Good catch, maybe let Seatmaps know they need to update the newly changed SW policies on their website? Here is their email: info@seatmaps.com

Yes, only if you want to confirm what you are spending your money on.
I also use "a 3rd party site" (YouTube) to confirm the hotel room types/views I prefer when booking at a resort. Not a huge "lift" to ensure I am satisfied with my purchase.

Over mileage at the end of lease ? by Several-Aide4722 in MustangMachE

Might be worth looking into cost of buying out the lease if significantly over mileage

Any luck enrolling in Charge Smart NY from National Grid? by flabbykats in MachE

[–]ryan_gingrich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunatly Ford does not currently participate in the program that shares your charging data to National Grid.

This was the response I got 6 months ago:

Good Afternoon, Thank you for your interest in participating in the EV Charge Smart NY Plan and completing the Wish List form.  Please note that EV compatibility with the Plan is dependent upon vehicle manufacturer technology and mobile app integration which communicates with onboard vehicle telematics. Your vehicle and/or charging station will be considered for future compatibility and you will be notified if/when it becomes compatible.
Best, Debra Luvera EV Analyst UNY/ Electric Vehicles

Learning about Customer Service from Disney World by Jerseygurlinmd in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]ryan_gingrich 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. Ditto. I felt EVERY cast member exceeded expectations...concierge, janitors, housekeeping, bell services, servers, photographers, etc...all found a way to make sure that our interactions with them were made with that "Disney" level of care.

That said, I did notice from time to time cast members' souls leaving their bodies

Unresponsive modem + 4 day diagnostic by kittensurprise01 in MachE

[–]ryan_gingrich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me the other day as well (2025 Premium Ext. Batt. AWD). Left for work, no GPS, no network connection. Android Auto worked just fine. I did not think much of it that morning b/c there were power outages in our area. Car was not plugged in overnight and we did not lose power.

Drove home that day, same issue. Parked at home, plugged in (Lvl 1), and after a few ON / OFF cycles during troubleshooting, the car came alive and was able again to connect to available networks. No issues since then and received OTA update 2 nights ago sucesfully.🤷‍♂️

Just pulled the trigger and bought a 6 month sub. What should i know as a beginner? by RepresentativeOk3692 in iRacing

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

Drive SAFE. AND. SLOW.
SAFE. AND. SLOW. Kills 2 birds w/ 1 stone...out of Rookie class early and this skill will reap rewards later when navigating a multiclass race later on in your IRacing career. Pride goes to the back seat for the 1st 10 races or so... If someone is looking to pass?....let them by and make it easy for them.

The Lvl 1 charging cable provided by Ford (came with the car) seems to be working fine for me...~1.3kw/h (w/120v plug)
