No I have not, but I heard they are very earth friendly. Someday more people will drive them.

I haven't yet. I believe there will be great improvements in the next ten years. Range is a big issue. I wonder if I will own an electric car in my lifetime. Do golf carts at the retirement community count ?

I haven't much. But I wonder how much electricity they use? Is it better to burn coal to charge the vehicle or burn gas to run it? I don't know the answer, just something I've pondered. If I had a windmill or solar panels, it may be worth it. Otherwise, I'd have to see my electrical bill.

I think electric cars are just a big hype. Now electricity bills will go up because more people will need it.
