    Interesting Demographics of U.S. EV Ownership

    Yes, EVs have become absurdly political. In my workplace, an individual who I know very superficially , started to berate the whole concept of EV adoption , while discussing a completely unrelated topic. I listened intently, smiled and then proceeded to show him a photo of my car and to debunk...

    Interesting Demographics of U.S. EV Ownership

    Yes yes yes. It is quite challenging for me to take long road trips in Idaho; not impossible, just a tad nerve wracking . When there are charging stations every 50 or 100 miles, I will be ecstatic . There are places in my state that are very difficult if not impossible to get to with an EV...

    Wind noise

    I vacillate between thinking I have excess wind noise and thinking it’s within normal limits. During my service visit this fall, the Lucid expert thought it was within normal limits, so I am sticking with that. It’s a very subjective thing. And yes, the sound system kicks ass.

    2025 Taycan range and charging

    I too wish there was more content and I find myself obsessively checking Tidal for new choices. Most of the stuff they mix in Atmos does not exactly match with my musical preferences. That being said, I have discovered music I never thought I would listen to because of Atmos. I would strongly...

    2025 Taycan range and charging

    We had a full solar eclipse go over our area in August 2017. It was an incredibly surreal experience that is difficult to convey in words, unless you have seen one. I was mystified for weeks. During the 2-3 minutes of totality , the entire town erupted in screams . We live up on a hill outside...

    2025 Taycan range and charging

    Just for fun😳😳😳I configured the new Macan EV, with the Burmeister system , and there is no mention of Atmos capability. I am surprised Porsche hasn’t done this because it is such a fantastic feature.

    Play Dolby Atmos tracks in Surreal Sound Pro

    I love Tracy Chapman so much; I was just listening to many of her songs in the Lucid yesterday. They are beautiful and ethereal . I watched her performance at the Grammys and I must it admit my eyes watered!!!

    2025 Taycan range and charging

    Last summer I drove almost 475 miles through the mountains of Idaho and Wyoming, over Teton pass to Jackson Hole and back and hit a remarkable 4.6 m/kWh on my GT. I was not hypermiling, although my driving conditions were ideal . I followed the speed limit, which was around 55-65. So, I don’t...

    Solar for Charging Purposes

    I have had solar for almost 3 years and I am happy we installed it. Financially it is probably a break even scenario , but I love the idea of harnessing the sun and I hope to see more solar each year. My solar energy just goes back to the grid, and I have not had an electric bill since...

    Car pulling hard on right, randomly

    A few weeks ago lane departure decidedly to come on by itself and kind of freaked me out because I wasn’t expecting it. I just turned it back off and have not had any involuntary car movements since.

    Car pulling hard on right, randomly

    If you had lane departure on, that is most likely the root of your problem. Highway assist does not automatically engage , you have to activate it in dream drive. If it’s engaged, it will indicate so on the glass cockpit. So if you or your wife did not purposely activate highway assist , that...

    Car pulling hard on right, randomly

    Sounds a lot like the lane departure is on or highway assist is on ( less likely) . I have left lane departure off in my car, but a couple times, it reactivated without me prompting it and I had to turn it back off. If it’s not one of these issues, I am not sure what could be causing that...

    System Error and No CarPlay (again)

    I have not personally had the system error . Glad the reboot fixed it. Definitely shoot CS a text or email . Are you using wired or wireless CarPlay? I don’t know if it would make a difference , but in my many months of using wired CarPlay I have not had a single failure.

    System Error and No CarPlay (again)

    I am not entirely surprised to see 2.2 in stop and go , hilly city driving. To ease your concerns about range, perhaps try driving for about 10 miles at constant speed and see what you get, should be dramatically better. I occasionally get very bad numbers in stop and go situations. The...

    Real Life Range

    Depends on a few variables. My loss varies from 30% to almost 50%. For example, at temperature below zero when driving around town ( stop and go ), I have occasionally lost up to 50 % range. With more steady state driving, even in the coldest conditions, I lose approximately 30 -40 percent...
