I think the point was that a base Volt has a lot more features than a base Cruze. Regardless, now that the tax rebate is gone there’s no financial incentive to buy an EV.

Driving through the slush this morning was hard on the ole battery range!

I’m on a mission to get it under 3.00!! But it might take a couple years. Just rolled over 275k and I got 10.0kWh on the last charge. It’s a 2012.

Impressive. Since Victoria Day I’ve used about the same amount of fuel as you for 14,000km. Working out to 1.9L/100km in that time. I have brought the lifetime from 4.22 down to 3.72 in that time as well.

Tried this. Definitely made a difference. Used a little bit of fuel during preconditioning then 20km to work without ERDTT at -21C

Never really bothered me either. But it’s a little funny that you of all people would say that. Who’s bike almost rode itself into the timing trailer?

Finally got my home charger rebate in the mail today!! Free money!

No comment.

That’s normal on race weekends.

GB has a couple big dips at the apex in a few corners too. Taking the natural race line results in crashes.

-22C on my drive home and ERDTT was on for the first 11km.

I’ve thought about it but as much as i hate buying gas I’ll defer to the expertise of the designers. I’m going to leave it as is.

I also brought home a 350lb bathroom vanity from Lowes on the trailer. So far during the time I’ve owned it I’ve only asked a friend to use their truck once. Taking 1000lb of broken concrete (from my basement) to the dump.

That’s extremely inconvenient for me. I’ll stop at Costco tomorrow. 1800km on this tank, 26L used.

Im going to need to buy gas this week! Damn this cold weather!

Even ignoring development restrictions Mosport is like 25km from developed Bowmanville. It would take a looooooooonnnnnnggg time for development to move that far.

Would 15 minutes be sufficient?? Some OEMs are pouring billions into R&D. One of the common goals is to see an approx 80% charge in 15 mins. Even with current technology most two car households could easily switch to one of them being EV or PHEV with no requirement to change their driving...

Norway is pushing EVs heavily. The tax incentives are significant. However, norther Norway is sparsely populated with limited infrastructure. Some Tesla supercharges are being powered by diesel generators.

Atlis has a really neat subscription based system that includes charging costs. Their pricing info is a little vague but I like the truck. The front tailgate is a cool feature. Might be a viable replacement for my Volt someday.

According to my oil life monitor I’ll be due for an oil change after about 90,000km. However, the Volts internal maintenance minder will prompt an oil change after two years regardless of km.
