Look, I'm NOT AGAINST these new technologies, I just hate it when stupid freaking liberals blame republicans or oil companies for 'not allowing' alternative fueled vehicles to be produced. Its BS. The EV1 for example. Let's say I bought one. K. Its winter, so I need to turn on the heater. And its night time, so I turn on the lights. And I want to listen to the radio. Do you know how far I'd get? Like freaking NOWHERE. And how long does that beast take to recharge?! Bah.

And they are NOT fast:

Honda Insight 0-60 in 12.3 sec. ICK.

GM EV1? 9 seconds (http://www.automotive-technology.co...mev1/specs.html)

BLECH. Until alternatively fueled vehicles can COMPETE with internal combustion vehicles in PRICE, RELIABLITY, AND PERFORMANCE, screw 'em. The problem is NOT the fuel milage or emissions of the average automobile, the problem is SUVs, SEMIs, BUSES, and TWO STROKES. Did you know a lawnmower running for an hour puts out 8X the emissions of a new car?!

anyway.
