I am a stay at home dad so walking is mostly out of the question with a 2 1/2 year old.

When the weather warms I will get a bike trailer for the toddler.

EV? Do you know how many gallons of gas I could buy for the $$$ used in making a low cost EV? Let's say gas was $4 a gallon again and I could build a EV for $4000, that 1000 gallons could be used to drive my Geo Metro at least 50,000 miles! This is not factoring in the slightly (?) higher electric bill.
