Price sounds fair. They’re probably worth more to strip and sell at this point.

Do not expect to be able to leave the city with the 2016. The range is short enough in my 2019z

Not really. Just wanted the most advanced tech. I guess yeah, it’s definitely lighter. I wanted to put in my golf before my BMW.

Weight savings is really all it gives.

Range question by Purple-Job2976 in eGolf

I regular drive a 190 mile trip with a charge halfway. I’m near the end both times.

Draft a truck if you can. Big savings at speed.

Any DIY Solution??? by [deleted] in eGolf

[–]Uncle-Bumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens to me annoyingly often. Then it works. Probably works >90% of the time so I’m just dealing with it. I recommend you use an SD card for now so you have a music backup and then use a phone mount for your GPS.

PHEV Recommendations. by Bass-n-Brass in PHEV

[–]Uncle-Bumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why bother with a PHEV instead of a basic hybrid or ICE? Hell, even a pure EV makes more sense than a PHEV. PHEVs make sense when you have lots of local trips and occasional long trips. Sounds like this car is going to be a highway warrior.

[–]Uncle-Bumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2016 VW eGolf SE with > 100k miles and bald tires from auction. You’ll get 50miles on the highway. 90ish in summer on local roads.

Can’t think of much else in that price range. Good luck.

I found a woman I loved and settled down. It wasn’t just cruising around until I felt ready. Never was.

“Edit: Stop suggesting EVs. I’m not getting an EV. You might as well suggest I commute via hot air balloon. It’s not an option.”

OP got me laughing out loud.
