    New Leaf in Cedar Falls, Iowa

    We are in the Rochester MN area, not too far from you. Like you, I've also noticed that the heater/defroster takes a big chunk of the battery power. However, we live only about 10 miles from work, so it's not a big deal. I love my LEAF, and love the fact that I can pre-heat it from my phone...

    My Leaf replaces...

    We didn't really "replace" our old car - we kept it as a back up and to use for hauling big (messy) stuff and the dogs. But - driving the LEAF versus my old 2003 Toyota 4Runner (V8) has been saving enough cash on fuel costs to make the lease payment on the LEAF. I used to fuel the Toyo about...

    Julie from Minnesota - got my reservation in.

    I guess I've been busy..... I got my LEAF in late August and have been loving every minute. It's fun and easy to drive and it's awesome for all the running around that we do and for a work commuter. I live about 10 miles from work so I have no problems with range. My old car (which we still...

    Trying to buy a new leaf, but ran into some questions.

    Retired LEAF salesman here...... I got a LEAF myself this last summer. Leasing is definitely the way to go. LEAF technology is evolving rapidly, the cars will be different in two or three years and will very likely have better range. Why be stuck with the old one, when you can return your...

    Dealer visit. Well that didn't go so well.

    I work at a Nissan dealership in Minnesota. We didn't get any more Leaf info than what the general public was getting, until about early April Then we were asked to choose who would be the Leaf Sale Specialist (had to be a Sales Manager) and a Leaf Sales Lead (that'll be me) . We were also...

    New Leafer.

    I don't thinkyou'll be forced to buy a silver Leaf, when Nissan notifies you that your Leaf is coming, tell them that you'd prefer the green.

    Nissan to MSRP at a little over $37,000 in IL? Why?

    What Illinois emissions? This car has no emissions. I think this dealer is full of XXXX. Contact Nissan directly at 1-877-NOGASEV

    Will dealers be allowed to gouge us?

    The consumer does still pay for tax and license on a leased vehicle. The insurance is the same. Getting out of a lease is pretty much the same as what happens if you file for bankruptcy a return a purchased vehicle. It'll count big time against your credit. The consumer pays for...

    Plot your future Leaf location on this Map !

    Our house is also wired that way. We're in an earth home that was originally built by an electrical engineer so we're way "over wired". I think that's a good thing. Thankfully the box is located just a few feet from the garage wall so running the power for the charger should be a pretty easy...

    Julie from Minnesota - got my reservation in.

    leaf fan - 1000 mg of what??? We're lucky where we live, we're on heavily wooded acres, but rarely have mosquitos because there are no lakes or other standing water around. We're pretty much surrounded by corn fields. We are very careful to make sure that water doesn't collect anywhere...

    Julie from Minnesota - got my reservation in.

    I might be able to answer a few questions, but we have not had the full training yet, since we're not in an initial release area. I know Nissan has a great Customer Information phone line that can answer alot of questions - try 1-877-NO GAS EV I believe it will be at least a year (maybe...

    Minnesota - ordered a silver SL. I think it'll be at least a year before we see them in this part of the county (the Frozen Tundra). JV

    New Leafer.

    I think the free charging station was only in select locations. From what I read, many of those were in Washington state. JV

    Julie from Minnesota - got my reservation in.

    I got my Leaf ordered on Tuesday. I am also a Nissan Sales Consultant at a local dealership, so this will be especially exciting for me. It's going to be hard to wait for one! JV
