I have one very good reason why I would pick my 2017 Bolt over the new 2027 Bolt any day.
My stuffs paid off, yo.

662.20 update bricked my charging?
2027 Bolt LT. My partner came home and started the update when he parked today. Tonight he plugged in and it said it was plugged in, but not charging. The plug lock kept coming on and going off.
I took the car for a ride around the block and a “high voltage charging system” error with the red car and exclamation point came up.
We tried rebooting infotainment and that didn’t fix it. He’s currently disconnecting the 12v battery to see if that clears it. This is the first issue I’ve had with the car in the 3 months or so I’ve owned it, never any issue charging before this latest software update.

What's your favorite '27 Bolt EQ settings?
I'm not an audiophile but the Bolts speakers are objectively objectionable.
These are my favorite settings so far. Have you found any other EQ settings you like?

2027 Bolt
So after the included 8 year onstar basic trial subscription, it looks like you don't get access to the entertainment apps, and google maps anymore, or does that just mean they don't give you the cellular data, and you can still use your hotspot for your phone and the infotainment music apps will work, and will google maps offline work, and with hotspot will google maps get live traffic back?

2027 Bolt Charge port lock
I've been reading people posting they have issues on the 2027 Bolt where the charge port won't lock to the charge cable preventing the car from charging, and the workaround is to plug and tug, where you push all the way in and slightly pull out and then the charger cable locks, then it charges normally for AC and DC charging.
But for the ones that got the charge port replaced under warranty, did it work normally without doing any workarounds and no more issues as well with the delayed unlocking after?

Does your lifetime mi/kwh match your daily driving?
I bought a used car with a lot of miles and its sitting at a lifetime 4.2 miles per kWh. I can barely manage to get 3.7 on average during daily driving. I assume the previous owner did less highway driving than me but they managed to put 60k miles on it in 3 years so I'm not sure that can be true.
Does yours match up?

Comma AI vs Super Cruise for insurance reasons?
I've been recently looking at changing insurance because my rates have gone up 20% 2 straight years for auto. I noticed on one company (American Family) these terms: "No vehicle on the quote has modifications that alter its performance." I personally have Super Cruise because I was able to trade my 2020 with MSRP value into a 2023 EUV and even got some money back from GM lol I have the check, so I maxed it out with Super Cruise. so far, I've been able to get deals on Super Cruise, but it would be pretty annoying to pay full price for the capabilities (no lane change, mostly highways), but is anyone familiar if Comma AI vs Super Cruise could affect liability from your carrier given those terms?

Looking for used wiper blades from late style (post 4/2023).
If you replace your wiper blades and don't want them I would be interested in them for the end caps. I want a few as spares incase I break one while replacing the rubber blade. In Bergen County NJ area.

Bike rack options for 2027 Bolt?
I will likely get a hitch but don't want to this year (car is less than a week old!). I'd prefer a simple strapped rack.
It's just for carrying two kids bikes.

Headlights Question
This morning I drove my wife to the Airport for an early flight with our 27 Bolt LT. It was about 4 a.m., so it was dark out. I was driving with the headlights on, obviously. But I noticed the lights seemed to illuminate the road signs as they came into view or change brightness as I drove. Is this a thing/feature, or was I just operating on little sleep? Just wondering if this was a hidden feature, as this is by far the most advanced car we have ever owned, we are coming from a 2011 Kia Rio, and our other vehicle is a 2014 Highlander.
