I wanted to get some input from everyone. I currently own a Leaf but really want to get my wife a iMiev. In fact if I actually had known that the iMiev existed I probably would already have one, cheaper and seems more designed to be an electric car not a electric car trying to act like a gas car. I still love my Leaf but the iMiev just seems more practical.
From trolling this forum there doesn't seem to be much issue with iMiEV but would you take the chance having to haul it 200 miles for warranty work (I do have a flat bed trailer). With the rebates and Fed rebate I am looking at about $12,000 for a brand new one so I am willing to have a little hassle to save a lot of $$$$. After the warranty runs out I hope that most fixes I can do myself.
Thanks for any input.
