well tried to add this to the above post but ran out of time.... I see cars like the volt also run on gas and can go 380 miles. ok that would work but look, you're still buying gas also. they are not practical enough and still need to rely on gas. again, for me, not a viable option at this present time. I don't stay within a 30 mile radius of my home all the time. plus I'm a 100% truck guy. I don't buy cars because I always need a truck for stuff.
