Let's see you contribute something to society rather than recline on your chair and hurl insults?
You do a lot of that.

Must you insult innovators by calling their ideas "silly"?
If you could even SPELL I would have more respect for you.

Don't believe a word of it, and neither would you if you owned one.

It's the single most insulting feature of the Leaf.

I leased mine (Leaf) too but only because it was the only way to get the $7,500 tax "credit".

Agreed. PIP is a compliance car ... given Toyota's reputation, I am surprised they went this route. Shameful.

VERY, very good point, Xiaolong.

But, for many of us, our commute is greater than even a bike and safe bike routes are few and far between.

Look what happened to them anyway!

Get over it already? Ok, you're rude.

Randy ... all EV's except Tesla are UGLY.

What do you mean "if Nissan would throw the Leaf battery pack in there 11k Versa?" Do you mean their? Even then I don't know what you are talking about.

Thank you, Rick, for putting it so eloquently!!!

Comparing the EV range from 10 to 100, and forgive the analogy, the PIP is a one night stand. I mean, what round trips are 10 miles?

I can see people opting for Volt over Leaf due to the "comfort" of not worrying at all about range, but at the price tag?

For me, it's the Leaf. You make a simple commitment to go fossil fuel free and keep our $'s here. And buy a car that doesn't need BOTH EV and gas engines under the hood. And, after what Chevy did to the EV1, I'd never trust them again. (They thought we'd forgotten?)
