From your post:
“We had one in Demo service and it was driven many times 70 miles one way and back, 140 miles total without being recharged and it did just fine. Drove fine on just gas also.”
LOL.....”Drove fine on just gas also”
Come on, man. quit digging.
“Why would you even bring up the fact that a car with a gas engine can drive 140 miles, a singularly unimpressive feat even at the end of the 19th century”
Because apparently many people don’t know the difference between an electric vehicle and a hybrid. Even the folks who wrote the article.
