Keep the faith everyone! The car will arrive and it's worth the wait! FYI- about a week after your car arrives, you'll get an email from Nissan wanting you to rate the experience. I had to be really careful not to slam the entire system because when you get right down to it, most of the process...

Not that it will speed it up, but call the toll free number an express your frustration. At least they'll know you are not happy. Try to hold on! It's worth the wait! I picked up mine on February 29, 2012. Here are the dates I was given: Tuesday, January 31, 2012 Friday, February 3...

We are fine here in central Indiana, but they didn't do so well down south. Thanks for asking. You folks in Oklahoma know what can happen.

First night out, a teenager at the drive-up window at Wendy's leans out of the window and says, "What is that? Is that a LEAF?! That is so cool! I've been reading about these! Awesome!!". I coudn't have said it better myself. Next day I drive it to work, I had to give rides in the parking lot...

We picked up our new LEAF last night! Ours was the first LEAF delivery for this dealership so there was a bit of hoopla. Started out with 95 mile range showing. Temp outside was 45 degrees and windy. Whole trip was in Eco mode. First leg of trip home was 25 miles to the in-laws. Used heated...

Two trips is my fault. I'm juggling stuff to make it work. I did do financing tonight and got to sit in my LEAF! They're finishing up some detailing and I hope to pick it up tomorrow night!

My dealer called me last evening. He said he'd received an email and that my LEAF was to arrive last night on the truck. We're supposed to sign papers tonight and take delivery Wednesday night. I'm really to the point where I won't really feel it till I see it. I'll keep you posted.

Many many things I did not think about! It is easy to be short sided when you're the first one to have a need to plug in. You so rightly point out that, hopefully, this will be a growing issue. For me, I just want to plug in so I can pre-heat/pre-cool. Even though the cost is minimal, I will...

We don't use too many of them big words out here in Indiana! How ambareassing!! :oops:

As I work on developing an EV charging policy for my employer, I need some very general power usage data. I've spent hours reading posts on this topic and forgive me if this data has already been posted. I also know that there are many variables that impact the response to my question. Things...

As I anticipate the arrival of my new LEAF next week, I'm wondering if any of you had to get permission to plug in at your workplace? Have any of you helped develop policy for this at your place of work? Since I'm the first in my area to own a LEAF, my employer is looking to me to help draft...

I've been trying to find a simple answer to this question in the forum and the owner's manual, but no luck. It's probably in both, the lingo is probably over this simple Midwesterners head! :D I'm expecting my new LEAF next week. I have the AeroVironment Level 2 Electric Vehicle Supply...

After getting a phone call from customer service last week that a week of March 2 estimated delivery looked solid, the online date changed to week of Feb. 29. It stayed that way for many days until this morning when it moved closer to week of Feb. 27. I think we're getting close to reality.

For some of us, the first I ever heard of an "orphan" Leaf, was in this forum. I had already been waiting a long time and was well into the purchase and establishing a relationship with a local dealer before I ever knew there was a possibility for getting one elsewhere. If you've gone through...

Congrats to you as well! What will we all do when they all finally get here?!! I'll be drivin' mine!!
