OHM-RIDE was an executive lease and spent the first two years of it's life running around Washington DC on gas
(Boooooo).

Since I've had it there has been a steady climb in EV use with little dribs and drabs of gas use on my commute along with a few long trips.

Finally, I've made the crossover to having more EV miles than Gasoline miles.

WHEEEE!

Seriously, I didn't think that was preying on my mind all that much so I was surprised at how good it felt to see that happen. I celebrated with a couple of dunkin donuts (LOL)

The reality that few admit is that it's kind of fun to have a car with both worlds ELECTRIC & ICE,,,I suspect when we will have PURE ELECTRIC, somehow we will miss the oil change evry 2 yrs, the unexpected "maintenance ICE" visits...really we are having 2 cars in one, even a house generator when the last hurricaine hit Savannah GA !!!.

I had been hovering at 50% until recently when I found a free charger 2 blocks from my office. I still park closer during bad weather or when it's blasted hot, but on nice days, I'll park at the charging station in the morning, and take a mid-day walk to move the car when it's fully charged so someone else can top off.

Electric Miles: 46,123
Gas Miles: 35,225
Total Miles: 81,348
Percentage on Electric: 57%

Hooray! More gas!

Hahahaha

Similar situation. My 2014 had a 2-1 gas to electric miles when I bought it. I drive 90% EV but there's a lot of inertia to overcome. Might take another year to 18 months to reach parity.

I think that for a owner of a Volt who uses the vehicle for both commuting and overall driving, the design leads to 50% electric and 50% gasoline use. On my 4,000-mile vacation last summer, I found no charging stations. On my 4,000-mile vacation this summer, I paid about $10 three nights for campground sites with access to charging electricity. Paying $10 per night for $1 of electricity is irrational. My vehicle statistics have dropped from 180 MPG to 72 MPG. The lack of infrastructure and the travel delays for charging a battery pack is not going to replace gasoline for a long, long, long time ~ if ever.

Congrats, but if you think you had it bad, consider this poor guy

I guess starting at 33% EV wasn't so bad for me.
