Frankly, I won’t miss dealing with OPEC and oil companies who jack prices every time the American economy starts to pick up the littlest bit and knock it back down again. I’ll probably keep one stick shift gas engined car around as a souvenir but it will spend all but the tiniest part of its life parked under a tree.
It is they that will not miss you, since they will both be around long after your are gone.

If we can just over come this one little detail electric cars will be all the rage. That little detail is the immutable laws of physicist physics, which render battery powered cars toys. They just don't work, and there's no reason to believe they will anytime in the near future.
Thousands upon thousands of people can fix automatic transmissions. Not a single one can make a battery capable of carrying it's own weight like a tank of gas can.
Your call...but save your money, lots of it, for the first time you have to replace those batteries...we’re talking thousands.
