The other day, I somehow accidentally reset my Trip A counter on the pilot panel; I must’ve brushed that spot, perhaps as the display was retracting or coming out again. While losing my Trip A mileage is not the end of the world, it would feel like a bit of a disaster if the same thing happened...

2025 AT, DDPro. Not yet, but happy to wait my turn…

Good tips to have the AC coming out the foot area; that would seem to offer a supply of cool air for the seats to work with. In the past, I haven’t generally run the AC through the foot vents, but today (only the second day I’ve needed AC) I tried it, and it felt so good on my feet and shins as...

Curious what speed you set cruise to. Given your self-description, I’m guessing it’s not 65, or even 70…. So your 3mi/kWh is mostly ramping up and down speed as you have your highway fun? Or is it just that CC keeps you from “accidentally” cruising at 85? :cool:

Hard to really say, since most trips (until this week’s upcoming “spring tinge” tour on Maine’s back roads!) were on days a tad below freezing….and the early part of all trips includes either more stop and start driving in towns before hitting the more open rural stretches, or 20-40 miles of...

My experience with charging in a garage during the Maine winter (when the garage and resting cabin temperature was usually somewhere in the 20s or 30s, even when colder outside), the Lucid app would show a message saying that it was warming the battery to achieve optimal charging efficiency…...

For what it’s worth, I’ve found that when the CarPlay connection is moving slowly or seemingly hung, just quickly plugging it into the charging cable I have between the seats (which also works for connectivity) launches CarPlay instantly, and I can then unplug and proceed flawlessly from there...

I’m curious whether the Lucid display is big enough to accommodate the new option of three rows of app icons… that seems like the biggest enhancement of CarPlay in this update.

I did hear recently that there are numerous CarPlay issues with iOS 18.4. Enough so that the article I saw recommended not upgrading until they patch it (for those who use CarPlay). I would imagine the issues should be gone by 18.4.1, so keep your eye out for that. Found the article...

For what it’s worth, here in Maine people swear by using dryer fabric softener sheets for keeping rodents out of engine compartments and interiors of vehicles when they’re being stored for a few months. That almost looks like the type of area where they wouldn’t be in the way, or in danger of...

It’s odd that the Lucid build doesn’t cover that area with plastic. Nachos rodents, but water spray seems like it can get up in there. Does anyone have any thoughts about whether the air gap there would be serving any useful/essential purpose? It’s hard to imagine what that would be. (maybe...

Does that picture of the tire near the end of your set of photos show the gap that you think the rodents entered through? If so, I wonder if that could be the kind of thing that gorilla tape is perfect for….

My windshield fogged up rather suddenly for the first time the other day too. But as soon as I turned on the defroster it cleared right up. (I generally keep that toggled off; I think this is the first time I turned it on in the two months that I’ve owned the car) Did the problems that you to...

How heavy was the rain and snow, through which adaptive cruise kept working fine? (you’re getting my hopes up; I’ve been disappointed to see that it doesn’t seem to be possible to have basic “non-adaptive” cruise control when the radar/adaptive may be disrupted by precipitation)

Possibly key question: was this 40 miles shown WHILE using the on-board navigation That’s what I’m gathering is the “magic sauce” that offers real-world predictions. Using Apple or Google or ABRP won’t do the trick….it seems!? I’ve yet to charge in the wild, but continue to gather the...

On your commute, what’s your driving speed?

This was my takeaway as well. With charging infrastructure continuing to be built out (with or without DC’s $$), over the coming decade EVs won’t be seen as an iconoclastic or risky choice, and there’ll probably a lot more folks who don’t drive long distances who’ll be needing the cheaper...

Great suggestion. I’ll have to (try to) remember that…

What is this, and what does it do? Is it visibly perceptible, or change anything vis a vis wiper streaking or defrost?
