Well, we took the plunge last night. Vandergriff Toyota in Arlington had a "used" 2011 Leaf with
89 miles on it. We had a hairy ride home, with some serious range anxiety. The Toyota dealership didn't have a charger installed there, so we were going to have to drive the car from Arlington to McKinney with less than a full charge. The range on the dash said 65 miles, so we knew we were going to cut it extremely close. Since we weren't positive we were actually going to purchase the car, we hadn't yet signed up for any Blink or eVgo memberships, so we had no clue if we could have charged up anywhere along the trip home, plus it was after 10:30pm before we actually got out of the dealership for the ride back.
So we forged on into the night... as we turned into our neighborhood, a very pleasant woman informed us that we had a very low battery (no kidding! LOL!) and when we pulled into the garage, the readout on the dashboard said we had a range of 8 miles. And our actual odometer reading was sitting at 150, we put 61 miles on it on the way home.
Needless to say, I'm signing up with Blink this morning. So for anyone out there considering purchasing a used Leaf from a NON-Nissan dealership, make sure that car has a full charge before you head home in it.
