a worse place to live. We've got California's tax and energy policies (and now earthquakes) but without the good...
People comparing Ford to Hitler, getting disinvited to Xmas. Damn. [IMG]
That's fair about the hypocrisy, but that ain't me. Also, I'm not taking car advice from Bjork. What's she know about EVs?
Speaking of conspiracy theories.... I remember the good old days when “climate change” was called “global warming.” Not every weather anomaly is...
Probably add one more stop along the way because actually running yourself down to 10-20% is awfully risky out in the wastelands. And then add...
lolz exactly.
It could partly be where you’re driving. When I drive from Kansas to the Rockies, I want to get there ASAP. There ain’t nothing pretty about...
So I guess this is the thread where we mine every issue from the MME forum and copy it over here. Ok. The coil whine would def bother me if it is...
The MME is a false flag operation hatched by Ford to harm EVs..... No, I can verify that’s cuckoo bananas level crazy.
I don’t think you’re concerned about this. :) I also think it might be a little condescending to assume that the MME’s market is more conservative...
I’ll be sure to forward that suggestion to the Ford execs. I think they meet weekly to assess the setting of the “< ads - engineering >” dial. ;)
I think I could go more that tit for tat trading Tesla QC anecdotes.... and Tesla has had a littttttle more time to iron things out by now. But do...
To each his own. Some people enjoy (much, much) more leisurely road trips. I do think you might be fudging the “only had to stop 25mins every 2...
The idea that Ford is wasting money on advertising at the expense of engineering is a bit silly, IMHO. The recent ad buys indicate that Ford is...
Yup, I knew about the DCFC issues going in. Not a big factor for me. But I think that will get significantly better in a year or two. Also not...
I just entered the market for my first EV, and I wanted the ride height and room of a crossover. So I looked at the Tesla MY and the Ford MME....
