    No more rentals?

    Just got off the 'phone with the new guy at Tysons. Car is (finally) booked in mid-April to look at my trunk issues and a few other things. Got told the may or may not have a loaner available, which is fair enough this far out. I was also then told that they don't do rentals any more, instead...

    You don’t see these every day

    For those who, like me, enjoy most automotive curiosities: here’s a trio of Ineos Grenadiers I spotted on the NJ turnpike yesterday. Didn’t realise they were over here.

    Success - or not? - with EVgo?

    I’ve tried a couple of EVgo stations these past couple of weeks. Never got more than 50kW even with preconditioning. Is it just me?

    Multiple errors - water intrusion?

    First time for the new car in rain / snow and I’m getting multiple errors … - reverse light fault - redundant lighting fault - trunk fault (and trunk will not open) - no sound from music, turn signals, anything at all - constant shock / tilt alerts I let the car sit for a couple of hours and...

    App localisations

    As has been pointed out in other threads, I use spellings like "colour" and "aluminium". I'm also fond of the word "blimey". So I was quite tickled today to discover that the mobile app updates its description of our vehicles' shapely rear depending on the 'phone's language settings:

    Lordstown Endurance

    Hadn't seen one of these before. And, given the company's troubles, I doubt I'll see that many more. Which I'm not sad about - it's fugly. I hope the city got a good deal on them.

    A ton of Lucids at Tysons this afternoon

    Literally dozens of them in the car park, of various different flavours. If you're waiting to take delivery, maybe one of these is yours?

    Free: Motor Trend floor mats, for Tahoe interior

    My LinerX mats arrived today, so these are surplus to requirements. Not asking for any $$$ for them, although I do like beer. Pros: - Really very good colour match for the Tahoe interior. - Rear mat is in good shape and fits the car surprisingly well after a bit of trimming. I haven't trimmed...

    lo-fi homelink solution

    I got fed up with all the clicking and pressing necessary to activate homelink (esp while reversing) so, while I had the double-sided tape out to install the charging pucks, I went with this rather more old-school solution ... it's pretty unobtrusive, and if they eventually sort the software...

    Can't register online - DC DMV doesn't know what a Lucid is!

    So I received my title from the dealer in NJ over the weekend. Went to the DC DMV website this morning to 'skip the trip' and do the registration / title thing online, but ... 'Lucid' does not exist in the drop-down list of vehicle manufacturers. I've sent them a feedback form alerting them of...

    Dream Ahead Tour coming to Tysons

    I see the "Dream Ahead Tour" is coming to the Tysons Galleria location 16th through 18th May. Not sure what's happening beyond 'come and test drive', but I might head out there one afternoon - might be fun if we could get a bunch of Lucids together, and let the Studio know we're coming?

    Bloke from Cantor Fitzgerald on CNBC Power Lunch yesterday: We remain bullish both on Rivian and Lucid in the long term ... issue is around supply ... In our view [Tesla] no longer has the best electric vehicle.

    Second owners assemble!

    With the increasing numbers of folk joining the Lucid experience through buying used, rather than new, it might be helpful to have a place to track and share experiences. Kind of like the various 'Ordering, Production and Delivery' threads. I'm sure there will also be common comments /...

    Can you adjust the charging current?

    Hi all. Question: is it possible to adjust the charging current? For example, I have an 80A Tesla Wall Connector, which I intend using with a TeslaTap. But I don't necessarily want to charge at 80A all the time, I'd like to have the option to dial it down from the car or the app. Does that...
