Life prevented me from being able to sit down and write a blog, but fortunately, it did not prevent me from reaching the pinnacle of my hypermiling on October 15 and posting a 60 mile estimated charge.
It also didn't stop me from taking a breather with my beloved Volt Zippy and getting us both a full detail, including a nice hot wax.
Technically, I suppose I can say that life didn't stop me from improving all my stats in VoltStats, but I must also say that my standings were held pretty much steady, mainly due to the many 2016 Volts coming onto the scene (although none in Florida), with their increased 53+ mile per charge range and all.
Why won't there be 2016 Volts in Florida, you ask? Chevrolet has decided to make 2016 a short model year for the Volt and only release it in the 11 states that uphold CARB 2 standards.
Obviously, the Sunshine State does not make the cut.
We will see the Gen 2 Volt in late 2016, when the 2017 Volt (beginning production in March 2016) arrives on the scene with its (rumored) DC fast charging port. This, we all want to see.
I'll try to bring more Volt news, more often... but life happens.
