The before image is from September 2011. The collapse occured within seconds of the impact.

Well the bridge was probably built to accomodate "standard" sized vehicles. The truck required special...

I figured there must be at least a few Volt owners here affected by the bridge collapse on I-5.

It's amazing how fast the armchair engineers are out. "Oh, it's not the truck drivers fault, a...

There's talk of allowing EVs and hybrids in the HOV lanes here, but nothing official yet. When I trundle off to Vancouver I'm stuck in traffic for an extra hour with the rest of the peons.

The 5th position, essentially indicating Standard or Premium, is that basically cloth or leather seats? My Volt is fully loaded except for leather, and it's a "standard" unit (1G1RC)

I'd be very intrigued to see if that's possible... In theory you should be able to roam onto the Japanese network just like any other CDMA cellphone. The one snag might be if Onstar blocks...

It's not just you... If I change the quantity to 2 the total price is $1400

DC charging simply moves the charger from the car to the pedstal. The losses will still occur, only it's before the power gets to the car.

Also, I'm guessing that the kWh you're billed for will...

I was not aware...

All Volts have a button for such a situation. It's in the overhead console near the Onstar buttons. Press it to turn Traction Control on and off. Press and hold to turn Electronic Stability...

You do know how little of those additives they are required to add in order to claim their brand is better? All the various chains of gas stations get their supply from only a handfull of...

There are losses involved in the charging process. I was playing around with my Torque app while charging a few days ago and I remember the volts and amps going in and out of the charger. The...

Something is going on, but I haven't figured out what. It doesn't look like MGA is ever being engaged, nor the ICE...

I'm getting 403 (Forbidden) errors. Wanted to see if there were any updates to the CSV since March 9th.

Most every vehicle gets their base maps from Navteq.

You can make corrections here: http://mapreporter.navteq.com/

Of course, it can take 6-12 months for them to make a correction that you...

$45 worth of premium in my Volt every week beats $120 worth of regular in my truck every 3 days (yes that's what I was spending...)

I buy all my gas at Esso (Exxon) and I get triple points on...

Not entirely bad, as it's much more difficult to repurpose into nuclear weapons.

The 2013 L1 EVSE is made by Clipper Creek, and the PCB is identical to the one inside of an LCS-25. The only difference between the L1 and the L2 is the coil voltage of the contactor and the wiring...

This is the nicest one I've seen here in BC (Capilano Mall in North Vancouver) The sign on the back wall and the stencil on each parking stall is the standard one, everything else is optional
...

Just yesterday I was playing around with my Torque app and the special Volt PIDs while I was charging. I was plugged into a true 240V circuit (as opposed to a 208V circuit from a commercial service)...

All the signs and markings here in BC are supposed to be standardized. They provide all the templates for free.
