I don’t care about the EXACT price.... Just to note that this entire article is based on an absolutely ridiculous error: presuming the price of gas is a fraction of what it realy is.

Elon Musk is crazy and this most recent notion of an industry group to lobby for banning gas-powered cars is downright foolish. But two crazies don’t make a sane mind. The Tesla Roadster was an extremely expensive car that did more damage to the environment than any car I can afford to drive, but it’s financing a whole new take on electric cars that WILL work.

Also stupid: the notion that because Teslas also require fuel, that they consume just as much carbon. That incremental unit of energy is going to be green; green energy is finally, after 50 years of lies, cheaper to create than carbon energy; even natural gas generates far less carbon than gasoline; 90 MPGe is still a lot better than 35 MPG (which would be great gas mileage for a sports car); Because lithium batteries don’t consume lithium, but are recyclable, there will be no shortage of Lithium as there are enough proven reserves for 4 billion cars and probably enough out there for 40 billion cars... the list goes on and on.
