I agree completely. I had a Leaf for an extended test drive this weekend & while I was in range of level 3 chargers I had no problems at all, but while I was in Nashville, TN there was nothing available but level 2 chargers. And while they are all over downtown, the 3.3kW charger is just SLOW.

My test drive confirmed to me that the Leaf is a great car, but that I'd be crazy not to wait 4 months for one that I could charge wile eating dinner while considerable charging was going on.

The local dealer has a 2011 & a 2012 in stock, which I feel sorry for them having to try to sell. Unless they cut someone an incredible deal on them and the driver doesn't plan to drive out of town I couldn't recommend the 3.3kW charger.

Side note, I think Ford is crazy not to put a level 3 charge port on their new EV.
