Very good points Greg, I'm sure that I will be having some answers in December. The Chevy Volt seems to be the only one that has any potential for use on long trips because the battery will run for about 40 miles and then the gas engine kicks in and charges the battery. So as long as you can get to a gas station you won't end up stranded with a dead battery. They are really pushing this technology here in the Detroit area. I think in a densely populated area the electric car concept will be fine but get out in the rural area and you probably won't be interested. We'll see.
