SUPER GENIUS
I see VERY few (ligitimate)objections to the Tesla.

I'm all for better gas mileage cars. but if we all go to electric cars won't that drive up the demand for electric and pollution? Can our current electrical system handle that? Electric bills go through the roof?
Seems like it might create even worse and more expensive problems to fix and worry about. Are these good questions? hell I don't know. What say you?

Tesla's 'Bluestar' to be all-electric family car | Green Tech - CNET News
From the same technology base, Tesla intends to develop a series of vehicles including a minivan, coupe, and light pick-up truck which could be used in fleets, Straubel said.
Maybe just keep your boat in water where its supposed to be!
The Tesla is a good looking car. Although I can't imagine taken my family of 5 on vacation in that thing. Great drive around town car though.

Interesting that these EV cars can be fast as well.
YouTube - High Voltage? Chevy Volt Driven in Detroit
This is Edmunds eval on the Volt which is pretty impressive too.
The right wingers will ALWAYS find some fault with plug in electrics. Does it fit 20 people? Can it tow a semi truck trailer? Can it go 5,000 miles w/o a charge? Can it FLOAT? Will it make my penis larger? et al.
Well cold I hate to burst your bubble here *laughs* but I'm a republican and see nothing at all wrong with these EV cars and trucks in fact it's my belief that with this sort of technology in conjunction with the application of an overall energy plan that uses nuclear, wind, solar, domestic oil, clean coal, and basically every other energy source we have it will give this nation finally a ticket to tell OPEC goodbye. There are several things that are positive in this and one is the sheer number of jobs that such a plan would bring to this nation should it be allowed to come online. Still others, would be to take the power of funding away from these nations that don't like us so much.
