I am looking to buy a used Leaf one day. Curious on how the maintenance is on these? I am a hard core DIY guy. I dont believe in taking to dealer. I have owned Nissans exclusively since 1984. Do all my own work. Only owned 1 NEW one. Only thing I dont do is alignments. Well thats not always true for my 92 Pathy.
Currently own:
92 Pathfinder SEV6 highly modified for fun. VG33, Solid axle swap etc..
05 Armada SEV8 Stock family car and tow rig.
04 Quest SEV6 stock Wifes. (bought new)
Since the Quest and Armada are same size (1" different) we want to replace Quest with a Leaf. My Wife never does more than 30 miles a day.
I have never driven one but I have sat in them at Car show.
I wanted to drive the Leaf to work, but I guess it wont make the 70 mile round trip. Its 70mph all the way. I work next to Nissan in Coppel. I see a few Leafs with manufacture plates on occasion.
Any ways I want the oldest Leaf I can find. Preferably with no warranty. I understand the batterys have a 9 year warranty. I dont want to wait that long though.
