I'm certainly not supporting it. I'm just saying if 95% of your driving is within that range, it seems like a cheap alternative.

I think 100% electric is crazy talk, unless I can go 500-1000 miles on one charge.

Responses:

Yeah, the range would have to be huge for all-electric; alternatively, the charge time would have to be instantaneous. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 11:41 4

- Well, not necessarily instantaneous. But not much longer than a gas fillup. 5 minutes would be nice. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 9, 11:44 1
  - I'd settle for 30. If you're driving somewhere longer than 500 miles, you can stop for lunch/dinner and charge your car. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 9, 11:46
