    My LEAF became a TARDIS :-)

    The time machine that the BBC's Doctor Who travels around in is called a Tardis, which is an acronym for "Time and Relative Dimension(s) in Space." A product of Time Lord technology, a properly maintained and piloted TARDIS can transport its occupants to any point in time and space. The interior...

    Nissan's Andy Palmer on dirty power - "complete bullsh*t"

    Clean is a relative term. Where does the "clean" trail begin? Each arguement has a different staring point for their cleanliness argumeny. Define where "clean" starts and then we can discuss this issue in a rational matter. My LEAF is charged by pure, 100% hydro power.....about as clean as...

    Is a home charging station necessary?

    2800 miles and my LEAF has no idea what an at home 240 charging station looks like. I drive much the same as you and have always used my L-1 supplied with the vehicle. I have charged once at the local dealership to ensure that the 240V system was functional and once at a gala grand opening of...

    So what is maintenance like?

    Brake fluid flush is a recommendation. If your system stays closed and does not allow moisture to be absorbed into the fluid; it is usually a non-issue. The two year normal driving or one year if in a severe driving climate is not unique to the LEAF. My 2002 MB SLK-320 and my 2004 VOLVO XC-70...

    My list of things I'd like to see changed on the Gen 2 LEAF

    Thank you Leafnode. Living in a rural area as we do negates a lot of the immediacy of discussion items on the forum. I must say though; really have garnered a lot of useful information that we can use out here in burbs. We are really a growing LEAF community--4 of us now-2 Blue, 1 White and...

    My list of things I'd like to see changed on the Gen 2 LEAF

    Okay, I's missing something on the "poor steering". My LEAF is used 90+% in town driving, 40 mph or less - just to qualify my type of driving. I really like the feel of the steering. It is quick, agile and requires little effort and makes parallel parking a snap. I am missing...

    Insurance cost - not pleased

    Regrets--but wanted to show that a least one company seemed to have the cost of insuring the LEAF in the reasonable range. Good, reasonable incsurance coverage is getting a be a rather rare commidity. GIECO is the non-military version of USAA; any luck with them?

    Registering car in "non-leaf" state

    Back to the original question which I believe is: You are a legal resident of California. You also have a residence in another state. You want to purchase a vehicle in California but register as new at your secondary residence for use in that state? Is there any legal way to avoid paying...
