    Hunting wild Lucid Airs

    Actually, if you visit Lucid HQ, you’ll see a number of Teslas in the parking lot. Some of them used to work there. Some are just EV fans. Most probably can’t afford a Lucid. Yet. I suspect it’ll look a lot different after midsize ships.

    Wireless Carplay sound quality

    Wired, wireless, either way, there's no way CarPlay should sound worse than FM radio. Something is up with your car. Or your phone.

    Lucid x Apple = CarPlay 2

    So I saw this today. Maybe there's still hope for CarPlay 2 after all. Of note: This is just a filing, with a mockup from Apple, in the EU. It's not any sort of indication that Audi is definitely working on implementing this. But it is an indication that Apple is still pursuing it, since this...

    Tesla FSD

    My favorite part of that article: "Cruise reportedly staffed about 1.5 workers per vehicle." So decades of software work, billions of dollars, and you still need more people to operate a "driverless" car than a regular one.

    Biden Administration to Lend $6 Billion for Rivian E.V. Factory

    I'm all for keeping Rivian alive. If they need the money, give it. It's a loan, not a handout. Tesla certainly got more in their early years. More American car companies making EVs exclusively is a good thing for everyone.

    2025 Air Touring or should I go up to GT?

    The back footwell is probably the one advantage of the Touring over the GT. It is most certainly less comfortable back there for your back seat passengers. And it's not a small thing. Sit back there for four hours and your knees will feel the difference. I'm never back there, but I do cart...

    Floor mat safety issue

    I had no idea they now make ones with the posts. I'm guessing these are only compatible with 2025 model cars?

    Floor mat safety issue

    I got the ceramic ones for my Santa Cruz interior. They match great. Prior to that I had the graphite, and they looked good, too. The ceramic shows dirt and shoe scuffs way more easily, of course. But I don't mind scrubbing them often to keep them mostly clean.

    Lucid x Apple = CarPlay 2

    The future of CarPlay 2 is very much up in the air at this point. The fact no car company has shipped this at all is not a good sign. Chances are, companies are hoping for more data being sent in both directions between the phone and car, and Apple isn't budging. Also, from what I read briefly...

    Congrats. Nice ride.

    Floor mat safety issue

    I assume you mean the rubber all-weather mats? I really wish those would velcro or fasten onto the floor the way the carpet mats do. I haven't had mine slide that far forward. So far, mine only seems to shift to the right as I'm stepping in. I tried at one point to stick some velcro patches...

    Gravity; SUV or Minivan

    Could not agree more. The whole minivan debate is so silly to me. It looks better than any SUV, Truck, Minivan, Thing-that's-not-a-sedan out there to me. Given how much ugly there is in today's automotive industry, this is a breath of fresh air. People can make fun of you and call it a...

    Charging at NACS Superchargers

    You didn't even mention the cables, which are often not labeled, and most definitely are not all the same in functionality, despite having the same connectors. Some can only transmit power. Some can only do slower USB speeds. Some do Thunderbolt speed. It kills me when people complain that...

    Mobile key lost connection and won't re-pair as a key

    This is the only reason I use the fob and not mobile key. I use the frunk every single day. And I need an easy way to open it from ouside the car. Period. The mobile app is just never going to be as convenient as holding down the fob button for this.

    Thank you all!

    Factory reset is a very bad idea. Do not do this unless instructed to by a service rep.

    Gravity to be in “select” studios this spring

    I wouldn't be shocked if they don't have any Gravity in showrooms until March. It really depends on preorders. How many they have to build. If it's between a customer who has already plunked down $1k and a studio, they're going to deliver to the customer in the short term. I know that sounds...

    Lucid Home Charger Delayed

    Not really. Other manufacturers have done the same. I never used mine at all until recently. If you have an L2 at home and use L3 for road trips, the chances you'll actually need that cable are pretty slim. Don't get me wrong; it's nice to have in a pinch, and I probably would have bought one...

    Lucid Home Charger Delayed

    Doesn't exist as a purchasable product. Might be easier and more accurate to just say "Temporarily out of stock."

    New purchase questions/advice

    I do wish the telescoping went just a bit further. I'm only 6'2", but even I could benefit from it being longer.
