EVs For Sale / 2000 Chevy S10 Extended Cab - Converted EV

« Last post by miodrag.zubic on March 21, 2024, 03:12:50 PM »

Just in case there is interest in the club below is "for sale" posting I just put up.

https://www.diyelectriccar.com/threads/2000-chevy-s10-extended-cab-converted-ev.210057/

As the posting says, I would consider parting it out if someone is looking at buying major components for a DC conversion and wants to buy used/proven (able to test) ones.

Contact me on miozub@yahoo.com if interested.

Thanks
Miodrag

Ken,

Great presentation; I really enjoyed it.  You mentioned that you found a good source that sold you the Tesla modules.  Can you share that?

Thanks!

Charging / Enel X Way JuiceBox 40-amp for sale $275

« Last post by tracey.mcfadden on January 18, 2024, 01:40:02 AM »

My very good friend Kevin O'Neil has a home charging station for sale. Great price for a great unit.  Here is what Kevin says about it:

I have an EV charger that I?m looking to sell.  It?s an Enel X Way JuiceBox 40-amp, plug-in model, with a 25-foot cable. A full description can be found at

https://evcharging.enelx.com/store/residential/juicebox-40

 I purchased and installed it 3 years ago.  It?s WiFi enabled, works fine, and lightly used.  I?m asking $275 for it.  I live in Aurora and the buyer can come by and pick it up, or I?m happy to drop it off at their house.

I can answer any questions you may have about the unit.

EVs For Sale / Re: 2018 Cadillac CT6 PHEV for sale

I live next door to Marc, and it's a nice looking car.  Lemon law cars are a drag to sell, so this is best suited to someone who plans to drive it for a long time.

Excellent explanation for the sale.  I wish I would have written as descriptively as you.  I had to sell a perfectly good Ford Focus EV 2012 to Carmax with a lemon record for one 1/5 its value.

EVs For Sale / 2018 Cadillac CT6 PHEV for sale

« Last post by marc.stettner on September 19, 2023, 11:18:12 PM »

Hello all, I am selling my 2018 PHEV 2.0L Turbo Cadillac CT6. This vehicle is in excellent condition but has a branded title. It has a known issue that all of these vehicles seem to have which is a slight hesitation during heavy acceleration at low speeds in eco mode. This is due to the software getting a bit confused when switching from electric mode to gas+electric mode for max power output. Since I am aware of the issue I just drive normally without stomping on the gas and avoid the issue. The issue also never occurs when driving on gas only or in sport mode. However, the original owner (who probably paid 70K)  complained enough that GM bought the vehicle back. A local GM Cadillac dealer bought the vehicle from GM and I purchased it from them at a nice discount which I am now passing on the future buyer. The Kelly Blue book on this vehicle for Private party purchase is $34,614 and I am asking $27,900. If you have questions call my mobile at 256.665.2655

Here is link to the listing on cars.com
