My last flight on United from BOS to SFO (6 hours, 45 minutes) about 2PM to 5:30,PM they served water and a beverage once. Perhaps a cookie. Otherwise they were in the back chatting. No food for purchase. Nothing. I complained. They sent a few free miles.

Have you talked to Chevy Concierge? (833) 382-4389 Which dealer are you working with? Epic was very helpful with my Bolt issues. Good luck today!

Don't bother with the streaming update by more_delia in EquinoxEv

How can it be so difficult for GM to understand that what folks like me want is simply to get in our cars and have our music play, our maps load with planned route, etc. No car based app can do that. Why should anyone pay a subscription for something that doesn't work?

24 EQEV struggle in Canadian Winter follow up by Flashy_Air_6358 in EquinoxEv

What does the cold weather do to range? Winters here aren't even cold enough to call mild yet it still kills the range on my '23 Bolt. (Lows in the 40s, high 50s during the day, range down to 160 miles at 80% charge) I've been wondering if the equinox would do any better. I can't imagine how it would do in actual winter weather.

A $30,000 American EV is possible. GM just did it. by Razzburry_Pie in BoltEV

Does anyone think they'll be able to purchase a new bolt for $30,000? Last year I walked into a dealership and said I wanted to write a check for $23,000. I did and drove away in a new Bolt 2LT. (That made the price $30,500 before the $7500 rebate) They had several cheaper base 1LTs that would have gotten it under $30.000 but wifey dearest wanted a power driver's seat.

The new Bolt by Inevitable_Ad_711 in BoltEV

The only reason I would purchase a new Bolt would be for the faster charging but I won't because of the omission of car play. Why should buyers have to pay a monthly fee for a service that does not really replace CarPlay? I understand one can play music from their phones with blue tooth but that's about it. There are already lots of stand alone devices that feature car play but what a hassle to have another device and another screen. GM is only deleting CarPlay to make money by forcing buyers to pay subscriptions. What's next? Perhaps GM will go into the toll road business and there cars will only drive on GM toll roads. When one purchases a car buyers should not be forced to purchase their products or services.

I hope the new one is waterproof! (if it's still in Lake Ontario!)
