Yes, thank you for that recommendation, Tony! Several comparable options were available, thankfully, and this seemed like the best one. Friends traded in a 2011 Leaf for a 2012, but I didn't want to do that.TonyWilliams said:Good 'ole CarMax. I tried to un-LEAF myself today, but not quite. Going back Sunday for round two.
Yes. When I leased the ActiveE, I wanted to get involved in another EV community. BMW seemed genuinely committed, and I didn't really know what I was signing up for. Sound familiar? I've been impressed with BMW's follow-trough on the issues I and other field trialists have experienced. It has not been perfect by any means, but I'm hopeful that the production vehicles will be a viable alternative to some of us, and will turn more people onto EVs. I'm not quite ready to turn my back on Nissan yet, but it's quite likely that I will scale down my participation in the Leaf community.RegGuheert said:Perhaps an EV which leaves you stranded on the highway is preferrable to one which loses capacity if you feel the manufacturer is standing behind their product?
Thank you for your concern! The Leaf had 15,363 miles and I experienced about 10% range loss. The friends I mentioned above, had 9% loss measured by a Nissan dealer, which took nearly a whole day to determine. They ended up trading in the car. We live in a temperate climate, and rarely see temperatures above 90F.KJD said:I am also sorry to hear that your Leaf is gone. How many miles did you have on it ?
