    2 Years In

    Well, today's my 2 year anniversary with my 2012 LEAF SL & it's as unseasonably cold as the first day I bought it! My experience... I notice I'm over the thrill of flooring it and getting the smooth acceleration that was the extreme thrill of the LEAF for the first year or so. I have a longer...

    Carwings stuck in an endless loop!?!

    I've had a strange problem with carwings since last night. After I start the car, I hit "Yes" button & then carwings, for some unknown reason, runs the routine where it tells me my energy efficiency & regional rating. It says it's on step 2 of 4, it hangs at this point, touch screen is...

    Cracker Barrel Finished Adding Charging Stations

    I was in Cincinnati last month helping a friend get her new LEAF and asked the salesman about local charging, knowing already that Cincinnati has very few Level 2 stations and no level 3s. He told us that by the end of 2014 all Cracker Barrels, nation wide, would have level 2 charging stations...

    Cincinnati LEAF owners

    I've got a friend who's interested in getting a LEAF in Cincinnati. She has a 10 mile commute & drives about 10k miles/year, so I think the 2yr lease will work great for her. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the Nissan dealers in Cincinnati. There are 3...

I spoke to Blink Customer Service today and he said there was no ticket or plan to fix the location...

    One Year In My LEAF

    I just gotta say my LEAF had its first birthday today with a grand total of 25,781 Miles in my first year! I celebrated by being completely sick & after picking up my kids & charged up enough to go pick up my prescriptions from the drug store. Hit VLB warning at my street & took a picture...

    Ugh! I pushed it too far (by 1/8th of a mile)

    So I had to take an extra drive tonight & had 25 GIDs when I got home. Then I got the great idea of helping my BMS learn a little so I decided to drive around the block to turtle my 2012 LEAF since I've only done that once before, about 6 months ago. Well, I turtled about 0.6 miles from my...

    Nissan dealership wanting to move me to a 2013, suggestions?

    I received an email from my Nissan dealer I purchased my LEAF from last year asking what it would take to put me in a new car. I replied with, let me trade in my 2012SL for a 2013SL for $0 down and match or beat my current payments (about $550/month) They called me withing 5 minutes & are...

    GID loss & Turtle mode question...

    In May of this year I finally got around to range testing my 2012 LEAF. I started with a reading of 270 GIDs & ended with 4 GIDs (btw, 130.3 miles). So, my problem is that after running my LEAF down to dead, my battery quickly dropped to a full charge of around 255 GIDs & now I'm down to...

    Wow! I knew range was supposed to increase in warm weather..

    I got my LEAF in November 2012 and knew that the range was supposed to be better in the warm weather than cold, but didn't realize how much! The night I purchased, I drove home in 30deg weather and proceeded to learn how to drive an EV in a very cold winter (for southern middle TN) and let me...

    Pre-EV driving habits carried over to the LEAF

    Anybody else find themselves doing things that are no longer relevant? When cruising and I push the "gear shift" forward, to put my LEAF into neutral, I cannot stop from first taking my foot off the accelerator to instinctively not run up the RPMs when it goes into neutral! :lol: Philip

    Charging question

    I've notice something that seemed odd to me, so I thought I'd throw it out to the forum. I have mostly been charging to 100% since I got my LEAF (Drive 60+ miles/day & I've been getting used to it) Anyway, I got a WattsLeft meter last week and have been watching Gids obsessively, to the point...

    Had a trip to take out of town this weekend & contacted my dealer about using my One2One rewards for the free car rental. For those who don't know, if you buy/lease a LEAF you get 10 days of free car rentals. They gave me a choice of about 5 Nissan models. I told them I was driving about 550...

    First Roadtrip... 112 Miles each way was a success!

    Went to visit my dad for Christmas this weekend and gave my LEAF it's first real road test. It's 112 miles from Tullahoma, TN to Cleveland, TN. Trip includes going over Monteagle mountain, which was my only real worry. I will have to brag that as far as charging goes, I'm pretty much covered...

    One month with my LEAF

    I just finished my first month with my 2012 SL LEAF & I am loving it more each new day! I had 1919 miles on the odometer when I pulled out of the driveway this morning & thought, "man the 15k lease wouldn't have met my needs, glad I bought" Today I put 5 gallons of gas into my '98 Accord with...

    LEAF's Top speed?

    I searched about this and couldn't find where it had been discussed before. I thought the LEAF was limited to 85mph, but noticed while at the dealership last week that they listed top speed as 90mph. So last night I had to go on the interstate for 3 miles and well... I backed off at 93, dunno...
