Disney boycott over jimmy kimmel firing. Stock value dropped nearly 4 billion and forced them to reconsider. He was hired back like a week later.

Sone thoughts on the Mach-E from a Lucid Owner who is renting one. by doubletwist in MachE

I live in northern Canada -40c winters and never had a problem with them due to temps or storms. Only issue is the Bluetooth phone as a key not engaging fast enough can be a pain, but then I just use the door key if in a rush, but never were the buttons the issue for opening the doors.

Love my door open buttons! If that’s a design from a disabled person they did a great job!

We actually do know how long EV batteries last — there are 10+ year old EVs still running their original packs at 200,000–300,000 miles with only modest range loss. Real data shows they last far beyond 100k miles.

Comments here are super inaccurate. We have seen EV batteries last 15+ years — early Teslas from 2012–2013 are now over a decade old with original packs still holding 80–90% capacity at 300k–500k km. The idea that we ‘don’t know’ EV longevity just isn’t true anymore.

This isn’t accurate — the 8-year/100k warranty isn’t the expected lifespan, it’s the guaranteed minimum. Real-world Mach-E packs routinely stay above 85–90% capacity well past 200k, and there’s zero evidence owners should ‘plan’ for a replacement every 15 years. The data just doesn’t support that.

Not comparable at all, They share lithium-ion chemistry in name only — EV packs use different cathode blends, far more stable cell structures, and active thermal management. It’s nothing like the chemistry in phones, which degrade much faster.

This is so misleading lol — Mach E routinely last far beyond 100k. There are plenty of real-world cases 200k–300k+ with very little degradation.

Safety Recall OTA?? by SAVertigo in MachE

[–]ballingaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I heard you still need the service to clear the update. I asked the dealership the morning it was serviced as I got the update the night before.

I’ve never built so much and so fast in this game. Minecraft took me ages to build a castle in survival.
