I missed zipping around in my Kona EV for four months. First, let me add a note about leaving an electric vehicle for an extended length of time. We regularly go away for four or five months as Canadian snowbirds. This winter, we stopped driving the car in mid-November but started using it again this week. Before going away, I left the battery 80% full. This Tuesday, I removed the car cover to find it had maintained exactly the same level. Even though the car automatically keeps the normal battery topped up by the large EV battery, there was zero loss shown on the instrumentation.
In this photo, my Hyundai is parked in an uptown shopping center. We had to run to activate my new credit union debit card by using it in a Vancity ATM. We also visited London Drugs and continued to the main Royal City Center Mall too. I had to buy a cheap set of runners at Walmart. I figure at half the price of a name brand, I can afford to replace them twice as often.
Just as the small household routines that must be relearned, experiencing home's normal things takes on added enjoyment.
