Increase range on GT for long trips

Boo They'd give me $31k for my car. I can't take a $20k hit after 6 months and sleep at night.

The GTPE took a $20k hit too, so it’s all relative.

Try to negotiate a better deal or look at 3rd party offers on your car?

So on my ride home yesterday, I had AC on, 27% of my energy consumption was AC, it was a 15miles ride, I don't know about you but 27% energy consumed is not "almost no power" .

Man, I have never seen anything close to 27% energy consumption due to climate control, especially not when using AC.

My trip from Las Vegas to Anaheim and back was a 583 mile trip using the AC between 60-64 degrees the entire time on levels 3-4. I used adaptive cruise control set to 9MPH above whatever the posted speed limit was, usually 65 so we were cruising at 74 most of the trip.

I averaged 3.1 mi/kWh and only 4% went to the climate use. This was late June so the outside temps were in the 90s
