Found a 2011 Nissan Leaf for $5,900



I said i was going to try to find one, the problem is I only put aside $4,500 to buy one and I will only have about that much at least until the next gun show, which is in march, tax return time, or if I can get our pos VW sold.
Is that really how much they are worth?

Also does anyone know how much one of these can tow?
I know hitches are available, but haven't quite been able to find any info.

The car is 100 miles away but I'm not worried about getting it home, I already have the EV accessories every electric car owner will wish that they had some point, a diesel truck, car trailer and portable gen sets.

This particular car is a 2011, has 45k miles which seems like a lot.
It doesn't say that it comes with a level 2 charger, so I'm assuming it doesn't.
It would be the newest car I ever owned by a lot.

Edit, I ended up getting a better car with the same miles, better options and a warranty replaced battery for a little less. But I had to get it shipped from Illinois.
Most of the cars I was finding were from down south and had damaged or questionable drive batteries.



Stole that from here:
