    Which one's the better pick: VF8 or VF9?

    I’ve been in the same boat! Between the VF8 and VF9, it really comes down to what you're looking for. If you need more space and range, I’d lean toward the VF9, especially for longer trips. That extra room makes a difference, plus the extended range is a big perk. As for battery size, it’s worth...

    Optimizing VF8 Charging in Summer Heat!!

    It's curious that moving the car outside helped speed up charging. The overwhelming heat definitely messes with battery performance, especially during summer. I’ve noticed the same with my VF8, batteries really hate heat, and garages can get pretty toasty. One trick I’ve picked up is parking in...

    Vinfast’s VF8 – A total disaster!

    That VF8 situation sounds like a tech disaster! 😟 I can’t believe you went through all that in such a short time. It’s crazy that they haven’t figured out how to fix those bugs with lane assist and CarPlay, but four service trips? That’s way too much. Sounds like the EV6 is a huge improvement...

    Charging Stops Early - Any Fixes?

    uhhhh I haven’t experienced anything like that with mine yet. I’ve read about a few other people mentioning similar issues. 🤔 Have you tried using a different charging station? or outlet to see if it behaves the same way? Could be a problem with the charger itself? or maybe even the electrical...

    Buying vs. Leasing the VF8!

    Is it better to buy or lease the VF8? Well, it really depends on what you want and where you see yourself in the future, you know? Now, let me tell you why I opted to lease the VF8. Since Covid hit, money's been tight for me. I try to stick to my budget, and I don't think that makes me stingy...
