Get a good EV from a smart company that starts with a T and you won't have issues. Or out of millions of vehicles, only a select few have some issues. Gas cars are much worse and going from electric to gas for a week while on vacation, shows me that can be any more true. So glad gas isn't in my life anymore. What a waste of money, time and stress.

Working for an EV company I’ve learned that it’s most of the time 12 Volt Battery, the dealership didn’t put the vehicle on a battery tender or sometimes to reset the vehicle to make the car put into gear; so remove the negative battery terminal, if the battery jumper doesn’t work, and or remove one of the 60 Amp or 40 amp fuse after like five minutes of removing the negative terminal from the battery wait 10 minutes and then put the fuse back in, this will reset the vehicle OS and should resolve it, most of the time it’s not the large battery it’s always the 12 volt battery that takes a 💩 or very low battery as shown in this video the battery was at 11.3

GM is certainly not the first EV maker that I would try. I don't think I can afford a Tesla, but people who don't need long range seem fairly happy with them. I new some folks who had Chevy Volts, didn't keep them very long. Chevy Bolt, I see on the 'net, seems to have the worst reputation of all EVs. If I could afford a Hummer, I could afford a Tesla, and would. I see folks who do get Teslas seem to keep them. I know one travelling salesman who was offered a BMW company car to make sales calls. He showed his company how a Tesla would be cheaper, and had planned his route so that he could charge up while he was in his customer's offices. He has been doing his long distance sales calls with no problems (about twice the Tesla's expected range on one charge).

I know little about EVs. These are real questions. Is a little jump pack like that supposed to help an EV in any way? Did the owner charge the EV after 238 miles?

[@tractorsold1]

@@sleepydog223 Generally, accessories such as the lights, radio, and computers in an EV or a hybrid are 12 volt, just like other cars. The drive motors are higher voltage, but won't run without the 12 volt battery and computer, so jumping with a 12 volt pack can make a difference. During normal operation, it's easy to pick of 13 to 15 volts to charge the 12 volt battery. For example, my Prius drivetrain uses a 750 volt battery and has a 12 volt battery for the accessories. After several years of use, the 12 volt battery finally gave out just like other cars. I used the 12 volt system in my Subaru to jump my Prius. With the 12 volt jump, the engine computer was able to start the gas engine, (it's engine is started by one of the 750 volt motors). As long as the car was turned on, the charging system provided both 12 volt and 750 volt power. Replacing the 12 volt battery was a piece of cake.

I thought he was giving you a hondo for all the extra trouble you had to go through to navigate that minefield (interlocking stone driveway, avoiding the new cars , not scratching his fancy painted garage floor etc etc but he was just handing over the key fob.):

Proof that having $500K worth of vehicles does not mean you are safe from the GM product break downs. These toys are better off left in the box and put on the shelf for display purposes only. lol

[@2packs4sure]

The only thing in that guy's beautiful driveway that I would trust at all is that Bronco...

[@Towtruck_Dustin]

Probably one of the more reliable vehicles there lol

[@2packs4sure]

No doubt, though that's not difficult parked next to Range Rovers and Hummer EV's... lol @@Towtruck_Dustin

[@2packs4sure]

Yeah, but compared to the Hummer and Range Rover I'll take my chances with the Bronco @@revelation13_9

[@Rudenbehr]

@@revelation13_9And that’ll still be less compared to a GM, Bentley And Land Rover lol

Last time I saw a garage that large was at Jackie Gleason's house in Ft. Lauderdale when I landscaped his home. Gleason's garage would accommodate 6 limos.

The part where you roll the car back onto its wheels is how they handle all tows here in California..

[@Mr11ESSE111]

So much about EV reliability

You did a great job narrating. 👍

When I worked for a major car rental company (think Orange), we had a brand new Oldsmobile with engine problems. Under 50 miles and it had major clattering sounds. It didn't even make it through PMI yet. I don't know if it was a factory issue, or something happened in transport. Car went away and I'm guessing we got a new one to replace it.

[@lashbera]

How can a GM salesman sell people on GM products and sleep at night. Also, why would a guy keep a fire starting EV in the garage.

[@drewwho4512]

It was very interesting to watch how you were able to move this 9,000-pound behemoth that would otherwise not move. It pays to have the right tools and skills to manage all that weight in such an efficient manner. Well done, sir!

[@mj-dd2fb]

Another great vid, Dustin. Take care of that cough!

[@Towtruck_Dustin]

Thank You! I’m finally feeling better. The last few days have been rough.

[@billwilliams5889]

Watching all the stories on EVs, it seems obvious that the market for these things is way ahead of the battery and charging technology …. which is evolving every month but still not ready for Prime Time. Can’t see a woman standing outside for an hour+ at the Walmart parking lot waiting for her battery to get to 80%.
