    Comed denied rebate-Lucid Charger not Energy Star certified

    So after waiting months I finally get a rejection email from Comed that due to the charger not being ENERGY STAR certified and I assume NRTL certified no rebate. Looking through the documents this is in fact a qualification. I don't see any mention of Energy Star certification for the Lucid Home...

    Weak AC/Heater blower

    This having rear ac turned on makes a massive difference in cooling for me. For example-95 degree day with high humidity front only set to 67 keeps car livable. Same day with rear ac on 67 is uncomfortably cold. 72 all around is perfect. Metal roof with no window tint for reference.

    Ground Clearance - Losing Out on Dream Car - Help!

    Given that the drive is gravel you could have the transition smoothed out. The Air is a special car and IMHO would be worth the effort.

    Software update 2.3.0

    Same here, had multiple cameras not available messages for the 1st time this week and distracted driver is more sensitive. Re: cameras no rain, car is spotless and don’t see how this could be by coincidence. Something had to have changed. With my other cars with OTA update capabilities there’s...

    Software update 2.3.0

    CarPlay at this point is so ubiquitous I can’t imagine the motivation to not include. I understand that there’s an additional cost for the manufacturer for development of integration and ongoing maintenance. I’ve been told by some industry insiders that Apple is very helpful and will work...

    Accelerator Pedal stiffness

    I always thought my throttle required more effort than I thought it should. I just chalked it up to it is what it is for this car. Recently I’ve driven two different Airs-a nearly new Pure and a 10,000 mile GT loaner. Both required significantly less effort across all modes. My colleague who has...

    Anyone replace 19” all-season with summer only?

    The stock 19” all season tires kill the performance for me. It my own fault as I know better- all-season tires are usually bad in all seasons. I’ve also never found a Perrelli tires I like anywhere as much as Michelins save for Pzero Corsa. I had a chance to drive my colleagues Pure with 20”...

    EA Chargers Removed

    Simple solution would be to energize the cable with just enough voltage when tampering is detected.

    Are you planning to get another Lucid?

    The instant torque is going to be hard to live without. A manual transmission in a capable car like a CT5 Blackwing or 911 T has been the only thing so far the has provided a better driving experience than the Air. I fully realize that this is not apples to apples comparison. This fact makes...

    Any Luck Geeting Production of SXM Working?

    I think you're right it's 97 of the population has access to internet. As noted the SXM linked works over BT. Or this?

    Any Luck Geeting Production of SXM Working?

    Uncertain times? I’m pretty certain it’s going to be a fluster cluck. But I digress.. Edit or as mentioned above get one with a usb connection. How about a USB to 12V adapter? Not sure how many amps you need but I used something like this to power a radar detector and a dash cam temporarily...

    Are you planning to get another Lucid?

    Cars are my one true passion, well and watches, and wine, and I guess high-end AV, oh and pinball machines. In the end I look at these pursuits/ obsessions as a bargain relative to the alternative. I’ve had more cars than I can count but only one wife…

    Are you planning to get another Lucid?

    Yes if/when there’s a reasonable way to lease a Sapphire-less than $4k month for 24 with no money down- I’m in.

    Looks like I have a Rat problem 😞

    Are there signs of recent droppings? I only ask as I had a Porsche Cayenne that had the same issue. Initially they said that this happened under my ownership. Fortunately I had a good relationship with ownership and it was pretty easy to determine that this happened before I took possession.

    Driver's side wiper blades leaving haze on the windshield

    This may have been covered here but my wiper blade had shifted enough in the fitting that it wasn’t working well. It was a simple fix of sliding back into place. I would have never noticed but I was ceramic coating the window.

    Any Luck Geeting Production of SXM Working?

    I don’t think it’s unreasonable to have expectations that industry standard functionality should be there so I understand your frustration. How about using the SXM IOS app via CarPlay? I know you said that you’re in a rural area but there’s very few places left without access to cellular...

    deer

    I was able to scrub off some speed and lay the bike down but still was north of 50 upon impact. Not sure how far a traveled as I was out cold. I remember right before and then waking up in an ambulance. It’s amazing how your mind and body protect you from trauma. Full face helmet, leathers...

    deer

    June 10th 1991 rounded a tight corner in a rural area of Wisconsin at a fairly high-rate of speed. A group of cows had wandered out onto the road. Some road rash, a concussion and a my beloved Ducati 851 totaled I was lucky. Unfortunately it was a life changing moment for one of my friends.
