His/her math is fine. He/she is financing the "total quote/price accepted $29,443.70" plus "taxes $2,189" and pocketed the rebates (which are paid to the owner).
Hi folks,
I've read through the recent posts on this forum and since I think my question is a bit different from the others, I started a new thread.
My question relates to battery capacity calculated from the instrument cluster, versus rated battery capacity. I am not asking about energy usage...
I sent mine about three weeks after yours and haven't gotten mine. I guess I still have at least that much longer to wait, based on your experience.
Did you follow their checklist of stuff to make sure you do to avoid delaying your processing? Simple stuff like making sure to put the VIN into...
Hi folks, I'm going to be attending a get-together of old colleagues in Fullerton next week and would like to bring my Leaf. I can't get back home without a charge, so I'm looking for some help on finding a convenient charger to downtown Fullerton. No maps seem to show anything right there in...
Any news on this? I'm planning a trip to Fullerton next week and would like to use it if it happens to be operational. I searched around on the Web for news and didn't find any; that probably means not operational yet, but doesn't hurt to ask.
That is indeed the project's Web site.
I wanted to take a minute to amplify what the Web site says: Transportation engineers like me use the data daily to forecast traffic. The data from this project and others like it are critical to properly planning transportation infrastructure investments...
I was being a bit facetious but you're right about cars that drive themselves, of course. I clicked the California link to check on something though and the article does say someone needs to be in the driver's seat as a failsafe; so the original poster's idea of sending the car home for his wife...
Why stop there? There was this show called Knight Rider where the car actually drives itself, no Internet connection required. Heck there probably wasn't even Internet back then and that car still got around just fine. Maybe something like that car would suit you.
I made this a code research exercise for myself, to satisfy my curiosity. It turns out this is allowed by the National Electric Code, article 210.4(C) Exception No. 2. My NEC Handbook has an illustration. All conductors must be opened simultaneously by the branch-circuit overcurrent device (i.e...
That's a great idea. Although my two little boys are very far away from teenage years, I will definitely come back to this. Seeing as how they're already riding in an EV, they'll already be used to the idea; and maybe by then EV's will be commonplace.
Anyway, I came to this thread today to ask...
I just went through the same exact process 2-3 weeks ago. They shipped the day after the transaction, and emailed me a tracking number at the same time. I presume you sent in your release form that you have to sign, right? Without that they won't ship your new unit out.
On the other end of the...
I was asked to copy this post over from the other thread on this subject; here is the info I posted elsewhere.
I tried this level three charger out yesterday. I wanted to write a post that consolidates the information I needed to have before going, as well as providing some additional tips...
I tried this level three charger out yesterday. I wanted to write a post that consolidates the information I needed to have before going, as well as providing some additional tips. That way maybe other new leaf owners can use this information in the future.
Before You Go
Before going, I watched...
If you're running a plug-in hybrid discharged, you get no mileage benefit from the battery pack, except incidental charge from regenerative braking. So the mileage is lower than a standard hybrid not just because of some extra weight but also because you're getting no opportunity to run on battery.
