It could still be a primary, or even an only vehicle, if your daily range is low enough, if you can plan a bit in advance and combine trips, and if you have access to a secondary vehicle source, such as a rental service or public trans. Most Americans could do it, if they wanted to (it's just so alien to them that they'd never consider it.
I'd do it in a heartbeat. As I've said, the Leaf will be my next ride, unless something better is offered when I'm ready to buy.
