I am serious, how am I supposed to get around from state to state, fair to fair. A lot of us have large vehicles, multiple vehicles pulling trailers and what not, going from town to town, state to state. Just how am I supposed to get around with a plug in that goes 60 miles in a day? I need to go 400 miles in a day to get to the next spot.

Just how are we supposed to live out of a tiny tin car? HOw are we supposed to load our goods, pull food wagons, carry supplies with a car the size of a show-box?

These ijits just amaze me.

You can purchase a team of horses.

LOL! My point exactly on the last thread. Wait till they try to throw a ladder rack and a unit of plywood on one of these roller-skates. Or haul a family of 6 and a 4 horse trailer 600 miles.

City folks live in an entirely different world, it seems. They must think this stuff just happens with fairy dust or something...

“These ijits just amaze me.” ... I am real sure that I would say ‘amaze’ but it is appropriate. Most of the proponents of cars that have no power or range are pony-tailed metrosexuals that live in a hovel behind their candle store/factory. The sum total of their lives is layed out in a six mile circle around them ... free clinic, whole food store, coffee house, etc. They never venture out into the world taking instead the data from MSNBC as gospel. Their friends live as they do and believe as they do. They need nothing else and believe that anyone who desires more is the enemy. They preach tolerance but are anything but.

You see a lot of that attitude on Democrat Underachievers.

The function of the electric car will be to provide my son a ride to work. He commutes less than 10 miles, by himself and makes the trip twice a day. He theoretically could use the special electric vehicle for commuting and for the other short trips.

His wife has different needs. She has a child to haul around and needs room. She has an SUV that is mostly used for fairly short hauls but is available for coming to visit mee and traveling the 250 miles in relative comfort at speed with enough room for all the presents they bring.

If an inexpensive electric car were available, they would likely buy one, not two.

Meanwhile you and I need to have our trucks and vans for ordinary use and hauling all the stuff we need to move in our daily activities.

If it comes to fruition, the switch will be made for a secondary vehicle. Miss Green Advocate might not be able to have an all electric because she needs to travel long distances occasionally. She may be induced to rent a car for the trips.

There will be no electric cars without nuclear power. To advocate them is to advocate nucs.
