I don’t get a headache, but my eyes get so dry it becomes hard to see. I too like to be surrounded by cold air without being blasted in the face by it.I'd like to sidetrack a bit here: I always get a minor to moderate headache if cold air blows directly to my face. Does anyone else have this issue?
I prefer diffused airflow from the AC.
When it's 95 to 100 or more degrees a blast to the face instantly cools me down. To each his own.I don’t get a headache, but my eyes get so dry it becomes hard to see. I too like to be surrounded by cold air without being blasted in the face by it.
@TribbleTrouble is like you.I don’t get a headache, but my eyes get so dry it becomes hard to see. I too like to be surrounded by cold air without being blasted in the face by it.
Hm, no, but it does automatically raise and lower itself to clear obstructions and/or based on weight. For example, if you are frunking, you will feel and hear it raise a little once you sit down, and lower a bit once you get off.
This is an interesting feature that I hadn't heard about before. What kind of obstructions does it detect and how long does it take to adjust the ride height? For example, my driveway is gravel and pretty steep at the bottom. A low vehicle can scrape its nose, especially if it approaches at the wrong angle. If I had a Gravity in Sprint mode at the lowest ride height, would it be able to raise itself up automatically as I enter the driveway? (I'm guessing that the suspension takes at least a few seconds to change the ride height.)Hm, no, but it does automatically raise and lower itself to clear obstructions and/or based on weight.

Thanks for the reply @borski. This is my exact use case @HaltheAerialist. I have a steep grade driveway and need to adjust the ride height to avoid scraping. Location-based ride height memory is something Tesla added early on, first with the MS then the MX. Hopefully it's on Lucid's list to add for the Gravity!This is an interesting feature that I hadn't heard about before.

Would an SUV really need it tho? Their normal ride height would be well above most things low cars need to avoid. It's a great feature in my Taycan but I've never needed it in any SUV I've owned and don't imagine I'll need it like that in the Gravity.As the Air has long had memory proximity sensing for bringing up the Homelink menu for gates and garage doors, I'm a bit surprised using it for height adjustment is not already a Gravity feature.

Yeah, so low setting is indeed low. Guess we'll just have to switch back to normal height when dealing with dodgy bumps or curbs, but good to know!It may depend on the ride height setting upon approach.
The Air's ground clearance is 4.9" or 5.5", depending on wheel size. At the lowest setting, the Gravity clearance is 5.3".
And the rubber air dams in front of the wheels on our Air with 21" wheels clear the ground by only 3.125" -- and the Gravity has those same air dams.
It’s almost never in the low setting unless you put it there manually though. It will do Low on the highway in Sprint (and occasionally other modes) but then bring it back to to Standard at pretty much all other times. So unless you intend to, you won’t be pulling up to your driveway at Low.Yeah, so low setting is indeed low.

Doesn't it just have height sensors? That's what I've seen on other air suspension vehicles. Here's what it looks like on a Model S:Also, I don’t know how it senses or if it’s exclusively weight based; that’s not something I’ve fully figured out yet. It definitely seems to adjust when you add and remove weight to and from the frunk, and I’ve seen it sense an obstruction, but I don’t know if that was coincidental.
So unless you intend to, you won’t be pulling up to your driveway at Low.
I don’t know. Might be! I haven’t gotten it on a lift yet.Doesn't it just have height sensors? That's what I've seen on other air suspension vehicles. Here's what it looks like on a Model S:
