I understand the electric cars and hybrids don't have enough power to pull a greasy string out of a duck's ass. I'll stick with my gas guzzling F150 until I am forced by the government to give it up.
I have nothing against electric cars. If people want to build and buy them, it's a free country. I do NOT approve of subsidies, and they should have to pay to responsibly deal with their polluting batteries when they toss them.

Put over 100,000 miles on a company Toyota Prius. Surprisingly peppy. Still disliked the car.

The major pollution occurs in the manufacturing process so I have read.
Good luck with the new place, it looks nice!
It came right down to the day. Future blog material. Shoe clerks! Grrrrr
I like the old school internal combustion gasoline engines. No, I don't like electric cars, diesel cars or rotary engine cars.
Give me pistons, cam shafts, gas and valves. I guess that rules out two stroke cars, too. Not that there are any out there any more. Now, two stroke motorcycles, that's a different story.
But electric? Uh uh.
I would consider electric if the range was better. I make many 300-400 mile trips.
Years in the car biz made me appreciate all vehicles.
