    Hail damage in Chicago

    Totaled, wow. I could see if they were sitting in a dealer lot. I would not want to buy something like that. My car seems to drive ok. My real concern is the cracked windshield. I may seek paintless debt repair for the dings. For the glass, does anyone recommend Safelite, or a regular body shop?

    Hail damage in Chicago

    We had golf ball-sized hail a few days ago in the Chicago suburbs, and my car was pummeled for at least a couple of minutes. Got some dings on the hood and driver's side door. More concerning is the crack in the front windshield. Haven't noticed anything on the glass roof, though. I filed a...

    Scheduled Charging with Juicebox 40

    That's slick! I use Android, but I found an app, "Open app scheduler," to automatically open the Lucid app at a time within the tou range. It seems to be working so far. I also had an issue with the Juice Box dropping the WiFi connection. Enel X suggested connecting it to a 2.4ghz network, and...

    Scheduled Charging with Juicebox 40

    Yes. If I plug in outside of the tou time, I get the error. But if I then open the Lucid app inside of the tou time, the smart charging works. We need to figure out how to open the app automatically.

    Accelerator Pedal stiffness

    It was definitely stiff at first, but after 500 miles, I must be getting used to it. Swift mode helps, I'll probably stay with mostly smooth during winter

    Building my own winter tire/wheel set

    The Lucid service center is too far away to go there every time you switch wheel/tire size. This should be in the settings

    Building my own winter tire/wheel set

    The problem with the 20s is that there's less clearance for accumulated snow. It gets wedged in the wheel well, and complicates turning.

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Well, I no longer have to answer the question "When are you getting your Lucid?" I picked up my AT yesterday, and other than the Chicago rush hour traffic, delivery was a great experience. Hanna M was my DA, and coordinated beautifully. The car itself is wonderful, enjoyed by wife and kids also...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    My car is a Touring, amateur DD, VIN was assigned 12/27. When I called Saturday, found out production was complete, and today DA called to say it's on the way to Chicago, with likely arrival 1/20. So, a little over 3 weeks to get to delivery center. Then they need 2-3 days for inspection and...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Just got word that my car (glad/SSP/no DDP) is on a truck en route to house Goose Island. VIN assignment was 12/27. It's likely to arrive the 19th or 20th, and, allowing a couple of days for inspection and cleanup, I'm thinking of taking delivery next Tuesday, 3 years after the refundable...

    No need to reset TPMS

    I used to go old school on my Model S for years, and let the sensors flash for the 3 months of winter, manually checking pressures every 4-6 weeks. Only this season did I get tpms for the snow tires, in anticipation of handing over the car to my wife. Pro tip: adjust the steering wheel to block...

    I think you read this week's Motor Trend review of the AT, and couldn't resist😁

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    It's definitely useful for me, as I live more than 40 miles (75 minutes minimum) from the Goose Island service center, and would like to have a rough idea of when the car is coming in. I just talked to my DA, who said production is complete (dashboard still says in production), and car is still...

    Hello from Chicago/Naperville area

    I should be taking delivery in the next week or so, based on "in production" since 12/27. I ordered with 20s, which come with summer rubber. With this mild weather, I'm actually thinking about driving home to St Charles before getting all-seasons with 19s installed at a nearby shop😅.
