    Drove the Rav to Truckee Taboe this weekend

    So I decided to see if I could get to Truckee in the Rav4. I can report that I left with an extended charge and stopped in Sacramento for lunch and a movie. Sacramento garages have a bunch of clippercreeks, including a 50 amp unit on the top of the garage I was in. I averaged 3.5mi/kwh from...

    My Rav4 stalled out on me.

    After work today I jumped in the Rav, put her in drive, hit sport mode, and stepped on the pedal. The car moved about three feet forward and stopped abruptly. I initially thought I was relearning how to drive a manual transmission and then came back to reality and remembered this was an EV. I...

    Scheduled charging with upgraded evse

    So I had my included evse upgraded so I don't use the Blink anymore. I'm still waiting on my Clipper Creek charge station. I found that when the Rav4 says it will begin charging its lying. I began last night by plugging in the evse to determine the charge start time and then adjusted the...

    What's your true MPGe

    I was wondering how the EPA came up with the MPG number. I found that the EPA considers 33.7KWh to be equal to 1 gallon of gasoline. My average consumption is 3.5 miles per kwh. I'm getting about 118 MPGe. The window stickers on our Rav4s is 76 MPGe. What are you getting?

    Anyone using schedule to charge their Rav with a Blink?

    When using the Rav4's scheduler and a Blink charger I've had a couple of nights not charge. I was wondering if anyone else might have some insight on this. I also had the schedule on the blink and the Rav4 set to charge immediately which also did not charge. I've never had either of these issues...

    I called most of the dealers in the bay and only walnut creek and milpitas would negotiate on the price.
