    What vehicle did you trade for your Leaf?

    Traded a 2004 VW Passat GLX with 70,000 miles. Only got 20 mpg at the best on premium gas. What a difference in fuel saving, quiet and smooth!

    I agree that very few seem to know about the Leaf. I was surprised at a meeting a couple came up to me and said their daughter ordered one in Washington state. I wonder if people know but are not curious. My friends seem to laugh at me and ask how long my extension cord is. I ask them how...

    If you are still looking for a charging station, consider the GE one. I really like mine. It works well and it is cool to look at with led all around the JT1772 holder. It is large but it function as the holder to wrap the cord around. If you buy from Lowes, it is $999 and sign up for their...

    yeswaydude, I know about L3 at the Sheetz in Lancaster but I have not stopped to check when it will be installed. I have a Charge Point account but few places to use it so far. I hope there will be more charging stations soon so I extend my area of travel. My insurance on the Leaf is $100...

    Thanks for the information for the Philly area. I guess there are no level 3 in PA? The only L2's I have in Lancaster or Lebanon counties are at the Nissan dealers. I am a week away from my one month check up. So far I have put on 650 miles. The check up is free and there seems to be no...

    I was fortunate that my Leaf came a week early. My delivery date changed several time but always in the beginning of February. It would change from the 6th to the 8th, the 9th and then back to the 6th. My Leaf was at the dealer on January 25th and picked it up January 27th. Driving the Leaf...

    Enjoy being ICE-less. Now you can learn far you can go depending on the outside temperature. I have a meeting tomorrow night that is 60 miles round trip. I am not sure I can make it with current temperatures. If it was summer, i suspect no problem.

    tps, Good things come to you when you are patient. Nice picture! When is delivery? I drove mine in eco this evening not so bad once you get going. Pulling out I prefer "D". I now have 300 miles driven.

    I just drove my Pilot first time since getting my Leaf six days ago. What a difference! I thought the Pilot was smooth and quiet. That is not the case as you realize after driving a Leaf. I notice in the Leaf I don't need to keep the radio as loud to enjoy.

    I got my bill from my electrician. The GE Station cost $949 from Lowe's, I mounted it in my garage myself, and my electrician wired for $242. Total cost was under $1200. AV quoted me $2300. I am so glad I took care of things myself. The GE station works great and I believe it will handle...

    It will go fast for you now. I travel over 150 miles now. I am getting use to all the screens and I even figured out how to download my cell phone numbers. I took it out on the highway and got to 80 easily but my wife asked me to slow down. I took it to show my ICE mechanic. He drove it and...

    Hang in there, and you will be surprised soon. I like the car very much. Everyone I show it to become very interested. I took a trip today of 50 miles over mountain and back. The gauge read 95 miles and when I got home is was 22 miles. I went from full bars to three bars at the end, but not...

    We picked up on Cayenne Red yesterday. What an experience! I believe the staff was as excited as we were to be the first at Lancaster Nissan. The serviceman was teasing that when my first service comes due, I should ask for an oil change my Leaf and see what the receptions says. With the...

    Tracking ships !

    I know that you, tps, were ahead of me. I can not understand how orders were handled. I ordered red, sl, floor mats, and storage organizer. Yours must be very close.
