My diesel has a 14 gallon tank and gets an honest 53mpg on the highway...so a highway range of over 700 miles.When required it can be "recharged" in about 4 minutes at any one of 35,000 "recharging" stations coast-to-coast.
Why would I *possibly* consider an electric vehicle?????

What I have suggested them to be, is a second car in the family.
Most folks don’t commute further than 20 miles or so. They can use an electric to commute, and drive off-site too if they need. They can go to the supermarket or pick up other supplies. If it doesn’t make sense for a family, they should take a pass. If it does make sense do it.
Marketing them to replace cars with 300-500 mile ranges, was a losing proposition IMO.

Anything you plug to the wall with a socket is an appliance, NOT a car. I own a V8 20 gallon Jeep and I know I get around 60 + MPG but I dont care. Its just money.
