I know.. we are working on writing a grant to get it done.

Good Question. We are still in debate over it really. We bought the Leaf after the Prius. We traded in my wife's car when we got the Leaf, so we basically considered that her car. However, this conversation has come up about which would be the most economical. We still didn't have the level 2...

It's 40 miles 1 way with no charge station, and that is 40 miles extra after I have already driven 20 miles to my home campus.. But my house is "kind of" in-between. But that doesn't really do me any good. The swapping of the cars is plausible, but that still is a few miles out of the way to...

I own both a Leaf and a Plug-In Prius. I drive the Prius on a 20+ mile commute each way, and my wife has been driving the Leaf on her 6 mile each way commute. On the Prius I have been able to get about 100-104 mpg on my way to work on a full charge (20 miles). I get about 57 mpg on the way back...

Interesting.. How they were able to tie leased vehicles and green energy incentives into troubled assets, I'm not sure in TARP. That's very interesting indeed how TARP is involved in this. But I do know that the American Reinvestment Act also has provisions for the Tax Credit for Green Energy...

oops.. sorry.. it was early.. or maybe very late.. :)

TARP was not part of the stimulus. TARP was the bank bail out under Bush. The American Reinvestment ACT under President Obama was several months later which is a big part of what is funding this EV tax credit was meant for "individuals", not corporations. EVen the IRS See...

I don't care what the form says. The policy is just wrong. The incentive was to go to consumers.. not to corporations.. Wasn't that the intent of the stimulus? Toyota doesn't need any friggin stimulus or green energy incentives.. They make enough profits.. consumers need incentive to...

I'm sorry.. but the company that is taking a tax credit on something they are not making the tax payment on.. or even having full possession and use of the said vehicle is a horrible loop hole in the tax code. For those dealerships like Toyota to blatantly lie to their customers, even if...

Thanks for the quick reply.. and the welcome. I came into this thinking that they would take the Fed Tax credit. However,, I didn't sign anything stating that's what they would do which prompted me to ask the question. I will give the guys at Nissan a little education today about that bit...

I just leased a Leaf Yesterday and I'm kind of confused about something regarding the rebates. Upon leasing the car, I was given a "Nissan" rebate of $9775.00. When I asked the finance manager if that somehow intercepts my IRS tax credit he said "NO". He said any government tax incentives or...
