On Morning Joe this morning, Joe was going on and on about how we have to use alternative energy sources and that the president should order a 45 mpg CAFE. Most Americans don’t want to drive those little “Smart” cars. I know I don’t. This is a very good article. Thanks for posting.

I’ll drive an electric car if :

1) The price can be brought down to the level of an ordinary sedan (e.g. Toyota Camry ).

2) If the infrastructure is in place similar to our gas stations for me to refill the juice the car needs.

3) If I don’t have to wait 8 hours every day to recharge my car.

4) if the maintenance cost is similar to or less than the ordinary petrol driven car.

Give me that technology and I’ll consider the electric car but not until.

I do. I have. They're fun. But they won't haul my whole family. Whatever I use to do that, it's going to get a lot less than 45 mpg.
