As a new shopper for a used Leaf, should I be looking to get a device to connect to the Leaf's computer to get the battery SOH, etc, or is that needlessly nerdy?
Or look through the large LeafSpy thread. I have this OBDII adapter and it works great with my Samsung smart phone, note not for Apple, you need a WiFi adapter to work with Apple and they are a bit more expensive.BuckRimfire said:Jeez, all the devices listed as supported by Leaf Spy have a lot of one-star reviews on Amazon! I'd better buy two or three in hopes of getting one that works!
BuckMkII said:OK, I have Leaf Spy Pro on my phone and my LELink ODB2 should arrive today, so I'm all set to go Leaf shopping, possibly this weekend. What battery SOH would you look for as a cutoff?
Or, more complex issue: how would you use SOH to negotiate price with a dealer?
I like the looks of that trailer, but have you actually found any place that rents them :?alozzy said:I'm thinking about renting this trailer for camping:

Guessing it will really limit range if I'm going up hillls though
Yep, I figured it was for a bike rack. Leaf owners probably aren't the most likely owners of PWCs, although towing a jetski a few miles from home to a ramp is probably one of the towing jobs a Leaf would be most suited for.alozzy said:Nothing yet, just a bike rack )
What's wrong with Explorers? Other than the roll-over risk typical of cheap pick-ups and SUVs...baustin said:they won't rent for towing on certain vehicles (like Ford Explorers).

U-Haul has chosen not to rent behind this tow vehicle based on our history of excessive costs in defending lawsuits involving Ford Explorer towing combinations. This policy is not related to safety issues. This is an unusual circumstance for U-Haul – we have built our success for over 60 years by saying 'yes' to our customers. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and are committed to working with our customers to find alternative options to help with their move.

Those tires though would have a lot of rolling resistance but, with different tires, rolling resistance could likely be significantly reduced.
