    Ok this is getting annoying, toyota service is horrible

    I think they are sister dealerships but under different management teams. I don't think the service shuttle will go out to Simi Valley though. If you go ask for service advisor Bob Cobos. Tell him I sent you and I said he would take care of you. Have Suniel (sp?) work on your vehicle. First...

    Ok this is getting annoying, toyota service is horrible

    Well... all I can say is my dealership, DCH Toyota of Oxnard has been First Class with both sales and service. Service is the best I have ever received and I am treated like royalty every time I go in. It seems most of the guys in the service dept. recognize me when I show up with the EV (I...

    Temperature and efficiency

    Yup... that works for me too. I also make sure the "AC Off" is displayed.

    They want to kill the EV with Hydrogen cars

    http://www.autoblog.com/2013/11/20/2015-hyundai-tuscon-fuel-cell-la-2013/ From the above mentioned press release... might see hydrogen filling stations at your local sewer plant in the future? :o Unlimited supply... ;)

    Toyota needs to stand behind their Rav4 EV

    I think part of the issue here is the cost for a dealership to be part of the EV program. I know here in my local Ventura area one dealership service manager told me that they (Ventura Toyota) didn't want to be part of the EV program... that it was going to cost the dealership around $100K to...

    12V Output Limit

    Can you put the car in a ready state and draw off the 12v battery with an inverter and have the traction battery recharge the 12v?

    chargers are filled with the Volts and Prius Plug Ins

    I think he is talking about courtesy to the pure EV's... when I had my PIP I would never take a free public spot as I felt they were truly intended for pure electric vehicles... not plug in hybrids. This is why I drive locally within my charge level/range and try to not leave myself in a...

    Replacement Key Fob

    I have heard the wireless key fob is around $200-250.00. I would think the dealer is the place to get one. Good luck!

    Rav4 EV for sale, POST HERE ONLY

    Yeah mine was dead when the salesman went to take it to detailing after sitting on the lot for 3 or more weeks. They jumped it with a portable 12v battery and it started right up. The dealerships need to realize the phantom drain these cars have will kill the 12v battery every time. So many...

    Tesla model S UMC with J1772 & JESLA(tm) conversion

    How does the UMC select amperage? It must have some way of knowing what plug is being used?

    $17,500 off by 1 Dec 2014, Production Ended August 2014

    Call and ask to talk to the sales manager... better yet go to the GM and see what he can do. Be respectful to them... I think you will get further with honey than vinegar in this case. They can always throw the "no cooling off period in CA" at you if you get in their face.

    All Insurance Questions

    If you are getting full coverage on the Rav4 EV for $336/year that's a pretty good price. I have a spotless driving record and pay USAA around $680/year. Are you sure that 336 isn't for 6 months? If not I might give State Farm a call. :)

    Car enthusiasts on this forum?

    I have a supercharged 2002 Z06 Corvette with 580 hp at the rear wheels. Also have a Shelby CSX Cobra with a 526CI fuel injected all aluminum Shelby FE engine. The Cobra pulled on the dyno 650 hp at the tires and 780 hp at the flywheel. Both are scary fast. The Z06 is the 5th Corvette I have...
