The Gravity does not work with the older Tesla Destination wall chargers. (Lots of EVs don't, IIRC.) Only the newer ones that have the built-in adapter. You can fool the old ones with a TeslaTap adapter though (adding the reverse adapter to it to convert back to NACS), which I had to do on a...

The only other HUD I've ever used is in our 2025 Porsche Macan EV. It's dead solid perfect. Love it. And it's the main reason I opted to get the HUD in the Gravity. It's perfectly aligned, bright, clear, and I had no problem seeing it with my polarized prescription sunglasses. At first the...

3.6.4 didn't seem to have any impact on my chronic fob delays. 3.6.3 seemed to help a little at first but after a few days it reverted right back to the usual delays. I'm pursuing a fob replacement now, but if they can't program it remotely and just mail it to me, or do it with a mobile...

That part (inconsistent regen around 100%) is annoying and a bit dangerous when you forget about it or just aren't sure just when it's gonna happen or not. Fortunately it's not too often that I charge to 100%. Just road trips. Although we do road trip often.

I was 16 a long time ago too (70's), before you had to press the brake pedal in an automatic in order to shift it into gear. I think it was the 80's where BTSI systems became common, which solved that conundrum. I've been driving for so long that pressing down is just the natural reaction to...

Ah, yes, on that I totally agree. Same with the Gravity, where it won't remember CREEP. It's annoying to have to change that setting every time I get in the car. Fortunately it's on the first screen when the car powers up, so we don't have to go menus deep. But still, it's clearly an...

Yep. Some comments seem to suggest they think 1PD means regen on. That's not the case. That impacts use of the accelerator pedal but it's not when determines whether you drive it with just 1 pedal or 2. 1PD (at least for the Gravity) means HOLD instead of CREEP. And it only impacts that...

I agree on the need for a medium regen setting, but to me that would be below both Standard and High on the Gravity. I find Standard to be very strong on the Gravity, like an 8. With High maybe a 9. I can barely feel any difference between them. To the point where even just a slight lift on...

I don't think that's true. There's no reason the brake pedal can't use just as much regen as the accelerator pedal. In blended braking (which most manufacturers of EVs have), the brake pedal simply applies more regen slowing the harder you press up to the point where it's max'd out and you're...

Not sure what you mean by "safety concern if someone can do like regen + creep + whatever else has been tossed around". Safety concern how? Like the same person driving multiple cars that act differently? That's actually one of the reasons I prefer regen + creep, when we had one EV and one...

If you do like it off (you'll lose a lot of efficiency) part of the time, you can program the joker button on the steering wheel to rotate Regen between STANDARD, HIGH, and OFF.

You don't need 1PD to get instant slowing (i.e. when lifting up the accelerator pedal). That's just having regen on. 1PD is simply whether the car does the final stop after regen ends at about 3 MPH (HOLD mode), where it applies friction brakes for you rather than having to do the final stop...

Our Macan has a good blended brake pedal. Our Mach-E was pretty good at it too. There's some logic to being able to turn the regen off completely, but you give up a lot of efficiency. What's missing on the Gravity is a happy medium. Standard regen is still VERY strong, like an 8 on a 1-10...

Keep regen on STANDARD and turn on CREEP drive mode. That's the way many of us do it, that like 2PD rather than 1PD. Unfortunately Lucid still hasn't fixed the CREEP setting so that is saves to the driver profile (or stays the way it was last set), so you have to change it every time getting in...

Honestly, I only care if it's a road trip where range matters. For short drives close to home, I'm just plugging in at home on cheap residential rates. So I'm fine burning whatever juice to make the car comfortable. Much bigger deal on a long road trip with charging stops. But once the car is...

Emphasis on "another". What's this, #27 now? 😵‍💫

While true, I'm pretty happy with the level of engineering innovation they got to (motors, charging, aerodynamics), and they could probably live off that platform quite well for many years. IF they got the routine stuff correct. That's what's killing them, not the lack of engineering...

We have a 2nd car (Porsche Macan) and are retired so we decline the rental, but it's still a loss to be without my $110k car for the better part of a month so it's just not worth getting service unless it's something that really needs fixed. Plus we road trip nearly every month and the Gravity...

Yeah, since I was only doing one SC charge that trip, I thought I'd just use the more convenient P&C and forgo the discount. But when that failed and I had to activate through the Tesla app anyway, I went ahead and paid the $12.99 for this month, and charged a little longer so I actually saved...

Has it been confirmed that the longer reboot button hold is really a thing? In other words, is there really a 2nd "deeper" reboot, or was that just an assumption someone made early on and we've been running with it ever since (wishful thinking)? And if it is real, what does it really do...
