300 miles is a far too limited range for me, and the electric cars are far too expensive. I dont know how well our power grid will hold up to thousands upon thousands of cars being charged all night and at random during the day. A lot of improvement will have to be made to make that a viable alternative. However they should keep up the development. Gasoline engines didn't take over in one day. I like the propane and hydrogen engines better right now. I would get one if it were available in a car more readily. I have a friend who has a a GMC diesel that has a propane injection system that is pretty impressive. He gets much more power and fuel economy. One more thing about those batteries there needs to be a plan to deal with those very toxic buggers when they go bad, because they go bad.


I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe
