    First EV? Kind of surprising

    Yes - judging by the frequency that Lucid send out the OTA (not counting Tesla, it's more than ALL manufacturers combined in the last two years !!!), I am confident that Lucid will have most major issues addressed within a year or two. Most of our cars would come Q2/Q3 this year so we might live...

    First EV? Kind of surprising

    Lot of people in my family will be moving over - myself included (hopefully Lucid improve the SW quickly). See pix of us when we gather at our grandma house. All together, 23 Teslas in extended family .... Myself and some of my cousins did the Lucid test-drive. All impressed with the build...

    Current Functionality of DreamDrive Pro

    I used to love autopilot on my MYP. However, after the third phantom brake incident, my family was quite shaken and I agreed not to use it again until Tesla confirm that the problem is well understood & fixed.

    Whistling AC

    I encountered the same thing on my test drive. Was surprised that the SA stated that it was normal (!!), while another one said that it was a preproduction car and the issue would not happen on the production car.

    Touring Standard Equipment

    I downgraded from the GT to Touring for one simple reason (but is a big deal to us): REAR LEGROOM. Have two big boys, and want them to be comfortable on the back seat. I went with many cool options though: glassroof, big wheels... 620hp is more than enough for us ...

    Electric Rates, Let’s Share

    Our rate with SCE (We live in the OC, SoCal) ranges from $0.28 to $0.46, depending on the total monthly usage. We have solar, hence just net-meter, and aren't charged based on TOU (Time Of Usage). We just upgraded our solar system, from 25 panels to 40 panels (were debating between the Tesla...

    Blind Reviews

    Blind is an anonymous review site - and by nature, people go in there and spread toxic & nasty reviews without worrying about consequences. It's almost like a dark-ground place for disgruntled employees. Pick any company, then read the review on Blind, you'll see mostly rants & nasty comments...

    Tri-Motor Lucid crushes the quarter mile [2020]

    They don't have to. The Plaid really had 1.9 at the regular tracks. They just have to be faster than the Plaid - basically, two cars show up at the track and the Air outrun the Plaid, just as the Rimac did.

    Some odds and ends

    This sale was scheduled. He just received a large batch of RSU, and it's quite standard that the sale was often scheduled along to pay for tax....

    Huge Rivian Price Hike

    I think Rivian handled the price-change communication poorly. I was able to log in, and changed from quad-motor to dual-motor (still AWD anyway) and just with a bit lesser battery (300mi to 260mi), and got the price REDUCED around $2K compared to the original price! The reality is very few will...

    Huge Rivian Price Hike

    Try the Escalade ESV - my boys love it :-)

    Huge Rivian Price Hike

    Mine went from $80K to $96K - I'm contemplating canceling. Always thought the whole point of RSV is to lock into the price/features. I think Rivian handles this whole price increase quite poorly - and simply gave startup EV a bad rap I saw Elon Musk mocking Rivian for this price increase...

    Are we getting our cars

    A friend of mine ordered the Tesla X - his estimated delivery time has changed 5 times (sometimes back to back). Originally, he was supposed to get it last Nov. He just got another update. Aug 2022 now... It's not Tesla's fault either. The supply chain problem for the car industry will take...

    2021 Q4 earnings report

    The AlfaRomeo dealer near my house (which also sells a lot of exotic Italian cars - from Buggati to 480...) just closed its door. It has no car to sell. The inventory went from having 100s cars down to teen and now to none. My wife's friend is an accountant there and she said there are no words...

    Air Dream Deliveries?

    Why are you so obsessed with DE# ? Shouldn't this be a forum where people discuss purchase/drive/service experience?

    Dimensions of Air vs. Tesla S vs. MB EQS

    This helps to explain why the Air is so roomy inside

    Do you think Lucid should build an exclusive charging network like Rivian & Tesla?

    Most the issues people experienced with EA should be addressed over time. They have the backbone (high-power connectivities) in place, it's more or less the software & charge stations problem that they will work through. Also just a matter of time before Tesla open up their supercharger to...

    Hardware differences between AGT and DE engines?

    From what I'm told, it's all the same motor, just different software tune (similar to what Tesla did with the "Acceleration Boost" on the Y/3)
