Hi.... Anyone has experience of shipping a NEV to other states? I would like to know basically how much cost to ship it from Syracuse, NY to Washington DC and...
There are some people on the Sparrow_EV group who have done this. It does save some power but the usage on the brake lights is so small it does not have a...
I was wondering if anyone has ordered the 17" street wheels with tires from nevaccessories.com, and if they actually make the GEM go up to 35mph as claimed....
It seems to me that the speedsters on the list are leaving themselves open for all sorts of potential legal problems. Nevs are only street legal if the...
... Hogwash. The odds of getting targeted for going 30 or 35 mph in a funny little car (instead of only 25 mph) are extremely thin to say the least, unless you...
Just remember that the NEV is still limited to travelling on roads posted at speed limits of 35mph or less and crossing roads with speed limits posted at...
Perhaps I overstated the case somewhat . I'm sure the odds of being stopped by the police are almost nil.. If you have an accident however, your insurance...
I think people should modify their NEVs if they think it would make their lives a little easier. I would feel much safer driving 35 in a 35mph zone. I drive...
Just as a follow up, got the following response from NEV accessories: ====================== The brakes are not that good and you will not be able to lock them...
I totally agree with modding your NEV if it fits your purposes. Honestly, would a cop pull you over for doing 32mph in a 35mph zone? If you find a police...

In this world you never get something for nothing. Increasing the size of the wheel and tire will increase mass. You will probably require more Torque to...
It's a valid and good point Philip but I don't think the police are going to write in their accident report that your NEV is modified or that you were...
Hello All. I called the GEM manufacturer and they told me the GEM is equipped with a Spicer Differential about 10:1 gears. Next, I decided to call NEV...
If you are absolutely insistent on speeding things up has nobody considered getting a dealer or someone else to remove the speed limiting function on the...
I'm sure everyone has wondered if it could be bypassed or turned off. I spoke to a GEM technician and the governing component is embedded in the controller....
The dealer would be risking his dealers license as well as assuming other liabilities since removing the "limiting function" would mean he is placing an...
Josh This explains exactly my concerns You put it in a much more articulate way than I have ... he ... NEVs ... with ... limited to ... entire ... that ... ...
Josh, whether you like it or not, people are going to modify their NEVs just like they modify their cars, their bicycles, their homes. When people abuse their...
Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the NEVs group: There seem to be some variation in top speeds. What is the top speed of your 2002...

I was driving my Gem on a street that had a radar sign that tells you how fast you are going. My speedmeter said I was going 25MPH but the radar said I was...
Is anyone else having problems with getting their employers to allow employees to charge their electic cars? I've made a couple of inquiries with the...
I have heard of many instances where people have had a problem getting permission to charge their EV. From what other people have told me it appears that most...
I read somewhere that it costs about 25 cents to fully charge, even with California's rates, and the charger ceases to take electicity once it's fully charged...
I think the fear is that they might have to install large numbers of charging stations at a high capital cost. If they set a president by allowing one person...
Jaime, if you are in Calfornia you should have no problem. Ask the manager of the facilities people for a special parking place, a sign giving you special...
Someone from this group should be able to answer your question if you join and ask it there: http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/NEVs/?yguid=109391995...
