    End of Lease Strategies?

    Thanks to leafer007, I was able to negotiate what I think is a reasonable deal to purchase my 15 Leaf. I felt lucky to be able to get this done, considering the issues that have been reported here. I thought I'd contact the d(st)ealership that leased me the car, much to my surprise, they got...

    Leaf Spy Lite

    Hi: After having various Leaf's since 2012, I finally ordered the ELM327. I got it yesterday, today I am turning in 2nd Leaf, this one I've had for 36 months. I was curious, I knew that I had taken care of the battery, and I live in a climate that is favorable to battery life. So I just had to...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Anyway, the usual approach to keeping an upgraded EVSE is to look for a used OEM EVSE on Ebay. Thank you, I hadn't thought that used EVSE's would be available, and reasonably priced, with a vehicle so new to the consumer. This is a great find for what I want to accomplish.

    2016 Lease deals

    Here are a couple quotes that I received in WI on some 2016's. There are only a handful left (SV or SL models) here, I think 10. And a couple of those are leftover 2015 models. The pricing is substantial to upgrade to the 2016's. Silver 2016 SV (I don't see any other options listed, ie...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    I'm turning in my 13 at the end of May, I am negotiating with dealerships now for a replacement. So far, the best prices that I've gottten are on the remaining 2015's out there, that information belongs in another thread. But... Hypothetically, Nissan is offering a $500 waiver on excess...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Is anyone besides me, even remotely concerned about running around with their vehicles out of warranty? For being on the hook for mechanical failure on a relatively newer design and concept, seeing that these cars have only been around since 2011. A friend of mine is truly a master mechanic...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Thank you, and this forum, for this valuable information. If you search around on the NMAC website, on one screen, there is the option of extending, on another there isn't. In the packet of information that they send you, around 2 months before your lease expires, there isn't an option for...

    Sharing your chargingpoint? or not?

    I did it out of a sense of camaraderie. Same here. And good will. Mine has been listed for 1.5 years, I've only had one call. And this was during EAA, a huge aviation show in my home town. That man had a Tesla, I wish he would have charged here. I used one just a week ago to get my new...

    Lowest Charging Temperature

    Shut off? Like in not charge anymore..Or? Last winter it was wicked cold here, I posted in thread about cold and range. I remember traveling 18 miles at -22F without issues. And my G/F's Leaf sits outside full time and did take a charge through that cold spell. Admittedly slower, 'about' 2...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Well that certainly couldn't hurt, however I'm not sure how he could have known what my intentions were. The subject never came up. Regardless, for those that haven't had their final 'inspection', they are pretty generous with what they overlook. And the things that they can't, are VERY...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    I had mine done today, and it was equally painless. I had some minor damage, and the estimate to fix it was far less than what would cost at a body shop. They got me for one tire, still all total, less than the $500 'excess charge waiver' if you lease a new one. Now I just have to get the...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    I just got this letter today, my lease is up on 12-28-14. I had a 24 month lease, and mine is a 2012 from Wisconsin. The letter states "Act now to receive up to $4000 NMAC Lease Loyalty Cash when you lease a new Nissan. BUT in the fine print it is for the Armada only (it appears) It...

    How much mileage are you getting in this cold weather ?

    In the past 30 days, 4 have made it to a high temperature of higher than freezing. (32F) And only 14 have had low temperatures at night above 0 degrees. Ten of those were below -10F. I don't have a daily commute so, it's not an issue. My S/O either would have been cold,, or driving an ICE...

    How much mileage are you getting in this cold weather ?

    Another less than perfect data report from my significant other.... It was -23F this morning, she charge to (almost) 100%, then preheated for 2 hours. Battery percentage was 91% when she started driving, ended at 38%. 16.9 miles, 38.6 average MPH, and 2.2 miles per kWh. Started with 2...

    How much mileage are you getting in this cold weather ?

    Here is some imperfect data for whoever may benefit from it. I spent the night at Judy's last night, charged to 80% on L1, but it didn't quite make it all the way. I started preheating while the My2012 was still charging, outside temperature was -13F around 8:40AM. CarWings was showing 9 bars...

    How much mileage are you getting in this cold weather ?

    This is not my experience...we've had our share of arctic weather here in WI too. What my lady does for her trip to work is, charge her MY2013 to 100% on L1, but then after that a substantial amount (1-2 hours) of preheating activated by Carwings. While it is certainly reducing the 12th bar by...

    Leaf stops charging on L2 chargers

    Sorry, I'm late to the party, or at least to post this. Laurel (My2013) started developing the issues talked about on this thread. After reading this thread a couple weeks ago, I booked an appointment with a local Nissan dealer, sent him a link to this thread, and took her in for the update...
