On long trips I just use it as a hybrid. You still benefit from 40+mpg and the gas tank is only 7 gallons so you fill up very quickly and only spend like 20 bucks each time. You also get regenerative braking which saves you a ton of money on brake pads. The clarity is a FANTASTIC highway cruiser and my passengers have also said it's quite comfortable. Up to NOVA and back can be done on half a tank on a full battery and I usually charge back up on arrival off any available wall outlet

You can still get one used! Consider the fact that there are only two trims for it so you won't get raked over the coals to get good features. It's basically an Acura interior and comes standard with heated seats, adaptive cruise and lane keeping, and car play/android auto

I've never had a problem like that. I just leave it

Sham walk the line is a test and you failed it by going

Got a clarity plugin hybrid and I charge it at home and leave a quarter tank of gas. Had that gas since new years!

Go at 1am and enjoy the empty bar and relieved bartenders. Before that go to town hall
