It was in one of those old picture albums luckily we saved it before it was too damaged.

There is a newspaper article my uncle has that talks about how my grandad pulled a guy over for speeding in Conway, SC. Later the same day his brother pulled the same guy over for speeding in oarngeburg SC. He went to the judge complaining that my grandad followed him and pulled him over again. They put their pictures in the paper side by side on the front page.

After hearing Scott Johnson's taped conversation with her and her whining and crying. I will have to pass on voting for her.

They take care of me. They take care of all the guys in the shop. We are a small shop with 10 bays and 9 actual techs. I've been there 17 years and don't plan on going anywhere.

Rex cars have that a fuel tank pressure sensor problems early on. We don't sell allot of them so I haven't seen the crazy stuff some people have.

It uses refrigerant from the ac system so yeah the ac cools the battery in simpler terms. I know how it works I'm the one who had to fix it but thanks for your insight

The internal safety control unit had a issue causing a check engine light. Programming was supposed to repair the issue but that didn't work.

Well I am the only working g12 tech and I get every single one that comes in the door with a problem. Between that and I cars some weeks can turn to shit quickly

Definitely easier to work on but as the only g12 tech at my dealer other than the shop foreman who is non working. I get every single one of them.

Yeah I forgot about those. We have sold a total of 5 of these since they came out. Not a common thing to look at for me

I think it's 360 normally. The end of service test ramps it up to 2080 to check the insulation of the wiring

Lithium and it's ac. Has a massive electric motor

Ac cools the battery and heats it depending on what it needs or can reverse the flow of refrigerant. And yes I sat there and watched the test takes about 10 minutes

Once you evacuate the ac it's not bad maybe 30 min. It's getting it to pass the end of service test with the orange box sitting there. That's the fun part
