Out of town for a couple weeks. Told the wife we could take Zippy to the airport since I’d read they only lose 1% per day. So far I unlock and lock the car to get an update on the battery but it still says 87% 150 miles. Is the car battery really not updating or since the car is only 6 months...

I did a quick search and didn’t see any comments about Musk announcing all US Superchargers will be available to non-Tesla vehicles by the end of this year. Is that because y’all think it’s BS and not worth starting a thread or what?

Was public charging but percentage wasn’t going up very fast. I got out of the car and noticed the 150kWh Electrify America charger had dropped to the low 20’s kWh from starting mid 30’s and I was only around 20% charged. A few minutes later it dropped to 7kWh. I shut it down and restarted…same...

I honestly had no clue what keyword to use searching for this ;) So the wife runs in the store, it’s still pretty warm outside so I sat there in “park” with the A/C on. And I waited… Battery drain was just a percent or two. I felt so guilty and wondered if that damages the car? Watched those...

Took my shiny new BEV to the closest Level 3 ChargePoint for my first charge…at a Harley dealership no less. Machine kept saying “waiting for vehicle” :oops: Over and over. BMW is a few miles down the road so I went there. “Genius” employee walks me over and I say WTF use is a level 2 charger...

I was searching around for the best EV navigation app and discovered that Apple Maps not only can route you but do so based on chargers that only work with our cars, factor in terrain, current battery charge and weather. How cool is that? Has anyone used it? I tried to at the dealership when we...

OMG…the trails and tribulations finding one of these things over the past 6 weeks. Sincere thanks to all. I think it worked out for the best in the end. One of the last new i3’s in Giga with Tech package in the northeast. Wasn’t everything we wanted but no complaints. I read so many posts and...

I don’t know how many of you are in the market or follow the market but I’ve lost more than half a dozen to salesman saying sorry…there’s already a deposit or car has thousands in maintenance. Have any of you found i3 to be scarce these days. Yes I know they stopped US deliveries. It’s almost as...

The search continues and I’ve found an ‘18 CPO with one owner BUT no CarPlay. Was dealing with a very nice saleswoman and this AM I got one of those NYC attitude guys who was asked to call. Heck he could be stealing the sale for all I know. Anyway, I’m sitting here looking at the VIN printout...

Is BMW pretty good about honoring warranty work if it’s not the original owner? Very low mileage ‘18 REX with all the options but moonroof at a Toyota lot. I just wanted to make sure if a deal can be worked out, I’m not gonna take it to a BMW dealer, have them check it out top to bottom, front...

Found a ‘16 REX last Tuesday, right here in my backyard at a big dealer with 5 franchises. After the demo, the sales guy said it had to go back to detail and inspection. I said fine, I’d take it but don’t jerk me around on the fluff or I’ll walk…guaranteed. The only other requirement was a...
