The speakers really aren't bad, my analyzer shows the tweeters going out to 20 KHz no problem (yes, I realize a 1/3 octave frequency response measurement doesn't tell the whole story).

The real...

haha, clueless, you've got some reading to do http://physics.ucsd.edu/do-the-math/2011/11/peak-oil-perspective/

Gasoline demand is *DOWN* in the US, and production is *UP*, and prices are still...

Are they going to do anything to reserve these spots? Last year they didn't and several of us gave up even attempting to use the chargers.

You deride people for loving their car and you're commenting on a forum for people who love their car? You see the irony, no?

They're sending parts now, hopefully fixed next week.

You're in Arlington with a 7kW solar system? Very cool. I have a townhouse in Sterling, HOA bans solar :(
We need a federal law to invalidate...

Mine has been dead for 2 weeks. They sent an electrician to service it about a week ago - after I already told them the screen is blank and it won't charge the car. He had no parts of course. A week...

Kill-A-Watt is a great device. I found an LCD monitor that was plugged in that I wasn't even using was burning 18 watts all day long for about 3 years! After switching from desktop computers to...

You'd need some tools, the sub is under the cargo floor. Its a plastic box about the size of a 12V battery that has some flanges molded into it that attach to embedded bolts in the floor. The Bose...

I am a fan of uncompressed music, and I listen to CD's often - I wish you could copy lossless audio to the internal hard drive.

When it comes to upgrading the Volt, its because of seriously bad...

Unfortunately I don't know anything about the stock stereo, I've never even heard one, but replacing factory speakers is always going to be an upgrade :) I didn't replace the Bose speakers, mainly...

Tesla is claiming 0.24 for the Model S, which I also find suspiciously low.

Personally, I'd like to see an option to ditch the passenger side mirror and add wheel skirts. :)

Not gonna happen, I've been driving around with my upgraded stereo (900 watt potential) for months, no change in range.

I live in Sterling, VA and work in Reston. I'd be happy to meet up with you sometime and compare cars.

Wow, those rates seem high compared to my TOU plan in VA. My rates vary a lot, but the lowest is winter time 1am-5am at $0.05 / kWh, my worst is summer time 1pm-7pm at $0.16 / kWh.

Congrats. I bought my Volt at Pohanka Chantilly also, about 10 months ago. I just wish I had power at home to charge my car right now :) Stupid thunderstorm

I've had this happen once when slowing down, going downhill, and the right front tire went over a manhole cover. My theory is that when you're slowing down normally (not a panic stop), the regen is...

Watch out, the increased aerodynamic drag may cost you 0.0001 miles of range LOL

With a white car, you might as well go for a Demolition Man police car look :)

Yeah, the Volt prototype had it, that was back when GM was putting the logo on everything. I liked it, so I ordered a pair of emblems from a dealer and put them on myself :)
