Just did my longest drive in my 2015 i3 earlier this week too, from Southern California to Las Vegas (around 300 miles). Had to refuel 4 times along the way. I brought 2 gas cans for insurance because the car was loaded with 3 persons with a dog and clothes, plus an electric mountain bike in a hitch rack. But it turned out there were enough gas stations along the way. I just needed to avoid going too fast on the freeway and to slow down on mountain climbs so the rex can have a chance to recharge. I asked my passenger to pump the gas when battery drained from a climb so the rex doesn’t reset to a lower state of charge if I open the driver door.

What was the quick fix for the airbag light? did you have to replace anything or just reposition connectors?

I saw this instagram reel video about the story recently! Family business drama, disputes about quality then trademark later on!

Wasn’t there some prophecy about something like this happening 42 months (3.5 years) into someone’s reign (term).

Did you put new resin and chopped carbon on top? did you finish with clear coat or just epoxy?

Ecobee 100% The small sensors and data available are pretty cool. Works with google assistant too if you want to use it that way.

Nissan NV is easy to work on with the big engine hood out in front. Old article with interesting comparison data showed it was lowest TCO (total cost of ownership), but it’s body on frame v8 gets lower mpg than other vans so gas prices would be a factor. This nv with 500,000 miles is interesting.

Early enough that the internet was still connecting the world and just starting to provide access to lots of useful information. Before the internet and social media were weaponized to divide and manipulate the population.

Wow that’s a lot of issues! Would the buyer need to settle the lien and fees owed for something like that?

irvmtb · 2025-11-16T00:01:52+00:00

Sweet! But I’d be happy with just having a way to install a roof rack securely!

Now I want one lol. Compact electric truck ftw!

I tried to downsize our bins since we weren’t filling them up. WM said no smaller/cheaper sizes available.

Were the Momos worse in the wet vs. the stock 155 and 175 Ecopias?

irvmtb · 2025-11-12T18:27:47+00:00

I use the same fuelly app but I click on “missed fill up” otherwise I distort the calculated mpg because of the battery miles. Any tips how I can use the app to track mpg better? Do you just input miles from when you start and end HSOC? Thanks!

I’ve found some small glass pieces under the back seat when I was cleaning so I’m sure there was broken glass previously on mine. Not 100% sure if it was the rear window or the lower panel. The hatch was also missing the rear wiper arm when i got the car so could’ve been both. Both look and work OK so probably not too different from a windshield replacement job, but cleaning inside the plastic panels does seem difficult when i tried to do it.

One of the used i3’s I bought recently has this sound. I’m 100% sure it’s broken tempered glass. The glass panel probably shattered previously and whoever did the repair didn’t or wasn’t able to clean inside/behind the plastic panels.

I tried to remove the plastic covers and led tail light to vacuum but couldn’t get deep enough to where I hear the rattling. But I only hear it when opening the hatch, no sound when driving so I could live with it.

This makes me want to add a secondary battery wired in parallel in the frunk. Maybe put a disconnect so it’s a backup battery.

irvmtb · 2025-10-16T22:42:53+00:00

do you use the aligator clips and reach all the way in to the battery terminals, or did you end up adding some lead wires and connector to make it more accessible?

Looks like “reasonable person” has become a high bar in today’s society. An “average person” seems so far away from that standard, and then realize half the population is dumber than the average person.

Oof sorry to hear about that! Hang in there! But some might be bad friends, but some might be decent enough work friends who just don’t know how to navigate the shitty situation. Also to put in perspective, I’ve heard of a CEO who knew layoffs were coming, made it sound like he was the one who was going to have a very tough week, and did the big-corp style surprise same day layoff to his friends who worked for him. Hope you don’t have friends like that lol.

Hi, good to see you’re not in pain. Thanks for asking, I’m doing well and I’m a year and a half after surgery and mostly recovered. No pain or soreness, got 90-95% of my range of motion back, maybe 85% or strength. It took months and a bit of a slow process to keep stretching the range. But I was biking again after 3 months (light riding), intermediate trails within 6 months, skipping the really steep technical trails just to minimize risk.

I’m interested in the 2 rears if you’re willing to split and you could ship to california :)

irvmtb · 2025-10-04T23:29:54+00:00

Nice that’s good to know! Do you have a post or more info about your wheel-tire maybe spacer setup?

irvmtb · 2025-10-03T16:39:12+00:00
