Well maybe if you live in California where the temperature stays between 40 and 90 degrees, that might work.

I live in California. I WISH the temperature never went above 90! If you are so ignorant about your next door neighbor's climate, maybe you are also just totally ignorant on electric cars.

I drove a 1988 Honda CRX HF for 13 years. I got 210,000 miles out of it. It was not an electric car, nor a hybrid, and yet I got 45 mpg with that car. The Prius averages 41 mpg, so the mileage I got out of a non-electric car was better than that of a hybrid. Why? Because it was the size of a rollerskate. I didn't have to replace any $3000 batteries, but I had to spend thousands of dollars on chiropractic.

Like a typical Californian, you seem to have the attitude that everyone else should live the way you do. Drive your little pint-sized rollerskate, screw up your back up into little knots. Don't tell me I have to do the same thing.

And by the way, when it gets over 100 degrees in the inland valleys of California, it does not last for months on end - with the exception of Death Valley, where no one lives. Maybe YOU should learn a little more about YOUR neighbors.
