    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    Some of us are fortunate enough to be able to do both. If you have to jump in your head vehicle for a trip from sf to la you don't think twice about it. Many bought the car for range FREEDOM. Longer trips (i.e. requiring one not at home, en route charge) should not engender massive range anxiety...

    RESOLVED Locked OUT of car

    Great to know, difficult to remember if I need it after next week... Too many secret handshakes for things like this and rebooting the car, and valet parking code bypass etc. I need a cheat sheet and with my luck I would no doubt accidentally lock it in the car when needed... But thanks again...

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    It depends on what you use the car for most! Home charging works for local or commuting. EA and other required for longer trips... Which is what many if not most folks bought this cruiser for, IMO

    RESOLVED Locked OUT of car

    Thank you. I was not even aware Duracell was applying that for child safety. Will wipe with alcohol in the future and see if that makes any difference

    RESOLVED Locked OUT of car

    They already have me a third key from a service. Reach independently drains the battery over s period of about 60 days max. Only using an RFID bag slowed it down. What's the sense of having them change a battery that I can change in 30 seconds ...it's going to go dead in 30 days anyway. changing...

    Electrify America is enraging EV owners

    Today at the EA in Rocklin CA people were FURIOUS. out of about 10 stations 2 or 3 were working. A woman pulled up on a beautiful Mercedes, tried a few and screamed "I hate my car.". I tried to explain it wasn't her car it was EA. Another lucid was there, owner on the phone trying to sell his...

    Why America’s EV chargers keep breaking .... article on Politico website

    I paid 150k cash for a car and yes 3 years of free charging did make it less painful to write that check.. Just like the epa rating made it less of a guilty indulgence. On the other hand I have a 30 year old MB that has no paint chips on original paint, and a 150k$ lucid I have to pay 10k more...

    Will EA be the death of EVs?

    Interesting. In 14 months of ownership and 12000 miles I have NEVER seen a Tesla at any charger other than a Tesla station.. NEVER at EA. Where did you see that?

    Changes for 2023??? Value of 2022

    Yes he used a paint meter and declared the paint extremely thin and soft. I have owned over 50 cars in my life new and used and NONE have chipped like this one. I don't know what color your car is but if it's white because of the undercoat is white might not show. Unfortunately I got a black one

    Changes for 2023??? Value of 2022

    Yes it has on you tube at a Chicago body shop he measured the paint thickness with an electronic tool designed for that purpose and it was absurdly thin. My black grand touring has white undercoating paint that chips constantly when I drive i-80 or I-5. Even my doors on the sides are getting...

    Valet Parking

    Apologize for the vehemence. It's actually incredulity at the oversight... The night before my departure to valet parking only hotel.

    Valet Parking

    I agree, although the ski pass trough provides very limited access and is hidden anyway... But I have a few suggestions: 1. For lucid the easiest quick OTA fix would be in the display section to be able to turn off the glove box light on the welcome panel. Or to switch deactivate the button...

    Valet Parking

    This totally sucks. Valet=unable to safely leave anything in car. I will have to refuse valet parking at a valet parking only hotel. This should be an interesting weekend. What planet did the lucid engineers come from... Can't even lock the truck!
