Re: any advice on tire replacement?

For the 2700 miles I have on my Sailun eRange tires, experience has been good in terms of wet/dry grip as well as near ecopia level of efficiency. I plan do to a bit longer write up once the tires have seen some serious snow in a few months. The ecopias were not good in snow, so hoping for modestly ...

Re: My LEAF has moved on without us…

If you know anyone with electrical and electronic skills that would be willing to build a few prototypes with quality parts, I would definitely be interested. Even if it only could manage 35KW, it would still be very helpful.

Re: any advice on tire replacement?

I also found the ecopias to be very efficient; much better than the Michelins.

My Sailun eRange tires are close efficiency wise, though subjectively I believe they have better (summer) grip.

Re: My LEAF has moved on without us…

Yes i concur, as I test a wider number of evs on my business trips (when renting cars), I still find comfort when I come back to my Leaf (Plus). The Plus was only a mild adjustment from our original 2013 Leaf, which the whole family loved partly because it was so trend setting and unique in 2013. On...

I didn't think the 4K was eligible for private sale.

I just found out the station is under new mgmt (Loves). I have seen other Loves locations with ccs only, so I wrote then an note via their con...

Re: The battery replacement/buyback thread.

As much as I look at other EVs, if the 2024 Leaf had a different DC connector or adapter, I would consider it (don't need it)..mainly for the blue color version.
