Two things...First you can change the "feel" of the wheel and pedals to make it feel more tight and sporty or loose and relaxed for the handling. Second I definitely recommend the extended warranty as well and even got mine for free :-). And a P.S. if you do have issues I have had much better luck calling Ford themselves than dealing with the dealers. The dealers don't even know what's wrong or how to use anything in the car from what I have seen at the 4 dealers I have been too but when I called Ford themselves they worked everything out for me.

You can disable the feature that makes it slow more when you take the foot off the gas. That's called "one pedal driving" and you can disable it from the menu. I drove one of the Premium AWD non-GT models and I really liked it but... no way I'd ever buy one lol. Very nice car though. Very comfortable and nicer than a Tesla imo.

The top speed is limited almost certainly to protect the batteries. The safe discharge C-Rate is likely right at it's limit at 125 mph. Even at 125 mph if driven for extended periods the core temperature will climb to point where the cooling system struggles to maintain a safe temperature.

I had already sourced a 4 door SiR cluster, with white gauges that with orange needles, that were backlit, looking dark with white numbers at night, that was calibrated to 190 km/h, just above the fuel cut-off, which used most of the dial compared to the one calibrated to 240 km/h.

Scotty. You missed the Mach-E in the list of Ford cars on your last scan tool!

My big concern is built-in obsolescence using software. I can see the future of these requiring a subscription just to have your car run.

The mirrors fold when the button is pushed regardless of speed. Every Ford I've ever driven is this way. Same with Nissan. While inconvenient for mirror usage, it has no effect on lane departure or blind spot monitoring systems. Lane departure is handled by a camera at the top of the windshield and blind spot is handled by radar sensors in the rear quarters of the vehicle, in this case, most likely behind the sides of the rear bumper cover.

I rented a Porsche Boxster 6mt for a vacation in Miami. The drilled brake disk were noisy but not bad but the brake dust were just horrendous. I can't imagine if that Mach E had them.

There was a Mach E in that OBD drop down menu, try that instead of mustang

There are way too many people and companies willing to do this. It may take a few months until the decipher any manufacturers attempt to protect access but all will eventually be hacked.

How often do you take a phone, TV, computer or microwave oven in for service? The stuff on an EV most likely to wear out are tires, brakes, wipers, door locks, seat mechanisms. 75% of the moving parts of an ICE are eliminated. Old school mechanics will be repairing older and older poorer condition machines. The simple to do stuff doesn't need ASE certification. The complex stuff will need better diagnostic equipment than a Honda HDS, but will reduce the number to diagnosticians, because there will be fewer modules that are more easily accessible, and they will be exchanged, not fixed in the field. THAT'S why Scotty is smart to retire now.

Scotty! On the 3rd scan tool I saw the Mach-e option...it was 2 lines ABOVE the mustang selection...try it again and see what it says

Great stuff, always interesting and on the level.

Missed the Mach-E on your $7,000.00 scan tool; just above the Mustang.

I will relate this to my battery operated tools. One of my batteries carry about 15-18650 cells. It used to hold 4 bars of pwr, now it holds only 3 bars. I'm guessing one of the cells is out, so with constant charging of this EV...well... you know.

I do know. Your drill battery's life is less than 1000 discharge cycles, the car cells are multiples of 10,000. People don't normally wait until they run out of gas to refill an ICE, will act similarly if not more conservatively with EVs. Your electric drill doesn't use the same chemistry in its batteries, doesn't have software controlled power drain and doesn't have nearly the quality of under and overcharging protection that these cars do.

And the foreign car companies can sell the Accord, Civic, Camry, Corolla, Altima, Sentra, Jetta, Legacy, Impreza, etc. MAYBE the issue is Ford just can't figure out how to profitably build a sedan Americans actually WANT to buy! In the old days the Maverick car, Fairmont, and Taurus were all huge sales successes for Ford. Maybe they have the wrong people at the car division.

Scotty, Check your last scantool again... Mach-e was on the list of cars you could select... It's not listed under Mustang. It was a separate listing called Mach-E...

The camera for the lane departure system is generally attached to the windshield, in the same region as the rear-view mirror. With this car, you can see it from the outside as that trapezoidal region at the top-middle of the windshield. The side mirrors should have nothing to do with lane departure... unless I'm missing something. Even blind-spot detection is usually done via sensors mounted in the rear quarters of the vehicle. The mirrors just have the indicators.

It weighs as much as my 79 Lincoln MK V. And, yes, it is a lot more efficient than my 4,600 pound car. But, mine is more beautiful and more comfortable. And I also think that replacing my entire fuel system for less than $300 is a lot cheaper than paying $24,000 to replace the battery on that there Mach E.

Their model includes the upfront carbon footprint of mining operations. Unfortunately, some in the media have skewed their reporting to meet an agenda just like how some have pushed a narrative that the U.S. power grid is predominantly coal when in reality coal represents only about 20 percent of the grid.

On the manual scan. You scrolled right by where it said Mach-E. Might've been able to get some info with the 3rd scan tool

Zero emissions they say but they didn't tell you how much pollution making those machines. You'll need to drive those EVs a hundred thousand miles before it will equal the amount of pollution produced by internal combustion engine. That is if it even reaches a hundred thousand, then you got to replace the batteries for more pollution.

The only reason Ford put the Mustang name on this car is to sell it. To the best of my recollection, there was never a 4 door Mustang. You can call it a Mustang all you want, but it's no Mustang in my book. This is purely a marketing ploy to get their EV sales numbers up. And let's be clear, the big 3 are not making and selling EV's to compete with Tesla, it's to get their fleet milage numbers up to meet the EPA's fleet mileage requirements. IMHO.
