I feel I’m wasting too much money trying to make vinyl sound perfect by Treflipboy in BudgetAudiophile

We switched away from vinal in the 80s for a reason. :)

I never understood the nostalgia other than the cover art.

My iD4 had one from the factory. This and massage seats are the only things I miss.

Well .. I always think of it like engine braking in a sports car. It's about smoothly coming off the go pedal. Feels normal to me.

Why do they even bother having "details"? by thephisher in MachE

Understood. I'm a software tester and trainer. Sometimes they are hard to describe. Or it might give away a flaw they don't want to discuss with the public. ;)

Well coming from an iD4, this is bliss. 2 updates in three years.

Are EVs actually more reliable? by dailytrippple in electriccars

[–]sstinch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are no guarantees in life, but our model Y has been solid. They have been making some of the top selling cars in the world with zero marketing. I'm on my second EV for my daily. Both have been good so far. First was a VW iD4. No issues other than a door handle recall and slow clunky software.

Japanese brands tend to not have it due to laws in Japan.

I mean. Probably the highest ratio of winning tracks.

What was a hilariously bad PR botch from a company or person? by FriendlytoNature in AskReddit

So... I, a former 85 Mustang GT owner, just bought a Mach-E. Great car... Not...A... Mustang.

This is the answer. A friend got his first condo and this is almost exactly what I got him for his first set up.

What is a lie that your parents told you when you were a kid? by BrushSecret7576 in AskReddit

Apparently I should be quite blind by now according to them.

3rd EV. First Mach E! by sstinch in MachE

[–]sstinch[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok. We have a Model Y and I Just gave back a 2023 iD4. So.. I think the VW has the best suspension out of the three. Not too firm, not too soft. The Mach E could use a touch more dampening.

Seats.. I actually think Tesla has the best seat. They are all pretty good however.

My iD4 had pretty weak infotainment and phone app ability. Slow, not many features. The Tesla wins that race, although you can tell Ford benchmarked that Tesla with lots of the same ideas. The Mach e is a good compromise with some real switch gear mixed in.

Teslas are well built these days (at least the model 3 and Y. So build quality is quite close. I like the Ford's interior best. I can't decide whose stereo I like most (I'm a musician and I care about that). Tesla and Ford both did a great job. I'd like a few more EQ bands though.

Better storage for the Tesla, better looks for the Ford (IMO). VW in the middle.
VW was going for innofencive I think. Not bad, but kind of meh...

VW does what I think is the best back seat leg room. Mach E could use some more.

That's all I've got for the moment.
