    RESOLVED Frunk Issue

    I have an appointment for next week to address frunk latches. Fingers crossed this puts this to bed. Don’t want to see the turtle 😆

    RESOLVED Frunk Issue

    I’ve tried a couple times. Two onsite trips for service found no problem. 1st tech had to leave without reviewing with me as I was busy working. Tried as soon as I could and wouldn’t open. 2nd time opened with service tech watching and frunk opened once but not 2nd time. Had to reschedule. At...

    RESOLVED Frunk Issue

    If there was anything in there I needed I get it open. And if the car went into turtle mode due to a stuck frunk on a road trip and I didn’t have a loaner of some kind or accommodations within a couple hours I’d let my legal and PR team off their leashes.

    RESOLVED Frunk Issue

    I gave up trying to get mine fixed. My solution is to use key fob and open frunk twice. 1st time releases drivers side latch, second time releases passenger side. What is really strange is that sometime the fob will open both sides while the button on the dash never does.

    Why’s your worst range efficiency?

    Lots of talk about best, average etc. but what the worst you’ve seen? Just did a 180 mile trip that was 100% rural highway and averaged 3.0 Almost didn’t make it home with 300 mile charge. At 50 miles out stayed below 70 mph and ended up with 10 miles to spare. Wasn’t even at full send. Comfort...

    End of Lease Experience

    I know that seems logical but given the cash burn any loses on these lease returns will be insignificant. But who knows. I’m hopeful that they allow me to extend my lease. This would be the easiest way to avoid dealing with what to do with the car with the least amount of effort.

    End of Lease Experience

    Every lease I’ve had an I’ve had many the purchase price was negotiable. It’s going to be interesting to see what they do with the lease returns. Given that they’re not currently focused on selling used I bet they’ll send them to the auction.

    All Season Tires/Wheels

    Yes get the Michelins if you can. The Pirelli’s for me are not great. Car doesn’t feel as nearly planted or precise vs the summer only Michelin’s. Some of this is to be expected with an all season due to a softer taller sidewall and tread. But IMO it Feels like you’re driving on marbles at high...

    2.4.0 / 2.4.2 / 2.4.3 / 2.4.4 OTA

    This is a 1st for me. I’ll check my router to see if there’s been more data downloaded to the car than usual.

    Need help installing the radar detector

    I did it myself for my Valentine 1 gen 2 and Uniden R8. Not that hard once you pop the covers around the mirror. Then use a small cable tap with pins and and RG connector to tap into a wire harness for power. I’d recommend fused cable taps for added protection. Having some pry tools also makes...

    2.4.0 / 2.4.2 / 2.4.3 / 2.4.4 OTA

    Driving to work yesterday I was a bit startled when Lane Departure Protection intervened despite it being fully disabled. Turning it on then off again resolved the issue. This is the 2nd unexpected behavior I’ve witnessed during a rollout. The other was an error message for cameras being...

    2.4.0 / 2.4.2 / 2.4.3 / 2.4.4 OTA

    I’m willing to admit that I’m a complete sucker for wanting something I can’t have. Heck I want things I never even knew existed until I found out that I couldn’t have them. These software updates certainly feed into this condition. I think it comes down to the primal theory of the hunt is...

    US Armor Group unveils armored Lucid Air Sapphire with pepper spray and electric-shock door handles

    Yes I'm sure it's better than most and when you have access to your own nuclear reactor you don't care about efficiency. :D

    Need advice on Demos

    I’ve had a couple 2022 GT loaners with roughly 15k and 22k miles respectively. Compared to my new 2024 Touring with a solid roof they felt different both in good and bad ways. Many differences were due to different options. Good- Accelerator pedal required a normal amount of input. Mine is...

    1st car wash.

    For me detailing is my therapy. It’s one of the few things in my life that’s not complex and I see the results of my work immediately. I did a recent mild paint correction and ceramic coating. 35 years of detailing all my own cars. If anyone needs any diy tips let me know. Note: foam cannon...

    Makes perfect sense to me. If you need to get away from the bad guys you want to do it swiftly.
