I have been getting around 50 miles on "normal" summer days with no AC. Yesterday, with the temps in the high 90's, and the AC blasting 72 deg air, I got 43 miles. Still a vast improvement over...
Welcome to the best car Chevrolet makes. I pay about 13 cents per kwH here in PPL's service area, we do have "smart meters", but the price difference for TOU does not make it worth it.
I have 11700...
I have a GE wattstation. The plug connector can be locked to the car, or the charger. Also, if you think you might relocate in the future, the wattstation can be unlocked from its mounting bracket...
I hope the hold mode will be offered as a retrofit. I drive 60 miles round trip to work, and in the winter I would rather use the ICE to heat and propel the car on cold mornings. In the afternoon its...
Looks like its a code for the evaporative emissions system (gas vapor) low flow. Could be a bad sensor or valve. Another cause is overfilling the gas tank. The fuel gets into the tank vent tubing and...
Closing in on 10000 miles on my Volt. No issues yet. With what I know today vs when I bought the car in October, I would buy one today if I needed another car.
I think if you look at the Husky Liners web site they have the cargo area mat listed as well.
I got mine last week. Good fit and finish. Bought directly from Husky Liners web site.
Slightly off topic, but there are companies who sell aftermarket seat heating systems. I am going to try to get install some in my car this summer. Of course it won't be as nice as the factory setup,...
Good idea, although 1500 watts is not much power for most US households.
Reminds me of a video that circulated here around Christmas, showing a delivery person (not UPS) throwing a television over a fence.
Are the Amperas limited to 100 mph? With the autobahn it should...
Sounds like you close the hood the same way I do it.
Sorry, but I can't help with the TOU questions. I have a 240 EVSE, but so far, TOU is not available for me in PA.
Good to see this happening. Pennsylvania has an incredibly long way to go, to catch up to some other states, when it comes to public charging stations.
Just looked at your pic. If your going to park the Volt where the car in the pic is, you may be able to secure something to that sturdy looking wooden post. Both the supplied EVSE and my wattstation...
Weather exposure is not an issue. My Volt is outdoors all the time. When I first got it, I used the supplied 120v EVSE to charge. I had the EVSE secured to a wood post where my outside 120 V outlet...
Great! I'll be ordering around the end of the month.
High speed driving, use of the heater, and cold temps put a big dent in the EV range. Yesterday it was 16 degrees here, and I got 23 EV miles. Several weeks ago we had a day with temps in the 50s,...
Hey there Tumblebug,
Telling folks the truth about the car is the best thing we can do. You are really doing your part. THANKS!
I have never been a fan of Mr Limbaugh. And after watching Fox's news...
It happens to me about 1 or 2 times a week on the way to work. I once had a 95 Ford Ranger that brighter low beam headlights then the Volt. I think the low beam pattern must be a tad different and it...
