We turned our '13 FFE lease in yesterday with 22500 miles on the clock. Dealer called today and offered to sell us the car and re-register it for $9200. Equates to about $1000 less than a 3 year/31,500 mile lease on a 2017 from the same dealer when they finally become available. What would...

Looks like used Focus Electrics are starting at $8500 on cars.com, which means that Ford Credit is taking a beating on these cars when they go to auction...

I've been looking for an excuse to get an Echo. This might be it. http://www.slashgear.com/ford-sync-pairs-with-amazon-echo-and-alexa-05421257/

By almost $100/month. And I don't have to pay for gas. Bwahahahaha....

I've never used Value Charging and have always kept the default as 'Charge Now'. Somehow yesterday it switched in the MFM app to be Value Charging without me actually changing it. It happened while I was charging the vehicle and it resulted in the charging session terminating. Glad I noticed...

Amazing - I got ridiculous incentives on my 2013 when I leased it back in March. One would think there are even better incentives on what is about to be a three year leftover. http://www.allamericanfordinoldbridge.com/new/2012/Ford/Focus%20Electric/1FAHP3R43CL363844/12P873

A discussion on one of the BMW i forums about Dr. Who got me wondering. Is it just BMW EV drivers that are Dr. Who fans, or is it EV drivers. My wallpaper shows I'm a fan, and that I probably should be driving a RAV4 EV.

Seems as though there is a potential steering issue - there are an awful lot of NHTSA complaints registered. No investigation as yet. Guessing that it's not unique to the ICE version. http://www.thesafetyinstitute.org/vehicle-safety-watch-list/

I'll be tracking my drives over the next three years to determine whether or not I made a prudent decision... http://noankelectronaut.blogspot.com/2014/06/im-gonna-pop-some-tags.html

I did leave off the favorable ones... http://noankelectronaut.blogspot.com/2014/06/she-was-queen-for-about-hour.html

One man's opinion, anyway. http://activeeinsect.blogspot.com/2014/04/shes-gone.html

My apologies if this has been discussed previously, but the 'common word' search issue prevented me from finding it if it has. My old Audi didn't get 0.05 Gallons/Mile, it got 20 MPG. Why on earth does the FFE not calculate Miles/kWh rather than watts/mile? Miles/kWh is so much easier...
