The Mercedes EVs are pathetic. IMO.

Mercedes has suspended new EQS orders in the US market for 2026. So it will probably be an orphan. Better to get the Gravity in my view. This is from ChatGPT: “Bottom Line Mercedes hasn’t fully discontinued the EQS globally for 2026. However, in the U.S. it’s effectively paused/removed from...

I agree with you. The extreme views in either direction are to be discounted. As a happy Air owner, I view Gravity as a fantastic car with immature software, which thankfully can be fixed and applied to early adopters who are already driving a Gravity. I am going to hold off for a while until...

While software bugs are plaguing Gravity and Air, even these headwinds are not stopping stellar reviews from the press. Bloggers tend to exaggerate the negative on YouTube for views. Fix the software and there is no stopping Gravity. Software can be fixed and go out over-the-air. Underlying...

I have the same issue with WiFi. If WiFi is ON, the Air is offline. Does anyone have thoughts on this? May it be a firewall issue?

Let him play piano. I find most analysts, including him, to be useless.

The reviews of the Lucid Air and Gravity are most certainly "net positive". Please take a look at the rankings from C&D, MotorTrend, Doug Muro, and others. "Better than expected..." means better than expected by bone-headed ANALYSTS. That's the point. Lucid has continued to show steady QoQ and...

I ignore analysts and usually do the opposite of what they suggest. But their spew does have a short-term impact on the stocks they cover. Here is Andrew Percoco, Morgan Stanley's new Automotive Analyst, who just downgraded Lucid and Rivian... No joke. Good grief.

I have not noticed much change in the regen over the 58,000 miles on my Air. It's probably a bit softer now. But, dude, you are the driver, be careful. What was your state of charge when the regen seemed weak? Near 100% charge the regen is intentionally reduced to protect the battery pack.

We are lucky enough to have the EV with the best range on earth. I would not worry about it. Batteries lose charge spontaneously and also there is some drain even when the Air is sleeping. It's probably better for the long term health of the battery pack to operate at a state of charge between...

Well, his chatter has driven the stock up nicely over the past two sessions.

Bugs are everywhere. She is used to updating her iPhone and Rivian frequently.

Great review of the experience. The Gravity may be mature enough now that I can be more aggressive in convincing my wife to trade in her Rivian R1S for a Gravity GT.

That's great. Let's hope that they sell quickly.

Hopefully we will learn more about the status of the 2.8.0 update during the Lucid earnings call on Tuesday. I will be listening as I do every quarter. Here is the link: https://ir.lucidmotors.com/events/event-details/lucid-q2-2025-earnings-call

My CCC upgrade was installed on 7/31 and I asked the tech to push 2.8.0 to my car at that time. He said that the update is not available yet. He estimated 1-2 weeks. Let us know if they give you 2.8.0 when you upgrade the CCC.

So why do you think that Lucid missed their self imposed release date?

On July 31, a mobile Lucid technician came over to install the version two console hardware in my 2022 Air GT. I asked him to install version 2.8.0 at that time. He said it was not available yet and it would probably be another two weeks. So it was delayed before the Tesla settlement was...

I received a call from Lucid today. My mobile service up grade to v2 hardware set for next week.

I bought a lot when it hit $1.99 a few weeks ago to add to my position. Glad I did that, obviously. I will continue to add on dips. The triad of Uber, Lucid, and Nuro is a remarkable success. Uber will put the self-driving Gravity on the road, and people will ride it and say, "This is a great...
