    LCID stock

    Given that The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is sitting on at least 20 Trillion dollars worth of oil, it is not difficult to see why that is the case. If Lucid or EV in general becomes more popular, it can actually hurt their overall financial interest. Lucid does currently have the best efficiency...

    What a Difference a Tire Makes!!

    Did you notice any difference in range and consumption going from summer to all season? Assuming that you have also driven the all season in similar conditions as the summer tires. Obviously less range is expected in winter, making the comparison pointless. Thanks.

    Sapphire in September

    I really hate to sound pro Tesla, personally will not buy a Tesla due the the way they treat their customers. But if there is a car out there that is: - 1/2 the price of the Sapphire - 95% of the Performance - Proven (for both good and bad) - Much better aftermarket support - Much better...

    Tesla v.s Lucid steering & console

    This really is a safety issue. Lucid got it right. It's not just yoke vs wheel, but also the removal of turn signal stalk on the Tesla. When making a 3 point turn, it is distracting to have to use the steering wheel turn signal control on the Tesla, regardless of yoke or wheel.

    Upgrading wheels

    1. Based a very recent conversation I had with Lucid, they really don't want you to run aftermarket wheels on their vehicles, especially when it comes to warranty related issues. Personally I have a huge problem with that and that may be a deal breaker for me. Sure, there is the Magnuson-Moss...
