I have seen a Hummer charge around 300kW, but not 350Kw Did you condition the battery for charging? What was your state of charge? As for your charge sample, the issue could be the charger or grid in that area, or the truck. I would sample a series of chargers and see if you see different results . In an OTA software update GM said they will add instrumentation that will tell the owner how much the BMS is calling for, so you can see what the truck is asking the charger for. Also should check plugshare for the specific charger, people having good luck there or bad luck?My first trip in the truck. Stopped at a 350 kW DC charger. 160, then down to 55, or so. Does anyone ever see 350 kW?
Start at or below 10%, unplug before 70% if you want to optimize charge time. Always use the built-in google maps to navigate to the charging station, or force it to precondition 45 minutes before you plan to charge.Who was that rapper/home remodeler?
ICE baby. Don’t get me wrong. Love the truck, but I bought “100 miles in 10 min”. Not, “ go shopping mf’er, you’re gonna be here awhile “
Ya, that is true of nearly all EV's but need more data to see what happened in your charge session, like beginning SOC, Temp, Battery pre condition, Charger locations (some locations cannot fully power the chargers yet). I tend to look for the newer style chargers, the original EA stations can be more buggy than the more recently installed ones.Start at or below 10%, unplug before 70% if you want to optimize charge time.
This one's going on Cars and Bids soon. Seems to be par for the course so far. One dislike and off to the auction.Who was that rapper/home remodeler?

It will do 100 Miles in 10 minutes when you are in a low SOC.Who was that rapper/home remodeler?

When you can double up your money so easily, its hard to justify not selling... If I get mine soon, will sell it, and use the funds to buy a Lyriq, and GMC SierraEV, and buy a few cases of old Bordeaux first growths with the change. haha!and that was nothing at you @Dark-Fx . It's wild to me now that money is involved how excited we all were to own ours, go off-roading, tell stories and share experiences to now one problem it's gone. Just not quite how I saw deliveries going and our discussions.
My thoughts were to keep it initally but when they production number were announced and they actually started selling I quickly changed my mind. This will literally buy you another vehicle for 0. I have a SUV 3x ordered, so may use this to pay for that hopefully.When you can double up your money so easily, its hard to justify not selling...

Charge speed will continue to increase, I’m not sure what the theoretical maximum is though. We will also see battery technology improving and I’m guessing at least a doubling of energy density in the next decade or so.I’ve got 3k miles on it and won’t be selling anytime soon. My complaint is not hummer specific, just ev in general for longer trips. The technology isn’t ready for prime time, unless maybe you’re retired and don’t mind waiting on a charge. I’m sure at some point we won’t be able to use gasoline to travel
No big deal, buy a $125K vehicle (including tax and fees). sell for $225K you would have a $100K short term capital gain, and have to add that to your taxable income. So, depending on your income level, you pay the taxes, but still have substantial gains.It really is not surprising actually to see almost all new adopters he going to auction with them so quickly. I believe most on this forum will flip theirs as the ones who will keep them are the ones who already have delivery and do not post on this forum. Rather or not these people are paying taxes, insurance on a 110k vehicle or not. I assume you would have some sort of capital gains tax as well. These actions have consequences which I would not want my name on.
However you sell a 110k vehicle for 250-300K and I'm the buyer. I am reporting the seller to the IRS for capital gains. 100 percent
True, so your 100k is actually 70-85k, that is a good amount of money but you are not going to retire on it and if you are buying this to make that amount of money then you probably shouldn't be buying this to begin with. In effect all you are doing is flooding the market with used Hummers which will have a negative impact on resale values moving forward, It is a surplus verses demand thing. Once the surplus hits a point you could have 100s of Hummer EVs listed for 250k and that is what there will be just 100s of them listed for 250k and none selling. I have seen the same things happen with Raptors and Z06 Corvettes.No big deal, buy a $125K vehicle (including tax and fees). sell for $225K you would have a $100K short term capital gain, and have to add that to your taxable income.

Yes, eventually supply will balance with demand and residual values will drop, but I think its going to be a while for the Hummer EV as demand far exceeds supply.True, so your 100k is actually 70-85k, that is a good amount of money but you are not going to retire on it and if you are buying this to make that amount of money then you probably shouldn't be buying this to begin with.

Seller here. I put in a reservation for the SUV after I sold my pickup. They are that good. I might not have sold it if it didn't command such a big premium right now. But I also really don't need two pickups, the SUV will be for my wife most likely.Once there are more Hummers on the market they will probably be selling for way below the MSRP because they made too many and the people who initially took delivery all sold them off to the REAL buyers of the truck
