I received a message from MyFord Mobile this saying the 12V battery on my old 2013 FFE after not hearing anything from the car for weeks. I figured if the car was communicating with MyFord Mobile I should be able to track. Sure enough, MyFord Mobile indicates that my old is now off the boat and...

The “Ford Uncovered” was a disappoint, all about SUVs and hybrids. No mention of PHEVs or BEVs.

According to CGR, there is supposed to be a “Ford Uncovered” event tomorrow where Ford is supposed to discuss upcoming offerings. Maybe we will get more information on the Mach 1 and some of the other upcoming EV models. Keep an eye out for media reports tomorrow.

Ford is saying that the Mach 1 will be an electric SUV with Mustang DNA. If it's packaged right the name could work. Anyway, Ford has said that the name is not yet set in stone and, if enough people like you object to the name, they can change it. I'm just happy to have a name to call the...

I am assuming that the Ford BEV SUV is going to be called the Mach 1. There are already commercials about the Mach1, https://insideevs.com/ford-confirms-mach-1-performance-suv-2020-launch/, but no real details other than what we already know about the upcoming BEV SUV. It’s being advertised as a...

The Chinese government is heavily pushing electric vehicles. The Focus Electric might be much more prevalent in the Focus line with production in China. We might see the reincarnation of the Focus Electric coming out of China sooner rather than later. Another thought is that we might still get...

Ford plans to spend $11 billion on electrification by 2022; Which is less than four years away!!! By 2022 Ford plans to be producing 40 electrified vehicles of which 16 are supposed to Battery Electric Vehicles with the rest being Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicles...

I just got my car back from the dealer. According to the ticket the dealer replaced the backup camera and the camera housing. The camera on my 2017 FFE seems to be working fine for now but I’ll provide a post if I have any more. As a side note, my service writer asked me twice if I wanted to...

The problem came back intermittently so I took the car into the dealer. They said they wanted to replace the camera housing but they had order the part. I will post what actual parts were replaced and if this fixes the problem once I get the car back.

The article I read on the 2019 FFE was published on pushevs.com and came out last November with a December update. There was no mention on where the 2019 FFE was going to be built. Remember the Focus is just one of the Ford models that will be getting additional electrification in the upcoming...

We all know that the 2019 Ford Focus is going to be completely redesigned and there are already spy photos of the 2019 Ford Focus. I have also read that the new Focus is going to be about 2 inches longer than the current Focus. The redesigned longer body could allow room for the battery pack to...

My 2013 FFE that I sold has/had 49,711 before they put it on the boat to Jordan(?). I don’t know if I’ll be able to track the mileage when it reaches its new home over seas. According to MyFord Mobile the car is still sitting at the dock in Galveston but it hasn’t pinged in a a couple of days.

Yep, it looks like my old 2013 FFE is going overseas. Right now the car is sitting on a dock near Galveston according to MyFord Mobile. I expect the car to disappear soon and then show up in the Middle East or just flat disappear.

I finally sold my 2013 FFE. I took a cash offer of $7,600. I only paid $15,000 for it to begin with and I put 30,000 miles on it so I don’t think I did so bad. There was a structural damage item on the CarFax report when I bought the car. I had the the car checked out when I bought the car and...

The installation is time consuming. The mechanic has to remove the tire and inner fender. It would take at least three hours to change out the port.

The problem is gone for now. We had a lot of rain that week. Maybe some water got into the camera or one of the connectors. No sense in taking the car in, they can’t fix something that’s not broke.

I just received an offer on the 2013 FFE that I’m selling. The buyer said that he had a dealer’s license and wanted to send the car to Jordan. I don’t know if the buyer will follow through but thought it was interesting that the buyer was willing to buy over wholesale for a car to ship to...

Okay, there is only one dealer in Texas advertising in AutoTrader.com a new Ford Focus Electric and there aren't any pictures of the actual car so the car is probably "in transit". You have always been able to order an FFE in Texas and it will take at least three months to get it delivered but...

This morning, when I drove my 2017 FFE, the backup camera picture was all jumble up. I had the car on the charger all night long and it was just about freezing temperatures when I got in the car. After I turned the car off and back on the picture came back but when I drove the again I had the...

My 2013 FFE is currently listed on AutoTrader.com. I originally listed the car at $9,300 but I've currently brought the price down to $8,400. The only real prospective buyer so far pulled out because he said he was worried about the high voltage battery packs failing after the 8 year/100,000...
