Ok - its been 4868 miles (lifetime average 572.23MPG) and I had to buy my 1st tank of gas! WOOT. Per suggestions by others on this board I only put like 3.5 gallons in - no point in carrying the extra weight.
Is there a way to have the Total Range display LOW? I found that very frustrating. I was in HOLD mode on the freeway
and knew I had 5 miles EV for when I got to the surface streets, but the LOW was making me nervous... was not 100%
I could make it to my usual (when I had a gas car) station. Sadly I could have made it home on the last 3 miles of EV
and plugged in and gone another few days before I would have to drive far enough to use gas... but again I was worried about the low and any issues with damaging the fuel pump if I totally ran out.
Also, before I filled up when I would come to a stop sign the total power usage meter would show 0.5 kW... as soon as
I added the gas and started it up it reads 2 kW ????
Loving the Volt!
