We are in agreement, Darcane (except on the highest mileage vehicle not being the primary vehicle). 
I'd love to replace the minivan with a plug-in hybrid or Tesla S/X. Since there is no 6+ seater plug in hybrid available, guess I'll have to settle for the Tesla Model X. Yep, right after I consult with the wife..... 
Try an i-MiEV, you'll have a blast. Matter of fact, you're welcome to try mine! Send a PM and I'll come on by.
