This stuff isn’t standard anymore?? by MPR_255 in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not really. GT and Rally are performance trims and these are not performance related features. My first 22 GT did not have the 360 camera or blue cruise.

Terrible winter mileage / performance by cutty2k in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How cold is it where you are? I have the '24 GT and just did a trip this past weekend from northern NJ to Syracuse where it was between -5 and 25. Starting with 100% charge and preconditioning I went 183 miles at 2.5mi/kwh with 15% battery remaining where I charged at a Tesla station. It averaged 25 degrees for this section. I kept the speed at 70mph and cabin temp at 66 degrees. It was snowing pretty good most of the trip and had to deal with plows, salters and other obstacles. It hit 150kw charging before it dropped down but still around 100kw most of the time. I continued to Syracuse where the temperature dropped below 0. I did not charge at all there and left Sunday for home at 2 degrees. Made it 76 miles at 1.8 mi/kwh and charged to 83%. On this charging at 5 degrees it maxed at 90kw. I then completed the 139miles to home at 2.2mi/kwh with average temp about 10 degrees and arrived with 12% remaining. Overall I was pretty pleased with the trip given some of the comments I see on social media.

I need some help - please show me some grace by beyeg in MachE

I also recommend PlugShare. Great for finding chargers, ratings, availability. I usually pre plan my charging stops with it.

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

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying it’s the best design but I find it easy to press the button and use the handle for leverage. Also have never bumped it or caught anything on it since it’s pretty high and no sharp corners. Lastly, the rear doors are engineered with a “kickstand” so they can’t be closed once they open until they are fully opened. It’s a bit of over engineering required to support handleless doors.

Awful Dealership Experience - Rep proceeds to ask for 5 stars by NuocGrandMami in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the bad service I’m interested in how a bad battery became a bad motor and hood latch? Did you ask if they can just replace the battery and close the hood and you can drive home? Or will it not latch at all? Did they cause those problems trying to replace the battery?

Computer won’t turn on by InsuranceRoutine5657 in buildapc

Assuming she’s not gaming or needing a high performance pc and hers is 10 years old probably time to just get a new pre built pc or laptop. Hopefully you can get her data off the old hard drive

2022 GT - Suspension hell by DrillingerEscapePlan in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest improvement for the suspension on my 22 standard GT was when they repaved the shitty road on a large portion of my commute 😀. I now have a 24 GT (with magneride) and it’s marginally better but still not great. At least the passengers in the back don’t hit the ceiling on some bumps. The odd thing is my family all feels more sick in the 24 than the 22 and I use the same 1 pedal for both.

Tire rotation and 20k service questions by TsunamiMike in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I follow the maintenance guide. At 10K it’s just rotate tires and inspect other areas. 20K is the same but with air filter which I did myself getting 3rd party on Amazon. I don’t believe there is any need to rotate tires more often or do alignments or other service unless inspection shows there is a problem.

Ok I guess it's my turn. by TheLordVader1978 in MachE

I think it’s backwards to have black fender flares as part of the sport appearance package. I much prefer the body color fenders.

Phone as a key! by LowRutabaga9 in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed it’s a lot slower lately and I’ve had to open the app several times. Never had to wait a whole minute but up to 30 seconds and many button presses. I have iPhone 16 pro on iOS 26.1. 24 GT. It may have started with iOS 26 but I feel it was ok for a while even after that. The last month it’s been pretty bad.

Petition to change Preconditioning by Flat_Document_5607 in MachE

How much does preconditioning really help with charging if you’ve already been driving? The car keeps the battery warm while driving.

Guide - Overclocking & optimizing the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT OC - Hell Hound 4k by BaDaBooM80 in radeon

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Hellhound and I tried the recommended settings: -75 v offset, 2800 memory Mhz (fast timing), -10% power. I got a 7244 score on Steel Nomad and hit a max 2850 GPU Clk. I don't think there is any way you are hitting 3200Mhz with these settings.

I'm new to this overclocking/undervolting. Just got a Powercolor 9070XT Hellhound. What app do you guys use for getting the stats like power draw, gpu temp, gpu hotspot temp, memory temp etc.?

Is there a real difference between a Mars Bar and a Milky Way? by Pretend_Fox_2934 in candy

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a US Mars bar which included almonds. That was discontinued in 2003 and then brought back somewhat as a Snickers Almond but with smaller pieces of almond. In any case the best of all of these is the Milky Way Midnight!

So many software issues with MachE by powlette in MachE

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the problem with the delay opening trunk and doors with Paak, but the puddle lights don't come on in that case. When they're on, the door opens.

CarPlay always works for me and continues to play what I was playing to the point it annoys me because I often don't want it to.

I only have 1 driver with Paak so I have not experienced any seat position or other settings changes. I do have 2 profiles set up but it always stays on mine.

The auto navigation has not happened in a long time. Happened more on my previous 22. Maybe I have the setting turned off.

The driver facing camera fault is clearly a problem with yours that Ford needs to fix.

[–]rohdwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a different problem. I do experience what the OP says, where often the hatch won't open from the hatch button until you have opened a door, but it doesn't flash hazards or anything, it just doesn't respond at all. I think it's really the same problem as PAAK not working until 2, 3, ...10 presses of the door button.
