You have to wait for plate? Capitol had them ready when I got the car.

I stay in D mode for the most part. This is a great coasting car. I only use regen mode when going down a steep hill and use it to help regulate my speed as if I'm downshifting.

Are people really having that tough time getting a decent deal in the Bay Area? I guess I should feel good about the deal I got. to the OP: Glad to hear everything worked out in the end though. Sounds like you'll have a good road trip ahead. What's your charging plan the rest of the way to San...

must be a bad sensor if you aren't low on fluid.

I was wondering about this... I cannot feel the difference between the friction brakes and regen. I had it my head it would be very apparent.

can someone define "Cold"? at what temp can we expect a reduction in range?

none in N. California

cool stuff

have you tried using a different charging unit? Does it only go yellow and turn off or does it also go red?

Is that a city specific thing? I haven't had my Nema 6-50 inspected... idk the difference between that and a 14-50 though. The only cars I ever see charging are Leafs.

for those of you who have installed one of these any noticeable affects on range after install?

I checked the connectors over the weekend to rule that out already. I'm not sure how that would help them out though. I was under the impression that failed warranty parts had to go back to VW. I personally don't suspect foul pay on the dealers end. I've been going there for a decade and know...

The dealer tech ran a few tests and determined whole right headlight housing has to be replaced. Maybe they can just grab the part from the car they already took apart ;)

I opened a case the day I took it into the dealer. I do need to get a print out of the work order. Not sure but don't think so. I'm an 1 1/2 hours south of SF so I assumed it was from a dealer in that area. I never knew they would tear apart a new car..... So do they put that car back...

Sure the hard way but looks like you have a way to add some range in the event of a power failure.

It's nice to be able to turn the car off if you're in a runaway Toyota :)
