    No. Too many miles out in the middle of nowhere for me.

    Default Yes..

    ...and the fact is, eventually we'll all be buying electric cars.

    Cheers for electric cars !

    No way! Id buy a vehicle with a Briggs & Stratton in it first.

    No or at least not until the technology gets substantially better! Rather have a gas turbine.

    Don't be knocking Briggs & Stratton now. I happen to like that latter part of thier motors.

    Not as my only vehicle. I would also have to see what the cost of replacement batteries is. If 5 years down the line to sell it I would have to buy new batteries for more than the car will be worth then the resale value is zero and I wouldnt purchase one.

    I would buy one before I drove a Fred Flintstone car, but that's the only way I want one. At least until the tech gets much better.
