This morning I came outside, turned on the car, and was surprised to find out that the car magically found 25 miles of range while sitting overnight even though the temperature dropped 20F.

I drove the 25 miles to work and ended up with a project range the same as when I turned off the car last night. It will be interesting to see if the car found some more range while sitting in the office parking lot.

(This is exactly what threads on the Bolt Forum describe when the battery is learning its new capacity.)

You just earned about $10,000, tax-free!

Actually, AeroStealth questimated it from contemporary costs for a Kilowatt of Lithium Ion battery.
He got a call the other day from his dealer, and will be getting the 66-kWh for his BOLT.
He and his wife just did an 800+ mile trip with the defective pack, and will be cleared for trip to San Diego, CA, from New Mexico.
Regardless of the actual cost, you scored big-time!

I understand 10 large to be the price for a black market factory new bolt pack, slid under your door, so to speak. Wink, wink, nod nod

Just a wee cosmetic damage from falling off the lift gate.

so to speak

'Nod's as good as a wink'?
'I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspendies and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear papa'

You are mixing your comedians up. However nice catch on the obscure quote.

Comedians? or Faces?

What's the origin of the phrase 'A nod is as good as a wink'? This proverbial saying sounds as if it might be quite modern but it is in fact a 16th century phrase originating in England. The longer version of the phrase is 'a nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse'.

A Nod Is As Good As a Wink... to a Blind Horse - Wikipedia
Search domain en.wikipedia.orghttps://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › A_Nod_Is_as_Good_as_a_Wink..._to_a_Blind_Horse
A Nod's As Good As a Wink... to a Blind Horse is the third album by British rock group Faces, and their second album of 1971.

This appears to be identitarian anti-logger safety propaganda. Should be in The Lounge.

Monty Python, Benny Hill Show, and Mel Brooks humor would probably all be a fail today.

Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl, George Carlin....

Comedy itself is being 'canceled'.
