In a similar situation like you. Traded in a Passport a year ago for a Mach E extended range. Was able to roll over half of the 15K equity as down payment. 98% of my charging takes place at work, $1 an hour, $4 max. Exactly one yr on 9/9, 13.5K on the odo. My only beef is my insurance shot up, paying about $1K more a…

Currently leasing a Mach E, they couldn’t pay me enough to outright buy.

Hate the state, but this is pretty cool. The spirit of Jimmy lives on...

I would chip in having the van towed to the dealer and have it block it main entrance.  Maybe bring a few of cousin Vinny’s friends that likes to play with bats next to car windows.

The horrible range and the price will make it DOA.

Anyone who drive the $80K truck(Tundra Platinum, Sierra Denali, Silverado High Country, etc) that you know the bed never gets used or go off pavement. Bonus if it is lifted with offroad wheels/setup. You want to drive around in a truck, go ahead. But these are just obnoxious and begs the question - compensating much?…

It is a great car minus a handful of minor annoyances.  If I were you, I would ask the dealer to secure a plug for you before you sign.  The news of access happened a week before I got my car so it is understandable they didn’t have any, but for you, even if it means they need to buy you an aftermarket one, it should…

Mach E leasee here. I already have the software upgrade. Just waiting for the stupid plug.  At the rate that it is going, I will get it shortly before I return the lease.

If you can live without Apple Carplay, that is a heck of a deal!

1st: Why would I buy something that will guarantee less performance over time, take a massive depreciation due to various rebates/incentives, and the technology will likely improve over time? Signed my lease last Sept and in 2026, I will toss the fobs back to the dealer and let them deal with a car that by my…

Didn’t know that.  Talk about picking the wrong horse, or idiot, for the race.

and part of the working class!

She is pro-life, just some over others.

OMG, I see it! 

So on their list of possible VPs, this is the best they went with? Who were the others, Beavis, Butthead, and Spongebob?

Yeah, I had the same mindset, but that was before I got the Cervelo S5 with the SRAM wireless and powermeter setup. Not looking back.

Next headline - Cybertruck sales drop, price is reduced to drum up interest.

Yeah, I tried, but everything more or less stayed the same. We are really happy with AAA, they really took care of us a few years back when we were on vacation and got rear ended and stranded. Having been an adjuster in my previous life, I can appreciate getting claims taken care of in a expedited fashion, especially…

I went from a 2019 Honda Passport to a 2023 Mach E, my insurance went from $1500 for the year to $3100. The gas and maintenance saving went to AAA. 

Leasee of a Mach E, premium trim with extended battery. Insurance doubled, but I am paying about $28 to go 1000 miles a month(work commute is far), and maintenance is $50 every 10K at Ford. When I return the car, it will be upside down based on the steep EV deprecation, but NMP. Not sure if I want another EV when…
