    3000+ Mile Air Touring Winter Road trip Diary

    Make sure windshield washer fluid really stays liquid in cold windy conditions. Spray on windows freezes faster than a jug of water.

    The “hidden” de-ice feature

    How about windshield washer fluid with an appropriate freezing temperature. A) often what one buys is based on price not quality B) windshield fluid not likely to be on any purchasers ‘independent test’ list. C) US is swamped with ‘product’ that looks good in claims that are unverified and/or...

    PPF on leased Gravity?

    B of A seems to be difficult not only end of lease but also their clear lease wording that gives them wide latitude. I have no personal experience but I fully expect that I will see and hear that Lucid Motors is regularly finding they have to defend their clients. For example Lucid Motors sets...

    I just canceled my order

    Each to his own. Risk management. My GGT is at least a lucky one so far. And it’s performance with latest OTA? Stellar. It has the feel of coming around a tight corner seeing not only a clearing road ahead but some battered cars that didn’t make the corner so cleanly; limping a bit but...

    Gravity Accessories Available in the Referral Rewards Store

    Count blessings for delays. The rewards get taxed as earned income. The deminimus rule in reporting changes Jan 1. In high tax brackets there is no saving for a charger say vs other brand for cash. And the costs of dealing with accountants and other paperwork all worse if you are not perfect...

    Hotel road trip chargeing. Question

    Plugshare was originally a group of voluntary people who would share their capability with others in ‘the club of early EV adopters’ Many a nice chat in a driveway, with shared coffee+ too ! The system was voluntary. I presume that to this day, the owners of available chargers voluntarily...

    1099 from Lucid for reward purchases

    1- I have made a mountain out of a pimple. I am sorry that I have taken other people’s time. For one no matter reporting threshold tax is owed. No matter what the whole process costs more than the benefit. Most important: lucid set this up and lucid should have had a warning: consult...

    1099 from Lucid for reward purchases

    Bottom line: the cost for me and most other purchasers of the Gravity $$$ is more annoyance. For anyone expending the car the whole process of using points really generates expense, bureaucratic expense. The key is actually how LUCID values these points at more than retail when in fact they...

    1099 from Lucid for reward purchases

    The 2025 ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ eliminates the obligation for any company to create a 1099-MISC for referral rewards point purchases $600 ( for Lucid points lucid values at $0.125 per point). The government realized that the cost of processing for all ( (government, issuers and consumers) far...

    Leasing: mileage vs residual

    Impossible to rely on calculations to determine your comfort but it can help rationalize comfort. I leased my air because of very favorable rates and the [false] assumption that the company could be like Fisker. Now we have an expensive lease. So insuring value collapse is most of the benefit...
