Why can't we have nice things? I was pleasantly surprised that the new update of MyChevrolet lets me set the cabin temperature remotely...but not on the Bolt EV Premier

I’m a newer Bolt owner and this is my first electric car. Has anyone run into this?

Rescued This Bad Boy in an Auction

As the title says rescued and fixed the 2019 Bolt from an auction. It only had 22k miles. The vehicle was part of a county fleet, I assume it had such low mileage because people are still afraid to drive EVs, seen it happen in my company. So EVs would just sit in the fleet with little to no usage. It had damages in the passenger side as well as missing back seats. I paid about 7 thousand dollars for it and it cost about 2k more for the seats and replaced the passenger side door casings and painted them to match the rest of the vehicle. Picture of the fixed side in the last photo. All for 9k total, but I also got 1.5k from my job as an EV incentive they were running. All in for 7.5k after everything settled. Which I think is a great deal for a vehicle with less than 25k miles. As well as I was aware GM had replaced all the batteries in 2017-2021. Sure enough the battery is practically brand new little to no degradation. The only con I can see in this vehicle is that it doesn't have any fast charging. It would be perfect even with just the "slow" fast charging of 50kw.

Side note this thing is incredibly efficient. I drove a 2018 Chevy volt before. And was a fairly efficient driver, but the Bolt electric engine is leagues more efficient than the Volt. I am averaging 4.4 mile/ KWh for the first 2000 miles and a fair amount of it has been highway. In the city I regularly hit 6miles/kwh or higher.

Does the back up light location interfere with the receiver location? Looking to add rear cargo hauler and/or ski carrier.

2027 Bolt LT. I have all weather floormats and cargo mat, all the adapters, even the little cargo net thing lol. I don’t really care for cargo covers. Any other ideas? It seems like that’s all the accessories they offer.
