    4 Rusted Rotors

    My wheels have always had that rust on the inner ring as well. I would have preferred to take the aero caps off permanently, but dealing with the rust and brake dust and dirt was just too much of a hassle for me. In hindsight I should have had my car delivered either 21's and ordered the 19's...

    Solar for Charging Purposes

    Could it be that the API is showing usable capacity instead of gross?

    Solar for Charging Purposes

    We had a 21 panel array added to our new home in March of last year. Since then we've generated about 30% more energy than we've used, although with fees, differences in usage versus generation rates, and a rate plan change, we still have at least a small electrical bill each month. But it about...

    Solar for Charging Purposes

    Very cool stuff! Mostly mumbo jumbo to me, so I went ahead with option 1 and submitted the data in case it's helpful. Thank you!

    Solar for Charging Purposes

    Is there a how-to guide on how to access this? I'd be curious to see this data for my own car.

    FWIW, I think learning about the limits of what each car is capable of at its limits and what current technology as a whole is capable of really interesting, even though it usually has little impact on real world practicality or usability in general. Of course simply judging a car by its peak...

    Thanks for sharing! I realize most people here aren't that interested in the nerdy charging data, but I find it fascinating, especially how the different pack sizes and cell types compare at their limits. I've gone through several dozen DCFC sessions, and all the major issues I've seen have been...

    Out of curiosity, when's the last time you saw over 300kW with a GT? Or was that recently?

    I guess my sarcasm didn't come across. 😆 I agree that slowing down and taking it easy is often the best strategy for long distance travel, and that it doesn't take too much effort to get close to EPA numbers with favorable conditions. The Air is still amazingly efficient when given the chance.

    But you can only be that efficient by driving responsibly at reasonable speeds. If I'm not going 20+ over the limit in Sprint mode, am I really even driving?

    Perhaps weakening of the curve wasn't the best choice of words. Also, thank you for adding the extra information and context. However, I have documented evidence that at least the peak charging speed of my car is lower now than when I first took delivery. Does this affect the curve or total time...

    2024 Grand Touring changes and release

    Eh, nothing to be embarrassed about. I trust Lucid made these changes for good reason, even if I do wish they had been more transparent about it, and I think the cars still charge acceptably well even after the changes. I do have a fellow GT owner that's local that I could maybe setup a...

    2024 Grand Touring changes and release

    Happy to see others have found that thread helpful! I think it's been well-observed that there was a definite weakening of the charging curve due to software updates at least for Touring and likely Pure. Anecdotally, I think that similar changes are being seen with GT. Interestingly...

    USAA Lucid Experience

    I've been wondering how this whole thing has been progressing. I'm really sorry to hear how poorly it's been going and that you're still Lucidless. I sincerely hope that things work out soon. Still hoping to join you for some fun east coast drives someday!

    Air Touring 1 month review

    I think there's a handful of owners that have had this persist after multiple wheel replacements, so I'm thinking this is a more isolated and difficult to diagnose problem. When I've had the wheel replaced its great for a week or two, but the clicking inevitably comes back. It really spoils the...

    Air Touring 1 month review

    Just to add another perspective to this issue, the attached video was taken by me last week. I've had my steering wheel replaced twice now, but the clicking when applying lateral pressure to the wheel persists. It's noticeabley worse when the car has been outside in direct sunlight.

    12V failure and what to do.

    Kudos to you for sticking around to help out, and for the good summary of how to get access to the 12V, which we should all know how to do just in case. As EV drivers we all need to look out for each other. Hopefully with Gravity and beyond the procedure for jumping the 12V will be a little...

    Any Utah Owners?

    If it's a defect or issue covered under warranty it would be at no cost to you.

    Any Utah Owners?

    Also, congrats! @Volund and I are both on the west side of the valley, so hopefully we'll spot each other on the road soon.
