Thanks for the welcome... yes, I drive when we're together. Our budget won't allow for another one - even though "my" car is an older Tahoe @ 15 MPG... (It used to be hers - I gave up the pickup so we could keep a third row for those times when the kids multiply for a trip to who knows where...

Hi folks... new to the forum. Picked up a new 2013 Energi last weekend. Loving it so far - except for the warranty replacement of the 12v battery on purchase day +1. Hoping that doesn't prove to be an achilles heal, but chalking it up to the black car sitting on the lot in Texas heat for a while... We went with the PEH because of the rebates and the tax credit - probably not ideal candidates for the Energi otherwise, as we live in the boondocks and the first 30 miles of most of our trips is on the highway, but we're figuring out how to make best use of the EV mode, spending way less on gas than the '05 F150, and having fun in the process... it's my wife's car, officially, but I'm looking for an angle to steal it as often as possible :) Todd
