I would add that we (collective EV owners) need to back off the EV's are everyone's future mantra a bit. They might be, eventually, but to ICE fans its nothing more than a veiled endorsement of those trying to ban ICE. Some here are completely ungrounded to myriad reasons why people choose...

Cord being too short all depends on the arrangement of the pedestals. I've used a few that worked fine.

It would have been a sign if disrespect if the Gravity was even mentioned in that C&D article, let alone compared. The GM BT1 platform is abomination of inefficient engineering, design, and battery bloat. I'm the least likely here to claim that EV's are substantially greener than ICE, but the...

Everyone has their own use case, but I think it's good to consider how you will actually charge at home vs how you think you might charge at home. For instance, if you have a home charger, you can charge daily which makes it unlikely your SOC is going to be super low (not to mention battery...

I installed a 60a circuit for my Tesla HC, then when I got the Air, it came with a rebate that allowed me to buy the Lucid HC for about $200. I swapped it out and sold the Telsa charger on eBay which covered the cost of the Lucid HC. Charge the Air at 48a and as others have said, I can't...

I'm embarrassed I never knew this was an option, and I'm a RTFOM type of guy. Cheers!

I was the OP for the first 6 months of my Air experience, so I genuinely empathize with their frustration, but it's been fantastic ever since (15 months). We've been using it a LOT this summer and with the Tesla SC expansion (that works flawlessly by the way) it's really expanded our travel...

I find the original premise of the thread fascinating and relevant to all lessees. I'm following with great interest, in fact. Where have I belittled legitimate complaints?? My comments are about the pervasive sense of entitlement over the resolution/implementation myriad issues on this...

Lucid, or at least this forum, sure attracts an interesting collections of humans. I can't recall such a concentration of adults that feel entitled to (and demand) personal apologies, immediate software updates, treat Lucid like their personal boutique auto maker and expect direct access to...

Thanks for sharing these details with the rest of us. I've added my Air to my Tesla App and should be all sorted when I get my adaptor tomorrow.

90% of our charging is at wife's work but road trips for me couldn't be less about an agenda, careful planning, an itinerary, or anything remotely similar to regular life schedules and commitments. Most important to me is having options and not assuming things will work as expected. I may not...

Man alive, you're taking Lucid's petty behavior to new heights! My wife notwithstanding, the frustration from the oft complained about daily interactions FAR exceed a fine to get the car back to near showroom condition. If in 2 years the most fundamental daily interactions with the car are...

Technically speaking, I guess we are responsible for the damage to the rims and glass chips while the car is in our care. But is it reasonable to expect after 3 years and 36k miles that the car is going to be 100% free of any defect? We have put our money where our mouth is and invested in...

They only put the bear on if you ask. I didn't realize they never made left and right bears, but they also never made left and right side directional wheels, so put that in your OCD pipe and smoke it :cool:

Is an apology really going to move you into a different emotional space? I get the disappointment, but not the entitlement.
