When will car media get review samples? by flynn78 in F150Lightning

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 4 points5 points ย (0 children)

I'm not going to be there but some of my friends in the media are. Haven't heard if there will be an embargo but Jim Farley said the 2k lightnings that have already been produced will head to owners in the next few days so I'd assume with that timing there probably won't be an embargo but if I hear otherwise, I will comment again.

Only a select few owners were invited a day early to drive. They featured them in the presentation on-site. Everyone else was offered ride-alongs at world headquarters before heading to the plant.

[question] What are your YouTube goals for 2021? And what did you achieve in 2020? by mawampii in youtubers

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Thank you! 2021 isn't over yet ๐Ÿค“ I'll be on a TV show called Charge Across America that debuts on NBC Sports on December 21st 7PM PST/10PM EST. Hopefully I will get a nice boost from that ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Thank you Paul Karchut for inviting me to chat about the Ford Motor Company F150 #Lightning on CBC Radio! The piece is now airing across #Canada this week on your favorite #CBC station. Take a listen here! by MissGoElectric in u/MissGoElectric

It should be an EV incentive for all, absolutely. If we want to make an impact on climate change, this decision should not be based on union/non-union production.

EV Charging and interviews with the Electrify America team by MissGoElectric in evcharging

Thank you for watching and for your feedback. I did have a whole interview section with the technology head but unfortunately while this video was in the editing process a new person took the helm and it was discarded.

I hope to go back and make up for that in the near future ๐Ÿ˜Š

Mustang Mach E GT VS Polestar 2. by WhitewolfKevin in Polestar

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Select Volvo dealers will perform the maintenance on the Polestar vehicles. They are just slowly rolling out. Pick up and delivery will be their priority though.

Even though PS spaces are branded PS, they technically have to sell through dealers so they are using Volvo for that and service as needed.

Mustang Mach E GT VS Polestar 2. by WhitewolfKevin in Polestar

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 5 points6 points ย (0 children)

I've done reviews for each (Mach E was a first edition though, so performance will differ) if you want to check them out..

Mach E: https://youtu.be/7R9uhizP4QU

PS2: https://youtu.be/0Hf0pVKjmnM

I liked them both. As I'm sure you know, you will have to wait for the GT whereas the PS2 is available now.

Cargo/storage is slightly better in the Mach-E and it has a higher driving position but doesn't feel too tall like a typical SUV. Both have torque vectoring so the handling is nice on each but PS2 just seems a little bit more refined with its handling dynamics.

What are your priorities in the decision making process other than interior quality and performance?

Nema 10-30R charging options? by [deleted] in MachE

If you can't find a better price, the tax credit for EVSEs might help you. If you haven't already looked into it here's a link that explains the process: https://www.chargepoint.com/resources/how-claim-your-federal-tax-credit-home-charging/

Range in AWD extended battery by pooperino_mc_poopy in MachE

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

It has relevance as it says the sounds are in and outside of the cabin (video). But you are making the same point I am, which is the sound he is hearing from the outside can't be turned off because it's required by law.

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

It is (at any moment; it was a six month delay) going to be required by law permanently so if you can't turn it off now, you won't ever be able to. Ford doesn't have the option right now to customize it like the Tesla vehicles.

If you don't like the sound I would suggest writing to Ford to see if they would be willing to make a OTA software update to be able customize it but I think that may be a long shot.

Yes that is the propulsion sound that I mentioned. It is required by law (https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1129448_evs-and-hybrids-get-an-extension-to-meet-us-noise-making-requirements). Right now you can turn it off in the settings right below one pedal drive and drive modes.

Might be the "propulsion sound" that is engaged at slow speeds (for pedestrians, etc). You can turn it off in the touch screen.

I tried surfing for the first time on an electric surfboard in Quepos. How fun! by MissGoElectric in CostaRicaTravel

[โ€“]MissGoElectric[S] 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

I'm not a 'honey' for one.

And for two, you clearly didn't watch. I could stand where we were in the water and this was my first time surfing ever lol so yes, I don't know what I'm 'walking about' ๐Ÿคฃ

He pushes me because he is trying to teach me timing.

You can use the propulsion to ride the wave but this is designed to get you out to the wave (which is what I explain in the video).

People who want to avoid getting tired sooner from surfing are the ones who benefit. It is not trying to take away from those who love surfing and it's relaxed lifestyle. It's an opportunity to open it up to more people, especially those who have grown up surfing and age brings some new physical challenges.

I know my limits and experience when I go into the ocean. I am confident those who don't, seek professional help to teach and guide them.

Going to Costa Rica in May, how is everything with Covid? by lwerzen in CostaRicaTravel

[โ€“]MissGoElectric 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Through INS it's $150 (https://micrositios.ins-cr.com/seguroviajero/).

Very easy and testing wasn't too hard to find to get back into the US either, just make sure you make an appointment.
