    Leaf Plus - Why so low inventory?

    There are a bunch of Leaf Pluses out here in Denver. I was at a Nissan dealership today and saw a dozen sitting in a row. No regular 40kWh ones though. Well, two, and the one I wanted (a black SV standard) was sold minutes before I arrived. In Colorado, we have a $5000 state tax break, a $3500...

    2017 Leaf to offer V2G: Thoughts?

    I want It! By the end of the year we will live in a Net Zero capable home with enough solar PV to power the house (all electric including GSHP for heating and cooling) AND still have enough to charge the Leaf! If the 30kW car battery could be used to power the house during the non-sunny hours...

    Speaker upgrade

    Can anyone provide advice for upgrading the door speakers in a 2016 Leaf SV? No car stereo store is sure how much modification is needed or even which size (5-1/4 or 6-1/2 inch) will fit.

    New owner & charging question

    So I just took possession of a 2016 Leaf SV as well. I have a 12k/yr lease and I'm sure I'll be using every mile of that allocation. I've been shopping for an ESVE thinking I'll need to put in a 220v line and get one installed in our garage. So far I've only been trickle charging save for a...

    So I Went to the Dealership Yesterday...

    I shopped around the internet sales folks at front range CO dealerships. I had to replace the 2012 SV that was at the end of our lease. I wanted the bigger 30kW battery at around a similar price. I was paying 204/mo. I wanted a lease. Eventually I took a 220/mo lease on a 2016 SV and paid less...

    Door Speakers & Subwoofers in my Leaf

    So 5-1/4's then? My sales person just showed me 6-1/2" component systems today - I guess she was wrong! Any adaptor plate needed to bolt the Infinitys' in? You picked high sensitivity 4-ohm speakers which should be the loudest among aftermarket options, is there enough volume without an...

    Post Your Order Details Here

    So my 2012 Leaf SV lease is up in October and I just made my final payment. Last year I extended 1 additional year because I had yet to lose even one bar of battery capacity. But now It seems is a good time to get a fresh car with fresh and slightly larger battery, faster charger and quick...

    Rumor: Leaf 2017 to get 40kWh

    A salesperson at a south Denver dealer told me to wait for the 2017's. He mentioned a change to the fascia, improved cargo capacity and a 35kWh battery. No other dealer seems to want to say anything to back this statement. He is right about one thing though, the crazy deals available now on a...

    Walgreens chargers no longer free?

    Wow, I didn't think the general tone would be "good for them". I can easily switch my paradigm to getting a prepaid access card and using the chargers less but still using them to do out of town trips. Perhaps if initially SemaConect had me sign up, use a card to access the chargers and THEN...

    Walgreens chargers no longer free?

    I got the prompt to "please scan card" when I pulled up the the Federal Heights store. When did this happen? I called the manufacturer and found out this was a decision by the owner and not Walgreens. The quote I got was it'll be 49 cents/kWh and you have to purchase a card with $20.00 on it...

    We applied and got a substantial rebate. There is a schedule under alternative and renewable fuel vehicles on the state of Colorado website.

    Cost of Solar System for Charging Leaf

    1: Figure how how many kWh of electricity you have used. If you aren't sure, use the formula (.34 x miles) over a given period. Some calculators just ask you for your electric bill and figure the power automatically. This won't work if you only want to offset a part of your bill. 2: Use a solar...

    New Leaf Leaser

    No I'm not surprised by the short distances. I was only driving my old Mazda ~5k miles/yr when I sold it. Its fine actually because we moved to Denver from Longmont FOR the shorter, bikeable commutes. So yeah, its all good. I think I'm gonna need to push the driving distances to prove to my more...

    New Leaf Leaser

    Hello, I'm a N Denver resident and just purchased my Black SV 2 weeks ago from Go Nissan in Thornton. I must not drive much because I've only put 350 miles on it but we're using it for nearly everything. I think this car will make me lazy. I have absolutely no qualms about driving to the store...

    $199/mo for SV, 24mo, 12k miles -- too good to be true?

    Hello all, First post here so please give me some slack! I just leased a black SV here in Denver for that 199/mo, 1999/down deal. Luckily I'd texted the deal to my phone from Nissan's website because the salesman didn't believe me! To that they tacked on a 499 handling fee for a total of...
