Check it out a possible error from the Mach-E: I say possible error as this popped up in a video of the London reveal where the reviewer was sitting in the front talking while the center display ran through a whole bunch of various error codes (looked like a self test to me, I doubt someone...

Well if you haven't heard ! LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcZP4Y7Pk9A My take on it: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2019/11/18/mustang-mach-e/

Has anyone seen these...I had always searched around for something like this when I had the FFE (Found a Bolt one right away when I picked it up but FFE ones were few and far between): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ML6ucMDWS2c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grZGUlmNwXw

In Europe, and its a van but hey! https://insideevs.com/ford-reveal-plug-in-hybrid-transit-van/ Finally some electrification news from Ford and a real product with pictures and everything ! LOL

Instead of polluting the Tesla Model 3 thread I'll start my own.. LOL Picked up my Bolt today: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2018/06/06/another-plugin-a-bowtie/ So far I've mostly played around with all the charge settings/configuration/etc. I'll have to make a blog post about comparing...

You can watch the reveal live here: https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/2019-ford-focus-livestream-reveal-how-to-watch/ (live at 11:00am Eastern) Will there be a FFE? (I know there are a few Ford employees here who probably already know LOL) My guess is: Even money. They are being built in...

Interesting news this morning: Mark Fields is out at Ford: http://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/columnists/daniel-howes/2017/05/22/ford-names-hackett-ceo/102001432/ Some of my own thoughts on it: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2017/05/22/fields-out-hackett-in/ I have wondered if the...

For Ford's new 300 mile SUV BEV they announced this week they should add a "minimum charge" setting to the value charge system. Here is how it would work: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2017/01/07/feature-request-for-fords-300-mile-suv/

What?? Yes: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2017/01/03/new-ford-evs/ Yeah my post is thin there. Ford's announcement only came during an 11am Eastern press conference so news is only just being announced about it.

Read in this article here: http://insideevs.com/2017-ford-focus-electric-115-miles-of-range-for-29120/ I guess the bigger news is 115 miles of range :) (We knew 100+ but now its official.) Even though it isn't everyone's wished for 200+ miles, it is still a significant increase (39 miles)...

Soon you'll be able to tell Alexa (Amazon's Echo) to start your FFE (and C-Max, and Fusion): http://www.reuters.com/article/us-ford-motor-amazon-com-idUSKCN123227?utm_campaign=trueAnthem:+Trending+Content&utm_content=57f2f35a04d3017a8038d306&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter

Wow GM has really exceeded its target: http://www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/columnists/henry-payne/2016/09/13/payne-chevy-bolt/90291548/ If the car is as good as the review above indicates its going to be a hit for GM. Update: another review from Detroit's other paper...

New FFE video from Ford: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66ilJ4hYAv4 What is interesting about this video, isn't the video but the description: Hmm notice something there....(I put the quote here in case they edit it/correct it.)

Really?? HMMM: http://insideevs.com/2017-ford-focus-electric-now-with-33-5-kwh-fast-charging/ When you are done reading that, read this and pick your jaw up off the floor: http://insideevs.com/ford-plans-family-of-model-e-vehicles-including-200-mile-all-electric-vehicle/

Well ok I saw 3 LOL All Manufacturer plates, all driving the highway between Dearborn and the plant. I'm guessing it was some engineers road-testing the new 2017's with the 100 mile battery.

My Ford Mobile on my Android phone got an update yesterday: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2016/06/09/a-new-myfordmobile/ TL;DR version: Its prettier but still has all the bugs/missing info as before.

Interesting review/article by Marc Lee in InsideEVs: http://insideevs.com/three-years-with-a-ford-focus-electric-review/

Has anyone ever had MyFord Mobile tell you your car was sleeping? (See here: https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2016/02/20/sleeping/ ). I've gone on vacation several times with my FFE for over a week and never did MFM tell me the car was sleeping? Perhaps this is a Sync 3 or a C-Max...

Well folks you may be surprised (or not LOL) to know that My Ford Mobile, and the Energi cars are just as messed up as the FFE is! LOL https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2016/01/25/buggy-car/ Adding to my list in that post I got this yesterday as a charge location: LOL! (The car was sitting...

Today is a bittersweet day for me: Turned in the FFE... https://spareelectrons.wordpress.com/2016/01/18/goodbye-ffe/ Of all the cars I've driven/owned/leased it is/was by far my favorite. There are a few items that prevented me from ordering another one (as mentioned in the blog post). Not...
