    Decreasing Mile Range

    Decreasing Mile Range

    Ok but that still doesn't answer why the charge miles will only charge up to 21.5 when this summer it peaked at 30. Fluid viscosity doesn't speak...

    Any one else getting more than 30 per charge?

    Any one else getting more than 30 per charge?

    My wife refuses to ride in my 2006 which she claims has a terrible odor that I can't smell. I drive 70 miles a day to/from work and guess my...

    299,999+ Mile Club

    And I've been concerned about the 62K on my 2006! At 70 miles a day it'll take me 14 years to get to 300K. Assuming I don't bend it like I did a...
