    15 amp 120v vs 12 amp 120v cables???

    that wont work. they will just break the window and pop the hood. now i have to pay for a new window also. maybe i can search for a apartment with a garage that wont break the bank, or i can just charge at the casino and walk home.

    15 amp 120v vs 12 amp 120v cables???

    u might not be up to date on prices. here is a nissan oem level 1 evse for 400.00 on amazon. im assuming it is the same as you get with the car: http://www.amazon.com/Nissan-Leaf-Charger-Evse-Level/dp/B00PJ1E4RK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1424246628&sr=8-5&keywords=level+1+charger"...

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    i called the local chevy dealership and they said they can work on the chevy spark evs as long as they have a volt technician available. that wont be a problem. also, the bolt will be available nationwide in 2 years so as long as the battery isnt a lemon before then, i should only need basic...

    15 amp 120v vs 12 amp 120v cables???

    I was looking on amazon to see what a level 1 charger costs, if mine were to get stolen charging it out the window. you can buy a 15 amp 120v connector for only 100 bucks compared to the nissan one which is only 12 amps for 400. would i be able to use this 15 amp cable on the spark ev or the...

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    im torn between the 14 spark ev for 17k or the 2012 leaf sl for 13xxx. the spark has a tms which should allow my battery to last for the 10 years i plan on keeping the car. it also could be a collectible because of the torque. BUT the leaf has a quick charger and i think the 6.6 charger. the...

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    for some reason carmax has great prices on 11 and 12 but very high for 2013.

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    you seriously think the 11 leaf will be worth more down the line because its a first year. i dont know if electric cars will be thought of in that way. i could see the 14 spark ev possibly having some high demand down the road since they only made one model year with 400 pounds of torque before...

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    thats huge depreciation for one year. the difference between the 12 and 11 is only about 1500. makes me wonder what the 14 spark ev that car max has for 17k will be worth in 2017. maybe i should buy the 2012 leaf for 13k and then sell it in 2017 and buy the 2014 spark ev at that time.

    2012 Leaf SL vs 2013 leaf SL??

    I was checking leaf prices again on carmax and wanted your opinion. the 2012 leaf can be bought all day in the 12's and 13's, but the 2013 leafs are selling for 19k to 20k. thats a big difference for 1 year. i remember someone here saying dont buy anything before 2013. is this perception widely...

    volkswagon xL1 electric??

    mini, if using a existing car saves a company money, why dont we see a electric corvette or mustang. those cars have high maintenance bills after the warranty expires. EVs are reliable and dont cost a fortune to maintain. a electric sports car beats the pants off a gas one in my opinion. a...

    Question to people that know about collectible cars

    interesting, but do you have to catalog every part and document each part as original or newly made. what about all these cars in paris that were exposed to the elements for 50 years. When you redo the body and take off the rusted panels, doesnt that make it now not original. if you arent aware...

Since these cars dont exist anymore, wouldnt making new parts for the...

    Chevrolet Bolt & Bolt EUV

    I was on chevrolet's website and they already have the bolt featured with all info and pictures. it is a beautiful car with great specs. This will be a game changer if they can sell it for 30k. Its better than a bmw that costs 1k to fix everytime you pop the hood.The bolt should last over 10...

    Why 200 miles??

    do you think as battery costs go down, they will be able to make 4 versions of a car w/o having to change the structure of the car to fit different packs. if they can make a 200 mile pack in 3 years for 200 a kwh then they could make a 10kwh 20kwh 30kwh, and 40 kwh battery packs. thats...
