look at fotomoto's math above for the first 50 miles, to keep the math easy I'll use his third example of 40 miles EV and 40 mpg thereafter...
Conservatively, I'd say to estimate one gallon a day. 500 feet over 40 miles isn't exactly what I would consider downhill, but you'll probably get...
I think this is the key point, the article makes it sound like it doesn't make sense to keep selling them because each unit is being sold at a...
Are they done the pre-orders then and just filling in normal inventory now?
I saw a silver one in Rock Hall, MD today.
and you think a lot of Sequoia drivers are just using them for fun on the weekends/
Thats great! I imagine your gas prices are significantly higher than ours too right? Must feel good.
Thanks. I know lots of people do way better than the numbers I got but I couldn't be more pleased. Driving on sunshine and loving every...
Still not a member of the 50+ club, but I did just set a new personal record with my first 2000+ mile tank (2003.6 miles of 8.4 gallons [what was...
I like the line quoted in the first post "or energize a portion of a downed grid". Sounds like a good first step to wider V2G technology. For...

I agree, I hope all plug ins sell well. By the end of 2013 some of the first Volts will be coming off the 3 year leases and I'm sure some...
Thats cool. If you'd told us all those times you were harping on sales you meant 2013 sales it might have cleared things up.
Are you predicting that PHV will sell more than the 15,000 units in US that Toyota said they are sending?
I liked this chart from the source article, showing more Volts sold in the US calendar year to date than all other plug in cars combined: June 2012...
Its the rising prices issue that attracts me to EV (one of the issues I suppose). When I put in my PV panels I now have a fixed finance cost...
Probably not in the majority, but I consider nuclear "green".
The EPA rrating for CS mode is a combined city/hwy figure, they don't break it down further into gas-city/gas-hwy/EV-city/EV-hwy. So, based...
EPA puts it at 37 mpg in what is known as CS mode (charge sustaining), it is the operational mode once the charge from the plug has been fully...
