  1. Tim says fully loaded Fathom well below mid 30's

    On a related tangent, in Detroit's home of Southeast Michigan, hundreds of thousands of customers are currently experiencing storm-related multi-day power outages. DTE Energy currently reports 267,929 Power Interrupted customers, and only 88.26% With Power. That's after already restoring...

  2. Tim says fully loaded Fathom well below mid 30's

    Given this: https://www.fromtheroad.ford.com/us/en/articles/2026/ford-electric-vehicle-platform-battery-efficiency The implication is that they would've assessed the trade-offs of 400V vs 800V in terms of total cost (e.g. reducing weight with 800V comes at a cost but allows reducing battery...

  4. Serramonte Ford Colma, CA Fathom Plan

    No. AXZD-Plan PINs are needed when you actually go to buy the vehicle, not order it. Meaning the vehicle is ordered by the dealer from the factory, built, delivered to the dealer, and you're signing the paperwork to buy it. You can wait until it has been built to generate a PIN. PINs do...

  5. 2027 Ford electric truck replaces 12V with 48V zonal architecture

    My Escape's factory 12V battery died multiple times on me before replacement, on occasion presumably overnight or longer. What settings did I have to restore? The IPC returned to its default settings, so I had to change the selected screens (re-enable both Trip computers, EV coach, etc.)...

  6. Something Important, Say No to Door handles.

    Unlike Tesla, Ford (being based in Michigan) did at least think that whole winter part through a bit. E-Latch has a motorized door pusher to pop the doors open. Unless iced over to an extreme extent, the doors should still open when parked outside in wintery conditions. Which seems...

  8. Tim: You will be surprised (in a good way) how cheap it will be for the ER battery

    $4,750-$5,250 for ~60 miles, 15 kWh usable. Note that Select requires eAWD to unlock ER. Premium can be optioned with RWD ER. Premium: Select:

  9. X-Plan pricing for Fathom

    For the definition of loyal that involves being a shareholder, Ford used to offer X-Plan to those holding 100+ shares of F for 6+ months. That ended back in 2022. As @eStang notes, you can buy X-Plan access through MCA. Note that you must be a digital or standard (not associate) member of MCA...

  11. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Yes, please. Did someone say Sandstone Active-X?

  12. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Ford tried dropping AM radio from its EVs. They caved and restored it once enough people complained. https://apnews.com/article/am-radio-ford-cars-congress-bill-aec6e6405d33ff95cff3dd31bef617db

  13. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Cannot forget an instrument panel in front of the driver, with at least the same info as MME. 🤞 Also a cooled, shaded Qi charging pad to prevent device overheating.

  14. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Feature request: launch alongside a UEV platform-mate, E-scape. Reasonable up-charges for extended range AWD (300+ mi rated range), panoramic vista roof, heated (and cooled??) power Active-X if not leather seats. @rileyfromford ;) Otherwise I may be able to fathom picking up a Fathom...
