Rob Eshman, Leaf owner since June 2011

I wake up at 6. I get in my Leaf, crank the A/C, and drive to Circuit Works on Abbot Kinney. There’s a charging station at the Electric Lodge (solar!) so if I need a charge I plug in there. By the time I’m done, my Leaf is fully charged. At 8:30 am I head to the office in Koreatown, 13 miles away. No charging station there—are you listening Jamison Properties?? At 11: 30 I drive to a lunch meeting in Beverly Hills, A/C—and Howard Stern on Sirius Satellite Radio—both blasting. Back to the office at 1 pm. Head home on the freeway at 6. At 8 we drive to Santa Monica to see friends. We’re back home by 10 pm. I plug the Leaf in so it can charge overnight: by morning it’s ready to go. So am I.
