I like my approach, when it comes it comes. 

agree. fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice... you get the idea. it was a mistake to publicize july 31. maybe it met some internal goal, but it doesn't help the customers. Fortunately for me, i'm away from my Air for 10 days starting tomorrow. i'll just leave the car plugged in at home, and maybe when i return, the update will be available and i can trigger it when i see it!Its not about "didn't miss a date" it's about.....keeps fuckin happening
if you need to limit your amperage charging at home, but if you L2 on the road (work etc), it just makes it easier to have one (lower) setting for home and then it'll automatically revert to high when you are not home. This way you don't plug in to public L2 and forget to change your setting to high. Or, even if you don't forget, if you do this frequently, it's a pain to keep switching it back and forth. So, convenience for L2 charing home and out.Can anyone explain in simple terms what the AC charging thing is all about?
You’re now being explicitly offensive and walking a thin line. Consider this your final warning.I'm complaining that the Lucid Defenders think holding Lucid accountable (yes even by complaining on said forum) or expecting a company to meet "fall 2024" deadlines is just ENTIRELY unacceptable and will mobilize in it's defense immediately![]()
Ban me bro this group offers me nothingYou’re now being explicitly offensive and walking a thin line. Consider this your final warning.
Nobody is “mobilizing to Lucid’s defense” as a “Lucid Defender.”
Some people just disagree with you. I don’t think it not being out yet is that big a deal. You do. That’s okay.
That has to be okay, and you have to be okay with others disagreeing, without calling people names or coming at them personally for their opinions.
If you cannot do that, that is a separate discussion.
Please stop.
you could just ignore it then. why bother coming on and stirring the pot?Ban me bro this group offers me nothing![]()
Offensive?? What's offensive in what he said? I'm a new owner and I got to tell you this forum has eggshell Tesla vibes. Dude said nothing offensive about anybody unless you're triggered by his observations.You’re now being explicitly offensive and walking a thin line. Consider this your final warning.

So I have a kick-ass inaugural cruise coming up on 8/31 on Royal Caribbean's Star of the Seas and I'm planning on donning some Lucid Gear as a "Lucid Defender" like I always to! Great conversation piece. And folks wonder how I set the referral record last year! I did by "Lucid Defending!"You’re now being explicitly offensive and walking a thin line.

Great. If it offers you nothing, leave. Don’t waste everyone’s time. Nobody is forcing you to be here.Ban me bro this group offers me nothingEvery time someone says anything in Lucids critique there's like 4 of you that just immediately pop up it's so consistent for nearly 3 years it's super tacky lol go ahead ban me this is a Gravity thread now anyway

Welcome! With all due respect, you’re new here. There is history and that wasn’t their first post. The offensive part was the implication, again, that none of the people that disagree with him have valid opinions, as he prefers to deride them as “lucid defenders” rather than listening to what they have to say.Offensive?? What's offensive in what he said? I'm a new owner and I got to tell you this forum has eggshell Tesla vibes. Dude said nothing offensive about anybody unless you're triggered by his observations.
Go read a bunch of threads. Nobody is stifling divergent opinions. This isn’t the first time the mods have fought this fight. There are tons of divergent opinions, many of which are negative. What don’t do is stifle positive opinions, just because they disagree with negative ones, or vice-versa.There are too many uptight people here, and stifling divergent opinions is a Tesla thing, isn't it?
This is not the first offense. I would never lead a response to a single post with “this is a final warning” unless it was egregious. This wasn’t egregious and I’m responding to a pattern we are all very much sick of.Maybe you're referencing some other post but I reread the one you quoted an im sorry, it isn't offensive nor is attacking people personally.
That’s not at all the goal. I suspect over time (or by reading some past threads) you’ll find that’s true.I hope maybe as the new guy I'm wrong about the vibe but there's a lot of pearl clutching on this site.

For the record, I agree it would have been better not to name a date, or to state explicitly that it will begin rolling out on that date and it would take 4 weeks or whatever.agree. fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice... you get the idea. it was a mistake to publicize july 31. maybe it met some internal goal, but it doesn't help the customers.

For sure. its a bit of a catch-22 really. people can be happy or unhappy in either scenario.. but if you make a public statement like this, follow up on it! if you set an expectation, its in lucid's self interest to meet the expectations that are set.For the record, I agree it would have been better not to name a date, or to state explicitly that it will begin rolling out on that date and it would take 4 weeks or whatever.
People want to have dates, but don’t like it when they are missed. It’s not a trivial decision.
do you have a sense of what might have happened? Last minute changes? Rollout started and nobody here has it? Latter seems unlikely given past rollout patternsFor the record, I agree it would have been better not to name a date, or to state explicitly that it will begin rolling out on that date and it would take 4 weeks or whatever.

Someone got sick? They decided to pack one last bugfix in? They found a bug last minute? The release process is running and builds take a long time? I have no idea.do you have a sense of what might have happened? Last minute changes? Rollout started and nobody here has it? Latter seems unlikely given past rollout patterns
Sure, that’s possible. It’s also been… 24 hours. Maybe they’re testing it on employee cars first. Who knowsIt feels like it might have been one of these...
CEO/Marketing: "We'd really like to announce a release date in Q2, can we hit Jul 30?"
Product manager: "hmm.......I THINK so....."
Marketing: "Jul 30 it is! Hurrah!"
I'm exaggerating a little, but it could be they were was some optimism, or it could be that something changed and they had to pull it.
Otherwise, I don't quite understand how they could have press releases and make a big announcement, then silently miss the date.
It's interesting stuff. And, of course, we will forget all of this once we have it in our hot little hands. I cannot think of another feature that I've been quite so looking forward to, a real game changer for road trips (as someone who loves driving the heck out of the car).
