Nice informative video. Thanks!
@lianalonge1984 Thanks for watching!
haha, I didn't pull my mats up because I was scared if I was wrong I would rip out the hold-downs, but you gave me the clue on how to do it, thanks
@whatwhodid7152 - I had the same concern before I removed them, which is why I made the video.
Its exciting 🙂
I agree! 🤗
Ok now how to remove the carpet under floor mat
🤔 No idea. Why would you want to?
It would be nice to see some non-tesla vehicles using the supercharging system. I say this as a Tesla owner that uses CCS charging all of the time. Honestly, the charging rates are cheaper with Chargepoint, Electrify America, etc than they are with the Superchargers. I think my only concern is that they most definitely need to build more fast charging stations for both Tesla and non-Tesla vehicles. I feel like there's more and more waiting lines becoming common, etc which I never used to deal with at all anywhere and that they're selling more EV's now in general than they are keeping up with the public charging aspect. Great video and thank you for sharing it with us
I agree...not only do we need more charging stations, but they need to be reliable. More and more I find stations with broken chargers that are not being fixed. Thanks for watching!
@@MachEandMe I’m finding this often, as well! Both tesla and non-tesla chargers that are out of order or not working properly. Subscribed to your channel, keep up the great videos!
So should I go on ahead and buy a Tesla adapter now or wait until Ford sends me one??
I am waiting for Ford to send me the adapter. I haven't looked lately, but the other adapters I've seen in the past were for the level 2 chargers, not fast chargers.
Perfect, Thank you! Was afraid to pull on it.
Do you have a link to the Frunk organizer you show in your video?
No, they were included when I bought my car in 2021. It is my understanding that the inside hood release button didn't work back then so the dividers were a safety feature. Many people removed them, but I like them.
✊Vapor Bule or orange 👍
Honestly I think Tesla's future isn't in making cars but making the chargers. Tesla's cars are actual trash but they have the best chargers.
Thank you
You're Welcome!
Unless you CURRENTLY have access to a Tesla Supercharger with a MagicDock.
True, but after 3 months there are still only 11 locations with the MagicDock and they are in New York and California. Hopefully we can get the adapters quicker than their MagicDock is rollout.
I think that if Americans want to transition to a cleaner more sustainable future, this is a step in the right direction.
I agree.
Yeah! Looking forward to next spring and taking some road trips with the adapter.
Me too!
Is this available for Ford E-Transit
It seems to be available for all their electric vehicles once you activate the BlueOval Charge Network. To double check, you could call Ford customer service at 800-392-3673
Thank you for keeping this simple! I had no idea what to do, and didn't want to break something.
I followed the steps in one of your videos and tested the plug and Charge on one of the EA stations and it worked perfect. Then on a road trip it didn’t and just charged us regular price. Can you suggest what can I do to fix it. I still have 240 kWh left.
It has been a while since I had free charging and is difficult to know what's wrong without being there. However, it worked once, that is a good sign. I would double check that plug and charge is still turned on in the app (an update may have changed it) and double check your registered credit card didn't expire. If it still doesn't work, call Ford customer service 800-392-3673. Good luck
I followed every step but my free hours aren't showing on the app
That's annoying. Are they showing in your Ford account online? Give it a day, if it doesn't show, then call Ford Customer Service to see if they can help 800-392-3673.
Hey do you know if you get the free charge in the uk ?
Just got my mach-e which I order before they close 2022 orders They pretty much gave me all the standard option for 2023 without the price increase despite not being in my original order. Luckily I was price lock in so it was a nice free upgrade
Nice!
Thanks for the info.. just put an order in for a Select .. also I think I'm your 300th sub ;)
Yeah! Thank you! Did you pay the extra $1900 for unlimited access to the 360 degree camera (and 3 years of BlueCruise)? I believe that is something you can add later (if you decide after your 90 day trial that you want it).
@@MachEandMe I actually found out it was tied together from your channel and comments. Not a fan of that decision! I will probably do it. I ordered the new vapor blue just to be different
@@edm3184 I like that color. Enjoy!
I am hearing that there is a max AG income threshold to be eligible
This video is for 2022 and earlier. The tax credits for 2023 recently changed and I haven't reviewed them yet. However, I heard the new law has an income limit.

Does the select basic model come with 360 camera system? It sounds like from Ford website that we would need to purchase Blur Bruise in order to use the 360 camera system. Can we just get the 360 camera system for parking only?
The 2023 Select model does come with the 360 camera hardware (unlike previous years). However, it is my understanding that Ford will only give you access to the 360 camera for 90 days unless you purchase the "Full Activation of Ford BlueCruise Feature" for $1900. If you purchase this, it should permanently unlock the 360 camera and give you 3 years of BlueCruise. I am not aware of an option to only unlock the 360 camera without BlueCruise. Ford might consider the $1900 as the cost to unlock the camera and giving a 3-year trial of BlueCruise for free (since all other 2023 models get a 3-year free trial of BlueCruise), but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Do you know if Blue Cruise is subscription based for the 2022 select with the tech package?
BlueCruise is subscription based for all models. Ford has given most (if not all) vehicles a free trial (I received 1 free year for my 2021 Premium). Are you considering a new 2022 Select? You could ask for a free trial if it doesn't already come with one.
Yes I have one that is scheduled to be built in October. I was hoping it would come with unlimited Blue Cruise
@@edubs21 That would be nice. However, BlueCruise isn't much different than Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go and Lane Centering Assist except your hands don't have to be on the steering wheel for BlueCruise. You may find you don't need it.
does the gt come with moon roof or sun roof or nothing at all?
Glass Roof 😊
@@MachEandMe but it doesn’t open am i right?
@@lakerfreak03 No, the glass roof doesn't open.
Very well presented, and good information
Thanks!
Hi maybe you can help me out I got my mme 6 months ago I use the plug and change 1 time now it said is a problem I call FordPass and open a ticket but is been 4 months and nothing I only charge at home and if I go somewhere is a Struggle to pay and charge
That is unfortunate and I am not aware of this issue. It has been a while, but I had good results with calling Ford Customer Service at 800-392-3673. Good luck!
@@MachEandMe thanks I will keep calling
I hear that this is the best EV on the road today. ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️
I love mine!
Is there an income limit? I made alot of money so i know Im going to owe atleast 10K..Under the current program I am assuming if I owe 10K in taxes on upcoming tax season buying my mach e I will only owe 3500 correct? I read this new credit coming into effect is limited to I think under 200K but then you wouldnt owe anything probably anyway so it becomes moot? The current program seems better right now if you get one before the 200,000 car is produced?
If you bought the car in 2022, there isn't an income limit. If you buy it in 2023, I think they did add an income limit. I will read the changes and upload a video about it soon. I read conflicting information about what happens in 2022 after the new tax credit passed. But if the tax credit doesn't change for 2022 and you bought the car this year and owe $10,000 in tax liability for 2022, then you should be eligible for $7,500 in tax credit so your total liability for 2022 would be $2,500. True, more people seem eligible under the old tax credit, but Ford is expected to reach the 200k in EV/PHEV sales soon. Before the new tax credit passed, I expected next year to be Ford's phase out year. I am curious how Ford will handle the requirement of EV Battery materials. A month ago, they reached an agreement to acquire battery packs from a Chinese supplier, which I believe would make the car ineligible for the new tax credit (again, I need to read the new tax credit bill to fully understand if this is a problem for Ford).
Didn't know that on the chinese battery... I would think that's not a good move if people are trying to collect 7500? I sure hope not... I ordered a mock in March and I still have don't even have a build date and I believe it's going to be a 2023 now... I was wondering with all the shortages and since I ordered back then that maybe they won't hit their $200, 000 just yet because they haven't been building anything
@@Giantsblue23 They have been building, but haven't caught up to their orders yet. If you do not receive and pay for the car until 2023, then the new tax credit will be in affect. I am guessing some dealerships will possible find a way to make purchases hit in 2022, but if you pay for the car before you see it and check it out...that could be a problem. If you need the tax credit to hit your taxes for 2022, you could start looking around at available stock, which is usually slim and over priced (supply and demand). However, there are people who place orders and don't want to wait so they buy from the lot. They "cancel" their order, but the dealerships usually don't cancel it. When their order comes in, it is available to the public for purchase. Some dealerships do not excessively mark it up, but you would have to do your research.
Thanks so much... I have heard and seen all about the gouging and I just won't buy if that's the case. I have a local dealer that won't do that but I am not opposed to reaching out to find one that won't do that as well. If you know of any let me know. Thanks for all your help
@@Giantsblue23 FYI, I just read that if you have an existing, unscheduled 2022 model, Ford is giving private offers to upgrade to a 2023 model.
Will they still have the ice white package available?
I haven't heard yet. Hopefully, Ford.com will open order banks in the next few days and we can find out all the 2023 model changes.
Order banks open yesterday
Did they? I know they were suppose to, but the 2023 model isn't showing as an option on Ford.com. I have heard rumors that it was pushed to August 25th and rumors it will be pushed to September.
@@MachEandMe dealer 📞 called me yesterday said they are taking orders now
@@DoorDashers791 Nice!
No they didn’t, they are opening up on August 30th
this is like telling us ahead of time what color shoes a stripper will wear. I can't imagine anything less newsworthy then putting a different color on a mess of a car
Sounds like you know more about messy strippers than I do.
@@MachEandMe quickest analogy I could come up with. Maybe I should focus on the big news that they've increased the range from 230 to 240 MI. Whoopee. Anybody with a brain wouldn't pay MSRP or more for a car firstly, and anybody that knows anything about battery technology knows that there's big advances coming and the cars will get much cheaper and longer range. It's got the wrong name the wrong performance and is less than the sum of its competitors but cost more. I see no reason to buy it. But for some I guess it's too late. But don't piss on the public and tell them it's raining because for every positive review there are 10 negatives and if you work at a Ford dealership you know that it was not a good idea to buy this first year especially from the company like f
Oh I hope this is right! I love that my iced blue silver Mach e is rare.
Me too! I love that my Infinite Blue is rare. 😊
🤯🤯🤯
Wait, so you don’t get free Electrify America charging for 2 years, only 250kWh worth for 2 years?!
Yep...I know other EVs receive more. Since I do not travel that much, it hasn't effected me that much (and you can find free fast chargers occasionally).
Can you tell me more about free fast chargers?
@@Don_McQueen There are apps like ChargePoint or Plug Share you can use to find charging stations. You can usually request to see free charging stations only (under filters). Around me, new ChargePoint stations are usually free for a few months. There is one ChargePoint station near me that is always free. I usually get at least 55kW while using ChargePoint stations (up to 80% state of charge).
Oh yeah 43k everyone can afford that. Oh and then another 5 k for a charging station in your garage. Oh wait you don`t have a garage? Just run a 240 volt line into the street.
EVs are not for everyone, but I love mine. Where did you get the $5k price for a charging station? It cost me under $1k and that was after the huge price increase of electrical cable.
@@MachEandMe you did it yourself. my son has p 90D and that`s what it cost him installed . Want to see the bill? You get my point!
@@scbird1 No, I had an electrician install it. Am I understanding you correctly, your son has a P90 D aka a Tesla Model S? Those are twice as expensive as the Mach E and I cannot comment on what his Model S may need for charging, which made his bill $5k. Are you against all EVs or just the Mach E?
I am from Australia and I ordered my Mustang CS via the dealer in January 2022. I have received a welcome email from Ford. When I checked with the dealer he said Ford is changing build dates on weekly basis. Now expected delivery date is the end of October 2022.
Wow...that is a long time to wait. Last year, I waited 4.5 months and I think it was worth the wait. Hopefully, you will agree when you receive it.
🤯
I just watched a video of a guy on CZcams taking a trip from Colorado to Los Angeles and I was so shocked at how buggy this car is, the frustrating charging station experiences and the absolute nightmare with constant error messages and advice to check the manual. Seriously I would have gone insane if I got such an expensive lemon.
Thanks for focusing on worst case scenarios to represent a whole lineup and for not mentioning his drive back, which was markedly better.
Luckily, this is not my experience.
You can't even order it in the UK
At all? Right now, in the US we can't order it, but the 2023 is expected to go on sale in August.
@@MachEandMe yeh I finally got my company to agree to get one and UK ford said not taking anymore orders til next year, there’s a massive recall too on many of the last models out.
@@connor25 Yep...another recall. I am hoping it doesn't affect my car.
U just got my 22 mach e gt in cyber orange 😃
@JcherraX I love that color and I heard the GTs are amazing to drive. Do you love it?

How to figure which EA is participating?
I think most of them participate. You should be able to clarify which EA stations participate in the Ford Pass App. This video will help you navigate finding Plug & Charge stations in the Ford Pass App: czcams.com/video/Uh6lYgQwLfY/video.html
@@MachEandMe thanks!
P/C is only Electrify America Stations
When I first received my car, the FordPass app listed 2 companies that had plug and charge capabilities. Since none were in my area, I do not remember the other company . Now, the Ford website only mentions Electrify America, but I do hope as new charging stations are built that Ford will add more options. EA can be up to twice as expensive in states that they charge by the kWh (at lease for the Mach-E charging curve) and I think/hope the competition will keep prices reasonable.
@@MachEandMe Greenlots/Shell was the other one. You can still use the Ford Pass to charge on other chargers, just not plug/charge
@@RickNoppenberger That was it...Greenlots. I know they are expanding. And true, we can charge at other places that do not offer plug and charge, but plug and charge is convenient.
Mine was ordered on March 12. Still waiting for first email about parts in stock to begin build. Was curious to know from anyone that recently received the parts in stock email...when was their order was placed?
@TomTortolani That was a while ago. If you are not receiving updates from your dealership, call Ford Customer 800-392-3673 to find out the current status.
I thought if you paid the $1800 when you bought the car you got it
Over a year ago, I saw some documentation that implied a BlueCruise 3-year subscription was included on some models if you paid extra to add the necessary BlueCruise hardware to your car. So, some people may have it included with their purchase, but that didn't last very long. I bought a Premium, so the hardware was already included, but not the subscription. Currently, the Ford website has a FAQ for "Was BlueCruise added when I purchased my vehicle?" (www.ford.com/support/how-tos/ford-technology/driver-assist-features/ford-bluecruise-frequently-asked-questions-faqs/), which states that you can purchase a car equipped with the hardware for BlueCruise and, when available, you can purchase the software. I am surprised they do not automatically offer a free trial, but maybe they will change that in the future.
Hi! At what percentage do you typically charge? And how long does it take to get to 80 / 100%?
Hey! Recently, my trips have be less than 4 hours each direction, which with the extended range battery I could make without stopping. However, I prefer to stop every 2.5 - 3 hours, to stretch my legs, bathroom break, get food, etc. (all are possible while the car is charging, and Electrify America has a lot of stations at Walmart and near restaurants). If we were traveling farther (and stopping less), I would make sure I charge before getting to 10% in case the planned station isn’t working (and I make sure there is a backup charging location nearby just in case, but most Electrify America stations have 4 chargers, so I haven’t had a problem). Check out the app “A Better Route Planner”…it is very helpful in planning long trips (video coming soon). When stopping every 2.5 to 3 hours, your charges are shorter. My last trip, I started at 100%, drove 165 miles, stopped to charge which took 21 minutes to go from 42% to 80%. Other trips last month I experienced: 19% to 62% in 25 minutes, 12% to 40% in 13 minutes (charger was expensive so I charged just enough to get to cheaper charger I was familiar with), 45% to 80% in 20 minutes, and 18% to 80% in 35 minutes). The charge speed drops at 80% so if I do not need more, I stop there. However, since Ford updated the charge curve, I can go from 80% to 94% in about 15 to 18 minutes. I never charge over 94% at a fast charger because the speed decreases significantly and it would probably take you an additional 30 minutes to 1 hour for that last 6% (which is more expensive than gas at that rate if you are being charged by the minute). FYI, I find Electrify America (when charged by the minute) is about half the cost of gas if charging to 80%, about the same cost as gas if charging from 80% to 94%, and over twice as expensive than gas if charging over 94%. If charged by the kWh, Electrify America is almost the same cost as gas right now (at least the price of gas in GA right now).
That's good to know. Did you ever try one from shell? I think they re part of the network too
No, I just looked and they do not have any in my area yet. I noticed that Shell will be rebranding NewMotion and Greenlots.
Great video! You always have the best Mach E information 🚙
Thank you! You made my day. 😊
@@MachEandMe ☺️ Went to the dealer today. My order is in and all my information is correct. No order number yet from Ford. They are backed up🚙
I like those ideas. My first answer is always take out food. The idea with the charger is great. Real good advises in this video!
Thanks!
Its really a good tip. But what if the toggle does not work in the app? I had this before. I still went charging and it did not charge towards my account. Then again a lot of people like you mention had issues.
Interesting...I haven't had a problem with the toggle not working (knocking on wood right now 😊).
