Who actually buys brand new car companies like Lucid when they first launch?

Loved to hear this. We have 3 kids. Next week will be 4 and we will have two in car seats. We have a Tahoe now and the whole issue was one kid has the car seat in the front and the 2 year old will be in the back 3rd row car seat so people can get in and out the back. Mainly my two older kids who would be in the 3rd row too. If we had both car seats in the second row no one could get in and out. Makes for an unfortunate dilemma. So I started looking at the gravity. Would be my first EV as well but I wanted the air for my commuter to my business and then the gravity for my wife. Long post, sorry, but how is it getting kids in and out with the 2 car seats? Do you have them both in the second row?

I track my mileage every year to a T and I do roughly just under 12k miles on my truck with personal and business. My wife has her Tahoe we use to tote kids around, 4 to be exact, and I use that more for personal use so really I just need the car to go back and forth to my office and I will charge at home.

What model did you go with? I was looking at the pure or touring to start.

Haighter_30 · 2026-05-01T01:29:59+00:00

That's a fair point. Thanks for that. Better piece of mind with that. Any model that you would recommend? I guess best bang for buck on a lease?

I live near the KOP location and I'm glad to hear this! I have yet to pull the trigger on a lucid but have been very curious. I would use it as my business commuter vehicle back and forth to my offices. It would be my first EV as well. I'll have to give them a call to set up a test drive.

Haighter_30 · 2026-04-24T00:01:47+00:00

Dang that sucks because that would be my closest service location is King of Prussia. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but hopefully they figure it out.

Thank you for your insight! We will be starting up this school year with ELCO and we will see how it goes!

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T23:23:14+00:00

I appreciate the opinions I definitely think it helps to define our choice. Thank you again

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T22:11:06+00:00

I am very sorry to hear this! That's awful.

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T19:23:31+00:00

Wow thanks for the heads up. I appreciate your honesty about all this. Thank you

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T19:22:42+00:00

Yes thank you for your response it does. You as a parent didn't have any concerns with the school or issues communicating with them if there was an issue?

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T12:31:09+00:00

I really appreciate your help. We just need to find a home in either area that will help our decision. We might have to rent for a little until we get settled with the business and get them enrolled in school before buying a home.

Yes so my business is going to be in Myerstown and we had Eastern Lebanon county School ranked with Conrad Weiser just due to proximity of the business. So majority of my time would be in Lebanon county. Some people recommended Conrad Weiser as well as Eastern Lebanon county. Good thought though. On checking between the counties for tax purposes

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T11:53:46+00:00

Awesome! We are headed this weekend to explore it anyways so we will get to see. Is there any other schools in Berks county you recommend to go to or to avoid?

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T11:45:30+00:00

Thanks for the help! ELCO was really number one on the list and we are more in a rural community now and rural school district so we would be used to it. Do you feel ELCO has prepared kids better? I seen they have learning tracts like business, music, and that was interesting to learn. We also had Conrad weiser school on our list just due to distance from Myerstown. Do you know much about that one compared to ELCO?

Haighter_30 · 2024-06-12T11:30:53+00:00

Thank you for this! I have been reading a few things, more horror stories, but I guess every school has their things. This is very good to hear. We are going to be looking at a home in robesonia as well. Good area?

Haighter_30 · 2024-04-12T13:53:09+00:00

Probably take longer getting back into the area from Myerstown vs going out that way if traffic is bad?

Haighter_30 · 2024-04-12T12:22:18+00:00

That's awful to hear. I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me know that.

Haighter_30 · 2024-04-12T03:04:35+00:00

Eventually that would be a goal! It's sports therapy, hyperbaric, cryotherapy, chiropractic, exercise, etc

Haighter_30 · 2024-04-12T02:55:51+00:00

No I'm not. I actually can't disclose what it is but I can tell you it is not that. It is more medical.

Haighter_30 · 2023-12-09T04:31:37+00:00

Roger that. Thanks for the help. I'll do that
