Ha ha, yeah, living in the midwest has its advantages.
I'm thinking the battery pack may be better than I had feared. When I was giving my sons a little introductory joy ride around the subdivision, I noticed the Charge/Assist indicator was showing a healthy assist when accelerating. The battery level indicator has been showing about four or five bars from being completely topped. I hadn't been able to pay too much attention to the gauges when I drove it home last night.
But I still haven't witnessed the Auto Idle Stop, where it's supposed to shut the engine off when you're sitting at a stop light. Maybe I've been shifting into first gear when stopped; which the owner's manual says will keep the engine running and defeat the Auto Idle Stop feature. I'll have to pay closer attention to my driving habits.
