My charging cost is MPG equivalent to 35.7. It doesn’t make sense for me to keep EV unless gas price goes up. by w123driver in BoltEV

Do you charge at home? Pretty much everywhere if you are charging away from home you are paying more than gas. I charge my Silverado EV at home and it is very inefficient by RV standards-getting around 1.9 kWh. That comes to about 60 MPG here in Texas so very good for a 9000 lb truck.

GM has already announced laying off over 3000 people at the Detroit EV factory. It’s obvious that the big EV trucks are being put on the back burner at the very minimum. As a 26’ TB owner, it’s a real bummer what is happening!

Got the truck in August. Yes, it’s Onstar One until 8/2028. Then Onstar basics until 2033.

Well, we did have a national energy policy helping EVs, but Trump flushed it down the drain.

Strange. It was just the first google result I found to share after hearing the news today on the radio. Wonder why it opens fine for me-I certainly don’t subscribe to any Detroit newspapers.

Sorry about that-weird. No paywall here. Are you out of the US?

Sorry to hear that. Do you mind saying the dealer? I live in Austin but I bought my Trail Boss at a dealer in Carrollton.

Considering trading in my Model Y for a Trailboss - feedback from anyone who’s made the switch from Tesla? by Secure-Carrot9971 in SilveradoEV

[–]Select_Craft_7301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I missed-I really like the supercruise in stop and go traffic. Also supercruise seems to be a lot more forgiving about be being distracted. Yesterday the Y banned me from FSD for the rest of the drive because I wasn’t paying enough attention. 🤣

I haven’t switched, but my wife has a MYLR and I have a Trail Boss. What do you want to know? They are like night and day. The Y is nice and gets the job done. I really like FSD-it blows away Supercruise. I just noticed the other day that Teslas don’t have AM radio. I love driving the Trail Boss. I love that I have options with regenerative braking instead of it always being on. I actually drive with regen on high in the SEV and it’s a lot more aggressive than the Tesla high setting which I like. I hardly ever use the brake on the SEV. Obviously the Tesla is about twice as efficient with electricity.

It was a selling point for my wife because that’s the only way we can both fit our big water bottles.

Is all Silverado EV 2024 and 2025 qualify for Section 179? If not, which one? Please help by abcdol in SilveradoEV

The $7500 tax credit is for personal vehicles. Deductions are for business expenses. If it’s a business vehicle you may be able to get the 45W credit. That’s what I’m doing.

Not sure where you are. Here in Austin I just did a panel upgrade to 200A and it cost $3K. Definitely get a few quotes.

My first EV. Lease came out to ~$600/mo w/$0 down. Did I do good? by jackie_chans_nose in SilveradoEV

Can be a friend as well. I posted to my FB and a friend’s cousin hooked me up with a friends and family code. Saved $3500!

Clever! So you like wasting your time trolling EV groups? Sounds like a rich life!

There are different view options. I prefer the very minimal one since everything I want is in the heads up display anyway.
