My wife and I are loving our new car. Just yesterday hit 1000 miles and today we did our first gas fill-up of $14 dollars (about 4 gallons)! Wow, that would have cost about $130 in my 2010 Odyessy. Of course, we don't yet know what the Level 2* charging is costing us I've read Miles per KWH is about half the cost of gas. If anyone using JCPL in NJ perhaps you know.
* upgraded to Level 2 this week
One self-inflicted incident; left my wife in the car for about 40 minutes in "on" mode with DRL, heater and radio on. We I got, start failed; fortunately, after waiting about 2 minutes with everything off, it started; (went to "Ready" mode). Thanks to other posts, I now know that if you will be draining the 12v battery for more then 5-10 minutes, it's best to leave the car in "Ready" mode - equivalent to "run".
P.S I've been following this board since last November and "your" posts were a major factor in helping me decide on the Clarity.
