I am coming to the end of my 2-year lease of the 2016 Nissan Leaf I've been driving since early 2017:
I've enjoyed it well beyond the end of my 12000-miles-per year lease and have been getting a 15 cents per mile mileage charge since I passed 24000 miles ... several months ago. Also I have enough wear on 3 tires (I had to replace one of them after I found a screw in it) that I decided to just buy a certified used one from Vroom.com.
The 'new used car' is much the same as the old one:
Except is has only 2/3 of the range of the 2016: I think it's a 20 KwH battery versus the 30KwH in the 2016. This is plenty to get back and forth to work (15 miles for me), but on Monday I went from home to work then home (plugging in for 1.5 hours at home) then to Mercer Island to play bridge.
When I was done the car said I had 31 miles left, and since it's only about 21 miles home, I figured, "good to go". Not so! By the time I got home:
So: I absolutely am going to have to take advantage of the high-speed chargers that I've found over the past 2 years (mostly via Plugshare), on any day I'm doing much more than driving back and forth to work.
My experience with Vroom.com ... was not half bad! I mean: they are a car dealer and they did try to upsell me insurance I didn't need. But they arranged 100% financing with no hassle (over 7% interest since my credit score is down a bit, no surprise) ... They shipped it from Texas for $500 ... the car carrier driver was an immigrant with imperfect English who left the car at a bus stop out on a busy highway rather than the much quieter spot I thought I had picked out.
But overall, 8 out of 10 ... not even close to the worst car-buying experience I've had! On to the supercharger ...

Old cars that sit in one spot are a health and safety concern. They may cause hazardous chemicals to seep into the ground and eventually make their way into the water supply. This not only poses a threat to humans but to the ecosystem as a whole. Additionally, junk cars are often used for their metal, which reduces the pollution associated with mining and manufacturing new parts. Earn extra money by selling your junk car.

The rapid and deadly spread of coronavirus has caused us all to reassess our cleaning practices and, in many cases, take a more serious approach to disinfect high-traffic and high-touch surfaces. To prevent the spread of the virus, it’s wise to thoroughly clean any and all surfaces that you come in regular contact with. Because your vehicle is probably regularly used as a transport for people and materials from one location to another, it can be a hotbed for germs and viruses like COVID-19. This is especially true if you’re using a rental vehicle or use your vehicle to provide delivery or ride-hailing services.
