      <title>Zapino Range</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;After the excursion with my wife today where we traveled about 20 miles, I went to go pickup my son at the pool which was a little over 5 miles away. I was still taking it easy in economy mode and staying around 25 mph. However, I did go through the neighborhood where there were a lot of stop signs. Coming back home, we got about 3 miles away and the range indicator starting to drop into the yellow when we accelerated. At 2 miles it was dropping into the red, so I started driving 15-20 mph. At about 1 mile away, the engine cut out because the indicator dropped below the road while accelerating. Coasting to a stop, I turned off the key and back on again and was able to continue. I then starting going really slowly, about 10 mph. The engine cut out a few more times, but we made it home. So i consider that we fully utilized all the available range.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Total distance today 31.2 miles. Not bad!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
