Great father son reversed dynamics. Tommy responds as a conservative 60yo and Roman as the twenty something. Very entertaining while also being informative. 💯
Roman is just starting his second childhood ...
More videos like this..please 😍
Being a father myself, I love the father son back and forth. The reversed roles is icing on the cake. Looking forward to more of these videos!
Increasingly impressed by the Mercury Grand Mach-E
Inthink the Ford looks better
Roman is living proof that while growing older is unavoidable, growing up is optional.
So most definitely agree!
Can your car fart?!?
Love how he became an EV convert.
Glad Ford didn't screw up that car.
Get off his young sack
My name is Roman also... that’s my tesla 😂

I've never been interested in a Mustang. But, I find this electric Mustang attractive..
This isn’t a mustang
Check out the mach e 1400 now that's a mustang
@@ardengrosfeld442 Wait 15 more years and if people keeps complaining about electrifying a Mustang, the name will soon be of a thing of past.
I own a Model Y Performance, but I hope the Mustang Mach-E sells well too. The more electrics on the roads, the more affordable EV's will become as competition forces the automakers to make a longer ranged, faster charging, and overall better car than their competitors. I wonder how seriously they would've taken EV's had Tesla not of lit a fire under their feet.
Ford, VW, Nissan, Audi, Mercedes, etc. have A LOT catching up to do. VW ID.4 made me look into EVs only to find out Tesla is the best option for a foreseeable future.
They didn’t want EVs. They’re bad for the oil overlords. Tesla kinda forced their hand
They would have still been relegated to niche vehicles. As mentioned above none of them were innovating in any meaningful way until Tesla came along and showed them the way.
FORD will copy anyone. Their motto is “Buy it dissect it copy it slap FORD on it and say it’s the best” Next year they’re going to buy a Mars Rover from Boeing and slap a horse on it.
Once Tesla releases it’s $25000 model it’s over
I gotta say I do really like the way you review competing cars with one of you taking the side of one car and the other taking the opposing side because it ends up being a more complete and in-depth review. It plays out how arguments about competing cars usually do in real life/ on the internet which basically ends up making the review answer the most pressing questions first.
"can you make your seat fart?" took me out😭😂
I do like the interior MUCH better in the ford.
They should have called it the Pon-E
So so upset I didn't think of it myself🤨

17:40 "if you buy it this year" Releases video on 29 december.
I SLIGHTLY prefer the Mach-e styling, and the heated steering wheel is something Tesla SHOULD offer, but the Tesla soundly wins everything else that I’d value. No contest.
Experience certainly is a bonus. These brands should even out in the future (along with other brands to come). I don't understand why the interior styling has to be so harsh, while they barely update the exterior styling. Car makers can't get the grille out of their designs for some reason. Teslas could be so much cooler in exterior design, yet they opt to be bland sedans for the most part. The Mustang-E looks like every other crossover on the market for the most part. Get creative, please!
As far as options, I can get heated/cooled seats and steering wheel in many cars. Something as forward thinking as electric vehicles should definitely have these options available if not included.
I believe the Model Y's made in China now have a heated steering wheel, so it's likely to come to the US. Like you said though, Tesla definitely wins for pretty much everything that matters (ESPECIALLY charging), but it's great to finally have a pretty good competitor.
Doug Demuro did a review on the Mach-E and he said one of the greatest contrasts is that the Mach-E's fit and finish was light years ahead of the Tesla Model Y.
My issue with Tesla is you can tell they are new to the game, it’s overall a decent product but just a bit off in every way, I really want to see what legacy manufacturers can do, and they sure are catching up quick.
Tesla’s exterior design is pretty bad with stale boring blank interiors with only a tacked on screen, Mach-E isn’t much better but still has a good trim and finish to it.
@@KayJblue We’ve BEEN seeing what legacy auto could do for years. They missed the boat and are pathetically behind.
To pop the glove box, you don’t have to move your hands from the steering wheel or take eyes off road. Just press the voice button on the wheel and say “open glove box”.
I really like Tommy’s idea of calling it the “Galax-e”!
May bring a lawsuit from Samsung, like Ford threatened Tesla with the the "E".
Missed opportunity
There’s already a Ford Galaxy in Europe and it’s a minivan :(
@@nathanielkenneth I was gonna say the same thing
I wouldn't call it galax-e or galaxy-e. Search Ford Galaxy xD
No matter what I watch on RUclips, i can't escape the maw that is Raid Shadowlegends
Glad to hear Ford will be doing over-the-air updates, like Tesla. To me, this is crucial. These cars are loaded with tech, and the software that actually propels the car is constantly improving. You get up in the morning, and your car runs better than it did yesterday because of an update your car received while you were sleeping. The Chevy Bolt, incredibly, requires a visit to a service center to get a software update.
"Ford has done away with door handles." Moments later... "Push the button and grab onto this little winglet to open the door." That little winglet is otherwise know as a..... Handle!
The factory I work for makes door handles. It’s surely not your typical door handle.
Why didn't they do the front like the back, without handles
@@BombsAwayMineCraft they noticed people grabbed it from the inside of the door on the back over the outside so they put a rubber piece inside the rear door for when you grab it from the inside of the door I thought he was going to talk about that

@@foto21 actually there’s a stopper that keeps the door from being closed unless it’s opened to a certain point to help avoid that as well
it was fun watching this review. the spontaneous disagreements and little arguments typical of two honest friends (or relatives) being themselves and not afraid of questioning the other made it look natural and enjoyable. almost as if you two were going your normal daily lives and there were hidden cameras. good job, guys!

I am always amazed at how folks will ignore the fit and finish issues with the Tesla. That is a non- starter for me. Mach E is the first EV I'll consider, outside a luxury brand.
Ford is 100 years old and still has build quality issues and for many one of the worst cars along with GMC and others. Tesla is getting and they changing how to assemble EVs and cars. Tesla will
Correct any issues on the most advanced EVs in the world… no comparison! Ford is still using legacy technology with no over-the-air updates its costs huge money to have in-house programmers to stay on top of technology!

Should have left off "Mustang" and just called it Mach-E
Yep, BTW I think everyone will just call it a Mach-E anyway.
Its whatever that they called it a mustang but i have no issue until owners start saying they own a mustang. Its no mustang
But like I don’t think it’s gonna matter too much cuz I just call it the Mach-E. The name does matter, what matter is the car itself. If the car is good then it’s good.
@@Hallowsaw It's more of a mustang than the Mustang II, Fox Body, and SN-95. They were either underwhelming or not even close to the mustang design.
The lack of a hanger for satin bowling jackets, no holder for mullet combs, and no spittoon for Skoal means that marketing has written off trade-ins from the 5.0 mafia.
In 5 years we’re gonna laugh at the power and range of these two vehicles.
@Mark Kahn I think you’re wrong, with how fast battery and electric innovation is happening it will be soon.
@Mark Kahn the reason why Tesla hasn’t seen big improvements in the last 5 years is because they’ve been the only major car company doing it. Once other car manufacturers fully jump in to the EV wagon like Ford and GM, it’s pretty safe to assume that it will cause a chain reaction in the industry that will significantly increase RnD into the technology.
@Mark Kahn considering we used some type of horse transportation for over a thousand years, to driving cars in the early 1900’s, to putting a man in the moon only 50 years later, I think that speaks for itself. If there’s money to be made, organizations are willing to invest millions and billions of dollars to do it. They just have to be convinced about it, which is what we’re witnessing right now with everyone jumping on the EV wagon.
@Mark Kahn the fact that they had a couple design breakthroughs this year and practically eliminated traditional tabs and high cobalt content while increasing capacity, reliability, efficiency and overall range (14+% in the sedan model)in effect does say they are moving forward pretty quickly. They are currently working on another itteration to eliminate cobalt and still increase battery performance.
Not 40% quickly but more than likely over a quadruple of that 5% by 5 more years. With the biggest mine deposit of lithium in the world just found nearby (Mexico) close to their Texas/California stations they have more legroom to improve faster.
@@colscott5016 what're you talking about? EV's have been out for a good while now. Major car companies such as gm, Nissan have been in the game over a decade.
I'm interested to see what the first full electric mustang (coupe) will look and drive like. The lack of a heat-pump heater in the Mach E would be a fairly major downside since I live in Canada.
Heat pump in Canada might be debatable. Below 40 F the heat pump efficiency drops rapidly. So at extreme temperatures they are very inefficient and you might as well use an electric heater like the Mach E.
I take possession jan 11 of my mach e. I just couldn't get a tesla after all the poor reviews. And many other factors. Top reason I got a mach e is the dealership is 2 blocks from my house. Tesla dealership 8 hour drive
I feel you Dylan. I made the decision for the Mach-E for the same reason. I'm just not sure I could buy a Tesla right now - not until Elon gets their QC actually properly working. The very notion of fit & finish issues on a car priced into the luxury segment is simply beyond ridiculous.
Congrats! Did you get extended range battery? It's a must-have in my opinion
@@minivanmaster yup awd extended range premium
@@dylanc9275 Lucky git. Though my have my criticisms it's still a great car.
I decided to buy the Mustang over the Tesla Y after months of going back and forth. Close, but Ford won my pocketbook.
I love how people say “It’s NOT a “Mustang”…” YET the manufacturer literally named it MUSTANG. Mustang VARIANT…? sure. But no matter how you try do dance around it, the car IS a Mustang. It is the MUSTANG: “MACH-E”
You're taking the name too literally. In everything except for its silly name, it's not a Mustang.
@ 🤣
As a CURRENT owner of a 2015 S550 and a 2022 Mach-E GT/P the only major difference is the Coyote rumble and the extra 2 doors…
Yes, the Mach-E feels heavier and less nimble but it makes up for it in raw power.
I’m not gonna argue with you about. I love BOTH of my MUSTANGS 🐎
🤣🤣🤣
@@THEDOPEGAME lol They're fundamentally different. One is a gas-powered sports coupe that's rear-wheel drive, while the other is an electric SUV that's all-wheel drive. Glad that you enjoy your Mustang and Mach-E.
Edit: while the Mach-E can be had in rear-wheel drive in the lower trim, it still is too different to be a Mustang.
Main thing that pushed me to my Model Y was the super charging network as I regularly go back and forth from California to Washington State.
Me; hoping ford brings back the thunderbird nameplate for a high end luxury Electric sedan with super slick concept-like styling
Reality; hah
Ford reusing old names is such a dull, white male executive thing...

@@mcrkon Most cars you love have names that are reused again and again
I don't think the Thunderbird nameplate should be on an EV. just like the Mustang nameplate don't belong on an EV. those are old nameplates and should be reserved for ultra high performance gasoline vehicles. EVs should have names better fitting vehicles of the future.
@@musicauthority7828 After 1955-57 on sporty "personal luxury" cars, and 2002-05, the Thunderbird name was on big fat luxomobiles. The T-bird was never a high performance car.
I hate Tesla interior, and the sound when you open/close doors, it gives feeling you are driving some cheap sht, but you pay a ton of bucks for it. Congrats Ford, Mach-E is a great car, I'd love to try a GT version. Hopefully Ford will provide better financing and leasing, so it can quickly take its deserved good place on the market.

Their OS was so glitchy, I'm not sure it'll work.
If they need a software update just to connect a single binary GPIO there is something very wrong with their development process.
I say this deserves the Mustang name more than the Mustangs built in the late 70's. :)
True that! Also accelerates and corners better than a 60s, 70s, or 80s Mustang. That's not actually saying much since that's true of even modern economy cars compared to old cars, but hey, it's still true.
Those Mustang II as seen in Charlie's Angels in 1977 were decent cars as GTs and Ford marketed them as Mercedes-Benz look-a-likes but they certainly weren't powerful sports cars.
@@mamadouaziza2536 They were worse than that IMO. A Pinto with a different body.
I think it does more than those hideous fox bodies.
@@RobbieFitzgerald Hey now! 😅😅
I drove a Mach e yesterday and was impressed! The only thing that I don't like is the glass roof. I like the single pedal braking and got comfortable with it quickly. Drove all the way home from dinner not having to use the brake once. I hope the rotors don't rust! Ford advantage? Dealers and service. The center display behind the steering wheel makes a big difference where the Tesla's panel looks cheap.
I’ve used summons twice when it was pouring outside. Although it’s extremely finicky and takes sometime to work, with the rest of what self driving does, I find it worth the price. When FSD, door to door, service comes out it will be worth even more.
Hows that FSD coming? Also-is there a way to keep your hands off the wheel---

Thumbs up for this honest review. You were the only reviewer to say that Tesla cars rattle, and the first to say who cares about a car driving towards you in a parking lot. As for the Mustang, I find those door buttons an exaggerated "futuristic" design. Imagine in a car crash trying to open a bent door. Worse, for living in Canada just forget opening those doors after a freezing rain. I would much rather have cameras replacing the side rear view mirrors - when is the legislation going to change on these ?
The interior of the Mach-E looks better. Don't know which one i would buy, but it looks better.
@Strawberry Kiys ahhh but the tesla is soo ugly that it makes the Ford looks good....
The interior mesh cloth makes me think of a smart speaker.
I'm sure that's intentional.
Mach E would be the smart choice, Model Y, so you can join the Tesla Femboys !
I like Tesla interior, futuristic look. Mach-E looks like old school, unfinished project just like BMW i3's interior.
Tesla is nice but no dashboard cluster, dull front end and cheap looking steering wheel are a real turnoff.

How is that different than the electric doors? Last I checked you open the door way more than the glove box.
My thoughts exactly. I'm not a fan of most of what they integrated into the screen. I don't want to move through menus or misclick something that used to be a simple physical knob.
I love the review. While I am closer in age to Roman, I love Tommy's point of view and am definitely sold on the Mach-E. The one thing I wanted to point out that I felt was a downside in the Tesla was the wipers, if you want to up/lower the wiper speed, you have to search for the button on the side panel. On the Ford, it is just a flip away. I personally think this is a safety issue for Tesla. Thank you both so much for the review. I was trying to figure out which suits me better, I am going to go with Tommy and the Ford. Looking forward to your future videos!
Forf Better reliability, fit and finish and quality but the Tesla has Better battery, charging network and tech

How do you know reliability on the Ford if it has completely new powertrain?
@@kristians2704 how do you know a brand new Toyota is going to be reliable? The supra, for all intents and purposes is a BMW and that doesn't stop people from assuming it's going to be reliable. Ford generally tends to be more reliable than Tesla on reliability ratings.
@@dtay8913 I'm a ford fan. I have an f150 and I think it's one of the best vehicles ever built, but tesla's reliability rating is pretty suspect. They have it rated way down because of minor issues like trunks and door handles. I haven't heard of a powertrain issue.
I wish the reliability ratings start when a vehicle reaches 10+ years old
I can go across country on electrify america too Mach e has plug and charge too

If a company fail to capitalize on the fact of being first on the market for anything, then it has no one else to blame but itself.
@JESUS H Yeah but it was like a POS
The estimated range on the Ford is actually based on the driving habits of the person behind the wheel, while the Tesla is a best case scenario.
Love my Model Y, but great to have more EV choices for all sorts of folks.
Nice to see Tommy reigning in his dad. Allows me to keep the faith in today's youth. This was an honest real world review. Good job.
Amazing for how long tesla has been doing this to still have qutility control issues with something like the trunklid.
That’s because they rely on fanboys to keep turning a blind eye to their faults rather than call them out so Tesla can become better.

The AWD Model Y is cheaper.
Good luck with dealer markups. I wanted a GT500 and it was listed at 45k over sticker.
@@TheDevonParker it’s still not as cheap as Mach e, Msrp is more and that’s before 7500 tax incentive.
@@Story_Teller_Everyone It's $45k (post tax incentive) Vs $50k but you get less range, much slower speed, now AWD and no Autopilot system. You can step up to the GT for $52k but then you get much less range and no Autopilot. So I'd call it a wash at best. I'm super excited and think it's a great first effort and they will have no problem selling them all for full price to those that don't like Tesla or love Ford. Hopefully they will be able to actually compete in a few years.

Awesome review guys. You guys Have a great chemistry. Bottom line is no one is going to touch Tesla when it comes to battery technology on EV cars. But glad there are other alternatives to Tesla as well. Just wish the price point was lower like in the mid 20s for base. 40 to 50 grand is a lot of money and there are plenty of other cars I’d rather have being a car enthusiast.

Raid shadow legends pays pretty well for there sponsor spots. I would take the money too. They have a business to run, in an expensive city, with a dozen employees.

Just discovered this channel. Great format, content, presenters. And this is just the comparison I was looking for.
Ford could have dug into its own history a bit and named this car the Model E.
I'd would have loved to have it named like that, although it wouldn't have turned as much heads
Ford is smarter than that. They aren't GM with the Bolt/Volt confusion. Model E Model 3 is just too close.
@@otm646 yeah, at least they're trying
The model E is coming.
That could be confusing with the Model 3, but also I would save that one for a mass market affordable car. Such things are inevitable and it could be a powerful marketing campaign.
They missed a good opportunity to troll Tesla and call it the "Model-T"
That would have been cool
Its a Musktang
You can use voice command to open the glove box, adjust mirrors, adjust AC/Heat and seat warmers etc...
TFL when doing interiors: “very nice, some plastics, but mixed well with other materials”
As soon as it’s a Ford... *spends seconds hunting for plastic to knock* (reaches behind steering wheel) “aH LoOk aT AlL tA pLaZtiks!”
Right? Complaining about the steering column being hard plastic is one of his dumbest moves yet, considering nearly all steering columns are hard plastic. Really made himself look pathetic with that one.
Agree 100%. They'll applaud these japanese automakers all day then get in a domestic and say it feels cheap. I had my escape in the shop from getting hit recently and had a Hyundai Tucson as a rental. I couldn't wait to get my escape back. The interior is so much nicer. The Tuscon had nothing but hard plastic!
🤣 I thought exactly the same. He wanted hand beaten aluminium.
He is a tool!
118 miles at 80% soc seems very Thirsty. Is it a Must-ang or Must-Charge....
Does the Mach E back seats fold so you can use entire back as a Bed
Ford also has the Federal tax credit, and Colorado has a state credit I believe.
Edit: they mentioned that, I was just impatient.
Doesn't Tesla still get the Colorado tax break?
But Mach-E will come with a stealership tax on top of its MSRP.
@@hchchc22 Is that a Colorado thing? Or are you alluding to the "Documentation Fees" dealerships typically add on? If the latter, totally negotiable. Have never paid one. But I'm unfamiliar with a "dealership tax."
@@chuckm260 stealership tax = dealership markup on newly released models
@@hchchc22 Ah, the ole ADM - additional dealership markup. Yea, not paying that either. I believe Ford wanted to or at least attempt to mimic the direct sales model (ala, Tesla, Rivian, etc), meaning no ADM. Unfortunately I've read reports (in forums) of some Ford dealerships, minimally in California, charging ADM on the Mach-E, however, there are many, many other Ford dealerships across the country that are not charging any ADM. I know of one forum maintaining a list of them. As a matter of fact I just returned from my local Ford dealer who is not charging any ADM on the Mach-E. These legacy auto manufacturers with dealership models clearly have a more complicated scenario to work through than those manufactures with true direct sales models. It will be interesting how this plays out over the next few years as more and more legacy auto manufacturers and their dealers pivot to EVs.
Oh, thank God for a rear wiper on the Mach-E. I don't like CUVs or coupes without a rear wiper - that window gets filthy in the winter.
Oh, and anytime Roman says "It's cool", it's definitely not cool. :) I'm with Tommy on that.
Thank you for this. Trying to decide between a Mach-e, a Model Y, Ionic 5, and id.4 - this was a great review.
I love that the rear seats on the Tesla don’t line up. That’s the story of Tesla is awesome tech. Sub par build quality
Wait til Ford doors start falling off again.
It’s kind of to be expected. Tesla is new, they need some experience to get their construction in check. To make up for, they send a technician straight to your door to fix any QC problems for free.
They’re currently outright embarrassing other car companies in terms of software and infotainment in general. So I can’t wait for them to get a better grip on manufacturing.
@@aominoa463 I agree on the technology side. I think other manufacturers will step up and be more competitive in the near future
@@jdockii So far they have failed to do so. Other manufacturers have had a lot of time to do software correctly, but so far they’ve failed miserably at doing so. Take the Audi Q5, for example. It has an awkward, small, unresponsive 20Hz display. With a separate pad where you have to DRAW what feature you want the car to use. Or the Mercedes C200, a car I’ve driven a lot. Which also has an awkward 10-20Hz unresponsive display, with bezels that are practically bigger than the actual screen. Not to mention a very dated looking operating system that requires you to BUY a separate SIM card in order to update it. Mind you, that SIM card will cost you well over 150 dollars. To interact, there is an equally unresponsive touch pad and a dial completely separate to the screen. Compared to what Tesla has composed in their short lifespan, the technology that is implemented so far in other big, veteran car brands is just.. An outright embarrassment. If you put the two next to each other, there isn’t even any competition to speak of.
Both the Audi and the Mercedes are far better built. They feel like they’re designed and assembled with care, by someone who knows what they’re doing. But their tech? They have a LOT to catch up on in that regard.
@@aominoa463 I agree on the most part. But I don’t think that advantages stay that way for too long. Just look at Toyota vs GM. Companies will always adapt to changing markets. I hope Tesla continues to do well but I get the feeling that other companies are going catch up
I’m with Tommy on this one, it’s not a Mustang. Should either be the GalaxE (good one Tommy) or the Te-bird (the ‘e’ being subscript (thanks youtube Apple app))
Although I agree that it isn't a traditional Mustang, Ford didn't call it a Mustang for no good reason. I think that they called it a mustang because as we know, the Mustang is associated with speed, performance, power, muscle, etc... and by giving the Mach-E the mustang name, it can associate it with speed, performance, power, muscle, etc... therefore making it a better competitor with other performance electric cars (Tesla!). And lets be real, no one is going to be deciding to buy a mustang and a Mach-E. Just my two cents!
Ford missed a *huge* opportunity by not calling this car the Model E.
1) They own the name "Model E." Tesla wanted to use the name Model E instead of Model 3, but Ford wouldn't let them. How awesome would it have been for Ford to not only deny Tesla the license to use the name, but then to make a competitor and call it the Model E?!
2) The name Model E reminds people of the name Model T -- the car that put America on wheels. The car that took the automobile from a niche product to a mainstream product. The Model E could've been the car that put America on *electric-powered* wheels! It could've been the car that turned the electric car from a niche product to one that *everybody* will own!
3) And Ford wouldn't have pissed off half their customer base by naming this car after the iconic Mustang. This car is *NOT* a Mustang in any way, shape or form. It *IS* an awesome car, no doubt!! But it is absolutely not a Mustang, and never should've been named after it!
Well done Ford! Thanks for the video. And have a Happy New Year!
Must skip, Raid: Shadow Legends.
I've heard a lot of comments from Mustang fans that hate on the Mach E. Being the owner of a (genuine) '70 Boss 302, I can understand it to an extent. BUT, this is the 1st 'Mustang' ever in which I can carry a drum kit. That is a big thing, bro.
Never under estimate the power of physical buttons and switches
I adjust the steering wheel once, on the day I buy a car, and I open the glove box once every 2 months maybe.
Also, Tom just don't understand that the electronic steering wheel has memory and can be repositioned according to the driver profiles. The mechanical steering wheel does not do it !
Is this so difficult to understand ?
@@jm-btt 🤷♂️ I guess. It takes seconds to adjust the steering wheel and mirrors. He is making a problem out of nothing. The Tesla has fewer buttons and I think that is better and cleaner too.
I love the idea of Father VS Son concept. Great job guys~ It's very handful and entertaining.
For all the trendy big screens being perceived as the way of the future, I feel the “old school” physical knobs and switches have their place (can use them without taking your eyes of the road, for starters), and the screens are distracting and too bright at night. I truly hope the trend fades quickly.
Some people can't leave internet to drive a mile. Just garbage cars.
My wife just bought a used Model S a couple weeks ago. I too thought the screen would be too bright at night. I was pleasantly surprised. They did a perfect job at getting the screen to be exactly the correct auto brightness for all times. I was never blinded by it. As far as the buttons go I set them up once the first time I drove it and it remembers me automatically when I get in the car. I hardly ever have to play with anything while driving. I like almost all others who drive a Tesla for the first time am a convert. No more gas cars for me in the future.
@@Widowmaker2828 All good things. However, I do feel that these automakers are too focused on these screens and not general comfort and overall design. Why does the interior have to look so stripped, other than the screen? There is so much opportunity for improvement beyond computerized memory and controls.
As a Model 3 owner, the screen isn't as bright or distracting as you might think. With that said, I dislike the trend of adding as many screens as possible, but maybe that's just because I like minimalism lol. When vehicles are autonomous having physical knobs and switches will feel stupid and that's why I love the 3/Y interior. Guess it doesn't really matter for anyone else though because no other large automaker has any hope of turning their vehicles into self-driving robotaxis with a software update.
@@dylanlong6269 I don't think I'll ever trust autonomous vehicles.
“Open glove box” is a voice command that you can use to avoid hitting the screen in Model Y.
Same with steering wheel adjustment, side mirrors, heated seats (at least model 3), and most everything else.
ya but then that would ruin his argument lol
I was going to post the same thing.
Yuck yuck, very funny... Tommy’s comments were good for laughs, but entirely misleading for a real car review.
Don’t need Apple CarPlay in Tesla. Using it in a Chevy Bolt, it can’t handle long lists and you end up with a weird situation when playing radio (built-in) and using Apple Maps or Google Maps navigation (via CarPlay). The blending the audio and lowering the volume when directions are given doesn’t really work. Tesla has Spotify, which wasn’t mentioned and there is talk of others like Amazon Music and Apple Music coming soon. Tesla also includes Netflix, RUclips, a web browser and games. Useful when stopping for a Supercharge on a long trip or waiting for your spouse while shopping.
The kid got lost in carpoole karaoke while looking for the heated seat settings. I would get lost too if I buttonsmashed the screen like a 7yo playing streetfighter for the first time
Still took longer than just reaching right away
I am a fan of the busy box that hung on my crib as a toddler. I would enjoy the option of high touch than take my eyes off the road. Voice command would be much simpler. Hey Tessy...Yes Gary?Let's cruise. Head lights know when to turn on or off and can change brightness if too many things drain energy. Or will turn off creature comforts or alert driver verbally the duration of the battery cycle. Just say:" Dome light on" or "Dome light off" as opposed to fishing for the function on the tablet." Tire pressure low...increasing pressure." Wiper arms activate automatically to inclement weather and like our electric rear defroster grid, have this integrated into all windows instead of a motorised blower motor to distribute heat which takes more time to melt thin crusted ice on windows while left outside. A verbal iteractive vehicle. Digital Odometer and speed limit indicator. A minimalist version of Knight Rider: Hey--Kit?.... .Yes Michael?
The gripe with changing the steering column is dumb in my opinion. How often are you changing that? Like once in a blue moon if at all? Most people set it once if at all, and leave it.
Yes = And - if you share the use of your car, then the Tesla moves everything into position for each driver (mirrors, seats, steering wheel, radio, climate etc), whereas in the Ford I and my wife would always be having to reposition things.
Do you not understand they are doing it for entertainment, they each are griping the other for the video, Tommy is a Tesla boy.
10:05, the heated seat quick access is right there at the lower center (Driver) and right side (Passenger) icon. Or you can just press the right steering button and simply say, "Driver seat heat on". Or you can even say "open Glovebox". The voice reignition is surprisingly good and intuitive in the Tesla.
Enjoy those handle-less back doors when they ice up
Tesla’s doors not only freeze up, the windows also freeze up and they won’t go down meaning you can’t open the doors. And that goes for all 4 doors. I have to defrost the car before I can get in. Luckily that can be done remotely.
False.. the door actuator is inside the doors weather stripping.Fordknows how to build car body’s and ice testing they’ve done before Elon was born. So if that’s your only knock, have a great day in the frigid cold.
@@brettbergman9396 apparently you've never lived in a cold climate...
You can use your phone to open the doors and when they open they pop out. I think I would be more worried about those door actuator handles on the Tesla freezing up. but a phone can be used on it too.
If they would've made the Mach-E a normal Mustang shape, I have a feeling that it would be a huge seller and have people excited about a competition to Tesla.
Making a Mustang into a crossover is just an abomination.
They made the charger into a cross over aka durango. Even the Lamborghini
I disagree, the practicality of the Mach E is what’s carrying it. If you see Fords numbers you’ll see it’s demolishing the ICE mustangs in total sales in its first year and even more so in its second year so far which is extremely hard to do.
Ford has been in vehicle game for a long time, they knew what the best approach was.
Roman & Tommy are the Siskel & Ebert of the automotive world.
If it's raining you might want your car to come to you or if there were people after you, you could summon your car to come to you. That way you don't have the hassle of looking for your car unlocking the door while trying not to get caught by whoever after you
I really love the look of the Mach-E, I actually considerd getting one since taxes here in Sweden on combustion cars are getting out of hand. But when I saw how laggy the center screen was I was like "nope". Maybe next generation.
Hur mycket har det gått opp typ?
Remember when the model 3 was released and it couldn’t even brake correctly? Just a thought
@@benmcdaniel3428 ABsoluitely, Im sure this can end up being a great car, but I would wait a year or so personally to get one. So they can sort out most buggs, and make it run smoother.
Always risky being an early adopter of a new line/generation of car no matter which one.
Since it seems that Roman isn't too thrilled with the Mach E, I'll happily come over and take it off his hands. :-)
I go with son
They don't want to lose west coast clicks from Tesla fanboys on their videos.
Well appears Roman has trouble with any touch screen. I’d bet the kid setup his personal setting on the catfish
Roman seemed like he was struggling to actually find reasons that the Model Y was better. Mach E handily wins in the ease of use department.
I love this format. You make a comparative review a lot of fun.
I’m for the Ford. Time to give Tesla a run!
Ford just lost :-)
Good luck
