Well one commentor on the article is very optimistic:
“Electric is the wave of the future—coupled with photovoltaic roof panels to charge your car free with the sun forever free of OPEC and Big Oil !!!
By 2018 batteries will be being mass produced with 500 to 1000 mile range and that will KILL the gasoline car forever.”
‘Cause that’ll be the day when I die.
optimistic to the point of Insanity to think a roof panel can power a car.
He's another stupid liberal commentator! Several years ago, my liberal brother-in-law bet me $100 that electric cars were taking over and that gasoline cars would no longer be sold within 5 years. I'm a couple years away from collecting. I told him gasoline cars would be around another 100 years. No more efficient power source than gasoline exists for cars when cost is factored in. Even when throwing in 10 percent corn ethanol that drives up the cost and reduces efficiency.
