cts | Volt a Day | First Day November 15, 2010

I burned 0.03 gallons of gas.

I dropped the boys at school, ran an errand down Montana, drove to a doctor's appointment in Beverly Hills (not sure yet about the brow lift), stopped on the way home to drop cookies at a friend's house and he took a test drive (snag, that cost me). I drove to downtown Santa Monica for lunch, collected the boys from school and dropped them home. I zipped out to grab groceries for dinner, returned and picked up D. and his cello to drop him for his lesson. Returned and started dinner, ran out to get him after his lesson and on the way back up the hill the ICE kicked on with a block left to go. It switched off as I turned onto our street and we glided into our alley and garage back under the power of the battery.

38.7 miles, but that wasn't fair since I didn't try to extend my range at all (which I would have if I thought it was going to be close for the day), and because Antoine stomped on the pedal.

So not a great test yet.
