    Navigation map update ?

    I see "XM Traffic" in the 2012 specs. But I don't see it as available for the Leaf at: http://www.siriusxm.com/servlet/Satellite?c=SXM_PageDetail_C&childpagename=SXM/SXM_PageDetail_C/OpenContent&cid=1282009830205&pagename=SXM/Wrapper" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :?:

    Navigation map update ?

    Has everyone just given up on the Leaf navigation system? I have a Garmin 2460LMT I paid $249 for it a year ago. Ten months ago it was easily updated, for free, and included a new, and major, interchange on I-10 north of Tucson. I've had my Leaf a year but I know of no map updates available...

    What's new in L2R.1.7A firmware?

    My Blink was successfully upgraded remotely this morning. Now I can only connect to the router. I've power cycled and clicked "retry test" about a hundred times. Green green red red n/a red. I was doing fine before the firmware upgrade. P.S. Thought I'd check my color sequence before I...

    Poll : Are you having problems with your Blink EVSE ?

    After days of downloading but not installing the 1.7 upgrade Ecotality tried to remotely upgrade my firmware without success today. The install kept reporting it was an incorrect file. The tech said they would run the upgrade program on their unit and call me back. That was about five hours...

    Bike Rack

    Yes I have a QuickBack 3. Recommended by Yakima. I've used it once. I mounted it as high as it will go. That puts the bottom just above the license plate light enclosure. It seems to fit well and holds two bikes securely. The rack did however leave slight "dents" from the bottom contact...

    Tucson area Leafers

    We went to the Oro Valley town hall and library parking lot on La Canada Sunday night. There are four level 2 Blink EVSEs. I had received my Blink card last week. Held it up to the front of the EVSE and plugged in my Leaf. Seemed to work well.

    Fed Up with the Tea Party? Need a Laugh?

    I absolutely agree. We'd have a very different electorate, and country, if everyone took, and understood, a macroeconomics course.

    Can the Leaf air condition my garage?

    JimmyDreams, Of course you are right. I've been using a hose connected portable swamp cooler but I should get an air conditioner as you suggest.

    Can the Leaf air condition my garage?

    I live in Tucson and my garage gets hot in the summer. I'm thinking of running the climate control with the Leaf windows open and a circulation fan running. It is a three car garage with a fairly high ceiling. Does anyone think this might be a bad idea?

    Owning Nissan Leaf Leads to Dog Attack

    The owner has absolute liability for that dog. As a 40 year runner and biker if it happened to me I would consult a lawyer.

    Roof Rack

    I've carried a lot of things on roofs including bikes. I always tape a note to the upper windshield with my height written on it. When driving towards something like a hotel overhang my eyes go towards the note.
