I do not trust big business (that includes our government) to bring dependable, cost effective EVs to market anytime soon. I believe that the oil companies, the automakers, and our government are all in this together, to help line the pockets of all 3 parties. I do not believe they have the consumer's best interest in mind, only how many billions in profits they may extract. The large automakers have the technology today to build a car that gets 75MPG (or more) on gas alone, but they don't have to, so they don't. They have the technology now to produce on a large scale, totally electric cars that outperform the EV1, and sell it at a price point of $30-40k - but again they don't. They are ''too'' efficient. They loose far too much revenue in extended contracts, service work, repairs, and replacing of simple part that wear out (too quickly if you ask me). All companies make their money somewhere. If any business is giving a great deal - they they are making their revenue somewhere else, that is a fact (or they will go into the red and eventually fold). </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #222; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #222; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">Something my psychology teacher taught me my junior year in high school was to &quot;follow the money&quot;.
