Despite that not having been a prerequisite for the proliferation of pricey trucks and SUVs, it’s been a pervasive topic in the world of cars. Well, it seems that can’t ever be argued again, as some dealers are positively giving electric cars away. A Nissan dealer in Colorado is offering fifteen brand new lease deals on Leaf S models advertised at zero money down and a ridiculously low 19 dollars per month!
