Thanks Just talked to a local company in Houston that said they only sell reconditioned batteries for hybrid but not for all electric cars I said why and they said the money is in hybrid batteries not in all electric car batteries I said why but she did not answer do you guys know why...

I apologize for my mess I was trying to say which I had to mention in the beginning, does Nissan Leaf have similar batteries? My goal is to get a used cheap electric car, these cars will probably have an almost dead battery. The intention was to replace it with a reconditioned cheap battery...

I saw the below article talking about a company which sells reconditioned EV batteries for $800 with 1 year warranty https://www.forbes.com/sites/tonybradley/2014/04/09/replacing-a-dead-prius-hybrid-battery-doesnt-have-to-cost-thousands-of-dollars/#40fc73f43ee9 Does it make sense to buy a used...

how much would you pay for this? At what level it does worth considering for this car?

25 miles range? I will pass on this car. But I am wondering who would buy this? Maybe hard bargain and drop the price to $6K and then pay another $5K for brand new battery? Total cost say $11K, the question is does it worth it?

so if only 9 out of 12 bars remaining what should I expect for max driving range? If it needs a 5K battery replacement soon what should I offer?

here is the link...

I wish i can find a usedeaf with free battery replacement Just to correct my math Operational cost would be,; 100k miles for $5,500 = 5.5 cents per mile 3 miles per kwh driving means 1/3 cent per mile One tank takes me 300 miles with 10 gallon gas which is $20 300x (0.055+0.0033)=~$16

Currently I can find a 2012 Nissan Leaf for $9K. I am not sure about the battery condition but assume it needs to be replaced for $5,500 with a 100K miles warranty My electricity cost is 1 cent/kwh ( I am on a plan 1000-1500kwh for 1 cent per kwh) and battery cost is 5.5 cents per kwh Total...

This is a beautiful idea Thanks

Yes that is a zipcode I am nearby Houston so back and forth to 77056, it is 25 miles each way 12.5 miles But Houston has terrible climate I am not sure how terrible will this be on the battery Looking at ebay now and amazed with several used leafs under 12K. So even though the batteries are...

What are your daily driving needs in terms of miles? How much city vs. highway? Will you have the ability to charge at your work/destinations? Daily commute to work every business day so back and forth it will be 25 miles 99% highway Add another 20 miles a week for other stuff. Again 99%...

Thanks for the questions The free charger is located in wholefoods in 77056 also, I am planning to charge it at home and this wholefoods is 10miles away from home and yes heat is an enemy and hopefully lizard battery will help on this matter. I am still researching. Also, I never drive more...

I shop there all the time The point is; is what I am planning to do, doable?

I am in Houston, TX I just test drove a LEAF 2 days ago and loved it but the salesman did not mention neither 2,500 TX rebate or $3,500 Nissan rebate He only knew the $7,500 that is it so help me here...

I am planning to buy a LEAF soon. So I started to look around for charging stations in my area and I found 2 free chargers inside wholefoods parking lot next to my work Question is; if more than 2 cars want to charge their cars what to do? Say I arrive late and 2 spots are taken and both cars...

Assuming I am in TX and I have more than $7,500 tax liability then it is like total 10K deduction in price? woow Now this is unbelievable I guess I have to look into buying Leaf more diligently Thanks

Dumb question Is this $2,500 rebate taxable? Second dumber question Is this $2,500 rebate seperate than the $7,500 federal rebate? Super dumb question Does any of these rebates applicable to used evs?

You know I am thinking Maybe I should not include battery replacement cost Toyota yaris is depreciating in value for a different reason At the end they both depreciate So the question is what is the resale value on an Ev? It can not be miles cuz in Ev this means not much I think it is the...
