    Okay, I still choose the Air, but…

    Borksi or Tribbletrouble, does your Gravity have the towing package? If so, I'm curious which kind of electrical plug for trailers the Gravity has.

    David Lickfold Does a Deep Dive on Gravity Driving Dynamics

    I don't disagree. But it's also a bit of black magic to figure out which tire is ideal for a certain vehicle and certain driving patterns. Consumer Reports is so influential with tire choices because they boil it down it a handful of digestible ratings, and you just pick the highest rated tire...

    Should I order 5 or 7 seats?

    This is may be my own personal quirk, but I really like being able to stock the vehicle with a variety of tools/supplies in under-floor storage. Everything from a first aid kit, a few essential tools, some tow hitch components, a tube of tow ball grease, a roll of shop towels, some collapsible...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    I've seen a couple of passing mentions to it in the press coverage of the Gravity, but nothing that really explains what it is. And one article stated that the Dream edition would be coming after the Touring was launched. So even press people don't seem to know much about it.

    What's the number of years and annual mileage for that residual?

    Tire/Wheel Discussion

    I haven't seen the Tire Rack tests before. But, they do confirm my sense of what the best tire for me is: CrossClimate 2. I'm looking for a tire that performs great in the snow, while still being perfectly acceptable in warmer conditions. I do a lot of driving between San Francisco and Lake...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    Neither range nor charging speed competes well either. I generally respect C&D's opinions about cars. But I note that them ranking the Gravity behind the iX is from before they had a chance to actually test the vehicle. So I don't necessarily expect their ranking to change, but I'll be...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    My opinion is that the Gravity will depreciate rapidly, but I don't expect substantial price cuts over the next year for a new Gravity. If you look at what the Air GT is being offered at, it's inline with the Gravity launch pricing. But if you mean that Lucid will be offering attractive lease...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    That's okay, I'm not really expecting to finance the purchase anyway. To me, it doesn't make sense to borrow money to purchase a rapidly depreciating asset. The Gravity is a luxury car, and I'm assuming I'll pay cash for it. I'd be happy to get the $7500 EV incentive, but considering my...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    It's unrealistic to expect them to make more than incremental improvements in the Air sales volume. That's fundamentally a low volume niche of the market, and they've already taken a pretty healthy share of the available demand. Substantial volume expansion is probably only possible by selling...

    Gravity Owner AMA - 4/5/25, 12PM-2PM PT

    I've seen a few people musing about getting a wrap for the Gravity. Surely someone makes a wrap with wood panels down the side. :p

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    I've hemmed and hawed, and decided to stick with my GT order. I'm sure I'd enjoy the extra horsepower, but I really don't need it, and my frequent road-tripping causes me to value range over power. Especially when the power of the GT is still impressive.

    Should I order 5 or 7 seats?

    I sort of fall into that thinking, but I'd put it a different way: if you never need the carrying capacity, whether for cargo or people, does the vehicle make sense? In my case, the carrying capacity need is more about cargo than people, which is why the 2 row config makes sense. On the flip...

    Should I order 5 or 7 seats?

    Okay, you can't leave it at that, you have to report how the fit test worked out! I too travel with dogs. And while I'm not a wheelchair user myself, my sister has one. So I'm very curious. But I'm also assuming it went well. I currently drive an ICE Toyota Highlander, and can make that...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    My working assumption is that the leasing costs are going to completely eat up the $7500 savings. I agree that one can counter-balance that somewhat by calculating the investment return on the money you saved by not paying cash up-front. I'd like to have Lucid clearly disclose the financing...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    I've never leased a vehicle, always just purchased. For me, I can afford to pay cash, and so any form of financing makes the vehicle more expensive. I'm not sure my thinking is particularly sophisticated here, but I really only see two potential benefits to leasing: 1) If the interest rate...

    Should I order 5 or 7 seats?

    I fall firmly into the 5 seats camp, and that's how I placed my order. My household is two adults and two dogs. With the 5 seat config, we already have 3 extra seats for passengers, which seems like plenty. We take a lot of road trips, and the 2nd row will be used for luggage much more...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    Does Conner have a lot of off road expertise? I'm struggling to imagine an off road situation where you could successfully put down ~1000HP through a single tire. For ICE vehicles with much lower HP and torque, this seems like a more legitimate desire.

    So you're saying Gravity is just a faster electrified sheep?

    Test drive before 2H25.....maybe?

    My prediction: Lucid isn't going to make the Gravity available to test drive until the media outlets they're currently giving access have a chance to publish their reviews. If we're starting a betting pool, I put money on April 23rd for test drives becoming available.
