    DFW Area Lucid Tinting

    I did get the car tinted and it made a world of difference with heat. Did every glass surface to the legal limit for surfaces that have a legal limit, and where there is no limit I did it to match the other glass. It looks great on a black car.

    Bi-directional Charging Install in DFW

    I've put the bi-directional install on hold as I will sell the vehicle. As hard as I may try, this 6'4", 290 lb., 68 yo body just doesn't like getting in and out of the Air. My wife cringes everytime I get in or out. I do love the car but don't want to risk a back repetitive stress injury...

    What is your reason for getting a Lucid Air?

    I don’t think anyone has mentioned bi-directional charging. My reasons were EV, range, bi-directional in that order. I believe the next 10 years will see a significant shift in self reliance for energy as I dont see the grid keeping up with electric demand. I believe many homeowners will...

    1,000 Mile Review - Outstanding Vehicle...But

    Thank you for sharing your age. I've had a couple of family members tell I'm too old to be experimenting with a new EV company and vehicle...as well as being too old to install solar and bi-directional charging. With the solar panels the advice was "why get it, you'll be gone before it can pay...

    12V Failure

    My experience in the garage is the time from notification to dying is 10 minutes. I recall reading elsewhere on this board that a software change was made to make the time be 10 minutes rather than an imminent shutdown.

    1,000 Mile Review - Outstanding Vehicle...But

    XPEL in dallas nera Love Field. Knowledgable people, had done multiple Airs before mine. Clean shop with quite a few exotic vehicles. I was impressed. In the last two weeks we've had a number of sunny days with with temps approaching 100 and the tint handled it without issue. The temps were...

    1,000 Mile Review - Outstanding Vehicle...But

    Having just reached 1000 miles I thought I'd offer my thoughts on the Air. No need to go over features etc as those things are covered in other posts. They are also covered in youtube and other reviews. This is simply to give my thoughts on new learnings I've had actually owning the vehicle...

    12V Failure

    A Lucid Mobile Tech telephoned at 8:30AM to say he would be leaving for my home right after we finish our conversation, and should arrive around 10:15AM. He told me Houston engineers had reviewed the logs and determined the vehicle is headed to Houston, and the flatbed would be arriving around...

    12V Failure

    Great question. After posting I did a search on this 12V issue and found comments about a possible link between fast charging and 12V failure. I did fast charge that day....it was my 5th fast charging session since having the car. This fast charge, as well as 1 of the prior 4 fast charge...

    12V Failure

    Happened in the garage so no safety concerns. Contacted Customer Care shortly after it happened on Saturday. Unfortunately Service in Houston closed at 4PM on Saturday so I won't speak to them until Tuesday morning. My question for others is whether or not Mobile Service can replace the 12V...

    Canopy Pros Cons

    I second the post by Percentage. Had the GT for a few days (105+ temps and sunny) and the AC couldn’t keep up. With the ceramic tint and milder weather (98-102 and sunny) the AC has been enough.

    Idling and External Lights

    My car is currently getting ppf and tinting so I can’t try this until Friday Night. What if you run the AC as you would if you are in a restaurant and want the car cool when you come back….I think that is for 45 minutes. I’m guessing the lights aren’t on then….but if the AC is running...

    Project Gravity (Lucid Motors SUV) Page Now Live

    Current GT owner, just added my name to the waitlist. While I am not impressed with the photos of Gravity, I can see advantages of Gravity over Air with the way I would use the vehicle. Not sure I would make a reservation, but if I continue to be impressed with the GT I can easily see...

    EA Rant!

    And there it is! Thank you! Now I am doubting it's accuracy.....Denton, TX....6 chargers, 1 in use, 5 ready. Hmmmmm...been there twice....each time at least two chargers were down...maybe more but the third try worked each time. Thanks again.

    EA Rant!

    OK, I'm stumped. Where in the app do I get the status of each charging unit at the EA geographic location? Thanks for your help!

    How to invoke Apple CarPlay?

    Just got the Air and I'm perplexed by something...undoubtedly due to a lack of knowledge. Unlike the car the Air is replacing, it appears the Air does not have its own IP address that I can see and access. Is that correct? If that is correct, what does the car use to receive navigation...

    Garage door opener issue

    I don't know as I have never had this problem. I would contact the manufacturer of the garage door motor for advice. I'm guessing they will sell you a replacement (probably available at Amazon/Home Depot/Lowes as well...I'd ask them to replace at no cost since you are a loyal customer!) They...

    EVAdventuresRob GT Destroyed

    I follow that youtuber and it was sad to see the damage. It made me realize what I might miss the most from the S Class...weather maps (Sirius XM weather, perhaps 5 minute updates) showing tornados, hail, snow, rain and wind speed/direction. The periodic updates allow you to follow the storm...
