Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
620 miles roundtrip this weekend, cruise control set at 85 most the time, with a few jaunts into the 90's just because passing people in this thing is hilarious, especially with the gobs of torque on tap! Averaged 34 MPG which I think is pretty good for those speeds. It's rated at 40 MPG highway, which seems to be possible when around 65 MPH or below (got about 45 coming back from a casino in Oklahoma two weeks ago). The car was very comfortable, and above all else, nearly silent even at fast highway speeds. Almost eerily quiet with minimal wind noise. Cool car, great purchase...definitely due for a good wash & wax tonight after work!

Not to bad. Interested to hear what you see for city miles.

That would be sweet for DD duty. Most people I'm sure they're daily work commute falls within that range. Wonder if employers would let you plug in at work? I'd have to run a long ass extension cord I think, which I'm guessing they wouldn't be fond of.

Everything was fine & normal in San Antonio though, apparently the flood gates were all working as intended on the river since nothing appeared out of the ordinary on the Riverwalk. |

Free "gas", can't really beat that.

Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
I'd plug it in at work, but after 4pm it's just me and one other person at work.

The side curtain airbags did deploy. OnStar called the police and immediately sent a kill signal to the engine. |
Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
Damn! Glad you area okay though!

Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
damn man, I think it looks worse than it really is though, doors probably just meant to crumple like that. I bet that's completely fixable.

Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
Ugh sucky! Glad everyone is ok!

Yowza! Good thing it was a Canyon and not a Silverado. Glad you're alright.

Re: Project Gholt: Slower, Heavier, & Quieter
It's at the Chevy dealership's collision center now and should hear from the insurance company later this week on what they're thinking. With all the electronics, I figured it was a wise choice to let the dealership handle this one rather than the body shop I typically use.
