Hi Lincoln, The reasons you stated are the reason that I'm leaning towards keeping the stock HU and just add an amp to power the new components. Just not sure if I'm going to get an amp. The Inifinity basslink seems like a viable option since it's a self powered sub.

Hello, I have a 2013 Nissan Leaf S. It's the base model that didn't come with the upgraded sound package so I have four door speakers plus the stock HU. I'm looking to upgrade my car audio system and would like to spend somewhere between $600-1000. Unsure what that will buy me but for now...

thanks for the response! It'd be great to do 100% all the time but I'm like you charging to 80% "just in case"

Hello leaves, I just picked up a 2013 S this past month and have had a great time owning it. I do need to be cognizant and plan out my travel plans but it hasn't been too bad. We've even driven over 150 miles during the day. :) I've been reading and some speculate that the battery in the...

Thanks everyone for your responses. I'm now on the EV plan since the E6 plan is no longer available. From reviewing the PG&E site, it looks like many of the plans we are on now are going to be phased out by 2017 and replaced with fewer options, including a two-tier plan (to replace the...

Hello! I'm going to make the move to EVA plan next month and compare it with my current usage this month to see which plan is better for me. We typically use approx 400kW / month prior to purchasing the Leaf and now I plan on adding ~120kW of usage on top (charge the car at work mon-friday but...

I just got my own set of juke wheels and am excited to mount some Michelin MXM4s on them. Will keep everyone updated on the range once I break them in. If anyone is interested in changing tires soon, American Tire has a discount of $70 on four tires right now.

Hello, I want to purchase one so that I can start using Leafspy. What do people recommend nowadays? I was thinking of purchasing this one because it is iOS compatible. Or I can do what others have done and purchase a cheap android phone to keep in the car for tracking purposes. Thanks...

I read about leafspy on here and was going to purchase the OBD2 but just didn't have the time before. I'm no too upset about it. The car has 29k miles so I'm fine. The car was a lease return so my guess is that the prev owner charged to 100%. I am about to purchase an OBD2 dongle and have...

Officially finally purchased my own Leaf! Just a few days ago, I picked up a 2013 Leaf S with QC port and 29k miles. Strangest thing happened though... when I test drove the car, it showed 12 bars but two days after taking ownership, it now shows 11. I don't mind though since I got a great...
