EV rapes gas. . .in all aspecs except for power density(its hard to compete batteries to fuel 6 pounds to several hundred)
theunchosen,hang on! One of a certain very large car companies' legal eagles once said that Americans had to be pushed to the "brink" before they would act.I think we're close.There's a great deal of consensus on big issues now that didn't exist ten years ago.With Lithium Ion technology(we have a lot of lithium) and renewable energy streaming on line,and especially in light of the global economic situation,and environmental concerns,I feel like we're close to that tipping point.I think plug-in EV will be a household word before long.
