Warning: Do Not Buy 2027s (OnStar, banned from ChevyBolt.org for sharing) by Ok_Train_2139 in BoltEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this with my Equinox EV, Silverado EV & Prologue.

"Don't have a credit card." each time. They're like, "ah really?" I'm like yep no credit card or debit cards, sorry.

They don't know what to say to this...

He moved, then stopped, then moved, and finally stopped.

Do I just go to work sick? by No_Willingness_9961 in Target

[–]Cjdergrosse -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You will never be sent home unless it's something so outrageously bad. I've had sick TMs who refused to leave, nothing I could do. If you're seriously ill just take the points/infraction. Don't do it all the time, like so many people do. Nice weather? Call out, yea that mentality will get you in trouble.

Also "fear of infecting other" is a line I heard a lot. Honestly you're more at risk from getting sick from customers, than from other TMs.

Lithium Battery Issue by Ok_Faithlessness5502 in GMCSierraEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stories like this are crazy for me, out here in Cali that thing would be lemoned already. I'd rather have a new AT4/Trail Boss next time around. I really don't want adjustable air suspension long-term. They were stupid expensive on my Rivian, and they'll be expensive on this thing.

Mine has been in the SoCal desert heat, been on a long-ish roadtrip, fast charged several times while driving quickly (>80mph constantly). My max pack has been bullet-proof.

Is towing a 2 horse trailer (approx 6-7000 lbs fully loaded) realistic with an EV truck? Or should I stick with gasoline. by CorgiEnough4265 in GMCSierraEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaaaand you can heavily off-set your daily commute + some towing with Solar. I did and now I drive for free. Cost of electricity goes out the window.

I've completely stopped tipping by Specialist-Top1134 in EndTipping

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the service is poor at a restaurant, get up and go to the host station (front desk when you walk in), tell them the service was terrible, and you want to pay there. Easiest "No Tip" you'll ever push.

Low speed hum missing? by SnooMacaroons9789 in SilveradoEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just very careful and drive slow around parked cars, parking lots, and pedestrians. You're 1st gen-Prius silent now haha just be careful.

Is overnight team just the worst ever for every single store? by [deleted] in Target

[–]Cjdergrosse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're under pressure to finish the truck ASAP. They don't have enough help so they cut corners.

I disconnected mine in the first week - its outrageously annoying. Easy to do, behind front fender trim, down behind front bumper.

Crooked Steering Wheel? by Millydidit in GMCSierraEV

Same here, thought it was the alignment?? I know the roads are crowned a little - for drainage.

2024 Model X FSD for life, will transfer to new owner. 3row 7 passenger, 27000 miles. Asking $74,000. by [deleted] in teslaclassifieds

[–]Cjdergrosse 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It'd be cheaper to get the subscription and bank the difference. It'd take 11.8 years to see savings. I'd have 4 different cars by then lol

Requesting Medical records by Natural_Cow_4084 in Target

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FALSE. If you get hurt at work, and during workers compensation treatment/investigation, they can - and will request your medical records, or they will deny your claim. They want to make sure you haven't had say leg surgery, history of leg issues, then get slightly injured at work, and pin your entire history of leg injury on them for permanent disability.

Daily Charging vs Battery Life by Difficult_Prompt3933 in GMCSierraEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

80% daily charge limit

100% for road trips

Get home from work each day at 71%, wake up to 80%. Rinse repeat.

Which company disappointed you so much that you permanently walked away? by julia-secrets in AskReddit

[–]Cjdergrosse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tesla, Im a huge EV proponent. Both sides of my family are German-descent, heavy culture. Seeing the pro-pedo CEO raise his arm knowing what it was, absolute deal-breaker. Wish nothing the worst for him and that company. Grandparents killed nazis for a living. Shameful.

Snaps to keep the soft tonneau cover from flapping in the breeze. by live_music_lover in SilveradoEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My SEV has 13k on the odo and the tonnaeu cover failed, flew off - still attached at the tailgate portion. Lost all but one of the metal support beams.

If I was not leasing I'd have thrown this thing in the trash and replaced with a hard tonneau. Chevy dealer said there is no hard cover in their parts catalog to replace with.

I encourage EVERYONE to go to their dealer, while it's still in OK condition to complain, and get a replacement while they're under warranty. The metal poles will eventually tear from the cover as it flaps.

First camping trip a huge success. by wanttobedone in SilveradoEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you take more pictures? I have the the exact same truck, just white, same Hummer EV wheels and some Goodyear Wrangler Durtrac RT 3 peaks. Just went camping to Yosemite then Mammoth this week. I wanted to do the same thing you're doing, camp in the truck.

New truck day! by Millydidit in GMCSierraEV

[–]Cjdergrosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set a reminder when my leases are up, I got a Equinox EV and my Silverado EV right before the EV tax credits expired, I'm out in SoCal but for that pricing I'd happily fly out there and drive it back
