Tax credit is federal, not state. It’s applied to the sale price, not at tax filing time. I bought via keysavvy in April. extremely smooth process. Had temp tags within an hour or so

Is it known whether a 2018+ motor is a bolt-in replacement, or are there plug differences or coding changes needed? are the motors the same between REX and BEV just with different mounts or does the application need to match?

It is, but in a car with efi it’ll absolutely still have the sensors, and I’m sure the emissions control equipment too.

Leaded fuel will hurt catalytic converters and oxygen sensors, so I wouldn’t suggest that for the rex engine…

I watched coolant and oil temps and saw no issues running it for 4 hours (with extra fuel) at 75 mph. Charge holds with Rex at 4500-5100rpm. Only two trip like that so far, 2 more to com 4th of July weeekend.

Seems an unquestionably safe assumption that anyone considering this is using an OE, DOT certified tank from... something, whose dimensions are just perfect for the available space.

I was planning to look at how the evap ties in, and whether some lines could be rerouted to make a highest-point loop that's as high as possible under the cowl to reduce opportunity for liquid to enter. I used to have a large transfer tank on a pickup that was tied into the filler neck. No evap...

Source for the article? I just brought home a 2015 today and I’m already regretting the limited range after running around a bit, because I immediately fell in love with the car… I want to take it everywhere. I was thinking about how to tie into a pressurized fuel system and it seemed...
