Not really interested in purchasing an EV. The last time I rode in one was when I rode a Street Car in D.C. in the '50's. When the 'lectric cars can be charged on the go, I will definitely think about purchasing one. Not likely between today and when I am cremated. I have no problem with folks wanting to go 'lectric. I saw a golf cart that almost flew past at a record 110mph on a drag strip. It was battery powered. I still think that talking about how much horsepower a muscle car can put out is more interesting than how many amps you can get in your battery car. Just my opinion. I have no problem with burning fossil fuel until it's gone. The air today is cleaner than the air in the '50's in the main cities. I lived in one country where many converted their vehicles to burn natural gas. The modification to the cars cost about $300 for the kit. And they had filling stations around the city to fill up the tanks they kept in the trunk. Just a consideration if folks are wanting cleaner air.
