It was an 'eye opener' when I saw the choices and prices you have in New York, New Hampshire, and Rode Island. Solar panel installation is not that complicated. Almost all the wiring is' plug & play'. The tools you'll need are probably in your garage. You can hire an electrician by the hour to...

Erik When I was looking at various 'Deals' in California, I noticed that the best deals were in the general San Francisco area . I'am in the LA area. We started getting the same deals after two to three weeks. It is alot more practical for you to look outside the Sacramento area and...

dm33 What do they do with a 'totaled' Leaf? Do you have any say in the demise of the Leaf wreckage ? Your survival says alot for the Leaf construction. Don't be put off by your new terms, they are pretty good, if there are no other fees.......Good Luck

Does anyone want to guess what the real residual value will be in two years. Consider these thoughts: 1) Many Leaf returns will be entering the 'used' market. 2) At this very moment, Nissan is researching current owners reactions to a heavier Leaf, with about 20% more battery. 3) Competition is...

Does anyone known of any junkyards for Leafs in Southern California ? (or at least where they send the wrecked Leafs).................Thanks

Dekay- 2 questions: 1) What is a "money factor" ? 2) There is no such thing as "0" down. If your monthly payment were closer to $200/month then your 0 down payment would be over $5000 in this situation (they have a formula that allows for several variables, but the same end...

Has anyone heard of the Leaf feature that allows the Leaf's power to be used to run a private home during power outages ? I read somewhere that some Japanese models were designed with the feature. If not, what would you need to use the Leaf's power on a home ?

Its been about four months, since I started my lease. One regret was that I wanted the lease as cheap as possible. While the QC was of little value, I took the 3.3 charger instead of the 6.6 charger... a mistake . I don't know if the State rebate is real any longer (lack of funds). I took the...

Good Holiday info................Thanks

My landlord- friend will not have a property that doesn't have a positive cash flow. He also works in medicine but in a registry capacity . About 30% of his net income is from his medical work. If I remember, his Score was about 625. I would have leased him 5 Leafs before I would have leased...

I took a friend to Torrance Nissan for Leaf/Lease deal. I had pretty good luck about 3 months ago. My friend's financial situation is outstanding: 11 houses that produce a $3000/mo. rental profit after all costs; has not missed a bill payment in over 9 years on anything; almost no debt (except...

:?: I'am just using my converted cable (30 amp/220 v) to charge my( 3.2kw) Leaf. What are the actual amps being drawn at below the 80% SOC ? How do you 'balance' these batteries? I think a full re-charge is about 6.5 hour, is that correct?.......Thanks :)

Maybe the Volt is the wrong way to go. How about a LEAF with a gasoline charger? This kind of Leaf could make it from LA to San Francisco non-stop.. My real point is that Nissan has probably thought of these combinations (Volt also), what are they waiting for? While I'am wishing too far into...

:?: I love my LEAF. I'am a newbie. Here is my beginner Question: Why do I need a EVSE station in my garage? I currently have a 30 amp socket that I connect to my Leaf through my modified 110v. cable. The cable was changed from a 110v. plug to a 220v. (30 amp) plug. My 3.3kw charger now...
