My family and I went on vacation from the deep south to Yellowstone on the E. There are 5 of us, but before I get this :evil: reaction, I had installed a lap belt in the middle of the rear seat about 3 years ago, and it has worked out great(my kids are young)...I go the lap belt at my local speed shop.
Anyhoo, I had used the installation instructions for a CB radio from EOC (thanks to all of those who posted the pictorials), and it worked out great.
I did notice that when I was headed up a grade that the tranny (in the D position) would not shift allow the rpm's to increase above a certain point, no matter how much throttle I gave it. It would get to about 3K rpm and wouldn't go above until I shifted into D2. I was a bit surprised that the tranny wouldn't downshift automatically and give more power...is this normal?
I do think if I did that sort of mt pass driving, a MT would be the choice...
I did see a number of E's on the road, including one Ecamper. Pretty cool...
