Back on topic!

Congrats!! Wait... you have Air DE #33 **and** Gravity DE #33? How did you manage that...

13 is my favorite number, and we got #013, so… someone somewhere must like us.

We can have a sill swap party. Trade sill badges with your favorite numbers.

So SA told me that Lucid recently changed Homelink to be standard on the GT and DE. If you see QRC in your Homelink screen, then the hardware is not installed, just open a mobile service ticket and they'll come out to install module once they have it. My next ticket after Jul 4th roadtrip.

@borski You are correct (as usual), case swap work for wireless charging on my iPhone. Bad case work with every Qi charging I throw it, just didn't work with Lucid. One less thing to complain to service center.

See this is why I’m a little embarrassed about initially complaining Lucid didn’t have Homelink. They’ve demonstrated repeatedly that if they are able to do something, they figure out a way, it just can take time and they don’t always communicate the situation to owners well, but they are responsive.

So, what's with the large blue oval reflection off the HUD screen onto the windshield in sunshine? Any way to make it go away?

I hate to bring this back up and wold be perfectly fine if you all just liked or disliked the post, rather than re-engaging the topic, but Torque news!(I won't link it here) did indeed run an "article" on the one Gravity owner who had issues which are now tracking with other owners (which several have speculated user error). And in an EV group I am part of, someone posted it and are concerned that Gravity isn't living up to all it was supposed to be. (No worries, I posted details and relayed most owners are having great experiences with some minor issues). I really just want to share so that we are mindful what we post here and other places can be taken on into other media and spun up. Be fair of course and call out issues you find and ask for help when lost, but be mindful that sometimes things will get taken a certain way without your consent or knowledge.

They are already building, and have delivered, black stealth in GT and DE. It's the black platinum they appear to be just getting going. So your orders may still be in the queue for build.

My SA told me explicitly (and my Lucid dashboard corroborates) that my order is not in any current production queue or pre-VIN status. I know they have delivered past lots of black stealth in GT and DE, but it does seem clear they are building these in batches, and my SA explicitly said that black stealth is not in the current batch. They may go back to a batch of black/stealth, but my understanding is that such a batch is not presently on radar.

The biggest issue I took with that poster was that some of the items were simply due to the fact they didn't know how it worked yet I got called out for being mean and dismissing and I predicted exactly what was going to happen, a media outlet picked it up and ran with it. Last I checked the OP never corrected themselves to say some of it was "user error" either but the damage was done.

Like you said, people should call out issues but also should choose words carefully and be 100% sure it's a car\software issue not an issue because you couldn't be assed to read the manual and figure out how to use something correctly. Making a mountain out of a mole hill for something that is probably extremely trivial will be picked up by a media outlet, blown out of proportion and people will just pile on.

There's probably less than 100 of these cars in peoples driveways, they WILL have teething issues and this isn't Lucid specific, happens to all car companies when a new model is released. Only so much testing and checking can be done internally to try and represent the real world.

Day 2.

Got Spotify set up
Got my 4 homelinks programmed - Auto open on approach is wonderful already
Got 3 different driver profile setup - transition is so fast

Only small niggles are the HUD reflection, turn signal camera graininess, and maybe only annoying to me, is when I take my seatbelt off, it always hits the door trim.

Well that’s extremely annoying. I’m an early Dream Edition Black Stealth, told May, then June, now it’s July and it’s still not even in pre-production yet.
