    Looking for owners in JUNEAU, AK

    Juneau has got to be THE quintessential place to own a LEAF; you'd be hard pressed to drive more than 20 miles any any one direction, the year round climate is perfect for battery health, and a full charge prior to boarding the ferry allows a visit to just about anywhere else in the state for a...

    LEAF Insurance prices too high?

    Randy, is the @287 for both cars or for each car? If it's for both, that's an unbelievable deal!!

    Automatic Door Lock changes

    Can anyone summarize the different locking/unlocking options available? It would be nice to know all the choices, divided into 4 categories: 1) factory default for the three model years to date 2) changes owners can make themselves (using the 20 second button-holding Ray mentions) 3) changes...

    Steal Your Battery program: Any news? Hello Nissan?

    TYOB, the rebuttal to that goes something like: "With all this selling and liking going on, maybe we don't have to worry so much about the whole battery replacement issue after all; people are buying the darned things and isn't that the whole point?" :) Though I'm sure that virtually everyone...

    LEAF outsold all other Nissan models in 4 cities in April

    I'm not questioning your comments, but can either of you point me to the source(s) for these statements. I'm not very good at figuring out how to word online search requests.

    LEAF outsold all other Nissan models in 4 cities in April

    I suspect that the LEAF was the top-selling Nissan brand in only ONE market. Note that the pertinent clause in the sentence drees quoted applies only to San Francisco, not the other four cities listed after that. There's still a long way to go, but that's certainly an admirable start. Glenn

    Point Person(s) at Boardwalk Nissan?

    The go-to guy at Boardwalk Nissan used to be Brendan Dolan. He was a very enthusiastic LEAF and forum supporter waaay back in 2011, sold many of us our first electric car, and was responsible for hosting the second ever BayLEAF meeting at the dealership in April of 2012. If he's still in their...

    How wide do the doors swing?

    JB, With both front doors open, our 2011 LEAF is about 148 inches from door tip to door tip. Specs show the car is 70 inches wide, so that means each door needs 44 inches of unobstructed space to fully open. Hope this helps, Glenn

    email from blink $100 credit

    For all of us who "scold" newbies here on MNL for their misuse of the word "charger" as well as those of us for whom Blink is a four letter word... :roll: :roll:

    I test-drove a 2013 "S"; Is it too close to call?

    I think you're being just a bit optimistic. You need to factor in something for electricity to run your new LEAF, unless you truly mean to ignore the increase in your home electric bill and the juice provided at your workplace, regardless of who's paying for it. Based on your simple calculations...

    Just saw this post and am curious why, and to whom, you promised not to share numbers? Glenn

    7,500 Tax Incentive Carry Over

    A bit confusing, Matimal are you buying or leasing? Others may know better, but I'm pretty sure you don't get the $7,500 tax benefit if you lease, so your question becomes moot at that point anyway.

    Another poorly headlined EV article

    Carolyn Lochhead, The San Francisco Chronicle's Washington correspondent, wrote a fairly innocuous piece for today's SFGate: http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Electric-cars-battle-for-hearts-wallets-4286781.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Even though it's tantalizing titled...

    Anyone install a Trailer hitch on a leaf yet?

    Nate, that's an early photo of Phil's (Ingineer's) Propane-Powered combination 30kW Quick-Charger/Range Extender. http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6847&hilit=propane&start=84" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Glenn

    SF bay area Blink service?

    Yep! We got our SD card swapped out this morning and Tom did an awesome job cleaning the display screen! Blink 2.0 is now up and running, whatever that means.

    My LEAF became a TARDIS :-)

    So it would appear that, in addition to your Earthly HOV stickers, you've also got a parking emblem from the Planet of the Spiders...
