    6.8 miles driven after turtle

    Yup, understood, thanks. I just realized that with that cushion I should be able to approach 100 miles. I'll have to do that trip to my other friend's shore house. I think it is 93 and I have been avoiding it but now feel comfortable.

    6.8 miles driven after turtle

    I had an interesting day of driving the lectric car. Went to work in Philly, charged up for free in my paid parking spot. Came home, charged up some at home, took a friend to the airport, ran some other errands. Played it just right and had 2 bars left. Used one on some local stuff later...

    Care and Feeding of the OBC/dc-dc

    I've been trying to follow this thread but haven't kept up to it all, and much of it is over my head so I get tired of reading. I am mostly trying to understand the current theories for failures and if what can be done to hopefully avoid this issue. This is what I understand...and please...

    Any I Witnesses?

    I saw one this morning parked in front of my house in Media, PA. I got in it and drove it to work. It's really cool.

    Will not preheat when fully charged.

    PV1 - thanks, didn't remember seeing that as a programmable feature even tho I read thru the manual once waiting at the dealership. My manual (2017) has it on page 5-6. And although the programming works as stated in the manual, it seems like the behaviors are not in line with what is listed...

    Imiev tyres

    I love the Dunlop's. Roll great, good traction wet and dry. Expensive but worth it. I wouldn't buy anything else myself.

    Mitsu Stock USB or aftermarket stereo?

    Yea I'm really enjoying playing whatever is on the phone thru the stereo. Mostly I queue up Youtube stuff but if I'm using google maps its nice too. Sometimes youtube music. Also there are tons of internet radio apps. I downloaded a bunch of them but keep forgetting to use them. My favorite...

    Mitsu EVSE Ground Fault

    My Mitsu dealer replaced my stock EVSE under warranty. They said I still have the balance of my 5/60 warranty. I'm a happy guy. I only use it about once a year maybe - like this past year at a campground, but I didn't want to buy another EVSE and it's nice to have if I sell the car some day.

    Regen vs Neutral and speed for max range

    I think this is the best summary of this thread and I completely agree. Which is why basically I drive in D and use N when appropriate if I'm on a long drive and need to watch my miles. Unless I was in the city with a lot of stop and go, in which case I may use E or B. But even when I've...

    Regen vs Neutral and speed for max range

    If you are offended by some opinion that I offered, please let me know by private message. I don't know what you are talking about. I thought we all could have whatever opinion that we wanted as long as we were tactful. I don't remember being offensive or what you are talking about. About...

    Regen vs Neutral and speed for max range

    I don't think this is necessarily true depending on the hill and depending on whether braking is necessary. If it is a long hill and using N, I can go farther in N than by using any regen, because by using regen, I lose energy (about 50% or whatever). But by coasting, I go farther with that...

    Trouble finding new rear tires in British Columbia

    I like the Dunlops and think they are worth the money. I would buy them again and wouldn't consider anything else myself.

    Fuel tank for diesel heater

    I was thinking about that last winter - how much cool air hits the front of the car and there is no hot engine or exhaust manifold to heat it up. And how the legs and feet get so cold no matter what you have on. I wonder if there is room to insulate around that heater?

    How to install after market stereo in ES

    I have not worked on it lately - it looks fine in the car but it is loose - I'm planning on working on it this weekend and will post again. I may remove the top 3 connectors and just let it connect with the main ones at the radio. That may do it. Will let you know.
