I see them often ... Drove past one today and thought to myself, "damn that thing is ugly from the back".

I put an electrical circuit in the other day for a guy with one. Not my style but the guy seemed happy.

With 120v circuit it took nearly 24 hours to charge it, with the 240v circuit I run it still took 14ish hours to fully charge it..yikes.

It doesn't sound like they opted for a 60A circuit. A 60A circuit will safely accommodate a 48A charger which would be significantly faster than 14 hours.
 
Well I ran the 60A circuit but he only had the level 1 charger, from my understanding (and I'm no EV expert) don't you have to get the level 2 charger to get what is it 23 MPH on charge?

All he had was the level 1 though, if he buys a lvl 2 the circuit will handle it.
 
I charge my Tesla on a 60 amp circuit with a Tesla level 2 charger and it charges quick enough. Mines set to be fully charged by 6:00 AM so it adjusts the start time as needed. Not once have I gotten in the car and it not be fully charged when I charged it. I’m pretty sure the Mach E and most EV’s have a similar charging timer.

I’ve seen many Mach E’s around here. I keep seeing a grabber blue one so the owner must live close to me. I like the rear but think the front looks too heavy. Looking forward to seeing the Lightning around town but we’ve got a bit of a wait before that happens.
