90% of the drivers don't drive anywhere near that reverend1...you are an anomaly or a long distance trucker
.
I wouldn't buy one because they are more than I would ever pay for a car but they are clearly not toys as they are all over the place here. Hell there are a lot of Leafs around here too and they only get about 80-100 miles in a charge. Gives you some idea of how much driving is typical for most people.
I think it's a great technology and shows that it CAN work rather than saying it can never work so why even try. Now if they get it to 500 miles it might be good bye to big oil and hello to cleaner air..especially around the refinery up north
