well thats me - actually i don't mind as i hope most all bugs will have been worked out by then. i figure a 2010 model year. hate to say this to all you "smarties": maybe something better will show up! (jeez - did i just say that - DOWN! - incoming!) like an electric smart. 70 mile range would work perfect for me - 60 mile commute with the ability to plug in at work! i'll use the honda element for longer trips/larger interior need trips and "the beast" (1 ton diesel van - 19.2 mpg last week) for mega needs like pullin the boat or camping! ok - let me have it!
p.s. - i'm getting a pure with little or no additions! i'd like a radio but i know they will try to sell me an over priced unit or try to talk me into a passion. i'll just get a cheap after market unit with mp3 input and good speakers then play the ipod and also listen to "conservative talk" am - ok now i'm ready for the spam!
