Nissan Leaf (Score: 3, Informative) by zenbi@pipedot.org on 2014-07-17 15:03 (#2HR) I have a Nissan Leaf that I use as my daily driver. I can go a respectable 70 miles per day around town on my normal 80% charge. Every night when I park it in the garage, I plug it into the standard 110V wall charger. Although I have the faster 220V charger, the charge time is never an issue as it charges overnight.Because I still own my previous gas powered vehicle, I've never tried going on a road trip where I have to rely on third party charging stations. Living in San Antonio, for example, I would have to stop twice to get to the coast - each stop being several hours.

Right tool for the right job then. It occurs to me: it's the Chromebook of cars. I don't mean that in a disrespectful way.
