Do you have a friend or neighbor that can help or oversee your process? Changing a tire isn't that complicated, but it doesn't sound like you have much experience working on cars and getting it wrong has serious consequences.

Lucid home charger user here. What I found works for me is after I plug it in and wait a few minutes. When I go to the app and "wake" the car, it will give me a notification that charging is scheduled. Works 100% of the time as long as I get the notification that it's scheduled.

This sort of zero personal responsibility thinking is absolutely maddening. The cup doesn't fit! If it spills on your lap, that is a lack of critical thinking skills problem, not a Lucid problem.

Are you going to blame Lucid if your vehicle does not fit in your garage? How about using a different cup that fits the design?

Are you really not familiar with myriad complaints that many (not all) have about 2.10 and earlier UX? This is not the thread to regurgitate them but I'm so far very impressed with the speed and responsiveness. Seems like nothing went untouched, even the steering wheel volume control rate is...

I can confirm I just received notification of the software update. Mine is a May 2024 (Pure) build. Hoping this update is what I need to convince my wife to stay with Lucid.

I read the same thing in a Google alert, but all I can find now is "select 2024 models will need the hardware update", so does that mean the May+ builds are good to go?

What criteria did I lay out that puts her in a beige Camry? Operating door handles and a UX that doesn't crash opens up a lot of options...all them, actually. I'm not putting anyone in anything, she is making these choices based on her personal experience. Shout out E-40, everyone has choices.

The residual is just a best guess (or manipulation tool to adjust lease payments at the time of sale) but you can't use that as any measure of winning or losing on a buy out today. Check out the Lucid used site and you'll see 2-3 model year newer for less than those early residuals. Our...

Brake fluid is one of the most overlooked maintenance items on vehicles, or at least American vehicles. Euro brands are good about recommending 2-3 year change intervals, but I'm willing to bet there is a large number of cars on the road here that have never had the fluid changed and they are...

Unwatchable? Obnoxious?? I knew who he was just by the name, so whatever it is he does seems to build recognition, if not followers.

'24 Pure with 20" wheels and Santa Cruz interior. I'm obviously biased, but the Pure with a few options checked off is really the sweet spot of value and driving dynamics.

I think the GM BT1 platform is verging on irresponsible in terms of use of resources, inefficient drivetrain engineering, and overall weight. 9,500lbs curb weight is ridiculous.

If the lack of Homelink is going to cause you to use 31 exclamation points and regret your entire purchase decision, then that is on you!!!!! for not confirming the apparently life changing technology exists in the model you're about to purchase.

Is it plausible that what we think are best practice for battery health is not a fully vetted conclusion?
