Wow, I thought there were laws that existed to prevent receiving a quote for $200 but after the quoted service being completed, having a bill 350% higher...
From my own experience, I recommend Campbell-Nelson up in Edmonds. Ray and Dino are awesome (and also participate on this board and the Facebook group).gpogue said:I am looking to lease a Leaf in the Seattle area and wondered if people have recommendations for dealerships to work with.

Tix can be purchased here: https://tickets.landmarktheatres.com/Ticketing.aspx?TheatreID=246&MovieID=12629&ShowDate=11/11/2011&ScheduleID=23777" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
There is a pre movie event at the Hotel Deca before the showing and a post showing discussion.
I saw it in Kirkland several months ago and highly recommend it.

Just returned to Issaquah (during a hailstorm I might add) after viewing the 3PM show. A very well done documentary. . . . . . .especially if already own an EV! :lol: Seriously, go see it, it's great!!

I've had a similar precipitous drop in range on one occasion. I doubt very much
that it's the 12V charger, though. More likely it's the heat/AC (both run on the
traction battery at ~400V) and the decreased battery performance at lower temp-
eratures. There seems to be significant drop on the GOM at about 40ºF. I got
to the driveway with a flashing 4 that night.
I am getting more daring and arriving home with one bar and single digit miles
more often.
Haven't had to push yet.

It is criminal, I say. A $34 K car and you have to fiddle with the climate control, turn the defroster on and off, so that you don't drastically reduce range. All I want to do is blow air on the windshield, and I know a fan motor doesn't require 4.5 kW. :evil:
I hope EVSE Upgrade Phil releases his mod soon.
