Too bad this is needed. BUT good idea . Crazy idea put it back the way it was. My 2023 works great. Oh yea get rid of that ugly front end too. Yea yea I get people now saying its no problems at all. Yea sure it isn't . Hence other car makers are adding back control buttons and knobs . Which I...

Don't want to get into any huge argument BUT how LONG would it take to make all those panels. ?? . My guess a very LONG time,. Plus storage for night use would be HUGE. Plus do we have the materials needed too make miles of panels. . Then transmission and losses doing that. Then COST. Like to...

Did you really keep it at 100 percent/? Tesla and many others say to keep it at 80 percent on a regular basis for longer battery life.

When you do get issue solved post what is was for others to know. Thanks.

I worked as a mechanic at chevy dealer for many years. I never saw an oil pan punctured only dented once. . I never saw an engine take in water UNLESS it was driven into deep water. Maybe depends on if you live near a place you see a lot of off roading. I guess it depends on location a lot...

Granted small risk but it does happen MAINLY because of the HUGE size of the battery . I watched a video of guy changing out a Chevy bolt battery It was basically almost the entire underside of the car.Were an oil pan is rather small. Not sure how tough these EV battery cases really are. A...

Going to disagree with that puddle statement. More like dumb driver trying to go through DEEP water, puddle NO WAY. . BUT there are many videos on youtube with road debris damaging battery on underside of EV car. If its dented is all it takes. So the risk is far greater on a EV than you believe .

There are many added cost to an EV you are ignoring. I wont get into them all. I suggest you look into it. Plus there is risk. I know of a driver who hit some road debris and toasted his battery. Talk about added cost.

Anyone who said yes to poll is assuming the 30K prices is REAL . I HIGHLY doubt its even close. I bet the poll would change if you said 40 K starting price. Plus we don't even know what "stated" range in the starting price truck is going to be. What if its a 100 miles? So until we have the...

Just one thought about charging stations . Yes more are being installed BUT at the same time more EV vehicles will be added. So in the end wil it be any better? I see lines BIG lines like days worth. Even gas stations I have seen lines yet take 5 minutes unlike EV at best 30 minutes . Assuming...

True but why not make it better? It wouldn't be that much to do. Plus if door is plastic a pocket knife could pry it open. Most criminals carry a pocket knife. Okay I am guessing at that last point .

Nice BUT if that cover piece would cover the bolts holding the whole assembly in that would be much more secure. As it is now unscrew four bolts take whole thing with you. Maybe over kill but just saying. Oh that cover is just plastic. should be metal.

Check again If it is really 12.8 at battery posts. BUT only 3.8 at under hood jump points it sounds like the battery cable thing the 2022's had. Ford had to replace a bunch of cables on the 2022 models. But was fixed by 2023 model,

Interesting, During first winter with my 23 Mav Hybrid I ran into a guy at Walmart parking lot. He approached me. He had a Mach E. Said he had a hybrid Mav on order. He said he hated the mach E and the range was awful in the winter. To each there own I guess.

Up to you obviously but I would bother. I wouldn't worry about warranty coverage . MOST Mav's have very little trouble first 3/36 anyway. Trouble after 60K on most vehicles .

I cant remember if this was for the new 2026 coming out soon or on the current 2025 model 2.0 engine BUT they redesigned motor and added Port fuel injection plus still with direct injection . With both injection systems oil catch can is unneeded now. The whole point is to stop build up on...

I never understand this. The plug in cost about 4 to 5 grand more (Bigger Battery) . You will NEVER make up that cost in savings on less gas. Unless you fall into one of those weird categories you drive to work all EV and charge at work for free to drive home other wise you wont save a dime ,. ...

I guess you must be going 80 mph or really hilly? to get 27 mpg?? I drove 250 miles at 68 mph with TWO 17 foot long kayaks on roof then back got 32 mpg. Speed does kill mph. Oh it was ALL 500 miles highway, well maybe 20 miles not highway. .

All true BUT to charge a 60 kw battery at 220V and 40 amp still is about 6 hours time. So sure it can charge slower BUT take excessive amount of time . BUT for over night 30 would be okay at 10 hours. Now most wont let the battery get below 10 percent and most wont charge past 80 percent for...

I don't know what exactly an EV takes BUT friend had 220 installed for his Tesla 3. He was told use a 50 amp breaker. That is WAY more than AC uses if it needs a 50 amp breaker . Plus AC compressor is on and off were charging EV is constant. So I think your off in comparison to central air...
