mossyleaf said:I was discussing this with someone just the other day. They asked "Will you allow people who want to test drive the Leaf to take it home overnite?" I thought that an interesting question. Maybe some feedback from forum members would be good on this one. What do you think?

I did this when I was on the waiting list for a Prius and after a day with the Prius any second thoughts disappeared. I would like to do my weekend shopping ten mile loop and a 30 to 40 mile combination trip with stops using moderate speed roads, the freeway and surface streets. I would feel a lot better even spending another $50 (dealer credit?) doing a real world test rather then fifteen minutes (maybe) on a test drive.

Frank said:Once customers are driving their Leafs around and have some technical questions regarding the electronics, controls, battery etc., who should they call? Will Nissan have a National or Regional hotline for the the Leaf, or will these calls be handled by local dealers? Of course the folks on this forum that also will have Leafs will be a valuable source but I'm curious how Nissan plans to handle this.

Just find your local Nissan dealer....chances are they'll have a "Leaf Specialist" who's been trained on the car. After about a year or so, I'm expecting the Leaf to be just like any other car as far as Nissan is concerned in that any dealer can work on/answer questions. It's only the initial roll-out stage that will necessitate specialized Leaf training because not all dealers will have trained specialists.
