    How to cut 'Hands-Free' DDP 'Pay Attention' notices - A revelation I had today!

    All I can say is that once I got my seat and steering wheel in the right position, I was able to see more of the dashboard visuals than I could before. As for getting scolded for taking your eyes off the road for a second... I think that was one of the unnecessary notifications that went away...

    Air GPS Randomly to the Sides

    Well, I do have two Teslas and a Rivian mysteriously parked in my backyard... All kidding aside, DDP does uses the GPS to the extent that Drive Assist will not engage unless the GPS tells the DDP system that the vehicle is on an approved highway. My GPS was frozen a few months ago, and Drive...

    How to cut 'Hands-Free' DDP 'Pay Attention' notices - A revelation I had today!

    Thanks for the feedback! I took delivery on a pair of cheap-ass sunglasses yesterday. Non-polarized lenses with high UV protection, a light gradient brown tint and no mirroring. (I don't know about their IR transmittance.) I'll report back on how they perform. (I have nice pairs of Maui Jim...

    Three-year review. 2023 Lucid Air Touring

    A remarkably similar experience overall with my 2023 Pure AWD with DDP and SSP. My car was both built and delivered in 11/23, and I currently have 21,277 miles on the odometer. I just ran the API, and you are the first person I have seen on the forum to have me beat on battery performance. I...

    How to cut 'Hands-Free' DDP 'Pay Attention' notices - A revelation I had today!

    Sorry, but I'm giving this one 'bump' back to the top of the heap. I honestly thought that this discovery might actually be useful to some people who struggle with getting their face in the right position for DDP. Anyway, with 100 views and not one reply, it was already buried three tabs deep...

    Lag in Driving Visualization & Adaptive Cruise Control Response

    I really don't mean to belabor the point, but I imagine it is possible that ACC relies on all or part the DDP sensor suite, when available, so what you experience using ACC may differ, for better or worse, from how ACC will perform on a non-DDP-equipped vehicle. Just sayin...

    Lag in Driving Visualization & Adaptive Cruise Control Response

    Thanks for the clarification. I figured that you might very well have been talking about Drive Assist, whether hands-free or not, but was confused when you called it Adaptive Cruise Control, which I imagine will perform differently on Airs with vs. without the DDP sensor suite. The terminology...

    Lag in Driving Visualization & Adaptive Cruise Control Response

    I may be wrong, but isn't it possible that the OP does not even have DDPro, in which case the vehicle would not have the full sensor suite, or that the vehicle does have DDPro and Drive Assist is not engaged? The OP's questions are about Adaptive Cruise Control. Seems to me that, even with the...

    How to cut 'Hands-Free' DDP 'Pay Attention' notices - A revelation I had today!

    Recent improvements to DDP capabilities and the thought of less sensitive notification protocols had me back to playing with DDP. OTA 2.8.30 did seem to help a bit with the 'Pay Attention' notices, but I was still getting quite a few. That led me to trying something that I'll need to explain...

    3.0 on Air

    Them Lucid accountants are working on it night and day! :-) Coming up on two months since Nick Twork made the announcement. Meanwhile, the CCCv2 continues to happily reside in the $$$ store just fine.

    Spare tire

    If you buy one of these spares, I suggest that you buy a jack ratchet that is more robust than the plastic & metal ones that typically come in the associated kits. The jack handled the vehicle's weight, just fine but despite being properly used, the flimsy jack ratchet could not handle the...

    Must have Lucid Air accessories

    The fit was very tight, but what used to bother me more was how quickly my phone would get very hot. So much so that I thought it was probably bad for the phone.

    Must have Lucid Air accessories

    Good catch! The trunk well liner too! Wouldn't want two gallons of milk spilling into the high voltage battery pack, no less stinking up the car to high heaven. (Happened with my Lexus when we forgot a gallon of milk in the trunk on a 110 degree Arizona day. Found it two or three days later...

    A suggestion for the Mods... Add a 'Not-On-Topic' emoji...

    You raise a valid point, but I think your proposal would put an unfair burden on the replying person to search for an appropriate thread for the errant post, while the emoji is essentially asking the errant poster to find what they think is an appropriate place for their own post. Also, a reply...

    Hey, @BrianBigNFun! Thanks for coming up with a perfectly great illustration of what I was talking about, and a hilarious read to boot. Much appreciated!

    I see many threads quickly spiral 'off-topic' following a comment that is well-intended, but irrelevant to the discussion at hand. These are often quite useful comments in the right place, such as either a new thread or a more closely-aligned existing thread. Not only does the original...

    An Air UX 3.x Question for you Software Pros...

    These comments are all very worthy of discussion, but frankly not 'on topic' for this thread. As the OP, I would much appreciate it if you would consider continuing them either on a new thread or an appropriate existing thread. Thanks!

    Air Version 2.8.30

    You mean like... "CAUTION! HOBO AHEAD!"? I hate it when that pops up on the screen!
