Not really....I am an University of Toronto Grad. BUT, I worked for many years under the tutorage of several very famous Caltech alums. Maybe something rubbed off on me. ;)

I get that. But most Cosmos and Earth buyers likely won't have 3 or 4 cars in their garages and can afford to have the car be in service for 30+ days. For many, it might be a car they depend on every day. Lucid is a "country-mile" away from that milestone! I hope Lucid gets there! But it...

I agree with you with respect that buying a heavily depreciated, low mileage, 1–3-year-old Lucid is probably the best strategy. That said, it doesn't bode well for Lucinid's future if that's the model!

I di I did.... Both prisoners might be lying.

That's why they are still in prison! :cool: Honesty is the best, and only, policy. The truth will set you free! "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:32, New Testament.

Well said! The steep (significantly steeper than competitors) depreciation is an often-overlooked metric in the buying decision. As in my example, Rivian might not have Lucid's swager, but it keeps its value much better. These metrics might not faze many of the original Lucid enthusiasts as...

Agree with all of @Northpoint's remarks. I just started on my 5th year of my ownership on my 2022 AGT. By far and away, the biggest "expense" is the depreciation of Lucid' s vehicles. To me. it significantly high than other brands. I think the data is out there. You can research it yourself...

Does your definition of "Cost-of-ownership" only address maintenance or does it also include depreciation? If you are talking only about maintenance, my 2022 AGT ran about $700/year, primarily for the annual maintenances, tires, fluids, etc.. SW is Lucis's Achilles heel. For my car, the...

Exactly! To be clear, I am NOT baiting you guys. I don't have a known problem per se. But, as @Bdr100 correctly articulated, I haven't crawled underneath the car to check everything. If maintenance can be scheduled AND SERVICED BY LUCID within the warranty time frame, then there is no...

Interesting point: Let me raise an "absurd point" for contemplation: > I try to schedule a regular maintenance appointment with Lucid, but itis only avialble 6 months out. > at the time I made the appointment, there was no known error. > sometime between when I scheduled my maintenance...

To the extent that errors/deviations are logged (dated), the question RE: when did the error occur can be traced. If the date of the error is prior to the expiration of the warranty, it should be covered.

You are missing my point: > I will have to pay for CCV2 one way or the other. That's not what I am asking. > the question is: ...if they find something that WOULD HAVE BEEN covered under warranty. However, LUCID SC couldn't schedule me till Dec 1, even though I asked for a service...

I wonder: I have a 2022 AGT. I purchased it in October 2022. As such, my 4-year warranty expires this month. I made an appointment to do my 4 year maintenance and to install CCCV2. However, the SC couldn't service me until Dec 1. Q: Should the SC service my vehicle under warranty? Thoughts?

My lifetime efficiency on my 2022 AGT is 3.55 over 22,000 miles. About 70-75% percent of that mileage were logged between Phoenix AZ and Marin County CA (I-10-CA 215-I5) with speeds between 70mph to 75mph. As such, it is pretty consistent with OP's #s and the other AGT owners. In real life...

was it a Lucid QA breakdown or was it Gravity? Lucid's "Gravity Picnic", staged about 2 years ago in December 2024, was supposed to show Gravity is ready for production ramp. Perhaps some of the top Lucid exec's bonus depended on hitting that milestone. Several owners in this forum attended...
