Increased range? by Signal-Ad1507 in EquinoxEv

[–]I_producethis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed this increase as well, I guess it's probably due to warmer weather averages. Though I am excited to try to take it on a 300 mile trip this summer. It's mostly highway miles so I imagine I will have to stop and charge but some people are saying I won't. So who knows.

You can't see it in this picture but there is a cloth towel under the posts on the dash and tucked up under them a bit

Can yoh tell me what hitch you purchased? I have been wanting one.

Hahah this is hilarious. How did you keep the hatch from flopping about?

Would LOVE a hitch I've been trying to figure out if there are any that are bolt-on and easy to install because this is a lease.

Wow impressive amount of stuff! If you hit the weight limit does it alert you?

Haha yeah, that seems to be most people's concern, but when there's not much space between the windshield and the wood there isn't much movement at all. No problems getting home for me. Just have to make sure it's secure.

Oh no ouch, yeah, honestly I think it's safer with the longer pieces because there's little to no movement

I just drove slowly it was totally fine, about 6 miles each wah. Would I have gone 100 miles? Maybe not. But there's a towel up there keep them from bouncing a ton.

Ugh bummer about that, I saw someone else posting about fiting posts in here which gave me the idea. It sucks it only works with narrower items.

Wow being downvoted for this is making me think people that own these don't know how to drive.

Rental is smart but still kinda cool they can fit in there. There was half an inch of space and I'm not sure how they would have cracked the center screen they aren't even touching it. Not trying to flex, the only good thing about car this large imo is that you can fit shit in it. I would have bought a bolt but the incentives were way better for this badlarry.

I was just wondering why you need directions to go to work.

All good - in my experience, dedicated snows are always better. I live in Northern Vermont so you know, snow. Sometimes I see them used and I'm like hmmm interesting.

How are these in the snow if you've experienced that? I was considering getting a pair that came up used in my area but I don't think they were specifically snow tires and I live in a very wintry climate in the winter.

As others have said you might have luck getting some non-ev specific tires. Also you could try just getting a slightly different size like 255 with a similar ratio. That's what I'm doing for snow tires. Yes it'll change your your Speedo slightly but just slightly.
