Berta Claiborn, Leaf owner since March 2011

My husband, Bill and I have only one Leaf.  So the daily question, if we go out together is—Who’s driving?

Usually the question is answered by another question:  Who drove last?  or Who is it set for? or Who threw the key in their pocket? or by me with:  I am!

There is never a question of whether to drive the Leaf or not but rather how far is the destination(s) and where is the nearest charging station.

So we prepare for trips if they are in unknown territory and take very efficient routes.

Freeway traffic slow-downs make us happy because we are not wasting power but gaining in mileage since the slower you go the further you go.

So our Leaf driving days are cheery and relaxed.  Plus, we have a new love and appreciation for LA traffic jams.
