    Touring vs GT

    I have twice had the same experience. A Touring loaner while my AGT gets serviced. Agree, the Touring feels more nimble and towable. But I found myself missing the soft close doors. And the massage seats. And the glass cockpit. And the DDP. So as much as I enjoyed driving the Touring, I exhaled...

    Sharing a positive service experience

    Coldwater, Michigan? There is a Jason at that service center that has been great to work with for me.

    Second Service Center visit for my Air GT

    I just got my Air GT back from the Coldwater, Michigan Service Center. This was the second visit there for the car. For both visits Lucid sent a trailer to my home with a loaner vehicle. Both times the loaner was an Air Touring. The first time when my car was finished they returned my car to my...

    DDPro Hands Free--Won't work w Rear Accessories

    I could tell you horror stories of driving our Tesla Model Y with bikes on the rack. Remember, FSD is a camera only system. With the bikes on it the car thinks you’re being tailgated and tries to outmaneuver the tailgater. Use your imagination. My problem was, until fairly recently, the car...

    US carmakers should be terrified, including Lucid

    Beg to differ. They make a world beating hyper car even though the majority of their portfolio are trucks and SUVs. The EVs that GM has on the ground now are pretty darn good and getting better. Cadillac is already selling more EVs than ICE.

    Air software version 2.10.0

    I also installed without being plugged in to anything, not even L2. Was 77% at start of install, took 40 -45 minutes to install, was at 77% after install, all systems operating as before install.

    US carmakers should be terrified, including Lucid

    I addressed most of this in post #140. Other than that I will point out that every time the question is put in front of Mary Barra she says GM is still committed to an all-electric future GM will no longer put a date stamp on when that will happen but will continue to develop product with that...

    I can wax poetic about EV trucks and why they are what they are but it would be waaaay off-topic. Fascinating, but way off topic. I'll touch on it when an appropriate thread arises.

    US carmakers should be terrified, including Lucid

    What you say makes sense but I"m gonna totally disagree based on "insider" knowledge. From both sides of the table. When I was at GM I was in Product Portfolio Planning. Much of the reason I was able to toss out the numbers I tossed out. I dealt with them all the time. I am also aware of how...

    I've always suspected that damn Roomba of being a snitch.

    US carmakers should be terrified, including Lucid

    Actually, that's more of a short term problem. Go back 5 - 7 years... "The price of lithium blah blah blah" Since then the price of lithium has dropped significantly due to the volume of EVs being produced. The actual long-term advantage of building EVs will surface later. To illustrate that...

    Lucid (allegedely) hires AlixPartners as part of restructuring.

    Having just retired from being an automotive consultant I can honestly say that every engagement is different. Most of the engagements that I've worked involved acquiring data and information that the client's can't get on their own, providing insight on product markets where the client does not...
