Here is the summary of Lucid during the trip.

Hands Free: It worked but it is enabled in very few places.
Drive Assist: It needed less torque than earlier. That was good.
Adaptive Cruise Control: It worked just as expected everywhere.

In all the 3 cases. I liked the slow down in the curves.

I ended up using ACC most of the time because when I was on a straight road, there was no need to grip the steering wheel.
I used HF just to test it. It drops down to DA and back more often than I like. I used DA when HF was not available and it was not
a straight road.

Tesla charging was perfect. I had no trouble charging anywhere. I was charging 90 or 95% at the end of the day.
I was charging on the drive at about 30%. 60% charge was consistently giving me a minimum of 180 miles at an average speed of 62mph.
The ambient temperature was between 50 and 87 degrees F. Do, the AC or heating did not work hard.

I averaged 4 miles per kWh for 3500 miles. That is just 10% below the EPA range.

The only feature I used in other cars on a sightseeing trip was the control of steering as I control the speed.
I wish that Lucid would allow that feature.

Let me know if you have any questions.https://photos.app.goo.gl/ySJogYjZVLMDMuWg8
