Love road trips . Great photos of your adventure .
We often take day long road trips when we have some time on weekends.

Some times to initiate the heater mode you need to move the temperature setting into the red for 10 seconds and then move it back to the green neutral position to get the diesel action in motion. I don't have the pipes insulated and also tied into the tank return installing the one way flow valve . ...

I can run the heater 3 - 3 1/2 hours with my 2 liter tank of diesel ,
depending on the temperature.

Here's a link to a video a forum member (DonDakin) made on the remote operations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgIM7MIyxLQ This will help if the remote is the one programmed to your car. If it's not, you need to program them to operate together. There is a posting here some where on how to do that.

Thanks

Hi rkar189203,
What kind of mileage have racked up after 4 years and that route 66 trip? This 1,000 mile trip should be a walk in the park for you.
I'll be interested to hear your impressions in comparing the i Miev's performance of these 2 trips.
Keep us posted.
