    Whatever this forum told me to do
    agreed.

    road noise in the MS is OK. We had an LS460L before this one...the LS is like coffin quiet.

    but there is no motor noise. so you hear wind more. and tires make a diff.

    but the wind noise ain't bad, it's just you are able to hear it without the damn motor running.

    remember, the MS is the lowest drag coefficient car out there. only 2nd to that stupid Mercedes EV.

    wind & motor noise? the Tundra takes the cake! 8psi S/C + TRD exhaust is magical.

    Ford Mustang Mach-E Recalled Because Battery Can’t Handle Owners Flooring It


    https://www.thedrive.com/news/ford-...ecause-battery-cant-handle-owners-flooring-it

    Ford is recalling nearly 35,000 units of the 2021 and 2022 Mustang Mach-E equipped with the extended-range battery over concerns that the electric crossover could lose power while driving. The recall is the Blue Oval's second attempt to resolve an issue with a component found inside of the Mach-E's high voltage battery pack that may fail while DC fast charging or flooring the car's accelerator pedal one too many times.


    Ford first issued a software update as part of a 2022 recall. The update would monitor the temperature of the affected part and reduce battery power to avoid overheating, though this appeared to not fully address the defect as owners still reported problems following the update, sparking a federal investigation over the effectiveness of the fix.

    Karma for putting a muscle car moniker on an SUV, let alone an EV.

    MYP demo. Tell you what, the must do process improvement. This was quieter than our MYLR rental last December.

    MYP is insane and drives incredible. FB and Reddit had me worried the suspension was jarring but it was great. After 30 min demo drive gettin back to the raptor was so disappointing lol.

    Which drive mode did you have it in?

    Too bad they don’t unlock the track package for demos, but I get it :laugh:

    I’m not sure. They have a MYLR with matrix and HW4 on the lot and a MYP coming in like 5 days. I think I’m going to do the LR. I loved the performance but I really just needed the matrix lights.

    My MYLR was speed limited to 85 on my demo drive. And I hit that in a HURRY from 60 on the highway. Don't blink.

    You going with the 3 row? I would do the Performance I think because it's not much more than the LR, and my kids would probably complain in that 3rd row all day long. And the fact it has no air vents to the 3rd row is stupid. My 5th gen 4Runner was like that. No ventilation to the 3rd row. Kids hated it.

    Hopefully you had time to play with all the toys on the screen
    Light show, boom box, games (you can use the steering wheel too as a controller for driving games) sketch pad, fire place (instant heat) temp settings / adjustments, stereo, etc.

    My daughter found the fart in like 5 seconds.

    The LR they have is 5 seats. I wouldn’t do 7, if I needed 7 I’d just get a large suv.

    Not 3 row. I’m debating. I’ll prob reserve the LR and check it out. If I like it I’ll keep it if not I’ll have her move it to the incoming MYP

    You can also do the fart via app, and have it open the drivers door for you. I fully just use it to check the charge of the car, adjust my preset temps as needed and or turn on heated seats, or steering wheel
