I bet we can benefit from those planning to trade in for new potential owners looking. Think we should have a thread for hooking up potential owners and current owners? Both would benefit financially.

How about a trailer hitch and Rav4EV connectivity mode? The hitch could load up with 4 packs of 70kwh of battery. Tony could potentially sell/rent the trailer as customer needs. Maybe Tony can design the connectivity for other cars, then these trailers can be sold/rent to larger customer...

Looking into doing solar (again). This time with the wife buying in into the idea. I am in San Jose, wondering what company might be the best price/service around. My house has a lot of vaulted ceiling, so it has many angles. Not a lot of straight roof space. Thinking about SunPower, but...

How about the 90D option? New battery chemistry? No one is exactly sure if it is only the 5kwh battery upgrade has the new battery chemistry or all 90kwh has it. But interesting thing is... is $13k more really worth the maybe extra 50 miles range?

Update. I got the Conti TrueContact 4 weeks and 1200 miles later..... It is actually getting maybe 2 miles more on the GOM reading after my wife's commute at the end of the day, compared to run down OEM tires. My wife claimed that the new tires make the car turn a lot easier, which I felt...

I am not going to plan to put a Prius tire into this good handing car with some fun factor potential. The new Conti DWS06 tires are tested by Magazine folks to have one of the better do anything All-Season. Just too bad it does not have the right size. And did not want to go to 18". Guess I...

Thinking of the new Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 that just came out today on Tirerack. The closest they have to our Rav size is 235/55/17. Any option of these new tires or size option?

Uh. If Toyota willing, I might swap a fully loaded Lexus NX300h awd. They might save some money with me. :D

Why not just insulate around the speakers first? I insulated my van a few years back, the result was night and day with the speakers getting more solid thump. I guess I am not too old for 12" woofer setup now, but I like the clean bass for just doing insulation.

I had a message on Wednesday night indicating my Rav finished charging. The only problem was, it was parked outside the garage, and not plugged in. :lol:

Even if you can't get $18k in the market... like Tony said. The fact that being a lease, you can charge 100% and go further without babying the battery. If it goes bad, bring back for a new one. If it loses a lot of range, you have to option to return and walk away... hopefully for something...

Anyone has great service/installing experience in the SF South Bay Area? I am thinking of installing one (to own) since this summer's EV-A peak rates are killing me.

Did I miss something? I thought we were talking about fix-a-flat kit.

Oh, you are in NY state. I don't want to ship it, if you were local (Silicon Valley), you could have pick it up for me. The kit can damage the sensor. Why even use it? Even Tesla's manual said to tow the car and only use the kit on Emergency only. I doubt this kit for Toyota is any different.

Or be an AAA member and call for a tow. I got Premium so that there would not be any issue if needed tow if car is broken down beyond 5 miles away from home. For the money, resulting in no stress. Anyone want to buy my Tesla/Rav tire kit? :D

Try these guys... http://www.prestigioussociety.com/?page_id=1167 I believe one of our members had installed it. I would not touch Coastal Tech as their customer support sucks. My local stereo shop guys used them for their bypass, and he knew of slow support issues. As for the above link...

You mean like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xf3qTYYl_gM

Anyone got their Samsung Galaxy S5 working? I know their website said they are working on it. So is this message of something like "needing active App needs to be running message", when pressing the APP button, means the phone is not supported?

Maybe he is trying to build the AWD Rav4eV he was talking about on another thread. 80 kWh battery with AWD..... :lol:

I have never seen this in 4 (different models and years) Toyota in my household. Everyone changes within a few minutes close to the outside temp.
