Green is nice though. You might have other Leaf owners jealous wondering why they missed the green option when they bought theirs.

Sigh. The disposable car. Eventually the subsidies will stop *ahem Trump* and it will no longer make sense to toss the 3 year old BEV for a new one. Then we'll see.

Hey great news. I just got notified in my renewal that State Farm has reclassified my vehicle and the premiums went down!! I'll be saving over $3/month!! :roll:

Wow. that is some droppage. Was it sub 12 bars when you purchased it? Mine was 64.45 Ahr when I bought it back in Dec. 15. As of this past Dec, it is 58.154. I saw a sharp decline over the hot summer. I would think in MA you would have cooler temps and not see such a rapid loss.

So what made you go through with it? Are you thinking you have a shot at a warranty replacement? Did the results give you any insights that you didn't have before?

That is more in line with what I was expecting. If they had charged me $40, even though the info may be useless to me, I probably would have done it just to maintain the warranty. Even though I still think it unlikely that I'll ever qualify. thanks for the info, all. Yeah, I've owned the...

I'm sitting in my local Nissan dealership getting the airbag recall done. I asked them how much it would cost to also do the annual battery check. I haven't had this service done before. I understand it is covered for the first two years of warranty, but I purchased an out-of-warranty Leaf...

Yeah, good point. What's your address?

wow, that's insane! I'm on State Farm and I saw an increase as well with my Leaf (coming from a Prius), but only in the $40/month range. I pay $118/month for a '13 Leaf and a '16 Highlander. The Leaf costs more than the brand new Highlander, btw. I did get a quote from Geico recently that...

Only $400 short of the full amount you would have gotten under the program. Not bad! We had a similar program in the US several years ago called "Cash for Clunkers". FWIW, I have been on the list for the recall part for 3 weeks with my dealership. No timeline given. Why can't you just go...

I think range anxiety at first is very normal. Especially if you have an experience like the one you had where you felt like you weren't going to make it home. I had one of those with my wife shortly after I got my Leaf and it was nerve-wracking. Ever since then, she has been very reticent to...

Well that was kind of anti-climactic.

Yeah, it looks like it's all decline. I did some 100% charges, drove it right away. No change and in fact the decline continues. My latest numbers: AHr; 59.887 SOH: 91% Hx: 89.51 I think my best course of action at this point is to stop obsessing over it. Clearly it isn't going to rebound...

Hi Leafers, I purchased my Leaf in Nov. of 2015. It was off lease from a cool climate (Chicago) and only had 14K miles on it. I was very pleased with the early readings I was getting from LeafSpy. Here's a sampling from Jan (Date/AHr/SOH/Hx): 1/4/2016 63.83 97% 96.88 1/4/2016 63.758 97%...

Dude, you are trying to dissuade the OP from buying a used Leaf, you can't get sensitive about someone picking apart your post to argue the opposite. That's what a forum is for. It wasn't meant as a personal attack. There is a big difference between "don't buy a used Leaf" and "don't buy a...
