    2018 Cargo Cover

    FYI I just ordered a 2018 cargo cover from oepartsmart.com. They had the lowest total delivered price when I googled for it, $193.18 to my door step. Still not exactly a bargain but hey.

    Please Report 2018 - 2020 Leaf Defects Here

    Thanks for the feedback, I guess I'll see if the dealer can do something about it.

    Please Report 2018 - 2020 Leaf Defects Here

    Of course! Duh. I actually tried that the day I got the Leaf but saw the word "on" written there and quickly decided it was on. Forgot it needed to be actively selected. Thanks!

    Please Report 2018 - 2020 Leaf Defects Here

    I have a Leaf SV, with the Tech package, made in March 2018. Only two non-critical issues that I've noticed: The backup camera doesn't display the steering wheel lines - the ones that move when you turn the wheel. Old 2011 Leaf had that, and the owner's manual for this model mentions it. I...

    GCR: Texas reinstates incentives for electric and alternative fuel cars

    Actually, the purchase must be made on/after September 1 2017, not 2018. Page 7 of this PDF, section 1.3 https://www.tceq.texas.gov/assets/public/implementation/air/terp/LDPLIP/FY18_LDPLIP_NoR_Final.pdf

    2018 Leaf replace leather cover on steering wheel?

    Totaled my 2011 Leaf recently :( and am thinking about getting a 2018 to replace it. There are no S level models for sale within 100 miles of me so it looks like an SV will have to do. I don't want leather on the steering wheel though, so I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to...

    Leafs Over Texas!

    Hi Texas mynissanleafers, I've been gone awhile simply enjoying my Leaf and not checking in, but I thought this was something I should pass on to y'all. Just took my 2011 Leaf to Baker Nissan South (in Houston) for it's 2nd annual battery inspection, first state inspection, scheduled...

    Thanks, Ingineer, I just shared this on Facebook. Have lots of musician friends on there who could benefit from this video.

    Chargepoint at Whole Foods

    I was at a restaurant the other night, seated by the front window. The restaurant has a bowl of fruit in their foyer, so customers can grab an apple, pear, orange, or banana on the way out. A nice gesture, I think. Well, soon enough a scruffy looking guy on a very nice bicycle rides up to the...

    :oops: Thank you Andy, I meant to put that video link in my post but I spaced out or something.

    Leafs Over Texas!

    Well, this program might be working. I visited the Tranquility garage again last Friday 9/14/12 (lunchtime again, when else would they unchain me from my desk) and noted about 20% of the dedicated spaces were empty. One was taken up by this Prius converted to a plug-in: And here's a closer...

    Houston man goes off the grid

    If you've tinkered with electronics and have lived in Houston for any length of time, you've probably shopped at Electronic Parts Outlet on Fondren near Westpark. Several years ago, the store owners started to build their off-grid homestead/country store near Columbus TX, powered by lots of...

    XM working for next 2 weeks

    I got something in the mail about that, too, with a handy channel listing on a small card. However, there's nothing they broadcast that I'm interested in, even for free! Am I picky or what? :D I tried listening to some of it though, and noticed the sound quality was rather poor. The mp3 320's...

    Capacity bar disappears, then reappears

    My capacity bar loss appears to be permanent now. I'll be reporting this as suggested in the wiki soon and making an entry in the spreadsheet. Also, on Friday, I managed to drive 64 miles with remaining miles on the GOM of 7. Dash reported efficiency of 4.5 m/kwh.

    What do SL & SV stand for?

    Hmm. Maybe I'll buy a chrome F and C, and change the lettering on the back to read LEFAFC.

    Capacity bar disappears, then reappears

    Thanks Stoaty! And the graph you did on that page is very interesting, too. I would fall near the lower end in terms of miles driven per month, and it seems I will soon be able to put a data point on it that fits the trend nicely. Sigh.

    Capacity bar disappears, then reappears

    FYI, I searched on "capacity reappear" and got nothing so I will assume no one has had this happen yet (life is too short to read through 300+ posts on the early capacity loss issue). Yesterday morning, after charging to 100% overnight, with odometer at about 9450 miles and < 15 months of...

    There will be 2 Leaf models by the end of 2012.

    Sneak-peek: My interest has reached a peak, because this has piqued my interest. So to speak. :D
