One-Pedal Driving

used to at the Enchanted Forest out old Rt 40

Still there. 

Sounds like a way to make bad drivers worse.

on an unrelated car note:

anyone use a key fob blocker (a little pouch to block the signal of your keyless entry device)?

or temporarily disengage the fob by clicking a series of buttons?

call me old fashioned but I miss my old metal car key.

The battery on my fob goes after about 3 weeks. Half the time I have to touch the fob to the damn ignition button, which defeats the purpose of having the damn thing. I hate it. They tell me it's because the fob is constantly communicating with the car and the battery drains. He said to put it in a metal box when I'm at home and it will save the battery. Good call on the blocker pouch.

Last time I rode the bumper cars was about 5 years ago at Santa's Playground, an amusement park in New Hampshire. I think I rode it for 20 rides on a row, which was a great distraction from the fucking Christmas music, elves, and 30' crucifix with life size nativity scene. The ceiling started smoking and they closed the ride, so I had to again contend with the Christmas in August craziness.

I have one of those switchblade key fobs. I don't know anything about one pedal controls that aren't connected to a cam.

Accidentally went in the ocean with rental car fob in my pocket .

You don't want to do that.

yeah so you guys probably know this but is my first keyless car --- the fob continuously broadcasts a signal, so the fob battery will eventually wear out. Supposedly after 2-3 years. And if you store your fob close to your car it can potentially drain your car battery as well, since they are communicating continuously.

I just watched a you tube that says if you hold down the unlock button and push lock twice -- it will turn the fob off. This was for a Toyota. I haven't tried it yet.

I've got one pedal driving on my car, it's fantastic. Release the accelerator to slow down on curves, then accelerate through the turn. Almost like downshifting. Almost.

Brakes should last 100,000 miles, but there are situations once in a while where you need the brakes.

So you can't coast?

If I see a stop coming up a mile down the road with a slight downhill and no traffic, I usually lift and coast to the stop.

I guess you can't do that in a one-pedal-able vehicle.

key fobs are a pain in the ass for people that like the ocean.

My buddy is only 5-1 with super short legs. He gets in the car and pulls the seat all the way up so his belly is on/in the wheel so his feet can reach the pedals, barely.

Then he proceeds to drive an automatic with 2 feet.

I don't like riding out with him.

Your buddy must go through brake pads pretty fast.

And yes, you can coast with one pedal driving, I do it all the time, your foot just barely touches the accelerator and you're coasting.
