Toy electric cars

Recently, I have been noticing more TOY versions of electric and fuel-efficient cars.

I think that's a good thing. It means we as a culture are starting to change what we think of as a "car".

The next generation is growing up with toy Pruis's and Tesla Roadsters. There's a good chance that some people born right now may NEVER drive a gas car.

Now whether that's by choice or because there's no gas left...... I suppose that's up to us.

Hey, did you hear that Tesla is working with Toyota on an EV? I thought it was going to be a new version of the RAV-4 EV, but it turns out they are making an electric version of the Toyota Crayola!



And lets not forget how cars have to transform into robots! Or at least robo-beasts! (That one is a Prius, in case you can't read the plates.)



Anyways, I have a longer post on my blog if you want to read it.
