2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Prices Increase Across The Board
fordmantpw replied to ice-capades's topic in E.V. Central
Thanks! Definitely...life is so much less stressful (so far), and I am really enjoying what I'm doing. It helps to have a contract and be 110% billable for the next 12-15 months. Thank you! Shameless plug...if you need any software development in the future, hit me up! -
2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Prices Increase Across The Board
fordmantpw replied to ice-capades's topic in E.V. Central
Of course they did...I bought a 23 back in late October! However, the price I paid is pretty comparable to today's prices. I had a decent rebate (11k) + the $3750 tax rebate + $2500 incentive from my employer for buying an electric vehicle (it's an electric company). Since I no longer work for that employer (I quit to run my own business a week ago), I wouldn't qualify for the $2500 and the tax rebate is now gone, so I feel OK. -
2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Prices Increase Across The Board
fordmantpw replied to ice-capades's topic in E.V. Central
I believe these increases are just over the LOWERED '23 prices, not the original '23 prices. Equipment differences exist between '23 and '24 models as well. For instance, the GT now comes standard with the magnetic shocks, which you had to get the GTPE to get in '23 (a $5k option). So, a $70k GT in '23 is now $54k. At least, that's the way I'm reading it. -
Ford Sales February 2024 - Up 10.5% Overall
fordmantpw replied to rmc523's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
We loved ours! Ours was one of the first, an '09 model. We drove it for 127k miles before downsizing to an Escape as our kids got older and we didn't need the 3rd row anymore. It was ahead of its time with the luxury-like interior. -

The MY of the truck doesn't matter, does it? Doesn't the date the truck is produced determine the emissions regs? -
Ford EV Owners Will Officially Receive FREE Tesla Adapter
fordmantpw replied to ice-capades's topic in E.V. Central
Good news! On the one road trip we've taken with the Mach-E, this would have come in handy. It would have saved us a stop as the Tesla chargers were right next-door to our destination, but we had to stop at an EA charger on the way home. -
Farley Says Boring Vehicles Are Going Away
fordmantpw replied to silvrsvt's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Not completely true. My wife nicknamed her 2020 Escape Karen. She could be a real b*$ch with all her sensors going off when there appeared to be no need! LOL! -
Wait, what? What's all that stuff you are referring to?
-
Exactly! We wouldn't have a Mach-E if we couldn't charge it at home. We've got about 2500 miles on it so far, and have used public chargers twice, both on a trip to "the city" (STL). The first charge was at a free public charger (L2, slow), the second was at a fast charger. Neither was a problem, we just had to walk a little farther to the stores we were going to. It's wonderful not having to go to gas stations, especially when it's so freaking cold out!

I don't think that is appropriate for such an awesome, world-changing vehicle. If we don't all switch to electric vehicles in the next 3 years, the world will end. Sir. ?

Likewise with an Escape and Corsair.

A $4500 windshield has absolutely nothing to do with what propels the vehicle. That's the stupidity of the CyberTruck! Those other issues are specific to the Rivian and NOT EVs in general. Sure, a little more car has to be taken into account to make sure the battery isn't compromised, but it's not that drastic. Our Mach-E costs a bit more to insure than the Escape it replaced. However, the sticker price is double the sticker of the Escape, so I expect the cost to insure to be higher. Kinda like, common sense, you know?

Anyone here live in or near Salem Missouri?
fordmantpw replied to Danford1's topic in Lounge: Off Topic Discussion
I'm about 90 minutes north of Salem, but unfortunately, I don't have the time for a 4 hour round trip. Here's a Missouri sub-forum on a Ford truck forum. There's a bunch of good guys in there, and one may be close and able to help you out: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum104/ Good luck! -
I see no mention of the GT. Is it gone for '24? Or is that a separate order guide?

LOL! We do love our Mach-E GTPE, though!
