While an analog gas gauge may seem to be more accurate, I find they vary a bit with temperature and also hit E with a few gallons left in the...
I think Toyota states something in the vicinity of 1 mile for electric range. In practice, it uses the engine most of the time excepting when...
But isn't coal the dirtiest possible source of energy? You should be putting natural gas or batteries in stockings for Xmas :-)
10 minutes sounds very optimistic. If I haven't done a particular service on a particular car before, it usually takes me that long to figure out...
