I broke my remote while carrying it around in my pocket. The case looks fine and it powers on but it has a cracked screen and no longer functions. Please contact me via PM if you've got a spare remote that you'd like to sell. The original part is rather expensive. Pictures & video...

There's a thread on the MNL forums started by Tony Williams who drove from Baja California to British Colombia last year in his Nissan LEAF. This year the route will reverse and begin at the Canadian border. Anyone interested in attending can check out this page which has an event listing and...
