2025 Lucid Air Pure — fast charging slows down earlier than it used to

I'd want competing paper, not competing stories. Keep sale price, trade, and financing split on the 2025 Lucid Air so a “good payment” cannot bury a worse deal. I'd rather lose the car than buy a foggy deal. Not gospel, but it saved me a headache. I'd rather be boring and correct. PPI guy I use is booked until next week, so I'm waiting.

Hard-won lesson from my last deal: A written buyer’s order on the 2025 Lucid Air is worth more than any verbal “we’ll make it work.” If they balk, that's your answer. On “fast charging slows down earlier than it,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. Wrote this up on my lunch break.
