  • I love my Leaf. Only 129 miles for range and can take longer than 12 hours to charge in my garage but not having bought gas for almost 5 years has been great and it’s a joy to drive an electric car. I compared the Leaf to the Tesla Model 3 at the time and could find no reasons that the Leaf wasn’t a better use of my money. Tesla electric cars seem like more of a status symbol than an environmental or economic decision in today’s EV market.
