    Your car is f***ing gay!

    Comment by a friend. He sees my Leaf parked in the street. Says he, "Does it work?" Says I, "Well, no actually. I bought it for the looks!" I'm sure someone can think of a better comeback than mine. Any ideas?

    Should I hurry up and get a new pre-lizard LEAF?

    I somehow think that everything has a trade off. This lizard battery may, IMO, have a trade off in that even though it will degrade slower in warmer climates, it will prove to be less durable in colder climates, which will be a disastrous PR event. So they need to really get it right before...

    How to charge a Nissan Leaf S to 80%???? Please help

    BTW, I have found that the time the car computer says it will take to charge to 100% with the 6.6kw charger, is off by 200%! If it says it will take 2 hours, it takes just 1 hour, etc. I don't know why, but I have a Clipper Creek CH40, and I cannot think of any reason why it should be so much...

    Long Vacation - Advisable to be plugged in all the while?

    Well, I tried it out last night, j1772 plugged in with the battery tender and it was NOT able to keep up. I have the Battery Tender Jr. which gives out .750 amps, and after 12 hours the red light was still on. Next time I will try not to have them both plugged in at the same time. Oh well...

    Long Vacation - Advisable to be plugged in all the while?

    Just a question I can't seem to find an answer to on the threads on this topic. I try to top off my 12v battery with a battery tender. (I made an extension to the wires and have it going all the way to the regular charging port so I do not need to pop the hood every time.) Is it ok to have the...

    The official "I got my Leaf" thread

    Just picked up my Leaf SV gun metallic grey. Looks very nice but does not make a bold statement. Just like I prefer. I visit parents and families and want to make a nice but conservative statement. Most people don't even notice it though. I suppose here in Montreal they just think "car". It's...

    Clipper creek HCS40 install

    I have the same CC unit. It is graded as indoor-outdoor, it is ok to put it outside. I would suggest to get the holster for the plug to protect the open end of the plug from the rain and snow. I put mine outside as well, as I have no garage at all. Here in snowy Montreal, I had to worry about...

    Take delivery now?

    Calling the electrician is easy enough to do soon. Selling a great old RAV4 now in mid winter might also be possible. Won't know until I try. But getting rid of all that snow might take some work. I suppose I should start venting my furnace heat to the outside now . . .

    Take delivery now?

    All I can say is that the manager said he would be willing to store it. I didn't realize how unusual it is!(He must really be desperate!) Does that count as a vote to wait?

    Take delivery now?

    Wow! My dealer here in Montreal told me not to expect delivery of my Leaf SV until the last 2 weeks of April. He just called yesterday to tell me it has arrived! I am thinking to tell him to store it until the end of April. Because: 1) We still have mounds do snow and tons of salt on the roads...

    Headlights, esp. High Beams, Are Poor

    Is there a way of upgrading my 2014 sv leaf with halogen headlights to LED? Here in Canada we don't have the option of choosing LED's on the SV trim.

    2013 SL heater not working...again

    Thank you for your information. Anyone know anything about my other questions? (Just to save you time, here it is again:) All of this about heating problems makes me worry. I live in Montreal, as in "very cold and snowy". I am waiting for my Leaf SV 2014 to arrive in a few weeks. The last...

    What will the LEAF 2014 cost in Canada?

    What are the package options for the Leaf 2014 in Canada? I can't seem to find anything clearly printed for the Canadian prepackage.
