Sorry but no way.

Totally agree it is good news all around.

The first car I bought new was a 1972 Mazda RX2; Motor Trend Car of the Year. Paid right around $3200 for it right after I got out of the Army. And now my Dream P was also the MotorTrend Car Of The Year.

It really depends on the time of day around here. Unfortunately my three year free charging expired in early March but my wife's car still has a year left. I find it I go to the local EA charger (3 miles away) between 9:30 - 11:00 am on weekdays or 2:00-4:00 pm I almost never have to wait.

Cost of a new tire vs a new wheel? No brainer. I'll keep my tires at 45 psi. And I do have the replacement certificates from America's Tires anyway.

I guess I'm not sure why "SUV" is a more preferable designation than "minivan". In the past (way back) I owned a couple of minivans (practical at the time) and I've also owned a few SUV's (e.g. Landrover; Jeep Grand Cherokee) when I was into off roading and white water kayaking. Now I don't...

I keep my 21" tires at 45 psi cold. That's three pounds over the "recommended" tire pressure on the door frame. Here in northern CA we do have some potholes and I try to avoid those roads (like 101) whenever I can and use alternate routes if possible. One of the reasons I bought my Dream P...

Well there doesn't seem to be much progress on this subject so maybe it won't happen??

Just an FYI. Tire rack has the LM2 21" tires in stock and ships with very quick delivery.

I love driving this car and routinely drive at 75 (indicated actual around 73) on the freeways. I also often drive in the coastal mountains on windy roads with elevation changes for fun. Have 20k miles on it and my average is right around 3.1 mi/kWh. Battery capacity according to the test app...

So my first encounter with EV cars was the Tesla Roadster. My friend set up a test drive for us and I was very impressed with the acceleration but found it difficult to enter/exit and not very comfortable. Subsequently my friend bought one of the very first Model S Teslas and he got lifetime...

I just replaced my entire set of LM1 21" Pirelli PZero tires for the LM2. Initially my America's Tire store tried to give me LM1 tires for the fronts but I insisted I wanted the LM2 and eventually they were able to get them from TireRack (both owned by same company, including Discount Tire as...

Yeah lots of "soon" and "later this year" but this time I'm optimistic this is actually going to happen this year.

As Borski said I directly asked (again) about V2H at our Napa event two different Lucid employees who are directly involved. One said "very soon" and the other said "this year". One of them I spoke with a few months ago and he said at that time it would happen in 2025. So I am hopeful it is...
