As I'm renting (and even if the landlord were willing, adding the 220 line in the garage would have required a panel upgrade :P) I have been using primarily level one charging since I took delivery in May 2011 (over 4 years!). At that time there were maybe 2 (!!) DC quick chargers in the...

Hey, sorry for the late reply... but as I was LOOKING for range extension, so I feel honor bound to say "hell yeah". The issue is the sad state of DC charging in the SF bay area... or rather the LACK thereof. If there were 5 strategically placed DC chargers I suddenly don't need the extra...

Well, I've been bitching. Was already to start complaining about the last change to my pending date as "week of 5/10", except Ron Coury of North Bay Nissan called me tonight. Apparently I was downright entertaining to my wife and best friend as I starting making incoherent gesticulating motions...

I don't see people being attacked for exercising their rights. I see a potential troll who literally just joined the board trying to sow serious FUD. Despite the issues (and yeah, I'm kinda semi-holding my breath that I actually MAKE it to "the week of May 6, 2011" without the date slipping off...

Excuse me, my mind just boggled.... CARGO MATS? Let's see, zero impact to the functionality of the car, and the most dead simple thing to install. Hmmm, so do we give the vehicle to the rabid early adopter who can make or break the launch of this product, or do we hold it until we get the mats...

Ok, there may be something to that -- my rather bizarre date movement went to May 6 as well. Are they about to load up May as their biggest month yet?? ~Y~

Greetings, fellow Maybees! (and suddenly I am struck by memories of Romper Room -- "Don't be a don't bee, do be a May bee...") My sig says it all... in the last week my DB date keeps moving forward in a perverse proof of Zeno's paradox, as if they think they slooooooooowly reduce the apparent...

(sighs) I wouldn't get TOO happy for me quite yet -- I awoke today to a NEW delivery estimate: Week of April 29. My fear now is they'll just change the week of by seven day increments going forward. What is so difficult with the precept of under-promising and over-delivering? If Nissan said the...

Okay, NOW I'm starting to believe -- this morning I received the "Congratulations!" e-mail, so I went to check the dashboard, and I got me a VIN! Carwings activation! Insert further incoherent happy burbling here! :P And if I haven't said it recently y'all rock. I know there have been times...

You win! I think such a call would have sent me into a seizure. This lends some credence to reports of a DB bug incorrectly moving some people to June/July, perhaps as a result of a port hold to fix the AC issues, etc. ((crossing fingers)) ~Y~

And now MY head is going 'splodey over this change today: "week of April 22, 2011". I was just coming to terms with waiting until July. Well, until I get the VIN and my dealer calls saying the car is in their possession, a large grain of salt shall be taken. (Sure enough, the day AFTER I...

Amen to that, sir. I ride a 2006 ZAP Truck currently. You want to talk about Chinese manufacture? Now THAT was an insanely expensive car for what you received. Factor in the 84V upgrade and I will have spent about 2/3 what I will on the Leaf after the incentives... if I manage to get them. :P...

Thank you for kicking my butt about that -- I've been meaning to correct those accidental 10/29 entries for the RAQ. Sent in the form. ~Y~

Add me to the growing chorus -- also a 9/29/10 RAQ which would make the proposed delivery date 10 months from order. Damn... I was SO CLOSE... ~Y~

That should be 9/29 -- No idea if that was my screw-up when I sent in the info for the spreadsheet. Thank you!
