    Mirror auto unfold?

    Dude, I sh$t you not - I'm over here weighing the pros and cons of knocking a mirror-sized hole in my garage wall. Because I can close the mirror again, right? It is just that initial open that will mess it up. So if I make a little pocket in the wall......

    Mirror auto unfold?

    Thank you! That's all I'm saying - I was very excited about Lucid making up for some of the shortcomings of an MS - unrefined interior, rough ride for the price point, etc. If what the DA told me is correct, then it will be quite a disappointment. Also, I am not throwing in the towel. As...

    Mirror auto unfold?

    Unfortunately, not here in Philly. I think many of these garages were originally for carriages (built in the late 1800s / early 1900s). Through the garage doorway, I have about 1" of clearance on each side of the folded mirror, and then once inside maybe 3" of clearance against the...

    Mirror auto unfold?

    Sorry for not being clearer in my post - this isn't about driving at speed. It is about slowly pulling out of a tight space. To park in my garage I have to close the mirrors because the passenger side of the car is too close to the wall (passengers have to exit the vehicle before pulling into...

    Mirror auto unfold?

    In Teslas the auto-unfold on park can be disabled (mirrors still auto-unfold when you get to a certain speed). That's been my only experience with auto-folding mirrors. But I would think most cars allow you to disable this feature, otherwise every time you close the mirror to park right up...

    Mirror auto unfold?

    My DA responded. As far as he knows, there is no way to disable this feature and the mirrors always auto-unfold, regardless of whether they were manually folded or they automatically folded. This is head-smackingly stupid and I'm in denial. Test drive scheduled for Saturday morning, so I'll...

    Greetings from central Jersey

    Sup! Formerly Exit 4, now in Philly. Exit 10 is North Jersey, not Central. :-)

    Mirror auto unfold?

    Yikes! I really don't want to cancel, but that will be a deal-killer because I won't be able to park in the garage. I've asked my DA and will update this thread when he responds!

    Mirror auto unfold?

    Hey! Watching Lucid’s tutorial videos, it looks like if the mirrors are folded, they will automatically unfold when the car is unlocked. Can that feature be disabled, so that the mirrors won’t unfold until the unfold button is pressed? On my MS, I can disable the feature, and I have to...

    Finally heard from my DA, who is located at of HQ in California. Short Hills is now scheduling test drives for AGT reservations. Whoo hoo!

    Hey! Thanks for the tip, will do. My DA has been useless on this issue.

    To Order or Cancel?

    I can so relate to this post. In the same boat with a Tesla MS LR, and a confirmed order for an AGT (without having even seen one in person yet). Figure the deciding factor will be when I finally get that test drive at the Short Hills, NJ location (*hint* Lucid, if you are watching). Plan to...

    Air Pure reservations

    Did you get a test drive? I've been trying to schedule a test drive there, through my DA, but have not been successful. Don't understand the issue.

    Finally took a test drive today

    How long were you waiting for the test drive in Short Hills? I reserved on 12/6/21 and converted to order on 3/1/22. Been bugging my DA to get me in there for a test drive (I live in Philly and that's the closest test drive available). My DA keeps hemming and hawing about it. Did you go...

    Lucid Air Touring or Tesla Model S LR

    Sure. The sidewall of the tire would blow out from hitting a pothole or other road hazard. This is a very common issue on 21s (Tesla makes you acknowledge an increased risk of blowouts, when you buy the wheels). The issue is more prevalent on Teslas because they are extremely heavy cars. I...

    Wheel size

    I don't have the Lucid yet, but the 21s on a Model S were awful on the bumpy roads near me. 21s are more prone to blowouts even on normal cars, and these cars are HEAVY. I have a light foot and do my best to avoid potholes, but I blew 3 tires in roughly 6 weeks. Sold them and put on 19s. If...

    Happy to report that it is still there, and very likely not much has changed inside. :)

    Easier to wash/remove dirt, resists staining/rusting/chemical etching, and always has a "wet" look. The same benefits as waxing. The difference is that you have to re-wax a car, often. But a ceramic coat will last years, especially if properly maintained. Think of it like a permanent wax on...
