    Replacement Fob

    Lost the fob, not me, my kid. Blank: 66 bucks, programming 80 bucks. $146 total plus change. They need the car for a couple of hours. So there...

    Sonic EV to cannibalize Spark EV?

    Presumably like Apple watch. The way I see it, unless EVs can get a new lease on life by being supported by newer (meaning bigger) batteries by the auto makers (that so far pretty much dislike the idea) no one will be inclined to hold on to them due to their built-in obsolescence, and trashed...

    Chevy makes bigger replacement side mirrors

    Ha-ha! Right on the money...! Pawl, I hope I'm never in YOUR blind spot. I've driven over million miles. Never caused an accident. Mirrors setup to perfection. Pulled back into my lane many times not to hit car in my blind spot. I cannot safely determine who's lurking next to me without dancing...

    I just pulled the trigger!! What now?!

    You're better off shipping the car. It's way too crazy of an idea to try to drive it. Better yet, show the deal to the local dealer and tell them to match it. They'll do it.

    Chevy makes bigger replacement side mirrors

    I use small blind-spot mirrors on all my cars so the side mirror's size or shape is no problem for me. The blind-spot mirrors save my ass every day and I can't believe other drivers don't put them up. I could not change lanes to the left without looking into it. Tdk408, you should have leased.

    Any significant increase in home electricity bill?

    PG&E has a special EV rate. You have to give them the VIN in order to get it. In my case, Marin County has become a juice provider, so MCS (Marin Clean Energy) charges for the juice and PG&E for delivery only. I signed up for deep green, so no CO2 generated in my EV driving. The best and...

    Anyone here HAVE a 2015 Spark EV ??

    No matter where you buy the car, Ca makes you pay the tax when you register the car, unless it's an older purchase. Don't know the exact number of months. Avoiding Ca tax by buying in Oregon is a lost proposition last time I looked into it.

    Isn't Sonic designated to be the 200-mile competitor to Tesla Model III?

    Horn honk when the key leaves the vehicle

    I'm there with you... Particularly on that random honk. I get it too. Key in hand, shut the door...HONK!

    Horn honk when the key leaves the vehicle

    It's there alright. That was the 1st thing I nixed the day we got the car.

    Pedestrian Alert System hooked up to Headlight Flasher

    The issue has been discussed last year when Spark came out. Dealer told me the sound is intended. I say, BS. It's a bug, and they need to fix it along with that same randomly executed, intensely annoying sound when you shut driver's door and the car thinks the key is inside, even when it isn't...

    Sparkmobile on Mt. Tam

    Except that location looks like Stinson beach, not Mt.Tam parking lot.

    There comes 10 insurance grand your way for that sore neck... 8-)

    Best replacement tires?

    I had a hell of a time getting fronts replaced as one bulged out. Costco had none. Got it through a local tire shop. They said these were Prius tires and had to order them. I have to take a look what they are. They are low resistance tires but no Michelins, that's for sure. I'll update this...
