Bear Mountain should be really fun if you don't get stuck behind a slow car.
LOL! That would make a good signature line.This is what I've really learned from having a Roadster: You're always behind a slow car.
I agree. I think many Volt users will discover after a few years how little gas they actually use and will get used to the idea of plugging in and living with a pure EV. Especially when more mainstream EVs start having 200+ mile range 4-5 years from now (just a guess).
On Sunday I drove up to Santa Monica (with some stop overs), I charged up at a mall in Santa Monica but it only provided 11 miles of juice from Orange County. I ended up with 9 miles in range mode to spare. I almost crapped my pants hoping I would get home without running out of juice. Having an ICE motor to get you where you need to go is a pretty good insurance policy sometimes.

...might be a good insurance policy but the premium (extra cost / pollutin' ICE / extra maintenance / et al) is way too high imo...
Better planning is a far more effective...no insurance policy required.
There is always the LA store. You pretty much have to pass it to do that trip. If they are open, a 70 bump goes a long way for an OC trip. I did the same one with 3 miles to spare. Now I always have the Tesla stop in my back pocket.
And yes, they should have a charger outside for 24/7 access like the Newport store.
Might be true but sometimes its impossible to plan your trip when its spur of the moment....Having an extra ICE is far less polluting than having to be flat bedded home.
First time I've heard the "try the dealership down the road" line. PM me for a solution.Funny you mention the LA store, I pulled up to the LA store and the lady told me they were in the process of closing up for the day so I could not charge there,...
Hey, just want to wake up this thread. Are we still on for Sunday September 18th? I'm looking to make a weekend of it.
** moved the thread to Events.
And maybe Tesla will send a along a demo car or an S!
