Good road trip

@EVandMe Месяц назад

@@lennycooksey300 thank you sir!

@anthonyc8499 6 месяцев назад

That was a cool road trip, thanks for sharing! I appreciate that you said something to the Polestar lady. It’s odd that she didn’t care that she racked up $26 in idle fees but whatever. Note that there’s a difference between kW and kWh and they shouldn’t be conflated. One is like horsepower and the other is like gallons. Your MME 4X has 258kW (346hp) from two motors and has a 99kWh (~3 gallons of gas) battery pack.

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, kilowatt is a measure of power, or the rate at which something uses electricity. A kilowatt-hour is a measure of energy, or the total amount of electricity used.

Thanks for doing this and filming your drives. I just got a Mach E and watching your vids gives one a sense of what to expect and think about. Really appreciate your work! P.S. if you have CarPlay, I recommend trying it as it has EV charging incorporated.

@EVandMe 4 месяца назад

Thanks ! That's why I do it, helping people get comfortable with EVs was my goal. I'm an android user, so I use Android Auto. The Ford navigation route planner is pretty decent.

@davids9577 3 месяца назад

On thing for comparison of the 2 forms of "stored energy"... 33kw = 1 gal/gas. Not sure of the Mach-E, but my 2019 M3 LR AWD takes appox. 54kw to go ~200 miles (228 rated -10%-ish), so depending on the buffer at the end 195-180 miles range. 54kw is equivalent to 1.6 gal/gas. That 0.64kw to charge is f'ing ridiculous!

Thank you for an informative video. I am in the early stages of considering an EV, Mach-e AWD ER specifically. It looks from the video that you park and charge the car outside at home. At last report, New Hampshire can get pretty cold in the winter. Do you encounter any problems charging the car outside in the cold weather? I believe I've read that outside charging in the cold can be problematic in terms of charge rate and also battery loss of charge from the car being parked outside in the cold. I've looked at Ford's owner's manual online and as I recall it recommends parking the Mach-e inside or under cover from just above 32 Fahrenheit and below. That may suggest Ford defines cold as beginning at just above 32. Understood, there is cold and there is really cold. I would think NH can often be in the 'really cold' zone during the winter. I would appreciate your observations about cold weather outside charging and cold weather battery charge loss when simply parked. Thanks again and I look forward to more content from you.

@EVandMe 4 месяца назад

Cold temperature affect batteries performance and efficiency. So in cold weather, it's better to plug in when not in use. The car will pull power as needed to maintain battery health. Charging is never in issue. I have a good quality charge that is weather proof. This is the same for any EV. Some EVs have heat pumps, which help with efficiency in the cold. My car, when not plugged in, doesn't loose any noticeable range or battery % when parked. I've left it at the airport a week and no loss.

@johnh2614 6 месяцев назад

On a 340 mile trip and a gas car I would stop at least twice. Once for a bathroom and once to get some food and use the bathroom. Best way to ease range Charging Anxiety is drive the speed limit or slightly below. And it’s at the point now that range anxiety isn’t the problem it’s charger anxiety For me. Is there going to be a line? And is the charger going to work? My Mach E has plenty of range. Thanks for sharing your experience

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

Honestly, pre-planning and keeping your expectations in check are the best way to overcome. Drive it, like you would an ICE car, no need to drive like a little old lady. Most people would need to stop at least once for this distance, the only difference with an EV is those stops are usually predetermined.

@KaiPonte 6 месяцев назад

Good video. I'm surprised you were able to accomplish the trip. From what I read online, you can't go more than ten miles in an EV without needing to charge and then all the public chargers are broken and will leave you stranded for weeks on end. (j/k)

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

I must have got lucky 😄 EVs aren't the perfect road-trip vehicle , but far from the doom and gloom the media would make you think

@joshmatlock1020 4 месяца назад

I'm like 10 minutes from that Fairfield charging stop it recommended for you.

@EVandMe 4 месяца назад

Awesome! Hopefully you're enjoying the ride, even though the weather is rough.

@ericrjennings 5 месяцев назад

What app are you using and how are you seeing the stats? I have a 2023 GTPE.

@EVandMe 5 месяцев назад

You need an obd dongle and an app called car scanner pro

@section803 3 месяца назад

I think in some states you’re allowed to drive in the carpool lane if you’re driving an ev.

@EVandMe 3 месяца назад

I think so too, but I'm under the impression that you need special stickers or license plate to use it.

@devanshgobin304 4 месяца назад

From what i heard you should be able to charge it on a tesla supercharger. Im not sure how accurate this information is but i guess its always better to know that tesla got you covered.

@EVandMe 4 месяца назад

Yes, my Tesla adapter will be here in a few weeks

@jukiradaniels Месяц назад

what app are you using for your battery info?

@EVandMe Месяц назад

You want OBDII port scanner like this one (amzn.to/3XEoyTT) and you need to download an app called car scanner and pay for the premium ($5)

@Sank1982 6 месяцев назад

How is your % on top and so large can this be selected?

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

The battery percentage displaying in the larger font is only when charging. Unfortunately, the instrument cluster has very minimal modifications. Especially since one of the recent updates has locked that icon of the car in the center of the screen.

@MrLwhiteford 6 месяцев назад

Does a mustang have battery pre conditioning for DC fast charging? I rented one from hertz and I couldn't figure out if it did or didn't

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

Yes, but it's automatic only when using the built in navigation. You cannot turn it on manually.

@chuckhadley 5 месяцев назад

Start on board navigation and select charger. when you areabout 20 miles away.

@JimD20619 6 месяцев назад

I gotta ask, what are those annoying flashing red indicators just above the steering wheel that never turn off, and how long did it take you to ignore them, defeating whatever purpose they were meant to serve?

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

They aren't visible to the eye. Only picked up by the camera. That's the infrared eye tracking to make sure your looking at the road when driving hands free

@MrRastus1975 Месяц назад

I see you are driving using unbridled mode do find you get longer range using this mode on a road trip

@EVandMe Месяц назад

The drive modes have very little impact on range. It's more about throttle response. Road trip efficiency, especially when using cruise control /bluecruise will be the same regardless of mode.

@ares4257 6 месяцев назад

Which mach e is this or did u say and i missed it

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

Premium extended range

@grunky0 5 месяцев назад

Bruh, get a camera with better autofocus.

@EVandMe 5 месяцев назад

Okay, thanks for the feedback

@Getitstraightyo 5 месяцев назад

This car is such a piece of shit. Thank you for being honest about it!

@EVandMe 5 месяцев назад

I definitely didn't say that nor do I believe that the car is a POS

@Schniebel89 6 месяцев назад

It's not a Mustang it's a Ford Mach-E. Easiest way to overcome range Anxiety is to have a gas powered range extender in the trunk. 😉😅

@EVandMe 6 месяцев назад

That's some Small D Energy. Who cares what is called, Ford called it a mustang, I'ma call it a mustang. I just traveled 750 miles, without a gas powered generator in my trunk and had zero anxiety.

@anthonyc8499 6 месяцев назад

That's a really weird take dude, but ok. Not sure why you're triggered by the branding that Ford gave a car but a ❄gonna be a ❄. If anything, just appreciate the freedom that people can drive what they want and don't feel the need to trample on others.

@kelviskelvis7140 6 месяцев назад

The Ford branding is irrelevant. This is a good car don't knock something you don't have first hand experience with. . The guy is correct its not an equal trade off but this car does have great benefits that I think out weigh any weaknesses. I hyper-mile so charger anxiety is not an issue with me. Nice Vlog journey with your Ford Mustang Mach-E.

@grunky0 5 месяцев назад

Ford's just got access to the Tesla charging network. That's a huge plus on eliminating range anxiety.
