How much would you save driving Leaf?

Cowmeat had posted this thread earlier, but I accidentally nuked it... Sorry!

Anyway, Nissan has a little calculator to run through how much driving a Leaf would save you every year/month/week. Its kind of cool, and kind of funny for the hardcore super high mpg ecomodders out there.

Nissan LEAF® Electric Car | Savings Calculator

NOTE: click the recalculate using local amounts button to get a more accurate calculation. My gas price was a ridiculously low $2.33 by default.

I ran my Metro numbers through it at 50 mpg and I get a whopping $119 saved per year! Woohoo. As funny as that is, I'm still watching for a nice used i-MiEV to pick up.
