Ok, here goes...

So just buy Home Assistant Green and I'm off and running? How hard is it to integrate all my Apple HomeKit stuff?

Just so everyone is clear, these work on L2 chargers (like the Tesla destination chargers). The Tesla Gen 3 wall unit is an L2 charger.

OMG

Appropriate response by Lucid IMO. Not the best behavior otherwise. Sorry.

Like I said, the amount of planning you need to do with an EV is many times harder than with an ICE. Sorry, but that's how it is. Hopefully, charging technology and charging networks will improve to a point where we don't need ABRP, Plugshare and an EV's nav to do a road trip.

I think you guys are in the EV distortion field. I can hop in my Hybrid, travel pretty much anywhere I want without giving it a thought. I can't come close to doing that in my EV. Maybe you live in places where there are DCFCs on every corner, where all stalls are operational, and there are...

I'm not sure why you're after me about this, but whatever.

Ok it is endemic to virtually all EVs except Tesla. I tell my friends who ask about EVs that they are great if you have home charging and don't take a lot of road trips. Otherwise it is much more complicated to own an EV.

I just learned from my SA that my AGT is supposed to leave the factory on June 16th. When I picked this car off the Lucidmotors.com web site, it said "available in four weeks." Well that has stretched to six weeks, and the car won't be available until it is delivered to the studio in MA, so it...

This is what I do (for my Audi). I keep a portable charger in my car, which is for emergencies, and also for when we visit our summer cottage. At home, I have a hardwired ChargePoint Homeflex, which is a smart charger with lots of bells and whistles. Well after three years, I can tell you I have...

Yes the Magicdocks work with any CCS--even my Audi.

Wait--the 19s squeal?? Hell no.

After thinking about this a little more, the worst thing about my current 20/21s is how loud they are on rough/worn pavement. My current ride is so quiet that this tire noise is very noticeable. There have been a few times when I've had the tires at their limit, despite my current ride having...

I just spent 20 minutes searching for similar threads and couldn't come up with something similar to this question. I would be grateful if your could point me to that thread.
