A comment an a question.
Comment - driving my leaf in the snow was awesome. Okay, I admit i have very low standards. My personal "car" for the previous 25 years has been (a couple of) Ford Ranger light pickups. They were not so good, but always got me to work and back in the Seattle area when there were snow days, but my place of work never closes.
This year, I'm a Leafer. It worked great, I drove from Kirkland area to Renton the first day of snowmagedon. Kirkland, Everett, Seattle, Kirkland the second day. And then a couple Kirkland/Everett round trips the next two days. Never had a situation where I felt unsafe, or couldn't really go anywhere. Oh yeah, had a trip to down town Redmond in there too somewhere where I hit a hill that had been shut down. Bet I could have made it!
This is all with standard tires. I'm sure it's not anywhere near as good a snow car as a 4x4 or heavier vehicle, but I don't want anyone thinking the Leaf is particularly bad when compared with any small front wheel drive vehicle. In fact, I suspect it's one of the better ones.
Question - anyone in Bellingham that can update us on the new QC. Seems like it must have been installed for a while now. Is it operating?
