    Trip to LA, 265 miles down, 175 miles back

    Well, I am in line for the Tesla M3 and will be making the same trip, so yes, there will be a comparison. One thing for sure, if it takes driving 50MPH to LA to save "range" that a non-starter. With charge time, the trip to LA is already slow enough.

    How Do You Turn Off the Radio?

    I push the power button in the middle of the volume knob. Sorry, was that too simple?

    Trip to LA, 265 miles down, 175 miles back

    Ok, I don't really understand this one. My estimated range from driving around the city went to 265 miles. We got to LA after leaving fully charged with one charging stop, that I spent time on to get a full charge (DCFC). On the way back we charged 3 times while on the road. After full charge...

    Ah, er, can someone verify this actually works? I don't need more arrows in my back.

    ground clearance on Bolt EV

    I have already scraped curbs in front. It is low. A lot of cars have this issue.

    Access my bolt status via web?

    Hi, I work in a building that blocks cell service (its metal, this is common). I would like to see the charging status from my desktop. Right now, I have to walk to a window, re-enable the stupid Verizon idiot cell phone, and check the status. Thanks! Scott Franco San Jose, CA

    EVgo DC chargers were horrible up until the beginning of 2018. They're still not perfect, but improvement is being made.

    I complain about the 30 minute EVgo limit often, on the phone to the operators. I have to. Their f%^&ing stupid rfid card still does not work after I have replaced it 3 times, so I have to call them to start the charge.

    The seats are a deal killer.

    Have you... ah... checked for loose silverware in your car seats? I'm just not seeing this.

    Self-sealing tires vs spare tire options

    Because AAA has rules about how far they will tow you.

    Please stop the orange!

    Please, please cannot we stop the metalic orange? Please? It is giving me nightmares. I cannot believe anyone sane actually ordered that color. Just STOP stop stop.

    My bitch list for the Bolt

    That's no joke. I am a pilot, and having lights on in the cockpit that won't turn off is dangerous if you are trying to pick out mountains in the dark. I once had an argument with the maker of one of the instruments in my airplane that does this, really getting angry with them. I hooked the...

    Heater = 9kW

    Yep, having a metal ribbon heat from abient temperature to several hundred degrees and back regularly fatigues the metal quite rapidly.

    Heater = 9kW

    Resistance heating is the least efficient heating possible. Its why those cheap Home Depot heaters really wreck your power bill if you use them all winter. For whats its worth, I had a leaf, and that heater (heat pump) was finicky as hell, it seemed to work for a while then make up its own mind...

    Problems, Bugs, Weird Stuff, Glitches, Concerns Here

    I knew there would be some issues since I got one of the first 100 or so cars to be made. I'm not worried about it, and the car is a good car. But there is always that issue of calling up the maker of anything technical made today and you get that standard bullsh*t answer about "well, bring it...

    Problems, Bugs, Weird Stuff, Glitches, Concerns Here

    Same thing. Touch screen comes up totally black at times. No radio either. Seems to self correct after about 5-10 minutes. I am hitting the power button several times during that, it may affect it. Appears to be a bug.

    Can't add False Floor later?

    I have same issue, but on the fence as to if it is worth it. One idea: just measure the space, get them to saw up a piece of plywood that fits over that space in the floor. Add a couple of wood feet, then cover the top with a rug that vaguely matches. Voila! False floor. Not as nifty, but a...

    Can't add False Floor later?

    off topic but: I went into the Home Depot parking lot during december, it was raining cats and dogs, and they were sawing up xmas trees with an electric chainsaw. The extension cord they were using ran from the store across the driveway, submerged in about 2 inches of water and unprotected from...
