    After 8.5 years of driving and 95K miles

    I still have my LEAF that I bought in April of 2011. No issues to report except for battery degradation. See the images below. If I'm reading it correctly, I think I lost ~55% in 8.5 years. The car is still usable for the most part to pick up kids in school, kid's activities, etc. The max...

    Do you charge at work?

    My work just decided that they will charge $.65 per hour. Not bad, but still almost twice as much as tier 1 of PGE at home charging the LEAF at 3.3KW. Do you charge at work? If so, how much does your company charge per hour? I'm not really sure the reason why they can't charge per KW consumed...

    Why the Electric Car Is Doomed to Fail?

    So called "expert" thinks electric cars will fail due to resale value and that Better Place is the solution. He also thinks that everyone will charge in the morning so we need a smart grid. :roll: http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/daily-ticker/why-electric-car-doomed-fail-150050289.html"...

    I've never heard of such a car before. Are they talking about the Volt? :? http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2012/03/01/california-carpool-lanes-open-to-solo-drivers-of-green-vehicles/#comments" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

    EVSE at the local malls in the Bay Area?

    Anyone know if there are plans to install EVSEs in the Bay Area malls, south bay in particular like Oakridge, Valley Fair, Eastridge, etc. It seems the only mall with an EVSE is Stoneridge in Pleasanton and Gilroy outlets. I think malls are perfect for charging EVs. I will even accompany the...

    AudioBooks on iPod to LEAF's USB

    Ok, so I have this audiobook on my iPod that are separated by chapters(nice), but when I connect it to the LEAF, I only see three tracks that are 8 hrs long each(fail). What the heck? Is this an Apple problem or Nissan?

    iPod - anyway to fast forward or rewind?

    Hi, I have an iPod nano connected to the USB. It works fine, but I can't see a rewind(<<) or fast-forward(>>) button. I'm listening to an audio book that has 8 hrs per track and sometimes want to rewind but can't. Anyone? :roll: trent

    Send messages to LEAF?

    Hi, I was wondering if there is any way to send messages like phone numbers, address, contacts etc to the LEAF? I know there is the google maps way, but that is specific to directions. I suppose I can start my own RSS feeds and just keep updating it. Any ideas? trent

    I feel nauseous after driving the LEAF

    This is the first time for me driving a car that makes me feel nauseous. I thought it was something that I ate, but after a while I figured that it was the LEAF. I think it is a combination of the soft suspension, the rocking from side to side and the feeling of disconnect, lack of communication...

    Hello, has anyone tried this route before without charging? Basically, South San Jose to Capitola beach or Santa Cruz Boardwalk and back. It would be great to take the LEAF to the beach. 8-) http://tinyurl.com/3nw9sd5

    Anyone know if there is a charger around the USS Hornet Museum in Alameda? I'll be coming from San Jose and it is 50 miles away. If I can trickle charge in the museum, I can certainly get to a friend's house in Hayward on the way back home, which is 22 miles away and trickle charge some more...

    My electric bill went up $20 last month

    So, first full month(May) of owning the LEAF and we have traveled for ~1100 miles.

It doesn't add up because I also charge at work every...
