    My Leaf was (likely) totaled in an accident. What can I expect?

    I was in an accident in which my 2014 Leaf was hit from behind (while stopped in freeway traffic) and pushed into the car in front of it. 5 cars were involved on the freeway. Anyway, I was not at fault, and I expect that my insurance company will declare the car "totaled". I'm wondering if...

    Plug-in options for a 65-year-old (Camry size or bigger)

    My 65 year old retired mom is getting a new car soon. I am trying to push her toward a plugin option, but she is hung up on having a car with "a lot of space" which, for her, means camry-size or bigger. (She likes having enough room for it to be the only car needed when on a long drive with her...

    Trip Reports: Long Distance Leaf

    Took the family on our first Leaf "long distance" trip last weekend (between L.A. and Santa Barbara), and it all worked out well. Thought I'd share some data and lessons-learned.

    Driving a Leaf from L.A. to San Diego: recommendations?

    I apologize if this is already covered in detail elsewhere, but can anyone share some real-world experience details of a trip between Los Angeles and San Diego in a Leaf (either direction)? I have a 2014 Leaf (w/ QC and 6.6kw). (brand-new so no degradation yet). I live in Woodland Hills...

    Costs/Recommendations for installing 240V charger in garage

    Anyone have costs/recommendations for installing a 220/240V outlet in a garage that doesn't already have one? Thinking of getting a NEMA outlet installed and then just plugging the HCS-40 Clipper Creek EVSE into it. What should it cost me to have an electrician install a 240V outlet in the...
