    I don't often let my battery get below 30 percent and don't often check my range so I thought I would do a 'how accurate is the GOM' test
    cold weather mid 20s to low 40s during test
    Only driver last month, predictable use
    38 degrees F 222 miles estimated range at start 100 percent
    37 degrees F 24 miles estimated range at end 12 percent
    174 miles driven
    So 11 percent low.
    GOM and odometer tracked almost perfectly except the one cold day where it was much colder
    Pretty sure absent that one day it would have been within a few percent
    No jumps or oddities.

    Then I forgot to plug it in!
    Drove 15 mile round trip to work
    It was angry with me on the ride home, hit turtle[though no apparent difference] a few miles from home.
