    Vent Visors?

    Is anyone out there making vent visors, wind deflectors, for the '13 Leafs? I was hoping that the Autoshade Vent Visor (Not bug deflector like JC Whitney sells) for the '12 would work on the '13, but I can't find those either. Surely someone makes them???? Thank you for your help.

I have the temp set at 67 degrees Fahrenheit, so I assumed the A/C would turn on, not the heater. When I turn the A/C function on manually after activating...

    To charge or not to charge

    I tried searching this but the search parameters didn't like the numerous results. So here is the question: When should I recharge (outside of being really low)? If my commute only take 15% of my total range, is it OK to come home and recharge or should I let it get to a certain level...
