Delivery date : Saturday december 11th

CVRP link for the LEAF still isn't there. Hope it goes live today so that Gudy can put in for his rebate tomorrow! If it doesn't, and it's still not up by the workshop next week, you can be sure I'm going to ask why (not that I haven't asked already).

CCSE said that the LEAF should be listed "before 11 Dec".

Right ... but can they keep their promise ? Not much time left.

 

[gudy]

the iphone app is out, my EVSE is being installed as I type ... so the LEAF being listed on the CVRP page is the last item on my list
I have confidence, seeing how everything else worked out ok.
And even if it's not listed, as long as it is before the I leave on vacation (21st), then I'm happy.

ARB approved Nissan's Clean Vehicle Rebate Project application yesterday, so CCSE will definitely be posting the LEAF's eligibility today.

Now don't all rush over there and apply. Remember.....you need to wait until you've taken delivery of your car!

Hey, don't warn them. I'm hoping that a lot of folks ahead of me go too early and then have to resubmit after a month or two when the form get rejected. It'll give me a better shot at access to the funds.

Ooh...good strategy!

Is there going to be a live video feed of the event?

I don't think so - on Facebook Nissan says we can follow on Twitter / FB. This to me means no live feed.

 

[rainnw]

Sounds like fun! I guess we will be there at 1:30!

Postmortem:
With Gudy's 67 mile drive, any one hear whether there was a media frenzy when he got home ... or how much charge was left?

Yeah, where is Gudy? Did the polar bear eat him? Was he forced into a mnl.com specific NDA as a condition of getting his car first?

 

[IBELEAF]

He has the Leaf, he doesn't need us anymore

 

[garygid]

... he hasn't phoned, he didn't write ... she sobbed.

 

[LEAFer]

He is TIRED!! Constant continuous unrelenting interviewing ... all that media attention. Apparently they got to Petaluma WAY early to get the paperwork out of the way and some basics about the car ( I saw pictures with him still with a coat on in various locations in Petaluma ... temps weren't actually that low, although the fog persisted for a long time ). All that was before they put the "sheet" over the car. By the time I got there at 11:00 he was already mobbed and that never let up. In SanFran it was even worse. Near the end when I left from City Hall park/plaza around 14:45 it appeared he was giving some rides. Don't know when they finally got out of there ( I'd guess 4pm ).

*OR* he and family went to escape the paparazzi today doing a leisurely drive to the coast

 

[palmermd]

Is Gudy still with us? Is his car now a collectors item? It's the first one out of warranty.
