The News

One Leaf (a rental being charged before work) and a couple of ICEs.

Combustion avenue.

Yes and no

Uninvited

Zapped

One of these...

Cars is not like the others.

Drive

Nissan Leaf test drive event. I finally drove my first all electric car! Could have been a little longer route in my opinion, but still fun to give it a try.

A wet avenue

Two interlopers and a Leaf

Plug-In Prius twins

The Leaf is gone but the Prius have taken over.

Lone Leaf (again)

Solo Leaf

One early parker.

Two again

A Leaf and a Prius

Early Afternoon on the Avenue

Off the Avenue

This Leaf is on Broadway.

Actually, I noticed there is an EcoDistricts summit here at PSU today, maybe the Leaf is here for that, but still...why not on the avenue??? I'll have to go out later and see if there are a larger than usual collection on EA.

Autumn Leaf

One

As you can see, one plug-in Prius was on the Avenue this morning to greet me.

Two Pair

Hey, I'm not liking the segregation, the Leafs hangin' at one end of the block and the Prius at the other end...why can't we all just get along???

Nothing to see here

Only EV this morning is the MAX. Am I getting to work too early?

2 wheelers

A scooter and bike are the lone early morning occupants of electric avenue.

Lonely again

Have to try and check back later to see if there are any users.

No charge

An empty electric avenue this morning.

Back again

Looks like at least one or two ICEs in the mix today. Wasn't able to look and see if any of the bikes were electric. I've yet to see an electric bike charging up. By my eyes it looks like 3 prius a Leaf and a couple if internal combustion.

Thursday

Here are a couple pics from this morning.

Return to spotting

Today I only saw one Leaf and one Prius on the avenue. They were right next to each other, I thought that was a sweet show of friendship.

Empty Avenue

No cars this morning.

i-Nvasion of the iMiEV

Mitsubishi carted about 8 of their i-MiEV cars down to Electric Avenue today for people to stare at. Funny, they also mixed in a few of their other (ICE) vehicles. One person I spoke to took that very cynically saying, "of course they mix in their 'gas guzzlers' as well to sell."

Still, nice to see another EV on the block. Too bad they're going to charge 30k for the things.

Drippy Tuesday 9/27/2011

3 plug-in Prius and 2 Leafs plugged in this morning. The most cars I've ever seen parked there on my way to work.
