The technology is here right now for everything but long distance cruising. We need simple plug in cars now so that these losers can go back to selling sand to each other.

...sure a real car for the masses...@33k per copy only the bailed out big shots of wall street can afford one....last summer I saw an electric car development in Colorado got their web site from a friend and started to check it out, the car looked a lot like a VW bug and it was powered by gas/electric/propane....entry level was around 20k and top of the line was going to set you back about 70k....within weeks the site only offered the top line and weeks after that it was gone all together...I guess our need for economical fuel efficient cars depends on who's calling the shots...oil Co's...

There is the Tango.

It is like a Fortwo cut in half lengthwise.

There is the NMG from Myers Motors.

It was the Corbin Sparrow but is now made by Myers Motors and renamed the NmG.

He he. Going from the desert mullahs in the Middle East to the Socialist thugs in South America.

Thruth be told, what we need is domestic energy. Domestic nuclear, domestic coal, domestic oil.
