So. Defective battery. That's an easy one, but, makes me nervous. In over 50 years of driving I've never had a bad (well, maybe one) battery. And now, here is a lot of them. It happened to me after some service and one day "no start, nothing". Not so bad in the summer when I can take the...

Hmmm. My hybrid doesn't make those sounds. Perhaps some clicking after I turn it off otherwise quiet engine and very quiet when running on battery. When I'm in park the ICE is generally off unless I'm forcing it on, say by running the heater. Maybe it's some shield vibrating. You're gonna have...

My other 4 wheeler is a Miata. At mid-upper 30s mpg it's my gas hog. My bike gets 70s mpg.

I was in a minor accident and they replaced the hood and I got the old hood back. It's substantial but it's aluminum. Doesn't seem flimsy at all. I'm going to make matching mud flaps out of it.

Too late for me. Working for the government (at a National Laboratory) I'm already a robot.

I had a Spitfire. My motorcycle has 3 times the horsepower.

I don't mind driving in it, even with FWD my snow tires (I have extra rims and swap them out in December) do great. Otherwise, winter and snow stinks, don't like the shoveling and the cold. Thinking of moving to Missouri.

I'm very happy with my Garmin. You can take it from vehicle to vehicle and it doesn't require connectivity.

A combination of a train and a minibike.

Now you don't put it into gear. You ask it to go into gear.

On Amazon you can get a little step that fits into your hitch. I use a little piece of 2x2 sq tubing.

What do i notice? That there are a LOT more Mavericks around now then back in '23.

True. I'm going to fill it up when it gets low anyway but it's nice knowing and I get a kick pushing the MPGs up even if it doesn't matter much. Now that I don't work on modifying my rides I still like to play with them.

Well, we will see. Electromotive has been doing it for a long time. Is it going to be a plug-in? That would be smart.

No, it's real battery power. It's that high because he wasn't running on the ICE. If he had run a little farther the ICE would have kicked in using more fuel.

Now, you have to keep that average number going for 10,000 miles. You can do it.

Little weird but I like the practicality. They'd never allow a vehicle without bumpers.

Yeah, more physical knobs and a hand lever parking brake. Default to eco mode. And, most importantly; a SuperCab with a longer bed.

I don't like the lack of an OFF position on the light switch.

After all these threads I went and got myself a voltmeter for the cigarette lighter to see what's going on real time. Sounds like it's not your battery but that's a job for the dealer. Good luck!
