Getting the home charger is exactly the right solution. Wake up to a “full tank” (well, 80%) every day. Also get into the ‘opportunistic charging’ mindset. There’s both L2 and L3 chargers at Tysons. I use free L2 whenever / wherever I can, partly because I figure the more they’re used, the more...

Our plan is basically the same as Snafu’s, right down to the picnic 😁 Where we ultimately head for will depend on the weather forecast for the afternoon, I guess. It would definitely be fun to meet up with some of you all.

I'm only a semi-regular but what I'd suggest is for the group to aim for one of the slightly more separate areas of parking lot, rather than the "prime spots" right in front of the coffee house - these tend to get taken very early by the stuff people really want to see (and / or the people who...

Yep, I've had it barely four months.

Just got off the 'phone with the new guy at Tysons. Car is (finally) booked in mid-April to look at my trunk issues and a few other things. Got told the may or may not have a loaner available, which is fair enough this far out. I was also then told that they don't do rentals any more, instead...

I had these issues back in November (thread). I speculated at the time that it was a water issue. Certainly seems related to some kind of electronic component in the trunk area, potentially with connectivity issues. Most of my issues went away when things (presumably) dried out. The trunk...

I get this maybe 20% of the time? It's a minor inconvenience compared with waiting for all the Bolts to get out of the way ...

I'm slightly more optimistic ... if all the 400V cars **** off to Tesla superchargers, it leaves EA for us with our superior 800V architecture :D My understanding is that, to qualify for NEVI funding, new stations - NACS or CCS - need to be able to supply 1000V.

9th or 23rd probably best for me but I’m pretty flexible

A new addition to the ICE fleet … this will live in semi-retirement in NH:

V2H or V2G may take a while. But now that V2V is implemented, relatively simple V2L - a la Kia or Hyundai - should be doable. I did try a J1772 NEMA 5-15 adapter when the V2V kit arrived, but it didn’t work :(

Paging a few others who have mentioned being in the area (apologies if I'm missing anyone): @rykkmm @PaulC @Wey @DaBears @3rdMotor @CapHillDC

Also in - great idea! I had been meaning to suggest something similar for a while. For those nearby, we could begin at Katie’s Cars and Coffee? Would be fun to see a ton of Lucids there. Will be fun to meet some of y’all

I can't remember which of the trade-in sites it was, but one of them gave me a value of $67k a few months ago for my black one. I'd put yours somewhere in the low 60s, I'm afraid. Unfortunately the market is in a very different place than when you sold your plaid. If you do want / need to...

I agree, EA has definitely improved - with one caveat. The "Signet Surge" is gone, and probably 75% of the time (for me, at least), everything works as it should - including plug and charge (although, compared with Tesla, it's still slow to authenticate). Maybe another 20% of the time I have...

The inbuilt wireless charging is crap. Widely documented on here. I got a couple of wedges 3D-printed, added a couple of pucks and now it works perfectly.

The resolution in the video isn't good enough to read the plates on the Lucid, although I don't see the red manufacturer lettering of the DE earlier in this thread. Looking at the Aston, though, I'm pretty sure it's this car, KY23MTE. Number plate is grainy in this still but it's there. And...

My old black GT now appears on google maps :cool: (as do I and my dog, in a subsequent image :D:D)

I agree. Tesla has more functionality in theory but I always felt it was trying to kill me. The Lucid is smoother, more predictable, and I have more confidence in it.

This is great. If only all EA trips could be like this!
