Probably. It's a day that ends in Y and I'm human. Drove my bro-in-law's Leaf for 3 weeks while house sitting last year. Not a bad little car to drive at 3300lbs, and a bit of weight actually seemed to improve the highway ride vs. typical subcompact ICE econoboxes. Better than a CVT Corolla. Lots of pep in town, but handling was kinda meh, and range on that car is scary small with a 30kWh battery. Maybe range anxiety wears off or you get used to it, but it's hard to feel the freedom of the open road when one's canyon carving is limited to 40 or 50 miles total.

What attributes are important to you in a "driver's car?"
