I finally read this post today and I can't help but think of H. Ford's quote; "If I'd asked people what they wanted they would have said faster horses!". The time for EV's is here.
Speaking as a Horse Power Whore, I love the EV's acceleration. Not to mention their endless possibilities. As Epstein mentioned earlier, the day is coming that one could pull in your drive and take you or your kids wherever. No more looking for spots to go parking with your date. Just activate the auto-darkening windows and have at it.. No more fluid changes or gas fumes. I read comments about rolling blackouts and a Solar systems inability to meet demands at night or cloudy days. Why is no one looking at the potential of an EV to serve as an energy storage unit. If the sun is not available you could tap into your EV for emergency power to your home. Or people could sell some of that stored energy back to the utility companies during peak demand periods avoiding rolling black outs. Just because we don't have all the answers presently is not to say they will not come quickly during this transition. As my friend (Kevin) Rhody guy said, I'm not going to be here then. But as someone from a time not so long. I want to be part of the group that rolls up their sleeves and says "Hell yes we can do this. And we can do it better and faster than any other country in the world". Naysaying won't change anything but ones attitude. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
