I am sorry because I love the idea of an electric car. I drive 30 miles one way to work, I actually work for the local power company and could recharge one at work. I drive a 91 Metro with an economy cam, +10 gear from 3-tech and a 3.79 final tranny. I am installing a/c to make my summer commute more comfortable. I am also installing an 89 xfi computer to this car to see if it helps. June - September 3200 miles average 52.4 mpg. not too bad for a car running E-10 gas. My car payment is so my wife can drive our 06 Navigator. Last trip to Reno got over 19 mpg. I can't justify a BIG car payment for a non-existant electric car.
