yeah... and we get you don't like the new electric car startups. So why is that Mulholland?

nope....

didn't say that....

in fact said just the opposite....go back and read my post

my point is i don't plan to be an 'early adoptor' of a car that may or may not make it to the tune of $70 to $100K unless i just want to throw my cash at a potential 'toy'

i already have the toys i enjoy and they come from established auto makers (porsche) and they're quite fuel inefficient, (though not as bad as you might think, the GT2 got about 24 mph on my trip to tahoe) thank you very much....but no matter, if you have to ask 'how much'

you can't afford it

oh and btw, i've never bot a tahoe or an escalade or sequoia any other humongous SUV...i've bot the smaller versions for everyday errands and drive the porsches for 'fun'

so sue me

iow, i really DON'T care about the CA intricacies of special emissions or cafe standards...

i live in utah<gg>

and your analysis about *needing* the same tax *credits* to make electric cars viable is pure bullshit.

make a car people WANT to purchase, with the belief that the company will be around to service, and people will buy it...

i never had a f'ing tax credit for any single car i purchased in my entire life....and yet i have purchased many....

now 'splain that, twodoor?
