    Yup. I was quite delighted to see that when I first approached my base PiP after a long day at The office. I was half expecting the car to unplug the EVSE for me, wind up the cord, open the doors, and buckle my safety belts. Alas, all I got were the dome lights still, I felt welcomed.

    Does the door need to be locked? I haven't noticed this and we don't need to lock our cars in Wisconsin.

    Sounds like a slur on NY cops. I did not say I leave the fob in the car. Oh wait, in NY car thieves are blocked by windows.

    Yes it is......I love it when the puddle lights slowly dim on just like the interior lights. Even cooler when the are all LEDs & match
