When the Mach-E came out, they were literally everywhere around here in the D.C. suburbs, but very quickly disappeared. I think people unloaded them just about as quickly as they bought them. Yeah, Ford reliability issues, recalls, software issues, and the complete lack of reliable public fast charging other than for Tesla's would be huge downsides.
So how do you both like the RAV4 Prime, and how long have you had it for? I have a colleague that's considering one. From what I've read, I've heard it makes the numbers but really isn't that good to drive as far as steering, handling, braking, etc. Kinda par for the course for the RAV4 though. I have a 2007 RAV4 V6 (my older car, bought back from folks, kids learning to drive on it) that's the same DNA. Good numbers but pretty awful driving demeanor.
