    West Texas Leafs

    Traded in my Leaf baby yesterday on a 2013 Ford C-Max Energi. My range had dropped significantly over the last 3 months and with winter coming on I would not be able to use the car much. I live in a rural area and commute 46 miles roundtrip for work. :cry:

    "Winter worthiness"

    During the only blizzard we had this year in West Texas, I had issues with snow sticking to my headlights; I had to stop and clear them once during my 13 mile commute home. Fortunately we don't have blizzards very often! If I still lived in Wyoming (where I lived last year), the Leaf as is...

    my vehicle service experience

    Pregnancy...

    Funny...I call my Leaf, "Baby". When she's plugged in: "Baby's gettin' fed."

    West Texas Leafs

    How many of us are there? I know there is one other 2011 Glacier Pearl Leaf in my town (besides mine)- I've seen it twice, most recently at the movie theater parking lot on Friday night. I think there are only 2 Leafs in my town...according to the Nissan place here. Any other Leafers in...

    The official "I got my Leaf" thread

    Got my Leaf yesterday! I love it! Although I have to get used to the gear shift- I put the car in "park" this morning and leaned over to get my coffee cup, only to find myself rolling backwards...I had shifted to "R" instead of pressing the "P" button! Der.....

    Adopting orphan vs. buying local logic

    I can understand people wanting to buy their Leafs from a local dealer- for relationship building and potential future service issues. I can also understand wanting to get a Leaf "now" vs. waiting. I am in the process of adopting a California orphan myself. My question to those wanting to buy...

    13 2011 LEAF ORPHANS AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW @ Mossy Kearny Mesa

    Just put a deposit on one of their Leafs- a 2011 Glacier Pearl SL with CWP/QC; even with shipping to TX, it's only a few hundred more than my 2012 SV was going to cost. (And after test driving an SL, I decided I wanted the backup camera after all!) So far, the long distance process has been...

    Cold weather observation

    Awesome! I'm looking forward to being able to try this out. It would be really nice not to have to run the heater while driving.

    2012 Silver Leaf SV arriving Bankston Nissan (DFW)~ 12/2!?!

    Just used the online chat through Nissan and got an est. delivery date of 12/26...a late Christmas present! Hope it holds! So the Bankston Nissan Leaf belongs to someone else...lucky them! Thanks all! PS. The Nissan online chat seems way more informative than the phone help. The phone...

    2012 Silver Leaf SV arriving Bankston Nissan (DFW)~ 12/2!?!

    ...Per autonation... Does this Leaf belong to anyone here? I am trying not to get my hopes up...my Leaf is scheduled for "month of December 2011" but I live in a small town in West Texas, so would they possibly send it to a larger dealership first then transfer it to my local dealer...

    Brakes- seem to require heavy foot? Different from ICE?

    This demo Leaf only had 23 miles remaining when we drove it around town, so maybe that was contributing to the different feel.

    Brakes- seem to require heavy foot? Different from ICE?

    Forgive me if this question has been answered elsewhere...I searched but did not see my precise question. I test drove a Leaf today with my spouse. I currently drive a Kia Soul and I felt like I needed to apply more force to the brakes on the Leaf than I do with my Kia. My husband thought...

    Is anyone else buying a 2012 SV (no Quick Charge)?

    I am seriously considering buying the 2012 SV. I live in West Central Texas, far away from the sexy cities with all the planned L3 charge stations. I don't have an L3 station anywhere within a reasonable distance. I plan to keep the car for 3 years then to move on to the next iteration...
