GE is going to make a fortune out of these charging stations. I suspect the high charge "Level one" stations burn out your battery faster.

One question I'd have is, what is it going to cost to "top off" a charge? Or to fully charge a battery?

What happens if one wants to take a side trip from Leavenworth over Blewett Pass? Ooops! No charging stations in Ellensburg or Cle Elum. Best call for a tow.

What a crock of s**t these electric cars are.

Any idea of what the charging stations will be using for electricity? Do people who have electric cars know that electricity uses Nuclear, Natural Gas, and or Coal as the power to produce electricity?

How much of those materials will the charging stations use, and worse yet, how much will it cost for a fill up?
