I just bought an iMIEV

I just bought a Mitsubishi iMIEV electric car.

I got it in south-west Chicago and drove it home, through the first snowstorm of the season, using CHAdeMO public quick-charging to my house 40 miles west of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Here's the full write-up:
iMIEV Cross-Country Snow-storm Road Trip





It was pretty cold, but totally do-able, thanks to the power of Quick-Charges and Coffee!

2012 Model Year Mitsubishi iMIEV - all electric
62 Mile range.
$6,995
30,000 miles (This is really high for these cars. Many have 8-15K miles on them.)
CHAdeMO Quick Charge Port
Alloy Rims
Fancy Stereo and Backup Camera
