I need to go to my home in the Delta for Thanksgiving. Looks like I have a weather window there today. No new snow for at least Sunday. It will be interesting to see how the range of my Volt is impacted by climbing in the freezing temps.
Chains, boots, gloves, and survival gear are loaded just in case.

As for charging, there is so much change that I think I will skip that step. I have 220 run to my parking space both at both homes. My Volt is now over 10 years old and has over 250,000 miles on it. Things are starting to go wrong. Both heating and AC required repair in the last few months. I have always been concerned with the ground clearance. I only have 3.5 inches. The snow on the pass is deeper than that. So I am considering replacement of that vehicle. Time and circumstances will tell.

I understand about the ground clearance issue. My Dodge Charger doesn’t have much either so I found out on a few occasions.

Winning on a Thorsday morning where it's 14C with 28C expected before the rain hits.

Anyhow it's coffee time.

Cheers.

Am I 'winning'?

'Tis very hard work here outside of Civilization, trying to humor along the remains of a motley crew, in the dismal dark and wet. Especially so when everything is taken without any enthusiasm or interest, just 'as is', no initiative. Everything has to immediately magically work 'just so', or simply whatever just doesn't work. No sympathy or any wider awareness is available to smooth things along more easily.

Perhaps Elon is right about just throwing the smelly lot out and replacing the Human defacto automatons with real mechanical automatons...

At least then I wouldn't be having to waste my time playing psychologist to overcome their lack-of-imagination forever grumpiness...

The trippy-high-sugar junk food doesn't help.


Soon... To make my escape for the evening... Into the dark and wet and a long walk to the only decent beer for miles around!

(First... I've got to manually operate a remote stuck valve. That thing might get fixed come springtime...)

((Grump... Grump!... ;-) ))

I can drive on a graded dirt road, my gf says the ride is not so great at times as she says OW sometimes, but that might be the old suspension.

In any case my next car will be a 2020-2023 Chevy Bolt EV.
