Camp courtesy mode will take care of the lights. As for the delay, my iPhone has lots of FM apps in the store but they were just streaming the feed over the internet so would be delayed and not have the drive-in signal anyway. I don't think any iPhones have the built in FM chip enabled. Most...
I barely got clipped by a trash truck, could have been a bicycle for no more damage than was done. Over $5000. They replaced the whole rear side of the vehicle for an 8 inch scratch. I tried to find a body shop that would old school it but they declined because the truck's electronics might get...
Resets, software updates, and low battery warning all turn off the outlet timer. So on a long trip just pulling into a charging station below 50 miles of range will leave you without power to the fridge.
The default I think is that the auto mode is on but the timer goes off. My mini fridge...
Kansas City: I get $0.15 at home and it ranges from $0.42 to $0.60 at the DCFC chargers around me. So more than gas which is $3.29 right now. I use the shortcut of moving the decimal place so $3.29 gas is $0.329 electric. I know that is not quite right but it is close. I feel for you guys on the...
If you set the desired miles of range at destination high enough it will add automatically along the route. If it thinks you have plenty of range at the destination it will not add any. When you ask to add I think that is when it looks for the closest, but I have not done it that way.
Still cheaper than most the fast chargers. 13 MPG at $3 per gallon is 23 cents per mile. 2 Miles per kWh makes breakeven 46 cents per kWh at the fast charger. If a generator would charge while driving I would get one.
Wait, I just described the Scout.
Thanks for doing the work. I might go buy a generator now that I know what to expect. Then when my in-laws ask "What do you do when the power goes out?" I can answer "Go to the gas station, just like you." And then point out that gas stations are not any more reliable than the grid anyway, so...
RAN and much of the public charging has disconnected from gas prices. I think this is a mistake as most EV owners have an ICE option. The stations will never turn a profit when prices can be double or more gas prices.
Many potential EV buyers will stick with ICE if they can't road trip for a...
lowering the frontal height of the trailer will help a bit. Upping the tire pressure is an easy couple of percent. As so many have said, slowing down. Smaller wheels on the trailer will lower it a bit but has some drawbacks. Moving the AC unit off the top would help a bit. My Vee-nose enclosed...
You need to know that running in conserve all the time will wear out the front tires much faster. So much so that it can overtake the electricity savings.
