    Anyone up for auto insurance rate comparisons?

    We are in GA. Two drivers with clean records. I think our deductible is $500 for comp and collision. I have a 2024 pure RWD. We pay $2000 per year. Tesla model y which is a less expensive car used to be $2200 per year. 2020 Acura MDX with Tech package has much lower premium

    Lucid Financing issues

    Last year when I tried to lease a Lucid year my application was declined. I did not have any debt and I had not applied for financing so this was a surprise. Fortunately we were able to lease the car based on my wife’s application. I was told that they needed at least 3 credit lines. I have had...

    How Did You First Become Aware of Lucid?

    Last July I took my wife for lunch in my Tesla Model Y. She felt sick due to the poor drive quality. She said that she will never sit in my car again. She also told me that my kids hated the ride quality as well. I did not know about it. This led me to look at other EVs. I consider polestar...

    Having trouble getting a refund

    Even during the purchase process it took multiple emails to get answers to my questions. I was not worried because I knew that I liked the car and I will not have to work with the sales person after I have the car.

    Having trouble getting a refund

    They owe me $750. I was assured my customer care that they have escalated my message and that they will call me when they have more information. My message to them was that I hope I do t have to call them back in four months.

    Having trouble getting a refund

    I did call my sales associate who was based in CA. She did not bother to respond as she has already sold the car and moved on.

    Having trouble getting a refund

    When I leased my Lucid last August I was over charged by about $700. I called customer care, and the person I spoke with tried to tell me that I was not owed a refund. I sent him the receipt from Forsyth County GA, showing how much sales tax was paid. I was told that they will review it and...

    Shipping your Lucid

    I shipped my Tesla model y from Minnesota to Georgia. I put in an AirTag in it. It cost around $1000 in 2023. The shipping person was used to Tesla’s. You can choose open I or covered trailer. I can find their information if it will help. I found them via a shipping site where I made my request...

    Bank Wire Required?

    It varies by location. If Lucid has a sales office in a location they may have more options for payment. For example Atlanta only has a service center not a sales office. So I had no choice but to send a wire.

    Comfort & Convenience Package or 20-way Ventilated Seats?

    I have both comfort and convenience package and massage chairs. I did not even know that I had heated steering wheel. I am in Atlanta where winters are mild. We do use massage chairs frequently. I think along with massage you also get ventilated seats

    Soft close doors add on

    I have comfort and convenience package. How do the soft close doors work? I know I should read the manual. RTFM but as I get older I don’t take the time to read manuals

    No more Tesla, welcome Lucid!

    Many of us are refugees from Tesla. I have had my Lucid for 5 months and it has been an excellent family car. Ride quality on my Tesla Model Y was so terrible that family refused to ride in it.
