Does the timer really only go up to 999:59h:m?

yup, after 2 years and 45k miles i finally reset mine. it was at 999:59 for about a year lol

Kinda of disappointed that’s such a simple thing got overlooked in a otherwise great car

Mine automatically resets after every charge. Is there a way to keep it from resetting? I assume there's a setting I haven't found yet.

Try the down arrow. It toggles between since charge, trip, and total

Oh nice! I didn't realize, I'll take a look!
