    Lucid Vehicles and the Secondary Market

    Lucid will almost certainly “last that long…” I am a LCID shareholder and while bankruptcy is a risk to be considered by investors, I believe it to be very unlikely. Saudi Arabia wants to be a major player in EVs they have taken Lucid this far they will not bail. If the walked away from Lucid...

    Lucid Vehicles and the Secondary Market

    Efficiency does not seem to bother people yet. However, many are still driving their first EV. When they realize how poor their actual range is they will probably look for more efficient vehicles for subsequent purchases. This is where Lucid will shine in the long run. I have no evidence to...

    Lucid Vehicles and the Secondary Market

    Actually, I also believe that the Taycan is a flop — not because of lack of sales but because of horrendous lack of efficiency. It’s one of the least efficient EVs on sale. Lousy range and small battery. I had a deposit on one before any shipped and cancelled my order when I saw how poorly it...

    Lucid Vehicles and the Secondary Market

    I am not looking to flip a Lucid, I bought one to drive. So far I am 13,870 miles in and happy. Not a single service visit for problems. It's been the most reliable new car I have purchased in that regard. I took it back this week for a routine maintenence service -- rotate tires, new wiper...

    CarPlay is here! - Megathread

    Sorry that you are having this issue. Alexa works well for me to make calls from my iPhone list. You have provably already tried this, but you may want to try deleting your iPhone entirely from the Air and then re-pairing it.

    Consumer Reports First Look at the Air

    Agree about the whine but is is louder than a Tesla. It's only at slow speeds though.

    Consumer Reports First Look at the Air

    I have the 19" for range and ride. My Air handles potholes just fine.

    Rumor: Saudi PIF is buying all of Lucid and taking them private

    Great point. The PIF managers are very smart. They realize this as well.

    Rumor: Saudi PIF is buying all of Lucid and taking them private

    I disagree. That would 1) empower the rumor creator -- and encourage more hoaxes and 2) potentially get Lucid in trouble with the SEC or with civil litigation. Lucid was wise to ignore and simply to state that they do not comment on rumors or speculation. Just ask Elon, he was on trial for...

    Rumor: Saudi PIF is buying all of Lucid and taking them private

    As a shareholder and a Lucid Air GT daily driver here is my take. In brief: 1. I think that this is a very shaky rumor at best. No one knows if the rumor is true or not. Also, since it was reported second hand from a pay only blog in the UK called “Betaville”, no one even knows if rumor is a...

    SiriusXM Megathread

    I would just like it to be stable. I find issues when going from Wi-Fi in my garage to cellular. It is much better now later in the beta period but still delays when going between Wi-Fi and cellular. I have not had to do one of your namesake resets for a long time for SiriusXM. That tells me...

    SiriusXM Megathread

    Still a local 3 min buffer would mean you are listening 3 min behind the satellite feed which is at times annoying for news, business and sports. The buffer should be dynamic based upon cellular connectivity conditions.

    Thankfully SiriusXM is still working for me as of this morning. 1/25/23.

    Worst New Car Ownership/Customer Experience Ever

    I have been a Hertz Gold member for years. Hertz is generally good with customer service. If I had a Hertz rental with these issues, I would simply drive it back to Hertz at the nearest airport and they would swap it out. No need to endure pot odors in the car. Often when I take my Porsche in...

    Worst New Car Ownership/Customer Experience Ever

    I am 12,800 in and zero issues. Have never been back to the Scottsdale delivery center since I drove off with my new Air GT. Not saying this to gloat on those having issues, but just trying to provide balance and perspective. I hope that Lucid fixes any issues quickly and to the owners satisfaction.

    BMW CEO declares its EVs will soon be the ‘benchmark’ in charging, range, and pricing

    Solid batteries are no where near ready for use in EVs. BMW has invested in $SLDP. I also own shares in them. Probably 10 years or more before usable in EVs.

    BMW CEO declares its EVs will soon be the ‘benchmark’ in charging, range, and pricing

    As the article says... "Show, don't tell." BMW lags behind Lucid and Tesla. I expect that they will stay there.

    Perhaps there are differences. I have never had any serious camera issue. Just sometimes comes up more slowly than I would like. But I have not experienced the issues described.

    Hello from Southern CA

    You will find this forum to be a great resource. I am now at 12,800 miles and have not been back to the service/delivery center since I took delivery.
