30 Days, 2112 Miles, Loving the Rav4 EV!

Today is our first month anniversary with the Rav4 EV. Drove 2112 miles in the first month. Who says you can't have an electric vehicle as your only vehicle?  We're loving it more than we thought we would. There are a few things I miss moving from the BMW to the Rav4 EV and those have been discussed before...however they are far outweighed by the extra range, larger cargo area, seating for five and lightening fast acceleration. Yesterday I was taking two friends from work up the hill at Universal Studios. We were driving approx 30 mph up hill, I hit the Sport Mode button, gave the accelerator a slight tap and proceeded to do a burn out...not after stopping but while going 30 mph uphill with three adults on board! Their faces lit up just like the tires. This thing is a blast and that's the best part of all. You get all these other attributes with the Rav4 EV and yet it maintains the most important one of all, it's a blast to drive!
