Thank you, AGAIN. This has helped tremendously.
Is it the heat or the cold that does a number on the batteries?
I've got a good grade on I90 that I go up that's about 5 miles. Would this be something that would likely use most of the battery and cause that in balance issue to be accentuated since they may be depleted in such a scenario. Would it be better to get get something like MIMA in order to disable assist on such a hill to help preserve the batteries in the long term? Everything else that I do is pretty darn flat and easy.
When I test drove the car the battery level indicator was about 3-4 little bars from the top. Is this normal? Just want to make sure I'm not looking of something since I'm not familiar at all with hybrids (becoming more so right now, haha)
