the cars are worth a damn, the problem is the caveman thinking of everyone and the resultant inability to accept change.
the same thinking was seen 100 years ago when gas vehicles first started appearing and replacing the horse and buggy..
oil won't last forever and the concept of alternative powered vehicles needs to grow, it is in the crawling stages now and in 20 years hopefully it will be walking and in 50 running.
I am not saying that electric is the way, there are several ideas out there, and as a consumer the general public gets to beta test the designs so they can be improved, no different than any other product brought to market.
