This used to happen to VW Rabbit/Jetta in the 70's and 80's. :rolleyes: Good to hear you got it sorted on your own. Even if you get the windshield professionally resealed, it will still be cheaper than the stealership.

That's unfortunate. I hope they can hang in somehow. I used one of their DCFC recently and it was a very good experience.

If you don't have access to a lift, I'd get both front wheels off the ground with the car on jackstands at its specified lift-points (along the pinch welds where the emergency jack fits). Then you can easily rotate the axle, turn the steering wheel, etc. Never get under a car without a...

Did someone say a tire tax? Yes, I did, back on page one. The complications of all the other 8 pages of stuff make the tire tax look pretty straightforward. Weight is proportional Mileage is proportional Summer/Winter tires is self administrating: Use of one set prolongs life of the other...

Not really, drive behind a 1960 Thunderbird, or any newer ICE vehicle that has its cat removed. 🙊 I'm equally guilty.. my other car is a 1986 turbodiesel.

Don't go too far out of your way. I'll post a diy design in a few days that won't hit you in the face. I've been meaning to share it, but life, ya know.

Hi All, Member benworthy058 PM'd me with a lead on parts I was seeking. Fortunately, CashApp blocked the transaction twice. So, I looked into the seller. This same email, number and type of pm showed up on a boating/marine site: I am reporting the member to the moderators. Buyer...

That's cutting it awfully close. My work is also 50 miles away and yesterday's round-trip used 35kWh measured at the wall outlet. The temperature was about 60F, driving mostly 65mph. In cold weather, I'd expect to use 25% more. Driving 50-55 mph, I'd expect to use 25% less I'd do it if I...

IIRC, there is a recall for some Leaf rear cameras, but the replacement process is not established. https://mynissanleaf.com/threads/sony-rear-view-camera-recall-nhtsa-id-to-be-determined.35031/

Here's my 2020 this morning.

Agree with the above. Having the biggest battery means less concern. Drive faster, drive further, drive in any weather, if you feel like it. I still try to eek out the best efficiency on the daily drives, but if the weather is bad, I leave later than planned, or I need to make extra stops...

Maybe not... I do not baby my 2020, and I have less than 10% degradation.
