    Great Deal on Winter Tires

    We bought the 20" i3 with Rex. I priced the Tire Rack Black winter wheel setup with TPS. Went to one of my local FireStone stores. Not only did they match the $1,650 Tire Rack 19" wheel setup but because I went through them they mounted the wheels for free. Included in the deal is lifetime free...

    Pre-conditioning Value vs Cost

    So I decided to start pre-conditioning my wife Rex this morning for the first time. We have solor panels on our roof so we don't pay a dime for electricity. This is our second electric car (First Ford Focus EV) so we know the panels will produce enough energy to supply both the house and car...

    Rial 19" Rims with Winter Tires.

    I wish I had done my homework before I bough the 20" i3. I expected there would be 20" winter tires available for them. Anyway, I decided to go with the 19" Rial rim set with Bridgestone tires from Tire Rack. I assume by law I have no choice but to order the tire pressure monitor setup...

    Not enough power from grid???

    So just turned in our Ford Focus EV 6.6KWH for a new i3REx. Brought it home plugged it into my trusty Leviton 32 http://www.homecontrols.com/homecontrols/products/pdfs/LV-Leviton/LVEVB32xML_User_Guide.pdf and I get an instant fault. Car reports not enough power from Grid. Never had a problem...
