Yeah, I don't get the Smart car bashing. It is a great car. It handled the snow like a champ and the winds barely effect my driving, but to each their own. I am happy with my purchase and at the rate the Leaf is going I might end up getting a Smart EV before anyways. It also looks like the Ford...

I actually just sold my Dodge Nitro and bought a Smart Fourtwo Passion Coupe! I plan on selling it once I get my Leaf, but figured in the mean time I would have some fun. I sold my Nitro for $18,500 and bought a Passion Coupe for $18,000. While at the Smart Center (in La Vista, Nebraska) I saw 2...

I sure hope you are correct! I would love to place a Reservation, especially order, within the next few months. I will be eagerly awaiting the month of April to see what happens.

So, after having my Cousin (who is a mechanic at the Local SMART Dealership) did some investigation for me, I can officially say NO THANKS. First off, the Electric Smart Car is going to be sold at $48,000, yes I said $48,000. Crazzzy high price, especially since I think the Smart Cars are VERY...

INtersting thing i learned today. Here in Omaha, Nebraska we are selling the Electric Smart Car, well not selling it but leasing it. For $2500 the Charging Dock will be installed and then you can sign up for different periods of Leasing. I am strongly considering a 12 Month lease, because I...

Your ideas are all so good. I can't wait till my move to California. Until then I am stuck in "Forgotten" Nebraska.

I've been trying to not look at a Smart Car or Prius, because I am dying to get a new car (especially something that runs on as little gas as possible). I put my name in with a local dealer and he said that he is hoping Nissan might allow them to try out the Leaf in my cold state before 2012. So...

Yay! Another Leaf sold. Congratz man! :D It'll be interesting to see how everything goes in March, if we start seeing the Leafs coming in fast then we know the Estimated Dates are all probably close to correct.

I do think Nissan should continue selling car in Tier 1 states, then Tier 2 states, but Nissan should also accept Reservations for the "Forgotten 36" states, as well. I don't think us in these states expect to see a LEAF anytime soon, if not till 2012, but I am hoping that I can at least have...

Maybe they'll start up a new round of Reservations in April?! :D

Congrats on the Leaf! I am completely salivating at my laptop right now. Must. Wait. A. Little. Longer. haha

I do know Nebraska is one of the leading states when it comes to Natural Gas. I imagine we would be one of the "Forgotten 36" that can handle an electric car as well.

Probably good for us "Forgotten 36" Leafers. I know living in Nebraska I will NEED a cold weather package at some point or another. I have to make a Reservation first (whenever that might be), but maybe it will have a few perks?! :lol:

Hopefully within the ORdering process they open up the Reservations for the Forgotten 36 :-)

Here in Nebraska we already have a $75 a year extra tax for Hybrid cars. Surprise :roll: I, personally, think us EV/Hybrid users should be given a TAX BREAK for our responsibility.

I would GLADLY go through Nissans 'crappy' Customer Service as long as I had a Leaf down the road. :-/ I will just have to wait to Reserve. :)

The second Nissan opens up Reservations for the "Forgotten 36" I will be online putting down my $99. However, I wouldn't be surprised if instead of a second batch of Reservations online they (Nissan) just decides to have local Dealers take care of the process. Either way: YAY! :)

I think the Japan incentives possibly expiring really screwed them up. THey thought the US would be their first stop, but it turned out Japan had to be. Hopefully, the lack of congestion by April means Reservations will open up soon after. :D

Hopefully, the rest of us will be able to Reserve a Leaf before early 2012.

I should have been a bit more clear, I know there are 20,000 Reserves, but only 8,00 who have placed an Order. My questions basically was, with the amount of information we have at this point (the fact that so many people are seeing DB activity) is it 'okay; to speculate that by Summer us in the...
