We just bought a Nissan Leaf

[Taverner]

Cool car, 100% electric, and goes 70-100 miles on a charge

Our Honda CRV died a horrible death, and we need two cars in this house

So....we got the leaf

Pros:

- Never buy gas again
- Costs $1.50 per day to charge
- Carpool Lane privileges
- All kinds of EV privileges for now (free parking in San Jose, etc)

Cons:

- Not American made
- Costs a lot
- No reserve tank of gas if you run out of juice

All in all, I like it

1. Cool!

My husband bought one as well...

It's sooooooooo quiet! Except when you back up...then it beeps.

Enjoy your ride!

2. Those things take off like monsters don't they?

3. They do!

It feels like something from LeMans!

4. Very nice.

I like seeing this technology expanding. It's the future; Captain Kirk wasn't putting JP5 in Enterprise, now was he???

Nah, not really. It just sounded funny.
