I am so glad that someone else finds this April date a little "crazy". I have read all at least ten posts from California to Texas and everyone sounded like this: "i am glad i am no longer pending and have a delivery month, yeah". Clearly as a college student, who doesn't own a home, doesn't make 100,000 a year, I don't drive a Prius, never owned a Nissan, and with the price point of the car I knew I would have to make some great sacrifice to own a Leaf. So i sold my other car to eliminate the rest of the car note and monthly insurance. I have been sharing a car with my mom since April of 2010 that was when I thought the car would be available in December 2010 or early 2011. I have put away car note and insurance every month since April, and when you have no car on the weekend you really don't spend any money, LOL that was a plus. I wonder how many cars are really on order out of the 20,000 reservations. I think if they would tell us your car is in the 4000-5000 production slot we would have some idea of why its taking so long to have our cars delivered. I spoke to my dealer yesterday and she said they had no further information, then sometime between last night and this morning the dashboard updated with a delivery date. Are the dealers really that much in the dark? That's if for the rant. Well the positive is I could have enough to pay out the three year lease between my savings, the $7500 credit applied to the lease, and I will avoid paying interest. I wish I could be more accepting like the other people who received April delivery dates, but at this point all I am praying for patients because I am still in love with the Leaf.
