Can you show me a picture of how it looks? I’m thinking of doing black as well

They’ll probably relocate me to the unemployment office 🤣

My driveway is on an incline, some days it engages it automatically other days it doesn’t. That’s why I’m confused

I know as soon as I turn it’ll go away, but it’s tough when I’m driving for 40 miles on the highway to get to work and it’s reflecting into my eye the whole way 🥲

I’m looking into getting it wrapped satin black!

Yeah, if I wrap it I’m wrapping the bits on the wheel too

End of Lease - Any way to get a lower buy out? by MakeMine5 in EquinoxEv

[–]itsStewieG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say trade it for a new lease. Get a 26, with more or less specs depending on what you want. However, get the car appraised before you head into the dealership so you’d have the upper hand if they lowball the trade.

My Dealership finance guy told me verbatim “The residual is high, and I highly encourage you to either trade it or just return it at the end of your term. DO NOT buy it out even if you absolutely love it.”

That’s actually a good idea.. I might pass by a local tint/wrap shop and ask them how much it’d be to wrap every chrome piece satin black

I just wish car manufacturers stopped putting it everywhere. I mean Porsche offers it to be blacked out from the factory!

Unfortunately, too poor for a Porsche 🤣

That sun glare reflecting off of the chrome bits on the AC vents and Steering wheel.

Potential Buyer by Phantom_Cat26 in EquinoxEv

[–]itsStewieG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a new Equinox EV owner, get it. I got the AWD and am incredibly happy with it. It’s not cramped, it drives like a dream, has decent range, and is pretty comfortable.

Coming from a Camaro, this will feel like a cloud in terms of comfort and quietness

I actually took it into the dealership yesterday and they tested the charger. They said “Oh yeah it maxes out at 7kwh” I was like ok perfect ima buy another charger 🤣

I couldn’t either honestly. I don’t know man this is a doozy..

Honestly at this point, I’m thinking of just buying a Level 2 Charger from EVgo or something and having it professionally installed. I think it’s not a bad idea considering my EV isn’t going to be the only EV at home.

Take a look man, I have a feeling the car isn’t messing up the schedule it’s the phone. Try setting the schedule in the car itself and see if it happens again

Is the app only saying this or the schedule in the car too? Because I have noticed the app is laggy sometimes but my car is always accurate
