    Lucid out of the list for Supercharge spring 2024 release

    The issue for me is that we have so few CCS available that I'll take a crappy 50 kW to get me to a CCS charger in an emergency if I am on a road trip. I'm hoping to make my NH-to-CA trip this summer, and .... any port in a storm. It's better than an L2.

    Lucid out of the list for Supercharge spring 2024 release

    So the two options on the Tesla App apparently are: "Superchargers open for other EVs" - "This Supercharger is Open to Tesla and Other EVs with CCS compatibility" (for the non-Blessed/Magic Dock Superchargers). "Superchargers open for NACS" - "This Supercharger is Open to Tesla and NACS...

    A Total Eclipse from the Car!!!! (New England Spring Lucid Rally)

    I want to apologize if anyone thinks my statement about heading to NH instead of Burlington is splintering an otherwise more cohesive "rally" for the eclipse. I encourage those who can make it to the larger actual gathering in Burlington to go and meet so many more of our local crowd! I am in no...

    Oops, I wanted to add in the map and NH town listings for the Totality.

    A Total Eclipse from the Car!!!! (New England Spring Lucid Rally)

    I might take a recon trip up beforehand to check out the lay of the land. I could sit out on my upper deck at home and watch the 95% coverage, but what's the fun in that?

    New Owner - Boston

    Welcome (from NH).... @Dortreo has proposed some locations in Burlington, VT, for a meetup and several people are attending. I'm passing on this go-round and be "not seeing the sun" from closer to home in the North Country of NH. I hope you can meet the folks in Burlington - always great to meet...

    A Total Eclipse from the Car!!!! (New England Spring Lucid Rally)

    I'm probably just going to take a drive up to the area and pack a picnic lunch (I expect the available restaurants to be packed). After that, I'm basically going to look for a nice open place off the road with a nice view of the sky. The North Country is expecting an influx of thousands of...

    A Total Eclipse from the Car!!!! (New England Spring Lucid Rally)

    Thanks for the invite, but I already had plans to view it near Lancaster, NH, which is quite a bit closer to home. Hope everyone has a great time!

    Wisconsin owners will be getting EV stickers for their license plates.

    I will preface that I agree that EVs should not get a free ride, and just about everyone will come up with a complaint on how calculations should be/are being made to pay for roads, construction, and maintenance. If it were to be per kWh, if you charge your car and it sits for a while, you'd be...

    Lucid is changing my HV battery

    Mine was built in May 2022. It was in Chicago in August 2022, homeless, because the person who ordered it cancelled his/her order, and it was then shipped to Boston where I picked it up at the beginning of September 2022. Battery error was diagnosed at @24K miles in October 2023.

    5 months on.

    I think something happened with the latest update. Everything was fine until I turned on the tilting mirrors after a couple days. After that the turn signal mirrors didn't work, and then the 360 degree view stopped working and I got the same error: "Pilot screen surround view monitoring error...

    USAA Lucid Experience

    I had an accident near the end of 2022 and am insured with USAA. There was a lot of initial confusion over getting estimates, etc, but that was ironed out. (At that point Lucid really was a unicorn.) I ended up with $97K of damage (an initial estimate of $50K and then a $49K supplemental), but...

    Cold weather battery tips

    My garage is at 38 degrees, and the car has been plugged in for the past two days. I'm not sure how well this is actually protecting the battery.

    Cold weather battery tips

    Roads were too crappy to want to drive the LUCID the past couple days, and I kept it plugged in. My garage is not heated but is insulated, and for the third time this winter I have seen the blue coloring and warning of limited power due to cold, even as the car has been at 80% when I got in.

    New HV Battery

    When they notified me that my HV battery needed to be replaced last Fall (@24K miles), it was on a 2-out-of-5 level, so not an emergency. They try to get them early. It took them a couple weeks to get my car on the schedule, but my car continued to drive fine until they were able to replace it...

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    I've had my AGT for over a year, and I've only needed to use an EA station fewer than a dozen times. I charge at home 99% of the time. Maybe a dozen times I've been out and about and under 50% and figured I was near an EA charger, so why not "top up" (typically at least an hour from home). I...

    Winter Car Wash Lessons Learned

    Took my car for a wash before the upcoming storm (For obvious reasons shown below, she'll stay tucked in the garage), with temps at 22 degrees (not counting windchill). I got home and the frunk was frozen shut. I was starting to worry the beef I had bought to make stew would be in there till...

    Android Auto Thursday

    I actually don't even care about AA anymore, but I would like the Google Maps to replace the current system, and maybe even have a fully mapped route with any/all stops load into the NAV system. There are a number of locations I go to where the system literally does not recognize an address, and...

    USB Media Guidelines and Tips!

    OK, I took a beverage and my laptop out to the car this evening and gradually added folders/albums onto the 32GB USB I had, checking to see if it loaded after each batch. I managed to get about 3GB of music on it before it got stuck in the loop. This included adding about 50 songs that were...
