Generally, yes. Congrats! It's got the winter package, right?

Congrats! now for the upgrades! I recommend installing an ecohitch so that you can use the leaf more often.

DustanT said:You guys able to squeeze a few miles out with higher tire pressure like the hybrids do? I found a RV nema 14-50 50 amp plug halfway home I can use at a camp ground I called. I plan on running 65mph on the freeway instead of 70 or 75.

Yes on the tire pressure, but the slower speed would definitely help far more.
Also, I have LeafSpy Pro and checked. No way to turn off the back-up sound nor motor whine. Not sure if those are "safety features" and thus not defeatable.

40 amp is perfect for a Leaf, which draws about 28 amps. You need a 20% buffer, so 40A is the smallest size that you can use with the OEM dual voltage charging cable.
BTW, modern US voltages are 120 volt, 208 volt, and 240 volt. 208 doesn't work with the Nissan cable, but 240 does.
Ok thanks, I'm going to run a plug to my parking spot.
