Seeking your advice.
Location: Austin, Texas
Miles: 56900
Bars: 9
LeafDD "C" (Ahr) = 43.49
GIDS full charge = 181
5 year warranty is up in the fall. I will reach 60k long before then (May or June) if I keep driving it like I do.
The question is, should I keep driving it , or should I park it out front for two months or so and drive my old car until the heat of the summer kicks in?
I think I'm close. I was at 45.2 Ahr two months ago, which is about 0.85 Ahr loss per month (during the winter). So if that rate is accurate AND keeps up, I should hit 41 Ahr within 3 months, which would almost certainly cause that 9th bar to drop....right?
I'd much rather just keep driving the Leaf because my old car is not insured or registered (and so I would have to do those things, which costs money). And I think I'm close. But would prefer some internet affirmation of my beliefs.
