It’s a great looking car. We test drove one before we bought our Ariya. I ended up buying the Nissan (the AWD dual motor model with the larger battery pack) We bought the Ariya bc it was a bigger interior and I liked that it had an operational panoramic sunroof with a shade.
I work for Ford and had to road trip cross country to test BlueCruise... Honestly they aren't bad to road trip. You are right in that public, non-Tesla charging stations are unreliable but I've never been stuck in a situation that really screwed me. The worst was when I was driving from Atlanta, GA to Jackson, MS. I had to charge in Meridian, MS and there was only two chargers... a level 2 at a Kia dealer and a level 1 at a sketchy motel. Of course the level 2 was down so I had to spend HOURS sitting around for it to charge at the level 1 to get to the next faster charger. Apparently MS isn't taking public charging very seriously because they're a known charging desert. But other than that, I loved road tripping it. It's so smooth and BlueCruise makes long road trips and even traffic much less stressful.
Wow that’s good to know coming from you. Im currently in FL and may have to drive back to CA with the car once I purchase it in FL, how would that route be ? Im actually excited for this car!
The insurance thing is valid unless you have a Tesla. They have their own insurance and have very cheap rates. I’m switching next month and it’s almost half the cost of a premium with any other provider.
I went all the way to Min in the California version and yes I did have to wait in some cases but I was able to do it and I will do it again! That's why Farley got Tesla to let their cars charge at their stations so that problem will be GONE. Can't wait till solid state batteries come! 10 min charging!
I bought a Mustang Mach-E and I would really like to have the Blue Cruise in Europe, unfortunately due to idiotic laws on autonomous driving maybe my grandchildren will use it.
Progress as evidenced by Tesla having to lower prices yet again. Due to flagging sales. People are coming to realize that electric vehicles aren't what they were made out to be.@@TK-vv6to
If it’s like my state there aren’t very many actual fast chargers 100kW+, the majority of the widely spaced remaining chargers are 20 or 50kW. The MachE can charge at 150kW so even the 70kWh pack short range battery is looking like an hour and a half to an hour forty five on 50kW, or four hours+ for 20kW. We need proper infrastructure which requires 350kW stations and when we get real electric trucks we will need megawatt charger stations like the ones we have now for commercial electric semis.
Prefer my 23 MYP, and a solid charging network that I can do road trips on. The acceleration never gets old, and my kid always says dad "Need for Speed". Put the sunabitch pedal down kid entertained just made their day and mine at the same time. I did really look at Ford for my first EV for the fact of the dealer network, glad I opted out of old ass tradition.
I think you really need to look into the filters especially your battery filter. That is the number one thing that will destroy your batteries is a dirty filter.
There is no battery filter on a MachE, it’s liquid heated/cooled. The coolant has no maintenance schedule because it typically lasts longer than the battery. You’re thinking of the air cooled leaf models that had all those overheating problems.
@@hugegamer5988 I think ford only started this liquid cooling system 4 years ago. So much is still needed to determine if this will withstand time. I’m surprised there is no scheduled changing of the coolant. I also don’t know if any others using this system.
u brave to buy a ford electric ford is a clown car the recalls and problems for the fords are nuts its so bad ford cant fix majority of the problems the return and used marked is flooded with these garbage
This just sounds like an ad for the car you can't sell for half the price you paid

Good reviewer. I still prefer my Tesla Model 3 Performance though. I do like the Mach-E's body design. Ford should keep improving this product.
That low small hood looks soo weird, though. And they're everywhere like Civics 🤢
Would love to drive a m3 performance, they are quick!
61yrs old and I learned a new word today. Frunk 😊👍🏽
In 2024 the tesla chargers will be opening up to Ford but you will need to buy an adapter. That will open up 12,000 tesla chargers to Ford EV’s
Can’t wait! Will make road tripping so much less stressful!
Where😂😂😂😂 we about to finished 2024
Very helpful. Thanks.
You're welcome!
Hi 👋🏻 thanks for the video! 🙏🏼 i have a question pls.. I intend to buy a GT 2022
is there also an option to watch Netflix and RUclips??
Well constructed videos Carlos!
I want a Mustang now. ( used )
Great video!! Love it
THANKS FOR WATCHING!

I bought the GT and you are so correct it makes me nauseous when in unbridled and driving fast. It is a lot of fun though!
You still did a good video, thank you

Please don’t park your EV in your garage as they can burn your home down when they take a hissy fit lol

I'm pretty sure that Tesla Insurance would have given you a lower rate if you had a Tesla.
Insurance was the same for me. Not sure what you came from…….
Good luck selling it or trading it in for a new car.
😂😂😂😂 Progress is so hard for some.

Really? You going to stop using your Mme on trips because of issues with charges? That doesn’t seem genuine.

The MachE can charge at 150kW so even the 70kWh pack short range battery is looking like an hour and a half to an hour forty five on 50kW, or four hours+ for 20kW.

Still prefer my hybrid get intsant torque and can take long trips.
Fair enough!
$5? What? I don’t think so.

Toyota also uses filters
No over heating problems in newer filtered systems

Ford is not what it used to be. Their trucks have a lot of problems now.
😂 haven’t had these crazy issues with mine..
My Ford Mach has been flawless and I charge it free when charging during the mid day with solar. This guy (Hawkeyes) is the only clown!
@@markgosser9578 what do you use to charge solar?
