    Ioniq 5 road trip impressions

    I bought one for my wife to replace her Explorer ST and we love it. The ride is excellent. It's doesn't perform like a Tesla, and IMHO the battery is too small for the platform... but I would say it offers far better value than a Tesla of comparable price.

    Plaid X Vibration at beginning of each drive: Who is experiencing this?

    I'm not sure in what year the heat pump changed. I have a 21 MSP and a 23 MXP. The "first 5 minutes" vibration does only happen on my 23 MXP. Both cars have the "lets f'in go" vibration. I believe, and pretty sure it's established, that they are 2 separate items. I'm still on team...

    Plaid X Vibration at beginning of each drive: Who is experiencing this?

    In documentation (service manual?), for the heat pump system, there is information of running something in a "lossy manner" to generate heat. Is there any chance this is done on a PLAID during the first part of the run cycle to generate more heat so the motors and/or battery are also heated...

    2023 Porsche Taycan 4S review

    I have had an RSQ8 and an AMG GLE 63 S, and have sniffed the Cayenne for years... They're too expensive. The Plaid at release was way too expensive.

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    While my X was being tinted, I drove my S and I love that car so much have decided to keep it and not sell it. But it also reminded me that the X has yet to deliver those smiles and more questions as to why.

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    There isn't a whole lot of "seat of the pants" difference between 0.5s. As I've used the term "perception" several times, I am keenly aware of what it should do vs. what it seems to be doing. I just wish I had the time to go to a track or a nice stretch of road and a timer to put numbers on it...

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    I have a heavily modfied 960hp Hellcat, a '21 MSP and now the '23 MXP... I have had an RSQ8, AMG GLE 63 S, and on and on and on.... I can say with 100% certainty that the MXP does not perform like the MSP even weight taken into consideration. I do believe that there are 2 factors involved in...

    Is the glass distortion still a problem for ‘24 model

    My 2023 Model X has 2 dips in the glass, right about where a normal car would have a roof line. It's not in the sight-lines, but is really noticeable after I put on on Exoshield.

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    Yeah, tires would only be responsible if they were slipping on pavement, slipping on the rims, or litterally sidewals flexing to the point of failure. Is there a graph that anybody has done that shows a relative SOC vs power output curve?

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    My 21 S has stock wheels w/ winter tires and I also have Rohanas with Michelins... all stock size 21". My 23 X has stock 20" w/ stock Continental Crosscontact In my case, I feel like I would be overjoyed with those numbers in my X. I'm thinking I'd be lucky to get into 10s with performance...

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    I found it and disabled. I will need to A/B test this to see if it was what was messing things up. Thanks!
