    I've got to say you were an inspiration for the crippled snail metaphor.(y) As far as EV mileage, it is all done w/o A/C as I am driving at 5:30 AM. :( Also the humidity is low here right now and I've only used A/C twice so far, even at 98°-100°. My time is coming withe the July and August humidity, but enjoying it while I can. Have to watch out for priuscatprimeguy | PriusChat he is coming up fast after his long trip. :eek:;):D

    PS: We are all worthy, Prime worthy!! (y)

    @priuscatprimeguy @priuscatprimeguy (y)(y) You, my friend, have come a long way after you trip. And, you sir, have a place of honor in the society, as long as @HPrimeAdvanced approves. ;)
    You and me both! We continue to strive. I'm just trying to reach the theoretical limit someone posted of 38 miles of pure EV. And apparently 40 is possible.

    Ah yes, but be wary of that heinous A/C, certain to thwart your noble and rare effort as Tortuous Summer slams us!!

    A/C is my weakness! I got to be cool. I have been achieving a constant 35 EV miles right now.

    With 95 degree heat, it is real hard to do. I am still not using gas though. Lol. It will be more challenging and more comfortable to try in the fall, winter, and spring!

    Trouble is laddy, the A/C will steal your medal for Most Miserly Consumer of Electrons!! It's been known to shockingly shrink the range (sounds Republican, don't it!!??) of your non-gaseous motor by as much as 2.5 miles (4 Kilometres for you Canadian Snails)!
    You would lose your crown to some sweaty cad!! Fie, fie, friend°

    I do, I have only used A/C twice, because my son was in the car and I couldn't do it to him. I've driven in 95°-100° w/o A/C, no problem, but with low humidity so far. :D
