Did all the other LEAF owners receive an email about a programming glitch that leads to some inconsistencies when operating the climate control and starting the vehicle? "REASON FOR CAMPAIGN On some 2011 Nissan LEAF vehicles, a diagnostic programming error may under certain conditions detect...

Got the same message... awaiting both of my credits. I think I saw your LEAF parked in the Aikahi Shopping Center Friday afternoon. Not too many of us, so easy to spot. ;)

Just figured out my first month of electricity usage since getting my LEAF... $40.87. Now, granted that is only one month, but last month did represent a typical month of 1,020 miles at average conditions. I do drive a lot in ECO mode in traffic; I can only go so fast anyway. Our other car...

I was told back some time ago, that as time goes on and there are more EVs on the road that we will probably see some Level 2 chargers. This would actually be a better way to put any road trip anxiety to rest. I would be more than willing to swipe my CC for this service (just in case there are...

I spent my Saturday, giving neighbors a look and test rides... so far nothing but positive comments. Good to know about the access to chargers on the road (at the dealerships). I guess this is what it feels like to be on the ground floor of new technology. When Nissan puts out a crossover or...

Picked up our silver LEAF and took our first trip to Iwilei Costco... not my choice but able to get a load full of groceries and two kids home. For anyone else considering a Nissan LEAF, I recommend Windward Nissan. Marc Nakanishi was very helpful and made the experience pleasant.

The silver one, that is mine...

Thanks... already have one installed 12/17/2010, passed electrical inspection today. What I am more interested in is if you have your demo model in yet. I will be receiving mine in March 2011 (indicated by today's email). Just wondering if the dealer demo is coming in ahead of mine so I can...

For anyone else who has installed the charger from AV... you can fill out the rebate form and send it in right away. I am a little concerned that the permit no. listed is really an Building permit application number and not an actual permit no. don't know how this will ultimately affect the...

How were you able to order on Oct 28th... I registered on April 21st day after website launch and did all that was requested as soon as it was requested. I also inquired as to when Hawaii residents were going to be able to order and I was given the date of Nov 24th, I place my order on that...

I called the IRS and Yes it has to be in place and in working order prior to 12/31.... Went onto the Senate.gov website and looked at summary items associated with the renewal of the Bush tax cuts, I did not see this tax credit as part of the negotiated settlement. Does not mean the House will...

Kaneohe Hawaii $35,410 transaction price (in addition to federal tax credit, state tax credit is $4,500). Nissan LEAF™ SL trim color: brilliant silver edit option added: quick charge port (state of Hawaii is expected to have several of the quick charge ports in place by mid-2011)...

As a future first-user I hope you are right

12 demos? Then this was Nissan's problem to begin with... they submitted an initial press release that they hoped to sell 150K of these vehicles in 25 major markets by mid 2011. Now they estimate that sales could reach 1 million by 2013. Why would you only have 12 prototypes for 25 major...

Thanks for offer, but don't have any travel plans prior to my getting the car. I think many folks out there assume that I am not going to get this car... I'm just not crazy about Nissan's marketing strategy. I simply do not agree that a car is just a car. There are subtle differences in...
