I’m not suggesting that’s true. Just that it would be my best guess. I’ve been known to be wrong on occasion. 😊 It’ll have the space for the HUD, for sure. Whether they want to train service to do the installs and stock the parts is another matter. It’s logistics, basically. And right around...

The remaining questions are when will the HUD become available to other trims again? And will there be an option to retrofit cars that come out this year? I can only speculate on either. But my guess is the first will be sorted in a year or two max. The second is likely a no. But it's really...

This is clearly a supply thing. The folks who think this is Lucid "pushing" them to order a DE are not thinking it through. They are only making a limited number of DEs. The HUD is an expensive option. Thus, they are guaranteed to make LESS money doing things this way. Which means their...

Oh, and my demo Gravity had sun shades. Just the front two. The guy wasn’t sure if they were just the Air ones, or if they were custom sized for gravity. I think it would be cool if the front ones from Air just fit. The back is obviously a different story. But that rear panel seems quite tinted...

Okay. So I just drove Gravity. The easiest thing to say is it was pretty much like driving my Air. Which is actually quite remarkable. First thing I did when I got in was set up my seats, mirrors, and wheel. Then I set the air suspension to fully slammed down. And then I turned on Sprint and...

My wife is 4'11. We didn't have a chance to fully adjust and have her drive around, but within seconds of sitting in Gravity she found the seat and wheel position better than that in our Air. I think it has to do with the wheel shape helping with visibility, and the seat being higher off the...

While my mats slip when I get in or out (driver's one only) I have never felt there was any chance they'd slip under the pedals and cause any real issue. I'm happy to take new mats if they offer them to me. But this isn't a big story. I am curious how they will handle this, though. My car...

Any plans to support Spatial Audio in CarPlay?

Weird. Mine is still working. Just checked it.

I imagine you'll be getting an email shortly.

That's lower than it should be, if you ask me. It should be rated based on how many chargers at that station are available/in use. If no other chargers are available, it should be $1 per minute.

Perhaps after 67 pages, it's time to consider we've said all there is to say about Gravity orders? At least until we hear something new from Lucid. All in favor of closing this one down?

The Y has always been the ugliest Tesla. The new refresh doesn’t help. The headlights getting smaller just enhances the fact the car is vertically stretched in an unpleasant way. Proportions are still all out of whack. And it’s their worst handling car as well. But it is their best seller...

It's a subtle bit of pressure that you need. Not squeezing the wheel, but turning motion. As if you are trying to turn left or right, but not pressing hard enough to break free, if that makes sense. I find resting two fingers of my left hand on the flat bottom left of the wheel does the trick...

So on the one hand, you call out Lucid and Peter for saying a thing and then that thing not becoming true. And then on the other, you complain that Lucid is being "silent." Pick one. If you open your mouth and say such and such a thing is going to be delivered, you run the risk of missing...

There has never been, in the entire history of automobiles, any attempt to standardize driver controls. Drive enough cars, and you will see it all. It's up to the driver to learn their car and not press the wrong buttons. Having said that— yeah, been there, done that. Scary as heck the first...

It might sound counterintuitive, but forget "owner" and "principal." Just set your wife as the "owner" if she is driving the car most of the time. It will save you a ton of headaches. As far as I can tell, the Air greatly favors the owner profile. My wife drives our Air very infrequently, so...

I like Yosemite interior, but on the Silver I’d go with one of the other colors myself.

Not really. I wouldn't call popping to just over $3 a worthwhile PR stunt. Lucid are very aware opening orders too early would lead to increased cancelations. How did they know this? Because that's exactly what happened with Air. It seems far more likely Lucid opened orders because they...

I mean, you'd have to have some serious time on your hands to run to EA, spend an hour waiting to charge to 100%, then running back to your house to power your refrigerator. My guess is the number of people willing to do this to save a couple of bucks is in the tens. At most.
