While it would be great if every feature was 100% flawless, it does sound like refusing to carry the fob is a case of being stubborn to your own detriment.

Hopefully the Lucid software team is close to resolving the bigger issues, and can switch to a steady stream of incremental refinement like you suggest.

I think everyone here is repeatedly acknowledging that the X was Tesla's comparable vehicle to the Gravity, not the Y. The Y and Gravity obviously live in different parts of the market, and we won't know whether Lucid can credibly compete with the Y until the Cosmos comes out. It's pretty...

I would highly value eyes-off autonomy. Eyes-on autonomy is much less exciting for me. Obviously Tesla is ahead of Lucid on their eyes-on autonomy. But when I do a 3.5 hr drive from Tahoe to San Francisco, it isn't relaxing to have to be constantly prepared to take over with no warning. It...

This puzzles me. Why doesn't your lawyer just have them served with papers? If they don't respond, the court will have you win by default.

My assumption (hope?) is that the dash cam feature is just immature, and they'll improve it for everyone as time goes by.

Yeah, that's my driving pattern as well. Occasionally roll the window down for a key pad, parking ticket, or to talk to a neighbor (or highway patrol officer 🤣), but when I'm driving I always have the windows up. Between climate control and listening to the radio, windows up is better.

I hate the hold that breaks in with a recorded voice regularly, because it makes it hard to concentrate on something else as I wait. And with or without the recorded voice, you could still be on hold forever.

We have similar concerns about traction in the snow, as I live up here in Tahoe City. I know that I could probably get better results by swapping rubber each spring and fall, but in recent years I've been running the CrossClimate 2 all year round. That's worked out well for me, but on a...

Seems like the sensible thing to do is buy a 2026 if you can find a vehicle that has an appealing configuration, and take advantage of what will doubtless be better deals than they'll offer any time soon on a 2027.

I hate the whole membership discount thing with a passion. To me, it's basically saying that we don't know how to get customer loyalty by providing a superior product/service, so we're going to try to lock you in with other measures. And I'm not talking just about charging networks: my...

No idea what MB and Rivian's expansion plans look like, but Ionna is steadily building out locations.

Interesting data! I wonder how much distaste for Musk pushes down Tesla's score. The % of failed charging attempts is a bit shocking. I know JD Powers stats can be a bit weird, but can you imagine failing to fill a gas vehicle that frequently? It'd be fascinating to break down the...

Yeah, I'm confident I'll enjoy driving a Gravity with no HUD. And with the current HUD features, I don't really see much point to it, since the steering wheel and display makes it easy to see all that information anyway. I don't care at all about the ambient lighting, so it's really only FOMO...

I'm confused, could you recap what happened during your Lucid ownership experience? You had to hire a lemon law attorney, but then you bought a Gravity?

In an odd way, the Gravity struggles from not being more expensive. If it was a Ferrari, with Ferrari pricing, people would accept that it's a finicky vehicle. Partly because no one buys a Ferrari for their daily driver. And most people buy it purely for themselves, and don't worry whether...

I'd like to have the chance to drive a vehicle with the HUD, and see if I want the tech package or not. When I was test driving before, they never had a car with the HUD available. And I'm spending pretty much all of August traveling, so won't have a chance until next month to see if they can...

To me, the credibility of an organization rests heavily on a commitment to accuracy and truthfulness that is demonstrated by a track record of correcting when they get it wrong. Wikipedia has sometimes gotten it wrong, but they do a good job of correcting, and I've never heard of them...

As has been noted here on multiple occasions, Lucid's staff individually all seem to be really trying to deliver a good customer experience, but the company's lack of systems and process makes it hard for them to deliver consistently.

And if that reddit post was true, I'm pretty sure that Lucid would consider it a big enough deal to mention it in the release notes.
