    With the ev mod going out, and the wife saying I &%$#@d it up , and my thinking It showed 7 blue bars
    Then reading about Nates battery issues. I got caught up in it.
    Seems as everything is fine and no need to take to the dealer.

    So thanks to everyone that replied to my other post.

    the paranoia is gone ( thank god)

    ( one note, Don't tell the wife you have taken apart the dash of your new car !!!)

    I don't know, Craig, I think that SOC looks a little on the low side... ;)

    Craig it's OK, it just the residual effects of the cheese curds kicking in, you'll be OK in a month when they're finally through your system :lol: .

    :D :angry: :D :rolleyes:

    figure that one out :)

    I know those darn cheese curds.

    If we can get the dog in a kennel again, just might be up to see you Wayne.

    Then up to WI. for more curds if the battery paranoia was from the curds , I want more...I will bring you some good sweet corn home grown( from neighbors garden)

    I know they won't see this because they have Big AMERICAN made trucks and I hear about it all the time.
    I like to follow them to the gas station and honk and wave.

    it's a neighborly thing :lol:

    Will be down Evans way tomorrow if we have enough time. Lake Ozarks then to Bull Shoals :D
    I'll drop off the wife and keep the dog with me. :blink:

    Again Thanks and sorry for the paranoia...Evan ,I need more xanax :D

    I'm with you, Craig. When Wayne installed my EV switch, it took several hours longer than expected due to unforeseen difficulties. This means that I returned home much later than expected. Explanation to the spouse: "we see each other only a few times per year; of course we're going to sit around and talk and lose track of the time."

    She's never seen the pictures of my dismantled dash and I pray she never does.

    At least the EBH does not require dismantlement. Though if Wayne does mine I can never be sure. :D
