We'll be driving to the Lake of the Ozarks over Labor Day weekend. Still haven't figured out if I want to try this for the first road trip in my SR. It will take at least one stop in Springfield for a re-charge and then figuring out how to wire up some 240 at the lake.
Looks like Dierbergs in Osage Beach has an Ameren DC charging station, go charge while you get groceries. Let me know what you figure out cause I'm going to Camdenton area for deer season and I'll need a plan...
I've never had trouble with Lebanon and folks were there with their ID.4 about a week ago with no issues. It was actually their first DCFC experience (and second day of ownership) going from Springfield to Ft. Leonard Wood and back. All of the EA chargers in Missouri have had some pretty bad comments over the last couple of months, especially Sullivan. Kum & Go in Springfield is nice, but I don't think you can get full 125kw on 400v vehicle--at least I haven't. It's also expensive. If you have time to kill the VW dealer is free and you can kick the tire on a Taycan...
Repairs? Any details?DELIVERED!!
Only now I have to wait about a week for detailing and repairs… so close! Sure do hope it wasn’t the raccoons at the rail yard this time
Not yet. Hoping it’s a blanket statement, but our ID.4 and the one my folks just bought were turned around the day after arrival. I don’t think we’ve ever had a delivery take more than a day or two to turn around.
Jesus! I thought my dealer wanting $2300 for 5 year/75k plan was overkill at triple the price of granger. Your dealer is asking for almost 7x their cost. Sick.Mhmm. Pickup is scheduled for tomorrow. They still installed the “security alarm” but will disable it and not charge for it….
I also had to decline the:
$5995 service plan
$4995 maintenance plan
$1295 perma plate coating
Which brought my XLT SR cost up to $77k …
Do folks actually fall for this nonsense ?
Fingers crossed for no more surprises tomorrow.
I just noticed similar dots on my hood (black). Though they are much more spaced out. Was the dealer able to correct ?If your truck was sitting around Dearborn for a couple of months before you get it, make sure your dealer does a thorough examination of the paint during PDI.
My dealer called me this afternoon letting me know they were going to need extra time detailing my truck. When it arrived the exterior was filthy and nobody caught that there were calcified spots in the paint. It was just the keen eye of the detailer who noticed the paint wasn't as good as it should be. Apparently they are giving it a vinegar bath to remove the spots.
I'm guessing that at some point during the two months my truck set in Dearborn parking lots something happened that caused the spots. My salesperson described it as "acid rain" but I don't know if that is a accurate assessment.
My dealer has been in contact with Ford several times today getting this dealt with between Ford and the dealer.
I didn't see the spots and I may not have ever noticed them.
Edit: The spots still need to get straightened up. Not sure if it is something like a clay bar or buffing to get them out. Between the detail shop and the body shop they are going figure out what to do. I haven't tried anything myself. Looks like
I haven’t taken it over to the body shop yet. I’ve been enjoying it too much. I noticed on the roof it was much worse. I think everyone in the new car prep shop is too short and just hopes that nobody will pay attention to the roof.
Somewhat ironically, it's sitting in the parking lot of the GM Manufacturing facility since that's NS's rail depot for auto intermodal out here.
At least you know exactly where it is in the parking lot. If it’s there more than a week you may be eligible for a conjugal visit.My Ford Pass was accepted, so now I get to watch it sitting at the ramp 15 minutes from my house.
