[TonyWilliams]

Tony and bobsfreeleaf will be doing a range test today. They need a gidmeter and a 2012 LEAF. Details here:

I'd still like to run a 2012 LEAF in the near future. Thanks,

Tony

picked up a Silver Type "S" today. Think if I get painted with Car2Go colors I'll be able to swing free public parking?

Congrats! I will look out for you. What part of San Diego are you in? I have yet to see another S on the road here. Bob

Really? I've seen a ton. I can be found driving between Escondido and Little Italy.

That's a pretty good commute. I drive the 163 mostly, but rarely see more than 2 a day (one is one of my neighbors). When I look for the solor panel, its always there, signifying an SV/SL. Also, still not many S models in inventory on the web. I still suspect there are 10 times as many SL/SV's as S models. Are you switching out the speakers??? I hear the infinity's work well. Best Buy in Mira Mesa said they will work on the Leaf. Thx, Bob

It is a hefty commute. I do it twice a week for school. I currently can't do it two days in a row w/ just the trickle charge. Looking forward to getting the a charger installed here at home. I went with the 6.6 upgrade on my "S." The other three days of the week I'm just going 8 miles to the office

I thought you meant you hadn't seen any Leafs around, not just "S"s. I'm not sure I'd really know how to spot the difference. I'm sure you're right that these are rarer but it seems they're flying off the lots as soon as dealers get them.

I'd be open to switching out the speakers but as you noticed in my thread about the bluetooth music that's first on my wishlist. I'll keep an eye out to see if you get your speakers done.

Unless they have been changed out, the Leaf S is easiest to spot by the wheels, which are black painted steel with plastic hubcaps on them. The 2013 SL has 17 inch alloys that were previously unavailable; the wheels of all 2011/2012 Leafs are the same 16 inch alloys as what comes with the 2013 SV.

could anyone point me to the San Diego charge spots thread on here? I saw it a few days ago but now can't find it.

thanks.
Is there a resource for what these different kinds of chargers entail? So far I've figured out:

Blink has a membership that reduces the cost from $2.00 for the base guest rate down to $1.50 for a free membership and $1.00 for the plus membership that has a $30/yr. fee but is free through the rest of 2013. They'll mail you a membership card after signup.

ChargePoint requires a $5.00 fee to obtain a membership card and if you put a $25.00 balance and credit card on file they'll give you your first two charges for free. Unsure of their rates. Was poking around the Sea World chargers today (didn't take the Leaf) and it seemed like it would only accept credit cards that had the tap to pay feature... ? Didn't see a slot card reader. Rates weren't published but they're listed here as free. Didn't seem like it was free to me but that was the first one I've looked at.

Any others I should know about?
