Fuck me. I’ve been making my payments, it’s literally 6 months from being paid off. I called all the towing companies nearby and nothing. Now I’m gonna have to deal with cops and insurance and AAAAAAAA.

Has anyone had this happen before? Like does insurance normally pay for a rental?

I just wanted to vent ooooooooooooooh

Yeah I’ve only heard good things about it, especially considering the price range. Too bad it got discontinued.

2nded it's the most reliable and uncomfortable car you will ever own

I've put 50k on mine and have changed the oil once and just put on new tires. I did have to replace one battery cell at 85k miles for $2000. That's been it for maintenance.

The seats are really hard for me at least so I need aftermarket cushions for both back and bottom of the seat, my head is two inches from the top even though I'm 5'10", the ground clearance is two inches so you have to take speed bumps diagonally and at least on my model the backup camera is dog shit and climate control on pure electric mode isn't great

Still the best car I've ever owned though, it's just hyper optimized for fuel efficiency.

Lol pretty much

None of this stuff matters much though unless you drive a lot. Like if you have a super commute of 1h+ each way or drive for Uber or something.
