It used to be that you could just add an aftermarket hitch and wire-in a controller yourself. Nowadays many modern cars do more than just control the trailer lights and physically connect the trailer. They often also change drive settings in the vehicle to "tow mode" which impacts all sorts...

Yeah if you are leasing and won't use the hitch then I agree its wasted money.

Its difficult to put a number on it, but I strongly suspect that the tow hitch on an SUV will pay for itself in better resale value. I suspect (but don't know) that adding a hitch to these after the fact will not be simple or cheap.

What color wrap are you planning on?

I find that I need to insert the charger into the Lucid with a little more gusto than I need to with our BMW. My wife often doesn't give it quite enough force when plugging in the Lucid and it will appear to start charging but will give an error later. The fix is to unplug and replug it in...

Tahoe is my favorite.

I'm a little surprised the orders placed so far in this thread don't include the towing package. If the plan is to lease and you don't tow, then I get that saving the $750 is worth it. But if you are buying, the $750 gives you that added flexibility, and likely increases resale. I suspect...

I've only done about 1,000 miles on mine so far, but no problems. For one of my other non-Lucid vehicles, the nearest service center was (until recently) a six hour drive away in San Diego. I had to get service done a couple of times and did that by planning a weekend away. The dealership...

I don't know how Lucid will handle this, but when I ordered my Ineos Grenadier, Ineos finally revealed all the options and features (and pricing) on the configurator the day they opened reservations. So you "built" what you wanted to order and your build was what you were reserving...

At the end of Q3 2024, Tesla had already sold 28,250 cyber trucks. So I guess the willingness to spend this kind of money is there.

I'm not aware of Lucid having treated lessees any different than purchasers in the past, so I'd be surprised if they started with Gravity orders.

The Gipsy Kings are not mediocre!! Ohh that hurts!

I bought the EcoFlow alternator charger and installed it in my Grenadier that I use with my Delta 2 Max for camping and keeping my refrigerator running. When the engine is running the alternator charger recharges the Delta 2 Max at 800w, it’s been very effective. I wonder if there is a way for...

The XC90 would probably be my choice for teaching a new driver out of those.

My issue with the Tycan is the looks. I can't help but see it as an unpleasantly deformed 911.

I don't recommend it from a financial standpoint, but if you don't have the cash to get out of the lease, and you aren't willing to sit on it, and you have your heart set on another vehicle already, then your path of least resistance (not the financially best path) is to discuss this with the...

I would order a charging cable to keep in the car for emergencies and use at home until your charger arrives and gets installed. I look at the cable (with a 110v adapter) as an insurance policy, worse case scenario I can plug into a 110 outlet and slow charge. I always keep the charging...

I don't think the competitors are necessarily limited to electric vehicles. I'd guess its the Q7.

Congratulations!!

This is an old article That's an old article, from November 2023. I remember that it was debunked and turned out to be design project for an art school. I can't find that debunking article though.
