Yea, Murphys to Bear Valley. But sadly it's looking like snowfall on Friday the 7th and we'll postpone if that's the case.

Yea, EVGo. My one and only experience was standing in the rain, holding an umbrella a phone to EVGo and the charge cord. EVGo got it going after taking $9.95 from my credit card. Added 75 miles. Gas would have been cheaper and faster. We mostly use various free Level 2 chargers around Marin...

Ah, cellphone... Verizon. But I got some advice from the folks at the San Francisco Electric Vehicle Asso. https://lusciousgarage.com/blog/san_francisco_electric_vehicle_association_meeting/ They suggested that we print Plugshare info just in case we don't have cell coverage. Those guys know...

Thanks for the advice on the cold weather impact. I'll do some research and add that impact to the estimates. It looks like we might climb into 40 to 45 degree temperatures.

I adjusted my plan with 2 changes: - 3.5 miles per kWh - 1.5kWh per 1,000 feet of climbing plus .75kWh per 1,000 of descending and reclimbing So now: Sausalito to Tracy - Doesn't matter because I'm going to fully recharge in Tracy. Tracy to Murphys - 79 miles plus 3,000 feet effective...

Got mine in January. Currently at 2,366 miles.

Super helpful guys. So... When I get to Tracy (having checked the charger's status) I'll top off to 235 miles. That should take under an hour even if my taper rate is down to 12kWh. Any good lunch places in Tracy? Murphys is only 80 miles and 1,400 feet of climbing so I should still have at...

We're going to drive our Bolt EV from our house in Sausalito to Bear Valley (probably via Tracy). 200 miles, 1 day, 7,000 feet of climbing. So, can we make it? Anyone with far more knowledge than us care to help or check my thinking? Am I to optimistic somewhere? My plan: (conservative...

I have an Ice Silver Bolt, man I love this car, but the gold Chevy bow-tie emblems don't go with the silver & black colors. Here is a super easy improvement to overlay the gold portion with shiny silver. Get some HVAC Aluminum Foil Insulation Tape at, say, Home Depot. It's shiny sliver and...

If your RKE fob dies... 1 - Remove the physical key. Put the key in the hole in the bottom of the driver-door handle and lever off that cover. Open the door using the key in the now exposed manual door lock. 2 - Open the armrest. remove the upper pocket. 3 - Place the RKE fob, buttons facing...

I'm pretty sure you'll be OK if it is an electric boat.

Sometimes Android Auto looses its connection or doesn't come up immediately. I've had the best results when I connect the USB (to my HTC M9) before I start the car. Any suggestions?

It's a little hard to refocus your eyes on. I've been driving the car a week now. You have to refocus closely onto the mirror itself. Switching back and forth from looking way forward to looking in the camera mirror takes a moment longer that simply looking at a reflection of the rear view.
