Is anyone driving Nissan LEAF for over 5 years?

I took delivery of my LEAF on 4/30/2011, almost five years ago. It has suited my usage pattern extremely well. (I drive about 8000 miles/year, well below the U.S. average.) I have not been to a gas station in five years! Also, I have spent almost zero dollars on maintenance. read more
