New addition to our house that arrived about a month ago now - an all-electric Nissan Leaf! No gas ever. I've had my eye on this for the last year or so but hadn't pulled the trigger yet. However, I dropped by to check on one at the local deal and they gave us a crazy deal on a 2 year lease so we went for it. Based on what we had been spending on gas, it's almost like getting a free car monthly-payment-wise.
We now use it for all of our local running around and it's a great car. It's super quiet and very zippy -- lots of torque. If you're coming to the NE invitational, you'll see it.
Definitely worth a look if you don't have a super-long commute or, like us, do a ton of short trips around town.
The second photo is of the 240V charging unit we had put in for it.
