    Would the Leaf fit my needs?

    New owner here! As mentioned in the prior post, I would consider looking at the SV as well. - I purchased, and as a rule we're charging @ 80% which gives us somewhere in the mid 60-mile range. Everyone in the house is fighting over who's going to drive it next! - $7,500 Fed Tax Credit is...

    Post Your Order Details Here

    State : New York Metro area/city : Wappingers Falls (Dutchess County) Color/trim: Mettallic Slate / Black / SV Options: No options. We passed on the quick charge port...We figure that by the time there are enough quick charge stations here in the North East to truly change our driving habits...

    How do Factory Orders Work?

    Sorry to hear that. It's not fair that it's so close & they can't work out something. Last week I actually received a call from my dealer over at Poughkeepsie Nissan. He said that the car is scheduled for delivery "The week of July 5th". He even gave me a VIN number...but I'll believe it...

    How do Factory Orders Work?

    Just browsing the web during lunch...I found a Metalic Slate SV with the premium package in Newburgh. You probably saw it already, but I wanted to forward you the link just in case... http://www.newburghnissan.com/car/197221/2013_Nissan_LEAF_SV" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false...

    How do Factory Orders Work?

    Hope you don't mind, but I'm checking your're posts regularly to see if you received a delivery date... We placed our order on April 20th. We were told that it would take close to a week to formally place the order with Nissan, and then it would be 8-10 weeks. The last I heard was that it "would...

    The impact of the electric car: infographic

    "And I can imagine Michele Bachmann having one of these posters hanging in her office" Agreed...You don't have to be a political junkie to see that she's the anti-christ. Be afraid...be very afraid...

    How do Factory Orders Work?

    Hey Poughkeepsie... Wappingers here. We placed our order for a Metallic Slate SV back on April 20th over at Poughkeepsie Nissan. I figured it took them close to a week to place the actual order, so I'm only out 5 weeks so far. It's been very quiet however...I thought I'd at least receive some...

    2013 Apr Plugin Sales Discussion : Leaf 1,936 ; Volt 1,306

    My wife and I just put a deposit down on April 20th to order a 2013 SV...looks like it's going to be a long summer waiting for a delivery date! :(

    New York here...

    We're going to go with the SV as well...and I agree...we tend to hold on to our cars for quite a long time, and as a 2nd car in a family full of short-term commutes of less than 20 miles a day, the QC port isn't practical yet. I will follow up with Woodbury Commons. I've been at Poughkeepsie...

    New York here...

    Wappingers here. We plan on buying sometime this month, but after everything I've read I plan on passing on the QC port. By the time NY has enough QC ports available to truly change our daily driving habits, we'll be driving in our 2nd generation EV. It's on the horizon...but these types of...

    Seeking Comments on a 2012 Leftover…

    Like many of you here I’ve been anxiously waiting for the 2013 Leafs, and although I’d like to pull the trigger on one, I felt the need to first look into the possible deals that are out there on a 2012 leftover. I live in New York, and I’ve never been a fan of leasing, so I plan on purchasing...

    Level-3 Charging Stations in NY?

    Greetings from Hudson Valley NY, We'll most likely make the jump into a 2013 Leaf later this year, but I'm questioning the value of the additional cost for the quick-charge port. I understand the argument for making an investment in the future, but I fear that by the time level-3 charging...

    New York here...

    Hey neighbor. Wappingers Falls here as well. Seriously considering becoming a Leaf owner. How do you like yours? How have the local Nissan dealerships been to work with? Any regrets? Thanks for your comments. Fred
