I went with the Siemens wall mount personally. I've debated about getting my portable upgraded, but I really never use it. Would be nice in an emergency though... I will consider it. For now, I'm happy with my wall mounted unit :)

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 25, 2014 – The Open Automotive Alliance (OAA) – a coalition of...
Just wanted to post that the wiper blades on the 2015 still suck. I guess I may need to invest in some nicer ones... the streaking and loud squeal of them drives me a little nuts. I will be trying to clean the blades and my windshield tonight...
My wife has been looking at ICE cars and at the Hyundai dealer they mentioned that the 2015 Sonata will receive a free update to Google Auto Link come early 2015. I asked my Nissan dealer if the Leaf would be getting something similar, but he just said one of the standard "well, Nissan always...
Ohh my, that is exactly what my Leaf looks like. Makes my heart beat just looking at those pics. Glad you are OK and I hope if it is totaled your insurance will let you get a 2015 model!
I would say, yes. It certainly wouldn't hurt! I think you can legally not purchase the car if you do not have it in your possession yet, even though you've signed the papers. It may vary depending on your state, but I know in Colorado you have a certain amount of days to reject a contract you...
Yeah, there is no difference that I am aware of from the 2014 premium package and 2015 premium package - it adds the AroundView camera and Bose, that's it. The 2015 models are a bit more expensive in general, so perhaps this is another area they are just trying to get some extra money... good...
The dealer was telling me to use the heated seats and the heated steering wheel over the air-heat to conserve energy if I wanted. Playing around with everything later tonight, my wife put the heated seats on high and the estimated miles went up about 5-6 miles... which got me thinking...
Woooot! I just got my white 2015 SL Leaf with premium package!
Such an awesome car. Love the zip and all the technology in it. The Bose sounds awesome and the 360 degree camera view is really neat. Went to dinner with the wife and let her drive back... good thing it's my main car and not hers...
Thanks, I hope its not a trick to get me in, but I think it will hold.
And thanks for reading my post thoroughly haha, yes that is a 17.5 each way commute, so nice and short. Even in dead of winter with aged battery I think I'd be ok. I thought maybe they had a typo with the 35 miles one way...
After some negotiating, they wouldn't move from the car price much, but they agreed to give me 1500 more for my trade in and remove a random fee for $229. After 14500 for a trade and fees (they wouldn't budge on the doc fee, not sure if that's a colorado deal but most dealers around Boulder say...
Dealer got back to me with 2 offers:
2015 Nissan Leaf SL with Premium package-
Leasing for 24 months and 12k miles a year would be $1800 down + 1st payment + Taxes. Monthly payment will be $351+tax.
Purchase exact same car: $32.100 +fees + taxes.
