I’ve got 42k miles on my Air GT and still have original drive motors so they’re capable of being reliable. Of course most of the rest of my car has been replaced but ignore that part 🤣

Haha the Beetle is great, never noticed any wind noise in my friend’s car cuz the engine was so damn loud that you couldn’t hear anything else including the radio. It was serviceable though, he changed the fuel filter on the side of the road in like 10 minutes, I think it was the same one some...

Wow, I had never heard of a service center that was not a dedicated Lucid service center. That’s great they’re certified but I’m wondering if that affects the accuracy of what you’re being told and wait times. Was it this service center that said the center console wiring around the cup...

Yeah I’m only comparing based on the Air. The Gravity has a smaller efficiency difference between tire sizes, so true winters or all weathers make more sense for Gravity than for Air. I’ll be curious to see how the grip is on the Hankooks when I get the Gravity DE, as they’re basically the...

Huh, I put Nokian WRG5 Remedy all weather (not All Season) 19” on my Air GT and while the grip is remarkable in bad weather, the efficiency sucks. It’s been great in New England, put 7k miles on them with literally almost no noticeable wear and I drove them in snow without the slightest loss of...

Awww this almost makes me sad to trade my Air for the Gravity, excellent and accurate video. It sums up why I ordered the GT with no test drive before they were even building them yet. The best part is he compares the lease cost with Model. S, Taycan and Model 3P and while I knew the Touring...

Did you get a VIN assigned yet? Might depend on wheel size/options since they do them in batches.

Did they cover cost of a rental? If you were left without a vehicle to drive then I think you could request a lease payment credit, not sure how you could go about that but maybe their sales manager could advise? They usually do have loaners at Natick but I guess for whatever reason your car...

Weird, yeah that’s something that service should be able to fix, not sure what gets checked in PDI. As far as the GPS it’s close to where you’re at but a street or two off? I’ve had Apple Maps and Waze do that in the Air a couple times. Maybe overnight sleep will reset it but yeah otherwise...

Yeah they looked mediocre like that on Gravity test drive, the Airs are far superior, hopefully it’s just a software update that will take care of it.

Yeah and if you’re in a climate where it snows the heated wipers can de-ice your windshield in 30 seconds, I’ve used it many times. And the soft close doors are nice if you want to not wake up a napping kid.

1) The audio options depend on your preferences. If you’re a podcast audiobook radio person you don’t need SSPro. If you like to listen attentively and critically and want the music to sound like it’s RIGHT THERE then you want SSPro, with the caveat that you should also get a Tidal...

Guess you picked the right configuration they were already planning to build. What was the config?

What’s the loyalty credit? Is that only available to leases or also purchase?

Luxury cars, especially EVs, are not wise investments, you’re usually going to lose $ no matter what unless you scale up to supercars that you’ll barely drive. Just get the thing if you can afford it and enjoy it, knowing that whether you lease or buy you’re losing $ but that’s ok. I’m buying...

Sound system refers to the whole package. Is it surreal sound pro, surreal sound, volume knob, radio, audio apps, Sirius specifically, volume level, individual speakers, USB, CarPlay or Bluetooth playback, or what exactly is the issue? I don’t use Sirius, and have had almost no problems with...

I guess I’m ok if they don’t achieve Tesla or GM volume. It’s not that kind of thing. Weird but seductive works for me more than popular even if it’s not the best financial strategy. As long as they can stay in business that’s good enough for me.

I keep asking myself, is it really THAT bad? I don’t know man, my favorite car after my Air was a 1986 Volvo 240GL that died up a mountain on the way to Brattleboro VT cuz the ancient engine mounts wore out and the shaking of the engine wore through the transmission fluid line and it dumped the...

Haha that’s their problem. While I realize that may not be the best business model, if I have to do a rain dance and decipher a codex to get the car to drive every few months, so be it. The Air drives like some sort of fluid dynamics physics experiment, it flows like a river, and when I test...

I’m fine with calling a spade a spade. Lucid sucks at key access for their cars and I have no idea why, but they usually figure things out well enough to where you’ve got workarounds if there’s a failure, and the rest of the car is so remarkable you’re willing to put up with it. I’ve yet to...
