    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    The Kentucky piece is located at an authorized Nissan dealer, so getting them to run the VIN shouldn't be an issue. The Iowa piece is located at a location that is not, so this would mean trying to get a different Nissan dealer to run the VIN. I might try to get the Kentucky folks to run both...

    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    I agree that they both are intriguing overall, but for different reasons. The lower mileage piece is intriguing largely due to the condition of the vehicle, it appears to be very, very clean. However, I am equally of the opinion that it might be a little overpriced and being that it currently...

    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    Been pulled away for a bit too long... Love the conversation on Maine and Minnesota. This is our preferred summer climate and we have spent months over the last several summers in both locations. They both have their draws, but flying pests are not one of them. Coming to the realization that...

    Username is deceiving. Always wanting to get away to Maine, but sadly located in Indiana 😉

    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    I have definitely shifted my focus to SVs or SLs built in 2016 or after to get the 30kwh battery. A service like Carvana or CarMax seems to provide the best option since they also include some delivery capacity or another. There is a 2016 with 3,700 miles located about 3.5 hours (225 miles)...

    I am absolutely sure that the bars that were shown in the images were the capacity bars. Seems crazy to me to even try to sell something like that, but does make you wonder about Thanks for the additional shopping insight. I'll definitely look into those other options. The challenge isn't...

    Definitely leaning towards a 2016 or 17 SL or SV. I agree that the greater range makes a lot more sense. Also if I could find one either with a lot of bars or sitting at 9 or 10 with several years left to get to a potential warranty replacement if or when needed that would be good as well. I...

    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    Yup...Read LeftieBikers' post right before pushing mine out. One of the thought exercises I need to work through is balancing the lower mileage and higher SOH of the 2014 at $8,500 to the greater range, higher mileage and potential battery replacement/refresh on the 2016s falling in around...

    Shopping for First Leaf and Chasing Bars...

    Hey there! Just starting down the path of a first Leaf purchase. I began with a focus on 2016 SV/SL for the 30kWh battery and the longer warranty. Then I noticed a couple interesting pieces and wanted to check with the pros here. I also stumbled across a 2014 with 12,500 miles and 12 bars...
