    Should I purchase a 2014 i?

    It's hard to say which depleted my range over the winter the extreme cold coincided with the tire install, overall I saw a loss in range of about 15%, the driving I do is about 30% highway, and you can get going as fast as you want but one day you may need to stop faster! snow tires are proven...

    Lookinng for i-miev for Export to Canada

    Try peterborough mitsubishi, I know for certain that as of last weekend they had a "2013" on the lot, and from the fact they are still advertising in greenzine magazine (local publication) they plan on carrying the 2014, PS it's white not black!

    Lookinng for i-miev for Export to Canada

    Just a suggestion rocky but do you know anyone in Ontario that could buy one for you and get the $8200 tax credit, I've seen a few 2012's at Oakville mitsubishi that are priced at $21k plus tax (%13) and then the rebate is taken off the total $23730-8231=$15499 and that's if you pay the asking...

    Upgrading the heating system to bioethanol or Diesel fuel

    I took a look at the heaters mentioned, they appear to be espar (eberspacher) knock offs, judging by the poor English in the description I would recommend that you follow the espar instructions to install, I've got a webasto unit installed in mine and I guarantee you will not regret having a...

    Anyone thinking of purchasing the new/improved 2014's?

    I have a need for a truck, I hate to admit it (I do actually use it as a truck) and I commute 50 kms each way to work, I wish I could live closer but economics and the need for a few acres to roam free keep me from living in the city perimeters or suburbs, my solution was to buy a new non...

    sorry clarity of thought is not my strongest suit! i will try this in point form and hopefully supply enough "known" information, i had brought up the possibility of donating my clipper creek to the facility in exchange for use of the evse, my boss was positive but noted that government...

    Mitsubishi does not want to sell EVs in the USA

    AlfredWAB I'd really like to know what kind of truck you saw at the show, getting an electric truck with a range extender is a dream of mine , the oi' f150 would hit the market fast, that truck sounds like the ICEing on the cake for this dead Dino hater!

    Upgrading the heating system to bioethanol or Diesel fuel

    I must say after living with the car during the longest and coldest part of the winter without aux heating (multiple days below -20c) I was not using the car to its full potential, my wife and daughters refused to go anywhere with me due to the fact that even though I had it set on full heat it...

    Upgrading the heating system to bioethanol or Diesel fuel

    I purchased my webasto as new old stock it's just by luck that I found it on kijiji, as for the electric heating efficiency I really don't see too much extra use, the webasto is already hot when I go back to electric so I guess it would draw some extra to keep up the heat but nothing noticeable...

    What do you think about DC charging stations?

    I'm personally all for any extra opportunity to use my "I" I live in a rural area and wish I could eliminate any unnecessary use of my ICE truck, if there were dc charging stations at all fuel stops that would cut my use of the truck by 2/3, for example tonight I'm heading to the cottage and...
