I never did thank you Akikiki for your kind offer of a ride to the SC. I didn't see your offer until I had gone as they had called me late Friday night to pick the car up. I was so surprised - when I drove it - my mind was clouded over. Well - not much of an update - I have since tried to...

Well I'm not sure I have more negative comments than positive ones. Since I didn't list the positive it would be a little premature to think my negative list is bigger. I appreciate your kind words for me to prepare for a "real problem", in the event it should ever surface. You have helped...

I like the fact I can use my PV panels to fill it up and not go to the Gas Station! All kidding aside - I do like the car - but I have searched the "All Knowing Internet" and find that the wind noise has pretty well been outlined by many others and seems to be an issue that "might be in...

Vanity Plates - UPDATE Thanks for answer on Vanity Plates - I think I'm going to use the Aloha Spirt - Get my boys Initials on Vanity Plates - park where I want to and have them prove it's not an Electric Vehicle and only a DMV admin error - of course I sometimes like being "Dead Wrong"...

Car Payment For what it is worth - my DS-MAC, last week told me that for Hawaii you "MUST" pay first before they take to the BOAT. If you pay by wire transfer - kind of neat the way they have the price and information all typed out - just hit print button and call bank for wire transfer...

VIN - Hawaii Vanity Plates I got my VIN last WED and the VIN was X9329, with a promised end of assembly line last Friday - and a delivery date between 8-22 May. DS, MAC said - should go to boat - processing 3 days, 10 days enroute, 3 days off boat - final delivery - soon. Since I don't...

A question - does anyone know if a "special plate", on an electric car - qualify for pulling into a "parking lot" EV charging station that says - special plate required? Yes, of course I ordered a Hawaii special plate with my kid's initials - folks at DMV said no problem - but the wording on the...
