Pics?

I wanted to go with Hybrid, but ordered too late. AWD was just a consolation prize.

What have your outside temperatures been like? The battery doesn’t charge below 32F/0C and doesn’t discharge below 0F/-18C.

A bunch of people park over two spots.

Steelies make it look like a truck. All the others make it look like a confused crossover. I'm getting the Lariat Lux, so I'll have the confused crossover.

That's actually 800km so even better. (1.6km per mile)

This article talks about Android Auto, the relevant info is here: So I was incorrect about the HDMI, but it is sending a video stream over the USB.

That might help, as long as the USB-C cable is good quality. USB-C is definitely made for higher speed.

Android Auto essentially creates an HDMI connection over the USB port, the head end becomes a second screen for the Android device. It has to be high speed since it is pumping video over the link.

Probably a couple months to wait for the truck, but I did get these.

With inflation where it is, even 1.9% is still free money. But I prefer more free money. :D

If they keep it for '22 I'm going for the 36 or 48 months at 0%.

There's an app on the Android and iOS app stores called Decibel X that does a pretty good job. It will show overall sound level as well as a spectrum view.

I test drove an XL EB and it was far quieter than my Focus

The Bluetooth option (UT-133A) on that looks interesting, it seems like you could hook it up to the Maverick's microphone and speakers. You'd have to enable VOX because Ford neglected to include a PTT button.

They might match my Vroom offer: $381 for an '09 Focus with salvage title

There's a lot to learn with it. I wonder if the main unit will attach behind the seat? That would keep the look up front much cleaner.
