Just wondering--on this 8th day of no power here in the Upstate of SC (thanks Helene!)--what the potential for using the i3 along with a 12v inverter would be. If the vehicle is fully charged, and I am using my 3000w inverter, it might be a viable emergency option for the fridge. I can charge at...

1) Tire monitor ... the rest are Sirius Radio station presets: 2) Classical 3) Bob Marley Radio 4) 40s 5) 50s 6) 60s 7) 70s 8) Real Jazz I figured I would gradually replace the stations with some necessary one-touch control launch screens over time ... but it's been almost 4 months and nothing...

I have a Schumacher 2500A portable booster pack that I keep in the i3 (left over from my old MB 300TD years). I figure I can help myself out of a potential jam like this, and also I like to be able to help stranded ICE folks that need a jump still ... It's a good investment.

I account for this and comment on readings I've had on flat stretches only.

For a tire to be worn enough to make a deviation of even a single MPH seems pretty extreme, as in: from brand new to legal remaining tread depth. As someone who has never been handed a single speeding ticket in over 40 years of driving, I'd be happy to have it read as accurately as possible...

I've noticed that my speedometer is reading 2mph over, when measured against GPS and limit sign radar displays. Reads 35 at 33, 55 at 53, etc. Not a big deal, but a little niggly thing that reminds me of a pet peave regarding people setting clocks ahead to the incorrect time so they won't be...

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

I just realized a typo in the post above. I meant to put 6.4m/kWh ... not 5.4 Over the past 200+ miles it's hovering just above 6 ...

Thanks for all the intel, but I have a hard time believing that the Poledancer is getting better per mile effienceny that an i3. Since I returned from my 3,000 mile slow-mo romp around the Eastern Seaboard I've been trying to see how high I can get my average. As an experiment, I've been...

Any NC/SC i3 owners interrested in trying to get a fall meetup to happen? Maybe at Carowinds as: a) its actually on the SC/NC border b) plenty of parking spots c) proximity to chargers, and d) several food & beverage options in the immediate area (including a few breweries) Great excuse for a...

Pre-finish on the left, after 10 years of South Carolina sun bleaching, and a light sanding. Post-finish on the right, after 4 coats of Howard’s Feed & Wax Polish. It looks far better with the leather of my Lodge/Giga interior.

I personally appreciate the balance of the natural materials (wood, leather, wool) with the high-tech of the carbon-fiber, LED, and voice activation. Yin-yang.

Congrats! I went with Howard's Feed & Wax Polish when I refinished my eucalytus wood. I used it many times over the years on everything from countertops to musical instruments. It does darken wood somewhat, but I wanted that effect so that the trim would be more harmonious with the leather...

I've decided that from now on, when someone asks the inevitable first question of, "What kind of range does it get?" I'm going to answer, "About 700 miles, give or take." When they scoff or spit-take, I'll retort, " Oh! You mean per CHARGE? I thought you meant per day of driving and charging...

Looks great! Congrats! I enjoyed a River Road run down to Boothbay myself in my i3 just a couple weeks ago ...

I sent you a message ...

I *just* drove from here in SC, right through DC, up to Rockland Maine in my '14 BEV this month! Where are you at in the mid-coast?

This is literally everything I am wanting to get from the car ... I wonder if there is a dongle connection that can feed the data in some format? The whole 3G thing really does seem to be the burr in the wool with these cars.

Seems that Rita and I are getting to know each other and settling in quite well. After a month of ownership, increasing the tire pressure (r=47, f=40), learning the ins & outs of regen braking and throttle control, and refraining from running AC all the time I clocked 77 miles on this last...

Essentially, trying to emulate camp mode with my dog on an upcoming long road trip.
