Hi Lawrence,
You said "home" so I figure that you were coming from and going back to SF.
Taking 17 and 280 that is about 74 miles; going 101 is 70 miles but more 
traffic.
I see you are taking advantage of the increased battery capacity in your newer 
Leaf, the 2011 would probably not have made this trip...

Where did you charge in Santa Cruz, so you could make both trips starting from 
full charge?

Subject: [EVDL] Driving a Leaf from San Francisco to Santa Cruz and back.

I work as a musician as some of you know and I am part of the Freeway 
Philharmonic.  I have to play a choral concert in Santa Cruz this month.  I did 
my two ball routine which gives me on average 5miles per kw.  By the time I hit 
the summit of the Santa Cruz mountain I was down to 20 miles and 4 to 5 bars.  
When I got to Santa Cruz by coasting and using Eco drive and drive as braking I 
was up to 43 miles and 4 bars.  When driving home I was at 2 bars and 17 miles. 
 I account for the difference: driving home at night, against the wind & it was 
colder. But I accomplished a drive which I was told was impossible on one 
charge in either direction because of the mountain.  Myth busted.  Lawrence
