I will never, not ever, buy an electric or hybrid vehicle. If someone gave me one, I’d sell it immediately - for scrap, if necessary.

Golf cart for shopping around the house? Yes (expensive)

Family car or long distance travel? No
Long time to charge, batteries will cost more than depreciated car after few years.

Propane seems much better solution.

"I will never, not ever, buy an electric or hybrid vehicle. If someone gave me one, I’d sell it immediately - for scrap, if necessary."

Whether it's in 10 years or 20 years or 50 years or 100 years, fossil fuel gasoline will eventually become prohibitively expensive and we will need an alternative. Whether that's electric cars or something we don't even know about yet, that day will come. Today's automotive model will not last forever.

That's odd. Why?

I am more excited about the 707hp 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat.
