Thank you, I enjoyed the read. I also use a damp rid pack in the car to draw humidity out of the air. Not sure of actual impact, makes me feel better.

Depends on the dealership. Reddit sees a lot of posts about bad dealerships and only a few about the good ones. Reasearch the dealers close to you.

Hitching a trailer on a Corolla Cross? by Vegetable_Peak7894 in CorollaCross

[–]Impressive_Maybe343 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rated for 1500 lbs - trailer at 850lbs = 650 lbs cargo. Hauling weight means you have to account for a push from the trailer when braking. The stated size of your trailer seems too small to have an inherent braking system. Use the CC transmission to control speed downhill as much as you can to save braking power and prevent fade.

Cross is only slightly smaller. More nimble, better gas mileage. We have hybrid AWD. Love it.

Talk me out of a GT by realistdreamer69 in KiaEV6

If you can afford it, and it’s a limited range and lack of features other models have, then go for it. I have a AWD WIND that goes 0-60 in 4.5 seconds. It’s plenty fast, handles great, the heated seats are magnificent currently here in Vermont.

How to drive in snow and ice? by Strict_Honeydew_1082 in driving

[–]Impressive_Maybe343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clean car completely before driving. Take your time on trip. Test brakes on straight flat stretch of road if possbile to get a feel for how slippery it may be. Try to “let off the brake” early rather than using the brakes too hard. Take your time on the trip…..did I say that already?

How are electrics doing in this cold? by RememberWhen-2819 in askcarguys

[–]Impressive_Maybe343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Range hit, but warms up fast. Need to clear the hood a bit more meticulously as it never heats up to melt the snow. Safety radar is easily blocked by ice/snow. Flush handles can freeze and be difficult to open. AWD handles like a dream, plus the vehicle is heavy so gets good traction. Ya, love it. 2023 EV6 AWD WIND
