    New 2016 SV - $23,200 - Good Deal?

    Story,,,, We already have a Leaf. Quite familiar with the cars, LeafSpy, etc., and I'm not quite looking for a new car, however ran across an aggressive dealer looking to sell, apparently at a loss, a 2016 SV for $23,200. I verified they are not including the federal credit in the price. So...

    Cabin filter orientation - factory incorrect?

    I've noticed on both my Leafs that the airflow orientation marker on the cabin air filter points towards the engine. However all the particles that are trapped in a dirty filter are coming from the engine side. Am I missing something? In any case I reversed the orientation in my vehicles...

    Leaf Spy and battery 12 volt readings

    Folks. I'm experiencing a dead 12V battery every few days, requiring a jump Start. I've noticed on my leaf spy pro app that while in motion my 12V fluctuates between 12.5 and 13.5V. Is this what others are seeing while car is in motion? I would expect 14 V.

    Battery 1 Yr Checkup Expectation

    I made my first 1 yr battery checkup appointment recently. When I picked up my they said it was complete, but did not present me with any report. I've read of folks getting 5 star reports however I received nothing. It makes me wonder if they did any work at all. What should I expect? Thx

    Oh the irony...

    Took my leaf in for the 5 star battery checkup, front suspension noise when turning in cold weather, PDM update and windshield nozzle adjustment. After driving green for a year, the loaner they gave me was a Yukon XL

    After 10,000 miles of EV ownership, my fuel bill is $230

    After 7 months of ownership of my 2013 SV, and 10,000 miles, I'm happy to say I only paid around $230 to fuel the car for that duration. I have a utility meter in my garage and it just rolled over 2000 kWh. 2000 kWH * 0.10 = $200. I'll add an additional 15% loss for charging efficiency...

    Stopped by a random dealer for a charge... oh boy..

    I was doing some errands in Chicago and was expectantly running low on energy. I wanted to charge either near a Starbucks where I can do some work or dealer lounge with wifi. I stopped by a particularly small dealer in the city and asked if they could charge it for a while. They informed me...
