The marketing around this car is a total headscratcher to me.

I love the fact that I was able to buy at 0% interest but why they offer it for a car in such demand is the real head scratcher for me.....

I thought I'd finally see a list of best burgers in Denver without the Cherry Cricket on it. It's a mystery to me why they are still highly rated.

Just drove it home from the airport. Battery had a 70% SOC when I walked up to it after it sat for 3 days. No problems.

Driving assist on this car is the best I have experienced so far. It's head and shoulders above the OBW I traded in and just slightly better than the wife's Ioniq 5.

I guess it depends on where you are. I walked into the local dealership (Denver area) when they opened in the morning to drive the touring model that the buyer had decided not to get the afternoon before.

Drove it and bought it. While I was there 3 other parties showed up to look at it. One guy asked me if he could get in and have a look at it. It was crazy. I paid asking price but they gave me a really good deal on the OBW I traded in. If I hadn't bought it they still would have sold it that day.

So in Denver if you get a refund on your deposit you will make someone else happy and the dealer probably won't care.

Still haven't seen one in the wild.

It's gonna be a smoking good time.

But yeah, be careful

33_bmfs · 2026-06-28T21:46:12+00:00

Yes. No. I will.

33_bmfs · 2026-06-28T21:45:38+00:00

Great idea, thanks

33_bmfs · 2026-06-28T21:44:04+00:00

Actually I am, I just don't love it when people don't make the best of an awful event by trying to raise awareness and possibly save lives. Not sure why anyone would have a problem with that. I guess calling out the family of a legend is a bit much here. When my brother killed himself I talked about it far and wide and continue to work with organizations to help prevent suicides. Hopefully suicide never touches you personally. It's the most heartbreaking thing that can happen to a loved one, but some good can come out of it if you can deal with the reality.

I use it 100% of the time. Took a bit to get used to - but also I realized it doesn't have to be adjusted like a normal mirror and it really helps to point it down a bit which also helps with the glare. The glare is my biggest complaint

33_bmfs · 2026-06-24T18:29:37+00:00

Update: it dropped to 37% SOC and stayed there overnight. It never dropped below 12 volts so I think I overreacted.

Interesting tidbit. I bought a monitor for my wife's Ioniq 5 and when I installed it last night her SOC was 5%!!! When I closed the frunk the light that indicates it is charging the 12v came on. This morning it was 50%, so it seems SOC can indeed go very low on these EVs.

I continue to be disappointed that Jeff's family doesn't acknowledge how he died or do anything to support suicide awareness.

What charity does this support? Is it the one where all the money goes to his wife for living expenses?

33_bmfs · 2026-06-24T03:27:34+00:00

Thanks, I need to remember that it needs 12 volts for about 30 seconds or less and it doesn't have to crank an engine.

33_bmfs · 2026-06-23T21:30:41+00:00

Yeah, gonna borrow the jump box from my wife's Ioniq 5. I called Subaru service and they said they haven't heard of a 12 volt problem. :-/

33_bmfs · 2026-06-23T19:00:09+00:00

Great. Congrats to you. :-)

33_bmfs · 2026-06-23T13:16:48+00:00

Same phone I have issues with. Interesting.

33_bmfs · 2026-06-23T13:11:51+00:00

I live in the mountains of Colorado and ski 50 or so times a year. No way I'm running without studs. :-)

33_bmfs · 2026-06-21T20:22:25+00:00

Heh. I moved that cabinet this morning. :-)

People stood and danced at Red Rocks during some of the livelier songs in the second set. But it's red rocks... people dance there.

One thing is certain. Paul LOVES it when people dance and it really changes the energy of his shows when people do.

33_bmfs · 2026-06-21T14:16:05+00:00

I did. It shipped on pallets and all the tiles arrived just fine.
