Agreed. 200+/- miles is pretty good when you never have to go to a gas station.

Had a different experience this morning. The tank was close to empty, used a CC and the pump automatically stopped at $50. That must be the max the gas stations use to authorize on credit cards.

$50 and not even a fill up. Wonder what it would have cost to charge an electric car overnight?

There was a really cool, zippy electric bike I demo'd that would go 20 miles on a charge at about 20 mph, which would have done the trick for all my local travel. It's NiMh batteries are in the hubs. The only problem was it cost $1500 bucks..

greenspeed.us

I may get one yet though..
