    FIrst Drive On Icy and Snowy Roads

    As I watched the first snow fall this morning, I started to lick my lips in anticipation of being able to try out my Lucid on icey and snowy road conditions. The wind was blowing such that it was announced in a NOAA warning that the wind chill was minus 10! Whoa, up here in the Pacific...

    Chevy Bolt Efficiency Compared to Lucid

    After getting my Lucid, which I simply love, I am now helping my eldest daughter in selecting the EV which best fits her needs. The Chevy Bolt EUV has caught her eye and it is something that she can afford. She is a single mom with two adopted little ones. I must say, the more I research this...

    And People Are Writing About Problems Wthe Lucid. Just look At This!

    While having other car manufactures having reliability problems is not much of a soothing medicine for those who have had some problems with their Lucid, I just read this about Telsa. Sigh, all of the manufactures seem to be having their fair share of issues as we rush into the ICE to EV...

    Where Did Preconditioning Go From the Lucid App?

    I used to be able to precondition my Lucid's batteries remotely by using the Lucid App. I currently have version is 1.25.1 (2075). With this version, which I think is the lastest version, I can not longer find the remote preconditioning option. Does any else have this issue? Why can't I find...

    Fun Issue: What Do You Call The Gas Pedal in an EV?

    I am having fun with this and want to get input from the Forum. I was questioning what one calls the gas pedal in an EV and did some surfing. I discovered that some are saying we should call it the Accelerator Pedal. However, I really don't like that suggestion simply because I do 1-pedal...

    When Highway Assist Can Be Dangerious

    Before I get into the details, let me first state, emphatically, I love Lucid’s Highway Assist feature. It allowed this 72 old fella to drive multiple days in a row +/- 600 miles a day. I discovered that it made the long drives very pleasant, arriving each evening at our hotel with enough...

    Don't Buy Lucid If You Don't Like Ooglers

    I am having a difficult time remembering when I was able to just park my 3 week old AGT and not have people come up and tell my how beautiful the car is and, by the way...what is it? Most of the time it is kind of neat as it allows me to show off the car. However, at times, it can become a bit...

    Snow Socks

    I will be driving over the Rockies for a Thanksgiving trip to our daughter's house in Denver. I anticipate we will be driving through snow country. In that anticipation, I read the Lucid Owner's Manual and learned that tire chains and cables are not allowed. It recommends snow socks. Thus, I...

    Learned Something New About The Frunk and The Truck Hoods

    As I was going over my Lucid once I drove it back from delivery, I opened both the Frunk and the Truck. I got called away and returned to the car about 20 minutes later. I tried to close the two hoods using the button on my Fob. Nothing happened. Tried the central panel display buttons, Nope...
