Plenty of buttons and crazily... an internal combustion engine bolted to a real manual transmission with 3 pedals and everything.

So did you buy it from a museum..??

Hmm... trying to guess this mystery vehicle. Is it a Blackwing?

Ford had to stop taking orders because they couldn't keep up with the demand with the current supply chain issues and $6.00 a gallon gas prices and $7500 tax rebate that will soon expire

Actually tried to order one recently but waited too long.....not taking anymore orders on Fords website

They are a better looking Tesla Y for much less money

Tesla has been a very successful vehicle recently, and it is my recommendation.

Quite a review! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Good luck with the new car.

Personal gripe: people calling a storage area that drains a "cooler." No, it's not a cooler. Coolers have insulation that um- keeps things cool. These are simply storage areas that drain. Completely different.

That's nice. I own one and cannot recommend them. The motor/battery technology is great but the rest of the car is pure trash.

Same.

People complain about Tesla build quality but I had a Ford Explorer. Biggest piece of shit for 50k. Rattled after 500 miles, the 10 speed auto is PURE GARBAGE. The car was so bad I had to trick someone I know to take over the lease. That’s when I got my model 3 lol.

I’ll never buy another Ford again.

People complain about Tesla build quality because it's pure shit. Anecdotal experience with a Ford Explorer has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Tesla can't build a decent vehicle. Anyone that cares can simply follow the link as these photos are of brand new cars delivered in condition far worse than the lowliest legacy automaker. You hear the stories that Tesla build quality has improved but really it's still horrendous.

Mach-E is a good product. But it already is getting dated when it comes to DC fast charging. Peak is only 150kw and that is only seen in the first 10% of the curve. The Mach-E charging curve is nothing special, dips below 100kw around 30%. Hyundai/Kia E-GMP platform is one of the best EV platforms at the moment, much better than Fords. Overall Tesla is still king, especially when you consider their unmatched charging network. They actually service their network unlike EA.
