Technically the Tesla is a good car. The debate over electric vs internal combustion will not be settled by this kind of hyperventilating hype - on either side - but by technological progress towards serving customers needs.

I cannot see owning an electric car myself, absent vastly improved range and cost performance - but progress towards those goals is being made, and I would not try to predict where things will go in the future.

Both of you made far more reasonable statements than the extremists.

Want to know why the electrical car isn’t going to completely dominate by say, 2030? Because gas will still cost about $2 a gallon. If it were going to cost $8 a gallon, hell yeah, electrical cars would dominate. Why won’t gas cost $8 a gallon? Electrical cars.
