Given all the management changes at Lucid and reevaluation of their priorities, I wonder if developing 3.0 for the Air is still going to be on the table. Would change the calculation on how valuable to CCCv2 upgrade is.

I agree Lucid did a great job with this marketing video and while I am not highly sensitive to the patriotic messaging of "Made in America," I still see it as a positive that ought to be touted. I've taken my Air to Cars and Coffee events, filled with "car guys" (and gals), and not a single...

As DeaneG pointed out, you are correct in your assumptions. There are 3 types of charging. Level 1 just means plugging into a normal wall outlet, same outlet you'd plug a lamp into. Very slow (about 4 miles of charge per hour) Level 2 is still AC charging, and the Tesla charger you have is...

FWIW, I bought my 2025 Air one year ago, on June 19th, 2025, and at that time there was not a peep about the 2026 Air yet either. I don't think anything about the 2026 model was announced until August. You might not be wrong about potential issues, but this timing seems to be the norm for them.

Totally agree but when Tim Cook took over, the iPhone was already a household name. There's still a business to be built at Lucid.

Oh I didn't assume that until he fired Emad 🤣. But I get your point and I am rooting for them... albeit cautiously.

Appreciate the education on elevator technology and I hope it bodes well for Lucid. I'm a stockholder, but I care far more about the impact on my Air ownership experience than on losing a little money in stock. And I still don't see how firing Emad helped anything (yes I know some of you will...

I'm not surprised they let Winterhoff go. I actually expected that would be one of the first moves. I never expected Dlala to be shown the door. This company has proven its engineering prowess, but hasn't delivered from an operational standpoint. So at its most elementary, you could say Dlala's...

As elementary and asinine as it seems, they did the exact same thing with the Air, releasing 2.9.2 with a bug that bricked some cars, then the patch to fix it was also 2.9.2.

If this was planned and amicable, his farewell message would've been released immediately, not days later, and the announcement from Lucid wouldn't have been so terse and corporate

If you work somewhere for ten years and are passionate and dedicated, you don't leave with no notice. Period. If he "wanted to spend more time with family" he would've either taken a diminished role or phased himself out of the organization in steps, and both of those things take months. You can...

Precisely. You work for a company you've sweat blood for over more than a decade, dedicated the best years of your career, invested yourself fully and intensely in the mission, then you just up and quit with no notice...?! Not a chance. I don't know Emad but from what I've seen in videos and...

There's not supposed to be a lightbar anymore, so that's one difference from the AI renders.

No SC as far as I am aware, just mobile service. Jason is the mobile service tech. He came to my house in Charleston last September and was great. I recently got a letter in the mail about the half-shaft recall (I have a 2025 Air Pure) and called to setup the appointment. Apparently Jason is...

I detailed cars when I was young (decades ago, so I know a thing or two but I'm not a detailer) and polished and ceramic coated my Air myself. I hand wash it basically every weekend. I'd second @borski 's ONR recommendation, but keep in mind it's rinseless, not waterless. Also, the drying towels...

There is no chime. It pops up a message on the left side of the screen (where you usually have your trip computer) and then after about ten seconds it goes away and you get a small warning light on the bottom right side of the screen. That warning light stays on the rest of the drive. You can...

I have an elementary school aged child too, so I definitely sympathize with the emotions swirling around when your kid gets hurt. The situation is certainly unfortunate. I have an Air, not a Gravity, and maybe seeing things in person would be clearer but I watched the video on your LinkedIn post...

That seems very odd and I have the exact opposite behavior. I hand wash my car basically every Saturday and in order to keep it from unlocking and stealing the music from my earphones to the car interior, I place my phone down (near the car) and push in the handle to lock it. As long as I don't...

Somewhat off-topic perhaps, but I laughed out loud when I read an article right after Tesla released their Cybercab in Austin. The article said the cabs were slamming on the brakes whenever near a police car. Immediately I knew what was up and cackled "The ****ing AI learned to panic brake by...

Neither my fob nor PAAK is totally reliable so I always carry both because the redundancy definitely makes my handles present much quicker. 90% of the time the handles are out when I reach the car, and if not I can't remember ever waiting more than 2 extra seconds. If I use just the fob or just...
