Ben's Citicar

[bennelson]

I just got word that the Citicar was just loaded into the back of a truck.

Inside was a classic Jaguar and some really fancy motorcycle.

Apparently the money the freight company gets for moving my car is just gravy.

YEAH! can't wait to see the progress. You aren't going to neglect your other EV's are you?

No, I am not.

Last night, I drove the Electro-Metro over ten miles and clocked the recharge energy usage. It came to about 280 watt-hours per mile or roughly 130 eMPG.

I was working on the motorcycle this past Sunday, as it was having really strange problems. I tracked it down to that bad battery post. Worked great all summer for a home-brew repair, but it has finally failed. Time to take it to a battery repair place!

Recumbent exercise bike? Exercising while laying down, what a concept, now how to get paid for not working.

Nice work getting the car Ben.

If MetroMPG has his way, you may see one yet...

My Citicar came with sun-baked seat belts that were 'crumbly' at best. I replaced them with a set from a Jaguar (about the only ones at the junkyard that were the right length).

Perhaps not an Electric Jag - but that 1% surely improves the performance...

Yeah, 'cause he's already got a fancy motorcycle!
